HUBBERS SHIFT LINEUP,
RELEASE BROOKS a BRiSCOE

Some radical changes have been
made In the Huber lineup since
the last series at home. Briscoe
has been released, and by a deal
closed Thursday between Ranger
and Lubbock, we now have one Of
the best shortstops in the West Tex
as League In the person Of Jimmy
Flagg, former manager Of the Ran
ger Club. He was released BY the
Nitros and signed by the Hubbers,
and In like manner Brooks ives re-
leased by the locals and signed by
Ranger. Flagg reported TO the
Hubbers Friday in the opening game
with the San Angelo Bronchos. Out
side of being one Of the best short
stops in the league, he is hitting up
around the top. and is going TO be
a valuable asset TO the club.
We were advised by Skipper Al
len Thursday night before he left
here that Jack York, who was with
the club last year at Ballenger, and
played the first half Of the season
in the T. & N. O. League, was to
join them at San Angelo Friday in
the opening game. He will work
around the initial sack, Speegle will
in all probability be sent to the out
err rim, and Earnie will be pulled
in to second. York will bring a
"Southpaw" pitcher with him, but
it is unknown at this time who he

WILSON Of PENN STATE
IS VERSATILE HALFBACK

STATE COLLEGE. Pa. October 19.-
When Harry Wilson, an unknown
youngster. jumped into the Penn State
lineup about the middle of the Harvard
game last year and proceeded to tear
the crimson line to ShredS, il was Dre-
dictod that he would develop into one
of the outstanding stars of the gridiron
That prediction is certainly coming
true.
Wilson was the only one of Bezdek's
veteran backfield stars to return this
fall. and naturally he has been forced
to steady the entire backfield combina-
ton. Despite the handicap of playing
with inexperienced backs who are only
now beginning to master the science of
clever interference. Wilson has smash
ed his way to recognition in the early
games this fall.
I Gaining ground for Penn State on
every play, the chunky halfback now
leads the entire eastern field and grid
stars in scoring. with eight touchdowns
and one extra point to his credit.
Wilson can do everything that is re-
quired of a good halfback. He can give
interference, throw forward passes.
tackle and knock down opposing passes
but, above all. he can run with the ball
He goes through the smallest opening
like rifle bullet and once past the line
OF scrimmage: he is about as easy TO
tackle as an express train
Despite his great showing in the early
games. Wilson possesses one other
characteristic that stamps him as a
star Of the first magnitude. and that is;
his ability to rise to great heights in
crucial games when the going is tough
