Edlnburg, Nov. l9-With nearly
every business establishment in the
city closed. Valley fans began pour
ing into Edinburg Tuesday noon for
the grid classic between the Junior
college Broncs and the Schretner
Institute Mountaineers.
A tense atmosphere surrounded
the city and Valleyites had a hunch
that the Broncs were going to make
a whale Of a showing, despite the
fact that the dope pointed toward
a 40-point victory for the visitors.
Coach j. ID. Foster has keyed his
Broncs up to the limit, for he con-

Another scrap that may have
bearing on the Valley champion
ship chase. is the one scheduled
between Harlingen ana Ia Feria.
The Cardinals practically have the
title sacked up and on the shelf.
But If the ~underdog Cavaliers were
to come through to a win, it would
put a decidedly different complex
Ion upon things. La Feria has suf-
fered only n defeat this season
and that was at the hands Of
Grady Reynolds rising San Benito
Greyhounds. The only chance the
Cavaliers have is to catch the Card
inals in the we'll known lethargy
caused by over-confidence. How
ever. after the Harlingen's TO
nightmare against the lowly Edin-
burg Bobcats, this is hardly within
the realm Of possibility. Coach

 No. I'm to manage the club" was his answer to the natural question. But I could either play third or second base if occasion arose." The hotel lobby legion. however. will keep a weather eye on the position held last year by the. vet. Marty McManus.
