Conference Top
Ranking Games
|At brookhaven
And jackson

According to reports from con-
ference games, Jackson's Lanier
Bulldogs have established them
selves as definite threat in the
Northern division of the Big 49,
Conference, dumping Greenville
1877 for the Bulldogs third con-
ference win while Louisville, tied
for the top spot in this division,
edged Newton Hornets 1T. The
amazing Scott County eleven
swamped Morton 1856, while Vicks-
burg got by Yazoo City 1876.
The Southern division is topped
by three teams with one win each
and no losses. Brookhaven smash
ed Prentiss $50 but the big game
was at Meridian where Laurel's
Oak Park Dragons and the Harris
High Blackcats battled for four
bone-crashing quarters in a game
that ended in a 90 deadlock.
Football interest in the South
ern division this week centers in
Brookhaven where two pre-sea-
son favorites, BIO h undefeated-
Hattiesburg's Royal Street High
Tigers and Brookhaven clash, that
will eliminate one or tn. other as
title contenders, and McComb in
vades Prentiss. In the Northern
division, Yazoo City hosts Green
wood, Forest journeys to Vicks-
burg, Greenville goes to Morton
and the divisions most teams.
