|mperioI Defeats bruWIev
Reserve Cridders, 1910

Imperial high schools varsity
football team, striking twice in the
fourth period of a hard fought
game, Monday night defeated
Brawley reserves, 1870, before a
homecoming crowd at Imperial
field.
1t was the first victory of the
season for the valiant Tiger grid
machine, and it chalked up another
argument on the credit side of the
ledger in Imperials fight to enter
the valley league. ......
Brawley, preparing for an import
ant league game against Holtville
on Wednesday night, used all three
second stringers and all of the
squads third and fourth string
players in the Monday night game
Varsity players did not suit up
for the contest.
The Brawley reserves fought I'M
perial to a standstill in the first
three quarters but fell before a
vicious onslaught in the final quart
er.
Imperial drove SO yards to its
first score early in the fourth quart
er and Tackle Jones intercepted a
Brawley pass for the second touch
down. James Nanomantube drop
kicked the extra point.
Danskin and Brackenbury COM
bined to score the first Imperial
touchdown. Danskin passed to
Brackenbury for 30 yard gain,
then tossed a second for first
down on the Brawley one. Brack-
enbury plunged over for the score.
Jones galloped 26 yards for a
touchdown on the intercepted pass.
Minter, Brawley quarterback, threw
the ball into Jones hands in at
tempting to ground the ball.

CHICAGO, Nov. 81. (UP)-Fran-
els Schmidt's remark that ''Michi-
gan players pull their pants on one
leg at a time, same as we do"
comes out of the past this week to
haunt the frog-voiced coach of
Ohio States Big Ten football cham
pions.
Back in 1894. Michigan was Ohio
States nemesis. Schmidt's remark
helped whip the Michigan jinx, but
today the tables are switched and
twice beaten Michigan is being fed
morning. noon and night on the
theory that Ohio States Buckeyes
pull 'em on a leg a time, too.
Down in the corn country they're
praying for a Michigan victory to
open up a chance for Iowa to tie
for the title by defeating North
western. Ohio State has won five
straight in the Big Ten. Iowa has
four victories and one defeat and
is the only remaining challenger.

'BrawIey. Vikings
TangIe in Crucial
Tilt Wed. Niqhf

Two weeks ago Brawley and
Holtville high school football teams
met on the Viking gridiron TO de-
termine the cellar championship of
the valley league-and didn't. When
the final gun had been fired the
scoreboard read Brawley 13, Holt
vile 13.
On Wednesday night Brawley
high school, presently resting one
rung above the cellar position as
result of the now-historic victory
over Ell Centre, will defend the
Wildcat position against Holt
vile invasion.
Before the Ell Centre Brawley
game last Friday night you would
have predicted that they would have
to pay the customers to watch the
Brawley- Holtville game, but as it
turned out, it'll be the early bird
who gets the seats at Wednesday
nights battle.
All because a couple of football
coaches, Sheldon Loughborough of
Brawley and T. S. Walker of Holt
vile, worked near-miracles in i'm
proving their respective football
teams. When Brawley bowed to El
Centre 1870 in the opening game
of the season it looked like a dark
and lean year for the northenders;
and when Calexico routed Holtville,
1876, in the opener there was little
cheering to be heard in Holtville.
But Brawley and Holtville came
roaring back. The Wildcats tripped
Ell Centro, ,Holtville nearly bumped
Calexico. With share of luck the
Vikings would have emerged victor
iouS.
So the rivals of the second divi-
sion in the valley league meet once
again Wednesday night in a game
that may turn out to be the best of
the year.

out their feet and the patience of
the folk waiting for them at the
finish line. The cross-country run
could stand a little reducing. too.
Start the fellows behind a big tree
around a bend in the road, throw
a bucket of water over them to
simulate WEAKNESS, and let 'em run
for it.
Something could be cut off that
500-mile race at Indianapolis with
out doing any damage. Most of
the action is packed in the last
100 miles or so, so why make the
drivers and the spectators suffer an
extra 400 miles?
Yacht racing, Of course, we'd
leave alone. In fact, yachts don't
race far enough. Our idea of the
perfect yacht race would be one
that took the boats around the
world II times, with the finish in
a permanently ice-locked harbor in
Little America, or smack dab in the
middle of the SargaSso sea.
Come to think of it, it might be
a good idea to shorten sports COL

thinking. and just let the various
quiz experts of the air do your
thinking for you?

Bowl Opponent TO
Be Selected Ear|v

PASADENA, Cal, Nov. q. (UP)
A plan was reported afoot today
to pick the eastern team for the
Rose Bowl game a week or SO before
the final game which will decide
the Pacific coast opponent.
The plan, according to Rube
SamuelSen, sports editor of the Pas
adena Morning Post, is based on the
supposition that UCLA gets past
Oregon State this weekend. And
then both the Bruins and use bowl
over the weak Washington State
and Washington teams.
This would leave the Dec. 8 game
between UCLA and use the de-
Gliding match in the selection of the
Pacific coast team to play in the
Bowl.
However, to avoid long wait by
eastern teams, Tournament of
Roses officials are considering a
plan to picking the team in ad-
vance by agreement with UCIA and
use according to Samuelsen.
