wonder" team OF 20, the John
Reagan Houston) Bulldogs smear
ed their way through the Browns
vile Eagles here Friday to q 24-0
victory.
The Reagan backs used the Notre
Dame shift to advantage, showing
lots Of drive, speed and eluslveness.
Working behind a huE-y forward
wall which charged all the time,
the Reagan backs looked Like the
real MCCOY.
1t was only the fighting spirit
Of the Eagles which kept the score
from mounting TO dizzying heights.
Underdogs from the opening play
the locals gave all they had in the
way Of defense and made a very
creditable showing against the
potent visitors.
"Lofo" Escobar, Eagle left end,
stood out in the staunch defense.
1t Is hard TO judge just how much
he meant TO the Eagle line. He got
more than his share OF the tackles,
frequently circling the back Of the
Reagan line TO nail the runner
from behind.

experience and class taking its toll.
The Houston club, defending dis
trict champions, are due to make
their mark in the state ace They
look even better than last season
and should make the state semi
finals.
Their backfield OF Barrett, Rick
ert, Asben and Royal was a hard
driving aggregation. Even they,
however, found the Eagle defense
extremely bothersome.
The visitors tailed early In the
first quarter on a su-.ained drive
down the field. Royal lunged over
the last three yards. Goal kick
missed.
Asbell took the second one over
In the second quarter. Barrett made
the third one in the third period
and Asben loped so yards around
the right side Of the field for the
last tally in the final quarter. Try
for points failed each time.
The Brownsville offenSe could
not get going against the Reagan
forward wall. The Eagle pony >ck-
field pounded against the visitors
with little effect. They got II scor-

but were halted near the Reagan
goal line.
