years ago when he turned in a
superb battle against the potent
BUGS at Corpus Christi. Running
off the tailback position, he utillz-
ed his good interference cleverly
and smacked the Kingsville line
for consistent gains. In addition. It
seemed as though he played In the
Kingsville backfield on defense for
time and again he pulled down the
Steer backs with reSOunding tackles
before they reached the line OF
Dcrimmage. But he was given more
than able assistance by the Eagle
forwards who gave an excellent
demonstration Of blocking and tack
ling with Raul Garcia az center
leading the way.
