SCORPIONS TO
TANCLE With
BRONCS HERE
Collegians Hope For
Revenge of Defeat
Dished Up to Them
BY Edinburg Team

Bringing 20 a climax a week Of
football, the Edinburg junior college
Broncs will be in the city tomorrow
afternoon to play the local Junior
college Scorpions. This will be the
first time the Broncs will have play
ed before a Brownsville crowd and
they are coming with a reputation OF
having a crack squad.
Accompanied by the school band
OF t~hlrty-six pieces, and their pep
squad. called the "Razzers Club" be-
decked in red and blue striped sweat
ers and blue pants, they present n
very nifty appearance and will add a
lot Of color to the game which prom
Uses TO be holly contested despite the
overwhelming lashing given the Seor-
pions the first of the season by the
Broncs at Edinburg.
Coach Raymond Plato Of the local
college squad has put his men through
some hard PAGES for this contest, and
every man Is in excellent shape.
There are nineteen gridders on the
club, and practically every one OF
them will probably get a chance 70
play against the Hidalgo county col
lege boys.
IL is expected that the Scorpions
will present n passing and end run
ming attack, and fans may expect
an aerial game by the locals. There
are several good chunkers and receiv-
ers on the club.
Coach Foster of Edinburg has a
sweet bunch of backs, especially
in Dick Jamerson and McCauley, and
when a powerful line is added to
this. as they have, their club Is a
good one. They returned Sunday
from Kerrville where they lost TO the
Schreiner Institute team, ~ to 2.
Plato announces his starting line
up as follows: Backs, Rasher. Ce-
yanes, Roberts and Taber, with Rich
ardson, Sanders and Jones in reserve.
As a forward wall he will send
forth Shaefer. Cuellar. Conley, N.Y.
er, Aubrey, Horton and Harris. with
Baker, Garcia. Legs" Gamble, Wentz
and Brooks in reserve.
The locals also present a few stars
Of proven ability in Chick Horton.
Boy Myer, Rasher, and several 9TH
crs.
"We know we are doped to lose,
but we are going out there to win
Saturday" Chick Horton, crack line
man. said Thursday.
"And that is the prevalent spirit
among all the fellows" he says.
As an added incentive TO the locals
will be the fact that il will be the
first game in which they will have
played before a local audience. and
too they are out to avenge the defeat
Of several weeks ago.
The game will start at 3 o'clock.

Tor high Red Ants is grounding his
squad in the very essentials that
, will be Of inestimable value to the
boys as they graduate to the senior
squad. They are being taught the
very things a high school coach
should not have 10 teach when he
begins the seasons grind.
We have been informed that the
defeat of the Red Ants yesterday was
the only contest in which a junior
high school eleven Of the local school
has ever lost. But does it really
matter? The main thing in having
these junior high squads is to teach
the boys the ABC's Of football, as we
understand and regard il. II isn't
the winning or losing. but how are
these youngsters progressing that
counts in the long run. In that the
local juniors are making magnificent
progress under C~onnally.

are getting their guns oiled and

He gave out a statement in Austin

worked with"
Lumpkin, who several years ago
was a star on the Oak Cliff high
school football eleven OF Dallas, il
now a member Of Georgia Techs
squad-a regular. His play in the
game last Saturday between his club
and Notre Dame. was outstanding.
A story goes that when Lumpkin re-
ported for practice at Georgia Tech
he told the coaches he was a back
field man, fullback in particular.
Why we have more material in the
backfield than we can use now" he
was told. "No you haven't" Lump
kin replied. "You have only one
~fullback, now" He Is regarded rs
one OF the finest backs in the coun-
try today.
We are told by brother scribes Of
upstate papers, that Rice will pre-
sent a new lineup in their game to-
morrow against Texas. Here's hop
ing the new lineup has better luck.
On the Edinburg junior college
squad are a number of former Valley

Edinburg Junior college Broncs vs..
the Brownsville Junior college Scor-
pions. is the football morsel to be
served fandom tomorrow afternoon
on the local field. The game is
scheduled to get underway at 5
o'clock.
The action Of a number Of yourg
recalcitrants after the game in this
city yesterday between the Harlin-
gen junior high and Brownsville jun
Tor high football elevens, in congre-
eating about the cars in which the
visiting players were seated prepar-
ing to depart for home, and issuing
epithets. and in some cases hurting
rocks, cannot be condemned too Sc
verely.
Prompt action on the part Of Har-
bert Davenport, member of the local
school board in dispensing a crowd
Of these youngsters that had crowd
ed about one Of the Harlingen cars,
and during which hot words were
passed between the players and these
smart a%lecs". probably averted a
more disagreeable fracas.
Red Irvine, athletic director of the
local schools, was on top of the scene
in a minute and quelled these fell
lows. and in some cases the lecture
he gave should keep them in good
stead the rest of their lives if they
follow his wholesome advice. That's
no way 10 treat visitors" were the
last words We heard Mr.. Irvine pour
ing into the ears Of these fellows.
After watching the game yester-
day between Harlingen and Browns
Vile junior high school clubs, it be-
comes more apparent that Coach
Connally is badly in need of a conf
petent quarterback. Young Charlie
Baker is a good player, a good pas
ser, and pretty good line plunger,
and we believe he would develop into
a much better player IL the burden
Of field general was off his Shout
ders.
This young Jimmy Lawrence. quar-
terback of the Harlingen juniors
looks like a conner, and the senior
high of Harlingen has coming On a
star player. He is aggressive. fast
and seems TO possess football in
stinct. He played a whale of a game
here yesterday. A brother Of Lewis
Lawrence, for several years star
player on the Harlingen team.
.
The fine way in which young Glen
denning and Walter Washington
played their positions for the Red
Ants was c~ommendable. These two
boys never lost their heads, and
went about their business of playing
left halfback and guard, respectively,
in eommendable style.
Coach Webb Connally of the Red
Ants has worked like a Trojan in de-
v~eloping the club. Glendenning and
Washington are two boys who, il
they keep on improving, will make
valuable players on the senior high
team, when they reach that stage.
A movement is on foot where
by boxing bouts may be put on
at the skating rink at IT. Brown.
Fight fans are getting restless
and some good contests are in
store IL plans materialize now In
