Hard AT 1t
THE LOCAL coaching staff drove
the Scorpions hard In practice
Tuesday in preparation for the
tough assignment ahead. AS could
be expected. the Scorpions SUI
fered a let-dovn following their 40
2 victory over Harrington high when
McAllen high cancelled out on them.
They were put through a brisk
scrimmaee Tuesday IN order to have
them on an edge for the husky
soldiers.
BOY NEWMAN and G. r. Nelson,
quarter and center. respectively, are
on the injured list. Newman SUI
fered a turned ankle prior TO the
Harlingen game and has been I'M
able TO practice since. He played
only a couple OF minutes against
Harrington. In his absence Maurice
Pipkin will call signals for the
locals. c. r. hurt his back some
time ago and got back into harness
for the first time Tuesday. If his
injury does not improve. he will not
likely get into Fridays game. Billy
Summers. singing tackle. has been
missing from practice for the past
several DAYS. but will likely be back
in time for the game against the
big Army team.
NEXT WEEK the ~collegians we'll
play San Antonio Junior college
here and the following week Edin-
burg Junior college here also. After
q two week rest. they will then tie
into the Aggie freshmen.

THE Battle Of Grapefruit Will
likely become an annual affair in

year has not deferred the Valley
Coaches and Officials Association.
sponsor of the grid classic. In ses-
sion last night at La Feria, the
body named a committee to map out
a program. This committee is COM
posed of Dutch Rektorik of Har-
lingen. Cowboy Ogan Of McAllen
and Grady Reynolds OF San Benito.
II was the consensus of the gather
ing that a squad Of % would be
large enough TO work with.
THE PLAN is this: The members
of the association pick an ALL
Valley squad az the end OF the
playing season. The squad is then
brought to a central location and
coached for several weeks. The
team then plays a representative
team OF some other section. Last
wear the strong Cisco Loboes took

A WHOLE LOT should be learned
about the District Eight race this
Weekend In San Antonio. Robs-
town plays Harlandale. Bracken-
ridge plays Alamo Heights and
Corpus Christi plays Main Avenue
| there. The only title contender not
! seeing acton within the district Is
Austin. The Maroons will play
Temple. who Is being hailed as a
possible district champion in their
neck OF the woods. These games 90
a long way toward unraveling the
situation in District Eight.
