the crest of an impressive four-game
winning streak, will meet its most
challenging test Of the season next
Friday night when the Hornet pow
erhouse tangles with another unbeat-

Both teams tuned up for the de-

league championship by rolling to
one-sided victories in last weeks
games.
Cory-Rawson crushed Van Buren,
48 to 0, and Arlington fiattened Lib

that both teams were setting their
sights for this weeks key battle.
Last year the same two teams
battled it out for the championship
at Rawson, with Arlington coming
up with a last-minute I'd to edge
past the Hornets. That and a de-
sire to rack up an undefeated rec

towns to lead Cory-Rawson in it's 48
