Sports Chats
- With -
Hal Eustace

The Valley Coaches and Officials
association, in session Tuesday eve
ming at Mercedes, decided to carry
the proposed all-Valley -post-season
grid contest before the next meet
ing Of the Valley Chamber Of Com
merce secretaries. The coaches had
sounded out their school officials
and found them favorable TO the
plan. The association formally
went on record as being In favor
Of the ~post-season game.
According TO the ideas advanced,
the coaches will tell the secretaries:
Here II is-We furnish the team
and coach-you furnish the finan-
ces and make arrangements" OF
course, the secretaries have net
been sounded out and how the post
season game will fare at their hands
is not known. However, Ben Ep-
stein. originator of the plan, de-
clares the chambers viii e the
matter in a favorable light. He
points to the publicity that would
come to the Valley as a result Of
the -post-season contest This In IT,
self. outside OF the local interest II
would create. would justify the
proposition, Epstein says.
President Forrest z. Grove will
appoint a committee of two OF three
coaches TO go before the s~ecretar-
les. 1t was suggested that this
committee be permanent and work
in conjunction with a committee OF
the secretaries All Of this looks a
bit hazy and distant in the future.
but at this time last year the
Brownsville -DePaul game was not
even a pipe dream. The PROPOSE
ton is up TO tee Valley secretaries.
A wise move was taken by the
coaches in deciding not TO seek an
intersectional game until they had
assurance that the Valley was be-
mind the move. This was brought
about by a suggestion from Bishop
Clements. Secretary-treasurer. It
would be a bit embarrassing to en-
ter into negotiations with a num-
Der O. teams and then not be able
to carry out ones own plan. When
the time is ripe, and II the secre-
tarieS see fit to back the PROPOSE
ton. leading elevens yer the state
will be sounded out on coming here
for the p~ost-season game
In our opinion. the state cham
pion would hardly consider the
proposition for they would have ev-
erything TO lose and nothing 70
gain. Abilene saw II that way last
year when 1t was proposed that she
meet the undefeated Brownsville
eleven. But there will be plenty
other good elevens that might wan.
the trip to the Valley. A strong
runner-up or the class B" champs
loom as possibilities.
Jealousy. a root OF much evil,
was approached openly by Coach
j. ID. Foster OF Edinburg. Foster
said this would doubtless prevail
when the selections for the ALL
Valley eleven wtae made. He urged
that the coaches and cities take on
O broader viewpoint and become
more broad-minded on this subject.
The selections would be made by
the coaches association. and all
should abide by this body's deci-
Sions.

past. again took a rap at the tin

RAYMONDvILLE. Sept. ia
With practice having been in pro-
gress for more than a week. the
Raymondville high school Bear Cats
with Coach Paul Tanksley at the
helm. are fast rounding into shape
and are giving promise Of furnish
ing stiff opposition for Valley teams
later in the season.
Twenty-eight men are reporting
for daily practice sessions and al
the present the principal weakness
seems to be the lack OF weight in
the line. but this apparent weakness
is partly nullified by the fact that
practically all of the men slated for
line positions r fast and shifty.
The line will be built around
Captain Beatty McCharen. the 165
pound center. who is rated as one
OF the best pivot men In the Valley
He Is playing his fourth year and
indications are that this season VIII
be his best. For the guard posi-
tons, Ballard, Bob McCharen and
Cisneros are strong contenders,
with the first two likely to G most
of the service according to present
indications.
Two Good Ends
At the tackle positions Buoy and
Durham seem to have the edge but
with Brook crowding them closely
and showing up well in practice,
they will have a hard time holding
their places. In Garcia and Evans
at the end positions. Tanksley has
two ends who are expected to be an
offensive threat as pass receivers
as well as aiding in stopping Of
fensive threats. Lee Cook is show
ing I'D well at this position but he
has not been out for practice long
enough for his ability to be correct
" measured. Tie line from end 10
end will likely average upwards OF
$50 pounds in weight.
Behind the line, the Bear Cats
have Shraeder. a veteran Of past
seasons al ludl 1Gl bdNhy aA4 WIN
az fullback. Both of these men are
fast and Cook bids fair to become
one OF the lest punters in the dis
trict this season. Most Of the pass
ing will probably be done by Marsh.
a recruit. who is also showing
much promise as a broken field
runner. Lindahl and Glover are
two others who r candidates LOT
backfield positions and they are
demonstrating that they have q lot
NJ ability to recommend them.

The musical careers of the two
youngsters are strikingly similar. Both
are pupils of Louis Persinger, dean of
San Francisco music teachers. both
won the Oscar We'll memorial Scholar
ship, goal of all young San Francisco
musicians, and both were born and
spent the first years Of their lives In
that Pacific Coast city.
HeSitant Introduction.
Taken hesitatingly to Mr. Persinger
three years ago for instruction, Roger
was placed in charge of Miss Beth
Lackey, pupil of MFR. Persinger at the
time. She became so attached to the
boy that she became legal guardian OF
him and his younger brother, Giorgio
C"Georgie" to his playmates), who is
a rather gifted violinist, too. Followed
a year of study and development.
Then. through the happy accident Of
being in Santa Barbara at the same
time, Miss Lackey and Roger became
acquainted with Mr.. and Mrs. Frederick
Bartlett, wealthy Chicagoans, who were
so impressed with Rogers ability that
