Holtville high school, defender OF
the southern California football
championship, will jump the gun in
Imperial Valleys grid season
Thursday night when the Vikings
will meet st. Augustine high of
San Diego. The game will be play
ed on the Holtville gridiron. The
kickoff is slated for 8 o'clock.
All other schools in the valley
will play first games on Friday
night.
Coach Noval Walker has tabled
his 1898 team as much weaker than
his southern California champion
ship club. but there are persons in
Holtville who have tabled this
years squad as the best in history.
Reserves are weak. says Walker.
Other advices say his club is two
deep in every position but one. That
one position is filled by Jack Gray.
Football coaches from CaleXico,
Brawley and Ell Centro will be on
hand to scout the Holtville squad
to see if Walker is telling the truth
or to see if the other advices arc
correct in reference to the strength
of the Viking eleven.
st. Augustine will furnish a stiff
test for the Holtville team because
the Saints boast a team equal to
last seasons undefeated eleven.

by Ell Centro high schools Coach
Laurence Hansen Tuesday as the
mentor frantically searched his
squad for a good running back to
carry the colors against PIT, Iona

The forward wall at the Ell Centro

sired but thus far in the season
Coach Hansen has not unearthed
a running back.
Jack kirkpatrick looked like the
best bet in early season but he has
not blossomed forth as Hansen had
hoped. Buddy Measures has shown
promise but he is too light. Price
has slowed too much and Peters is
uncertain in finding holes in the
line.
