RABBITS DIsoRGANiZING
Hunting is a fine sport.

Hunting Is me sport.
 It calls for much effort on the part of both hunter and the hunted, one to secure the game the other to keep from becoming game.
 The hunting epidemic seems to have struck Seward strong; too strong to suit the Gateway organization.
 In commenting upon the hunting fever it can be said that within the past three weeks nearly every boy and young man in town has been tried out as carriers for this family journal, with the inevitable result that just as soon as fine day comes along we are minus carrier, the subscribers are minus their paper and hob is to play, all because those on whom the Gate way relies to place the pape" at the subscribers door wants to go hunting or some other thing in mid-week-and without provision for taking care of their patrons. Soon it will be matter for the staff of the paper to act as carriers, as well as writing and setting up the stories and running th~~- -'' on the press, if the present call to the woods keeps on.

Brownsville, Mercedes and San Ben
ito loom up as the possible pennant con-
tenders in the Valley as Indicated by
the games Friday. in which these three
teams emerged as the only undcfcatcd
elevcns in the Valley. They are also
about evenly matched. Results Friday
were:
Brownsville 81. Edinburg Q.
San Bcnito -. Weslaco 0.
Mercedes rs, Donna q.
McAllcn 10. HarlinGen O.
The defeat of Harlingen by McAllcn
eliminates the Junction City eleven from
any chances at the pcnnant. as McAllcn
was defeated by Brownsville and the
latter team is therefore stronger than
Harlingen. IL dope counts. The large
score which San Benito piled up against
Wcslaco can be looked az frim a differ
ent angle also. Harlingen defeated Wcs-
laco in the opening game Of the season
by score Of % to o. McAllcn defeated
HarlinHen Friday i3 to q. and Browns

facts 1t is evident that Wcslaco has
a weak team.
On the other hand San Bcnito cannot
be underrated. Their second team did
most Of the playing against Wcslaco,
and first string team will undoubtedly
prove a hard team for any other eleven
in the Valley.
Brownsvilic's football hopes lie in a
well rounded team. working as a unit.
There Is probably not better backfield
in the Valley than Brownsville has.
Every man in the backficld is a valuable
player. and for consistent ground gain

The line has shown much improve
