McAllen Anxious to Wipe
Away Defeat OF
Last Year

ogan's first bid for Valley school
boy grid honors Is just q few days
off and in preparation for that
event the McAllen mentor is send
Ing his % odd aspirants through
the hardest series Of workouts that
they have experienced since the
opening Of the grid training season
nearly two months ago.
Friday afternoon Of the present
week Ogan's Bulldogs will ia on
Skipper j. d. Fosters fast-moving
@Edinburg Junior college Broncs.
conceded to be n OF the fastest
collegiate clubs in South Texas.
And just because the Broncs were
humbled by Dutch" Rektorik's
high school Cardinals at Harrington
last week is no sign that the Ogan
proteges won't get the scrap OF
their lives here Friday eve.
The McAllen eleven will be out
to wipe a ~ TO 6 defeat which the
junior college squad handed them
at the start of the 1929 season. The
Bulldogs had the Foster team
thoroughly whipped for three quar-
tiers. but big John McCauley Fos-
ter's human ~oattering ram. whirled
into action ard scored three touch
downs against the Doggies during
me last period 10 sew UP a victory
io# his mates. McCauley will be or
tive varsity roster for the opening
Of the season here. and he Is the
lad the Bulldogs will have 10 smoth-
er II they expect to get anywhere
with the Edinburg eleven.
Strong Forwards
Penny Frisby, slash.ng signal
caller OF Ogan's club. and Darwin
Jones, the lusty line bucker. will
be counted upon 10 lead the Bull
dog offensive against Edinburg.
They should have little difficulty
I'm crushing the Bronc forward wall.
for that wall appears thus far in
the season to be little better than
q shell. Frisby and Jones will be
aided by Earnest and Webb at the
two halfback posts. and this quartet
OF speedsters Is capable Of offering
q most deceptive attack.
Veteran men will get the call In
The line unless Ogan changes his
vplans considerably. Barney Jack
son will be at Center. the post at
which he starred as a brilliant
defensive player all last season.
Thanking him at guards will be Bob
Shaner. a new member OF the Bull
dog squad and a fighting. tough
lineman. whose partner will prob
ably be Jimmy Overstreet. George
Karam and John big Boy" use
have been assigned the tackle
berths. with Captain Butch" Slut
zenbacker. who has developed .
fleet offensive play. and Jimmy
Ford at the wing positions. Jack
son. Karam. Hayse and Captain
Butch" will be the veteran men
in the line. with Frisby. Earnest
and Jones taking part as seasoned
backs.
A string OF capable reserve men
will probably see action If Ogan
decides to give them q bit of sea
soning during the Bronc scrap.
Ogan's style OF play will probably
>divulge some similarity to the
superb aerial attack that the 1925
bulldogs. runners-up TO the bril-
INT Brownsville Eagles that year
we're famous for. Ogan has been
working with Frisby and Earnest
as pass tossers this season. and re-
ceivers who have gained his special
attention are Ford. Stutzenbacker.
