VETERANS ARE
OUT OF LINEUP
Green Squad Likely To Be
Built Up Around
Adamson
Especial to The Herald

SAN BENITO, aug. 3l.-A new
coach. ana a new team.
This Is practically the lineup in
the way of football for San Benito.
The team Of last year. which in
mid season looked as good as any
thing else in the Valley, and which
on paper continued to look SO. is
gone with the exception Of lhree CT
four regulars, and several substi-
tutes.
The new coach, Grady Reynolds,
who will arrive here IN a few days,
will have TO build up a San Be-
nito team out OF light ami mex
perienced men. and prospects for
the season are not encouraging.
Backfield Strong
OF the famous backfield Of last
year, which shattered everything In
its path until It met the charging
line Of the Brownsville Eagles. only
two r back-Bui Adamson. quar-
terback: and A. Carte halfback.
The flaxen-haired Jamie Dodson,
who carried ON his hrawny shoul-
ders a large part OF the attack and
defense of the team last year. Is
gone. With him are gone the two
fast end-runners Of the last year
team, Dale Horkman, and Earl
Welch.
These five men were conceded as
being the equal Of almost any high
school backfield IN Texas, Judging
each man separately.
Adamson Star
Around Adamson the coach is
expected 70 build his backfield and
much of his team. AdamSon Is a
fast broken field runner. and a
heady quarterback. and viii have
the advantage OF another season ii
experience. Carter was the steadi-
est man on the team last year in
plugging the line for short gains.
and will fill his old post, In all prob
ability.
The problem Of filling the other
two places Is one the coach must
work out. He has Smith, a substi-
tute OF last year. and may use Pace
or some other man out of the line.
One or two men on the junior high
team last year who looked promis-
ing have become ineligible, and his
source Of material from that field
Is cut off.
The line is even harder hit than
the backfieId. From end to end the
old line is gone, with the me ex-
ception of Pace at end. u. Carter
at center, Todd and Zumwalt al
guards; Brooks and McWiilsams at
tackles; and Ammons and Brady at
ends n all gone.
Adams, who played center part OF
the time last year, will be back with
the team. and promises to be a reg
ular. The task of filling in the
remainder of the line IS : lother job
the new each faces. with most OF
the prospects very light, and mex
pertsnced men.
First practice is expected to start
early next VIC

1t is believed that Lloyd Helton
established an American cupboard
record SC the Point Isabel regatta
when he negotiated the five mile
class B division II, race at an av-
erage speed Of 37.37 miles pei hour.
The record was formerly held by
Goodlow Of Galveston who made
the distance at 36.49 miles an hour.
These things have to be taken
through headquarters with the Gus
tomary red tape. However. II
wouldn't at all surprise us to hear
Helton's mark will stand as me
best made III America.
The newsreel boys were OH hand
at the Regatta. Pictures were OBJ

say that Bob Sexton, in Half Pint.
was leading III The race shown. Bob
says it's wonderful the way they
can perform tricks with those cam

What the Brownsville High En-
giles now lack is one good guard.
They lost only three men last year
Two guards and a halfback. WITH
a squad OF so expected, and a num-
per OF good men who were ineliQi-
Die last year on the roster, the hacx
position and oue guard have rae
tically been filled. 1t is possible
that either Barney Moore or Har-
bert Davenport will fill this posi-
ton.
This Is what the Eagles look ike
at present: Fullbacks. Barnhart.
and Samano; quarters. Newman
and Gonzales; halves, Todd Grove
rerez and Cabler; ends, Sylvester

Cortez: guards. Summers and other
post undecided: center O'Bryan.
OF course the seasons not started
yet and there l. ample time for
