tempt to ambush the Valley club

one OF the toughest clubs in the

Another tilt on the same day

four lettermen back and a new
coaching staff on hand, the Edin-
burg entry is an unknown guam
tity. Claude Daley Of Donna
grinds out fpeedy little units each
season regardless Of what his mat
erial happens to be. Galley has the
knack Of getting the most out Of
his charges. No Redskin team Is a
setup.
La Feria vs.. Rio Hondo
La Feria viii step down to Rio
Hondo for a fray with the ex-
patriated eleven there. Rio Hondo
Is having a hard time In rustling
a schedule as the Cameron county
&C. league has ruled them out and
they are hardly big enough to step
into the B" circuit. La Feria fans
are a bit dubious. They cannot see
a Cavalier eleven without Big Bill
Dickson, An-valley tackle for two
Big Bill IS doing his stuff
season with the Brownsville j.
* Scorps.
The Cameron county Glass &C"
chase opens Thursday afternoon
when R~angerville visits Santa Rosa.
