BULLDOGS WILL
PLAY AT HON {.
FOR four WEEKS.

| The Douglas high casaba tossers will
be home for the next four weeks of the
season ending February 1S with game
against Bisbee. This week the Bulldogs
entertain the Nogales high school
quintet as the main event and the
Bull Pups tangle with the strong Pata-
gonia aggregation. While the locals
are conceded more than an even break
with the visiting aggregations, the
games no doubt will be closely con-
tested, as the Nogales quintet is be-
coming fast moving team, holding
the Tucson five to a close score.
The games this week-e end will serve
to show who has the greatest chance
to win the southern championship
Bisbee holds the lead at the present
time with victories over Tucson, Doug
las and Wilcox. Nogales plays in
Bisbee Friday night of this week and
the Coffey machine will be minus The
services of such a galaxy of stars as
Medigovich, Horn, Kruger, Reynolds,
Brostrum and Kentro. All these six
players are ineligible for further play
ing owing to the eight-semester rule.
Hargis is the only letterman to form
the nucleus of new team.
Bisbee has a comfortable lead with
three victories and no defeats, but the
Bulldogs are close on their heels with
four victories and one defeat Douglas
has a better chance from now on in
the remaining games and should go
through the balance of the season with
a majority of victories
Barring injuries to players or team
slumps, the Douglas team should win
most of the games. Tucson looks much
stronger now than in former games
and although they lost an overtime
game to Bisbee Saturday night are
very much in the running with two
victories and two defeats.
Unless the dope bucket is upset again
the Douglas and Tucson teams should
make the greatest gain from now on
in the conference race.
Bisbee may prove a surprise and
come" back with team that will win
most of the remaining games. In such
case the championship may rest with
the Pumas.
A victory over Nogales Saturday
night and Nogales victory over Bis
bee on Friday will place the Bulldogs

this territory next week in return
games with Bsbee and Douglas will
be the hardest series of the season.
Douglas and Bisbee have both won
over the Tucson quintet, but Bisbee
lost six players and Douglas lost two
players, while Tucson has it's full
strength for these games Tucson will
gain valuable, experience this week
playing Gilbert, Mesa and FL Paso, so
on the following week the Badger

Most Remarkable Average

nURING the 1923 campaign,
- Grange, in seven games,
gained 1850 yards, his best per-
formance.
He was consistently good in
every game that season. His best
work was 251 yards against
Northwestern, playing only 10
minutes. His low mark was lao
yards in 80. minutes against Wis
consin. ~
While Grange gained more
yards in 1928 than "a. his aver
age was higher during the IA
season. That year he carried the
ball ia times and gained 1164
yards, a trifle better than 10
yards every time he tucked the
ball under his arm. $ -
No doubt there have been and
will be better halfbacks than
"Red" Grange, but it is a certainty
his grid deeds will live as long
as the game is played. = r-~r-

Had Two Big Years
TN the same mail came another
letter from supporter Of
Grange, asking that l reproduce
the achievements of "Red" on the
gridiron in 1923 and 1924. It
was in those two years that
Grange thrilled the west in almost
every game he played.
Going over my records | find
that in 1924 Grange gained 1854
yards and made 1S touchdowns
for Illinois.
His greatest performance was
against Michigan, when he gained
the almost unbelievable total of
402 yards. He also went pretty
we'll against Chicago, gaining an
even 800 yards.
Had he not been stopped to
whisper in the Minnesota game,
when the Illinois line failed to
hold for him, Grange gaining only
Sc yards, he would have topped
his remarkable performance of
1923.

80 years old. His body was not founo

Ahsllt Oranges Ability

Ahelit Oranges Ability
WHILE football is now more or
less passe, the argument as to
how great player Red" Grange
really was continues.
It is possible to offer arguments
pro and con as to Oranges true
worth, but there is no denying
that he is the most sensational
performer the gridiron has pro-
duced in the last 10 years if not
more
There is a decided line of dis
tinction between sensational and
great. In sense, Grange pos
sessed both qualities to a marked
degree.
Recently Glenn Warner, famous
Stanford coach, in naming his all
time grid team, didn't give Grange
much consideration. Said he was
mighty good but there were a
number Of other halfbacks he
rated superior to Red"
Any time anyone takes the
deeds of Red" Grange to task
half dozen self-appointed sup
porters come forth in his defense,
In Defense of "Red"
GGTF the Big Ten has produced "a
better halfback than Grange
in the last 10 years I wish some
one would name him." writes
Illini 1919.
II have been watching Big Ten
football for a score of, years,
played it myself, and to my way
of thinking Red Grange. Gipp
of Notre Dame excepted, is as
good g halfback as the west has
seen in years.
"Detractors of Grange insist he
was poor defensive player.
Coach Zuppke once answered that
question for all time, I thought,
by stating that it was ridiculous
to insist on defensive play from
a man who was a touchdown
threat any time he got his hands
on the ball
Grange could play a good de-
tensive game. Any time as safety

Huge waves, lashed up by a sudden

Half a dozen fishing boats were
caught in the storm. They capsized
when struck by waves which were
described as being from 6 to 10

before sinking, Larsen whispered
feebly: "Thanks, old man. but Ill
have to go down. Try to save your
self" Jensen managed to stay
afloat for few moments until an
other rescue boat arrived. The bodies
of the drowned were not recovered
last night.
