The Brownsville high school
Eagles begin doing their stuff at =
D. m. Monday on the grassy ex-
panse known as Tucker field. The
boys will be put through a light
workout to timber up their mus
cles. It Is probable that about %
bows will answer Coach Douglas
Fessenden's first call to pigskkin
toys. The remainder. expected 10

drift in as school begins. Monday
may be the first formal practice
Of the season, but 1t will not in
reality be the first workout. The
players have been gathering in
clumps and tossing the ball around
for the past several weeks. Some OF
the squadsmen are In fair condi-
ton already.
Saturday afternoon Bill Cabler.
Jack Todd and Robert O'Bryan dis
pored themselves on Tucker field.
They whipped the inflated pigskin
around In fine style and that
short-wind which usually follows
the summer lay-off was not in evil
dance. Todd is considerable huS-
kier than he was last year and
GEMS to be faster on his feet. He's
going to make an excellent piece OF
material for the backkfield. II 1t
were not for the galaxy Of back
field stars already on hand. Jack
probably would be a regular start
er. And that's not saying he won't.
The Eagle ball toters are as fol-
lows: Barnhart, Samano. Grove.
Newman. Perez. Cabler, Todd, Con-
zales and perhaps a few others.
There's plenty OF power in any COM
bination one would care to pick
from them. Barnhart, captain, tops
the list. He weighs about IT'S, and
Is extremely fast on his feet. At
fullback. he lead all Valley scorers
last year. plunging his way con-
sistently for five-yard gains when
ever called upon. His bad wrist has
been operated on and he bids fair
TO become an honest-to-gQodness
triple threat performer. Evidenc-
ing that his wrist has recovered. he
passed consistently for 40 wards into
a wind recently. Big Dan" will
probably share booting duties with
Samapo.
Newman, one OF the best. II not
the best quarter ever to perform in
the spaneles of the locals. Is back.
huskier. and about 2-5 OF a second
, faster on a hundred yards. Boy"
as he Is known to the squad, spent
the summer at a Kerrville camp.
He should gain many stripes during
| the season. His passing Is said TO be
more accurate-but We couldn't see
anything wrong with I last season.
Samano. Grove and Cabler should
turn in outstanding work. The
first Is unusually fast for his size.
He weighs around the 200-pound
mark and not an ounce of 1t is fat.
He's all muscle and bone. Grove has
been moved from end to the back
field. He will probably be used In
sweeping PLAYS IS he is a speed
merchant. Carroll showd up well
in the spring training camp. Cabler
he's the boy the fans kept crying
for last year-will be In there in
full blast. Bill Is rated one Of the
best defensive backs operating In
this neck O. the woods.
Taken as a whole the Brownsville
team will be surprisingly fast and
big. Every man playing in the back
