The
Sports


THERE Is a possibility that the
Brownsville Junior College Scorpi-
ons will play st. Mary's university
Of San Antonio here in the near
future. The Valley Mid Winter
Fair wanted to prom3te the game,
but evidently has decided that the
contest would be too costly The
local coaching staff believes the
game could be held here without
a financial loss. A close game with
st. Mary's would do much TO raise
the Scorpion stock in upstate
circles. st. Mary's has always rank
ed high and although she took a
drubblng from Schreiner week be-
fore last. she still has = OF the
strongest small university squads n
Texas. Schreiners margin was none
too decisive.
THE BROWNSVILLE Screaming
Eagles left here Thursday morning
for Robstown where they will play
the Pickers Friday. The downy lit
tie birds built up their confidence
greatly by defeating Laredo 44-0
last week. Feeling clipper. they
should make RobStown extend her
SELF. And should the boys get a
break at a critical moment. they
Nigh. win the contest. Rcbstcwn
undoubtedly has excellent material.
But 10 remains to be seen wheth-
er or not Rocky Rundell has gotten
the most out Of the boys.
Familiar Fish
WHEN THE AGGIE Freshmen
come here next week for a game
with the Brownsville Junior college
Scorpions. there will be several IA
miliar faces in the Aegie lineup.
Ray Murray OF Harlingen and Rit-
ter Of La Feria are members of The
squad. Murray was perhaps the
outstanding member Of Dutch REX
forks championship team las. year.
At end the tall youth was a veri-
table whirlwind. He went wild IN
the fourth quarter last year TO score
three ~touchdowns against McAlen.
Ritter was a nice performer In a
Cavalier uniform.
BARFIELD and Dunesnil. two
stellar backs Of the Port Arthur
aggregation which defeated the
Screaming TaEles at Houston IN
the bi-district tilt. also are MEM
bers Of the Aggie squad Barfield
was ineffective against the Eagles
but Dumesnil was a threat from
the moment he walked onto the
field until the final whistle was
blown. No doubt these boys will
remember Bennett. Summers and
Leche Sylvester from last year.
THERE WILL &c q number ri
good games in the Valley Friday
The Neslaco-San Benito tilt head
lines the weeks program with the
Edinburg- Harrington fray coming
second. Weslaco and Harrington are
the only un~defeated. united teams
in the Valley. San Berlto mas heea
beaten but once. and then Ey Sen
Benito. The question up to-day s
whether or not San Benito a
clout the Panthers from their un-
defeated standing, giving Harrington
relatively clear sailing. On the past
record, weslaco should defeat San
Benito and Harrington should beat
Edinburg. However. Edinburg put
up a startling battle last week 10
cefeat McAllen. Dutch Rektorik
has been drilling his Cardinals
against overconfidence-the trouble
that probably allied the McAllen
Bulldogs last week.
Weslzco rs. Harrington
If ALL present indications are
borne out. the Valley championship
will be determined Nov. 20 when
the Weslsco Panthers pay their re-
spects TO the Cardinals in Harlin-
gen. Coach /. Z. Martin has always
managed to jockey his club well
up among the leaders and this looks
like his big opportunity 20 reach
the top rung. He will have TO have
a good club on an edge to make
the measure Of the Cardinals, how
ever.
LA FERIA is the second horse in
this Valley race. Jim Ewing's boys
haven't been beaten yet and they
suffered but n tie. Last year Jim
iockyed his boys along among the
leaders up until the last OF the sea-
son before doing q nose dive. While
the Cavaliers haven't been rolling
I'D impressive scores, they have
been taking them as they came.
This week the la Feria team takes
on the Mission club.
