LOCALS PREP
FOR CONTEST
Farmers to Bring Polished
Machine Here For
Encounter

Facing their first real test OF the
season, the Brownsville Junic:
College Scorpions began sharpen
ing up their attack Monday for
their engagement with the A. -
M. Freshmen here Friday after
noon.
This Brownsville-Aggie contest
has developed into an annual cias-
sic In which the Valley c e some
OF its best football Of the year. In
20 the Aggies came here and beat
the high school 60. Last season
they brought another club here
and were beaten 1870 by the
pions.
This week Coach Higginbotham
will bring his strongest tc. IN
years here. He has a squad OF ITO
men, picked from the best high
school, academy and junior college
boys In the state. Higginbotham
plans to bring about rs slayers
here.
Likely Candidates
Among the freshmen who have
shown to advantage in practice are
Odell Fowler. Fl. Worth, back;
Jack West, Harrington, back; p. d.
Allen, Kosse, back; Bill Young, San
Antonio, back; Hen Moehlman,
eryan, back; Odell Conoley, Am
Jrillo, end; v. T. Tracy, Corpus
Christi, end; Wharton Jordan. Fl.
Worth. tackle; j. c.. Cooper, Schulz
enberg. tackle; Bud Griggs. pee
atur, center: John Crow, Milford,
guard; s. w. Maxwell. Leonard,
guard.
The freshmen have been work
ing out regularly for several weeks.
For the first time, the Fish will
bring a polished machine here.
Coach Higginbotham learned last
wear that a team OF individual
stars could not hope to beat the
locals. and consequently he Is
bringing a smooth unit to the VAL
ley this season.
The Scorpions, by far the strong
est scholastic club ever seen In
the Valley, have lobbed over easy
victories against two army teams
as warming-up exercises. They
have all OF last seasons stars back
with the exception Of Boy New
man. In addition they have been
strengthened to where they car
place another team on the field
practically as strong as the first
Tnit. They have ample reserve
strength for the first time.
Backs Clicking
=. Maurice Pipkin, Bill Cabler and
Bud Atkinson are clicking in the
backfield as well or better than
they did last year. Three good boys
are battling for Boy Newman's
place at the spin position. These
are jennie McNabb, Sam Lesser
and Joe Debona. McNabb made the
fans sit I'D and take notice in his
last start with brilliant work at re-
turning punts. He may get the call
as q starter against the Fresh
men II an ankle injury heals SUI
ficiently.
Last years line Is intact. The
wing positions have been improved
by the addition of Doc Lawrence
and Lib Barwick. Geo. RUSSELL Is
giving G. r. Nelson a hard -crap
for the center berth. All the other
first stringers Of last season are
having a real scrap, for new boys
OF first class ability are after their
posts.
This game should produce by
far the best football yet seen in
the Valley this season.
