GRID PROTEST
ONSYLVESTER
Local School Record
Proves Eligibility Of
Eagle Star Not In
Question.

No formal protest Of the eligibilI-
ty OF john Sylvester. Brownsville
high end. had been filed with Supt.
II. II. Hutto of Harlandale (San
Antonio). chairman Of the district
interscholastic committee, up until
Saturday evening. despite the fact
that Main avenue tSan Antonio)
and Austin high officials served
warning prior TO the Breckenridge
game Friday that they would be
filed.
If a protest is filed, the case will
be ruled upon by the district COM
mittee from whose decision there
can be no appeal. The district
committee holds complete sway un-
til the district champions are de-
termined. Then, II any question
comes up, It Is ruled upon by Roy
B. Henderson. director Of the inter-
scholastic league with offices at
Austin.
Scoff at Report
The district committee i8 COM
posed Of one representative from
each member school. Breckenridge,
Main Avenue. Harlandale. Alamo
heights, Austin, Laredo, Robstown,
Corpus Christi and Brownsville are
represented on the committee. The
schools which file protests and the
one under fire have no vote.
School officials and fans here
have scotfed at the idea that Syl-
vester is ineligible, declaring that
he Is now playing his second year,
and not his fifth as Main and Aus
tin said they had evidence TO prove.
Sylvester was mentioned frequently
last season for his first year show
ing In press reports.
Friday Sylvester was not slated
to start due to an injured leg, but
when the visitors served their
warning, Coach Fessenden imme-
diately put him into the lineup,
50 strong was his conviction that
Sylvester Is eligible.
SyIvester's Record
Robin Pate. former Brownsville
junior high coach under whom
Sylvester played, says the follow
ing Is SylvesterS record:
Played in 1925 on the Junior high
team when he was in the seventh
grade. This would not count on
his high school record. Suffered
an injury TO his right elbow and
wrist that kept him out In 1926 and
'27. Played regular with high
school in '28. and Is playing now.
This would plainly give Sylvester
two more years TO compete.
In 1926-l927 Fred Sylvester, Johns
younger brother. played at center
and guard on the junior high elev-
en- and on various Boy Scout teams.
Fred was in the sixth grade at that
time.
Brownsville high school authori-
ties state they have checked and
re-checked the Eagles and that they
are all eligible.
