sir attack was hurled at the San Be
3{aito Greyhounds by the McAllen
|uildoEs yesterday afternoon, COM
ftely b~ewildering the locals, and
Fnding the Greyhounds down in de-
fe<t, 80 10 Ii, before a crowd esti-
= mated al two thousand spectators,
who surrounded the field.
Coach Dykes Bulldogs opened with
a passing attack soon after the game
started. II didn't bring results IN
the first quarter, but in the second
quarter II was good for three touch
downs, and the first half ended with
MeAilen leading by a score OF 70 TO
O.
Some Of the passes hurled by the
Bulldogs and completed were good
for 10 20. 80, 40 and so yards az
times. Cara. who hurled most OF
passes. vas very accurate, throwing
q spiraling ball about ten feet above
the heads Of the players.
San Benito stopped their running
attack, and in turn turned on them
for several long gains By end runs.
In the third quarter San Benito
made her first touchdown on line
plunges, and in the fourth quarter,
Allen Carter intercepted a forward
pass and ran 81 yards to a touch
down. In both instances the Grey
bounds made the extra points by
kicks from placement.
The third and fourth quarters saw
the Bulldogs score mount to ~.
A passing combination OF CARA
10 Overstreet, or Cara to Ramsey,
interpreted with an occasional pass
from Allen to Ramsey, that caused
the downfall Of the G~reyhounds, who
could not stop the bewildering air
attack. IL was the forward passing
spectacle Of q team that on yesterday
afternoon had the spectators thrilled
and left them still wondering how
such an attack from the air could be
so beautifully executed by high
school boys.
A short pass directly over the line,
q triple pass in the baekfield, n
then a long pass into the waiting
arms, many Of which were caught
with q Bulldog back TO the San Be-
mite players.
kpykes' formation for these passes
tsre hard to detect by the Grey
hounds, as time and again an n
run seemed the play. and a pass
would result.
The Hidalgo county champs show
eli Valley fandom why they are IN
the race for Valley honors. True,
the San Benito eleven seemed slow
in comparison to the visiting Bull
dogs. and played a more or less list
less game. the McAllen crew showed
to advantage in every instance.
Their backs are fast and their
line held and gave the passers plen-
