STEERS GET
SET FOR OWLS

AUSTIN, Oct. 23.-Overconfid-
ence their greatest worry, Texas
LonghOrn coaches are planning this
week how to overcome the Rice
sophomores in Houston Saturday.
in the first conference start Of
the season for the Orange. On
paper. the Longhorns are far more
powerful than the Owls and should
the two teams meet under normal
conditions. the Texas coaches would
have better than an even chance
to come out ahead. but that would
be forgetting II or two important
factors that might contribute to a
surprist victory for the Owls.
For one thing. the Longhorns are
due 10 suffer a let down after their
week of tense preparation for the
Oklahoma Sooners and their hard
game Of next week. the Texas fol-
lowers point out, If there is a let
down. the Owls will be in a per-
feet condition TO take advantage
or ~. for they will be playing in
their own low-temperature stadium.
and will be backed by a huge
Houston crowd yelling for a victory
over Texas. The Owls apparently
have lived with but one aim in
mind since last years spring train
ing, and that is TO surprise one or
two OF the favorites in the confer
ence race this year. and Texas will
offer the first chance for the full
filment OF that dream.
Rice Said Good
c j. Shorty" Anderson, Texas
scout who has been following Rice
this year. has a high opinion OF
Meagher's sophomores. and came
back from Arkansas last week with
his own ideas as to why the PORK
ers were able to gain a victory. The
Owls, according to Anderson. would
have won easily enough on a Hous-
ton gridiron, but found the COM
bined atmospheric conditions and
home crowd Of the Porkers to-
much for q group OF inexperienced
sophomores 70 overcome.
Littlefield Monday began TO work
his team with the idea Of overcom-
ing the many fumbles and penalties
that marred the Longhorns' play
against the Sooners. Time after
time, a Longhorn was caught hold
ing. was offside or fumbled. and
chances to carry a drive through
to a touchdown were lost. II wa:
only after the Sooners were
numbed by the constant pounding
of the heavier Steers. and their de-
Tense ruined by a long string Of
substitutions. that Texas was able
10 score. Littlefield Is familiar
however. with the better physical
condition Of the Rice players. and
with the long list OF capable reserves
that Meagher has at his disposal
and Is not basing his main hope
for this weekend onthe wearing
down ability OF his team.
Loan soil prevails In the celery
territory Of southern California.

TIGERS ARE
HERE TODAY
Locals Have High Hopes
OF Winning First Game
Between Cities

A husky crew Of Laredo high
Tigers arrived here Thursday noon
in preparation for their battle with
the Brownsville high school Scream
ing Eagles at 3 p. m Friday on
Tucker field. Coach DeCamera
brought a squad Of IS men here
and they were followed by a smat-
terinl of Laredo fans.
The Screaming Eagles tapered off
training Wednesday afternoon,
showing the best form of the year.
The boys started the season a light
and inexperienced crew. They were
held to a scoreless tie by Mercedes
AID fell before Corpus Christi af-
ter a staunch stand. With that ex-
perience under their belts and fol-
lowing a three-week layoff in which
t,ley polished up their machine in
the rough spots. the Eagles Will
virtually be a new outfit when they
take to the field against Laredo.
Problems Solved
With all eligibility problems IRON
ed out, although II feels that 1t Is
just beginning the season. The
probable starting lineup will be as
follows: McMinn. lie; Bennett, It;
Escobar. lg; Thomas, c; Bolton. g;
Cortez, IT. Washington. re; Benway.
and Lee, halves; Bennett. q: and
Wilson, (. There is a strong pos
sibility that Egan and Ennis might
start in the line. and Cara and
Trulillo in the backfield.
A number Of the boys have been
improving rapidly and they have
given the coaching staff new hope.
In the line. McMinn. Bennett and
Washington have steadily improved
and in scrimmage ii has been hard
to run a play over them. These
boys will he cooked and primed for
the Laredo backs. Cara and Tru-
lilo have flashed good form in the
backfield. TTujillo bids fair to be-
come another Placido Gonzales. He
is a fast. scrappy. 125-pound south
paw. Egan and Ems. guards. are
coming TO the front rapidly. Egan
is a real scrapper. Ems kicking
is a valuable asset to the club.
New Offensive
If the sun continues to shine,
Tucker field should be in good con-
dition despite the frequent showers
recently. A wet field han5icaps the
wingbacks and the men who pull
out Of the unbalanced line of inter-
ference. Local clubs have had TO
adjust themselves TO the situation
because Of wet fields early in the
year.
The Tigers will demonstrate a
new type of offense never seen here
before-the Howard Jones shift.
DaCamera attended a Jones COACH
ing school during the past summer
and has schooled his club in the
tactics used by Southern California.
The game should be a battle of
tactics between Warner and q
Jones formations.
