FIRST STRING EAGLES IN
SCRIMMAGE SHOW EAGLETS
HOW TO ADVANCE PIGSKIN
£he Brownsville high school
IWent through their hardest
workT/ul of the season Monday
when they spent their bag of
tricks in scrimmage with the sec
ond squad.
The first string backs were able
to advance the ball at ease with the
work of “Big Dan" Barnhart, full
back. standing cut The Eagle for
ward wall smothered all attempts
of the second string crew to ad
vance the ball. The second string
hacks, led by Placido Gonzales,
were seldom able to get up to the
scrimmage
Coach Douglas Fessenden was
forced to change his backfieM
around a bit after Rodolfo Samanc.
180 pound half, complained of a
pain in his side. He was excused
for the afternoon.
Perez Does Well
Perez continued to work at cen
ter and his play at that post is
showing steady improvement. Last
season he held down a half posi
tion. By shifting Perez to center,
the Engles get a veteran line all the
w%> 'hrough with one exception
RJl Summers, one of the most
promising members of the squad,
has had little actual competition
although he is working like an old
timer.
The way the squad lined up Mon
day was: Ends. Crowe and Sylves
ter: tackles, Cortez and Bennett:
guards. Summers and O’Bryan;
center. Perez; fullback, Barnhart;
quarterback. Newman; halves.
Cabler. Gonzales. Todd. Several
changes were made during the
scrimmage.
The practice got under way with
John (Leehe) Sylvester booting a
few over the bars from placement;
Barnhart. Cabler and Davenport
punting and the remainder of the
squad handling passes from the ac
curate mits of Morris Pipkin. Jun-1
ior college player. Pipkin spun the
pigskin into the galloping players’
hands with ease and precision.
The first string also was practiced
on the flying wedge and they re
ceived the ball several times, re
turning it against the second squad.
This procedure was reversed and i
the Eagles broke up the return play
of their opponents from the kick-;
off.
After a short parade up and
down the field drilling plays, the
actual scrimmage was begun. The
Eagle backs stepped away for sev
eral long gains.
On the first play a pass good for
20 yards was completed. Newman
hit the line for five yards. Barn
hart slashed his way 20 yards.
Cabler shook loose the tacklers and
sped 50 yards before being downed.
An offense vas formed for the
second string but they were unable
to do much with the Eagles' strong
forward wall.

The high school Eagles emerged
from their hardest workout of the
season Monday with little or no
damage done. The huskies scrim
maged with th esecond squad, dis
playing good work both on the part
of the backs and the line. The line
halted the second stringers in their
shoes. Their backs seldom were
able to get past the line of scrim
mage “Big Dan” Barnhart dis
ported himself in fine style at his
post of fullback.
• • #
The first string backfield was
shaken up a bit due to the absence
of Rodolfo Samano. He complained
of a pain in his side early in the
scrimmage and was released for the
afternoon. The combination of
Barnhart. Newman. Cabler and
Todd or Ctonzales clicked off well
Monday. There is still a possibility
of Carroll Crowe’s being taken from
end and given a half post. This
would leave a gap in the line, how
ever.
• • •
Fessenden is still drilling the
squad in fundamentals. He gives
them blocking and tackling. This
is where high school teams are
made and lost. A team that is not
so smart but knows its blocking and
tackling will eventually wear down
its opponents.
* • •
Walter (Club) Washington, is
bearing down hard in the practice
and his work has begun to show up.
He seems to be In good condition
and is a willing worker. Walter
made several good plays Monday.
On one play Cabler got away from
the entire field and seemed destined
to make the goal line. Washington
ran him out to the side line, how
ever. and nailed him with a pretty
tackle. Cabler made about 50 yards
on the play.
• * •
The Junior College eleven will re
port to Coach Calvin Surtees at 3
p. m. Wednesday. All in all. the
coaching staff and the fans are op
timistic toward the coming season
The Scorpion eleven will probably,
be formed around Morris Pipkin,
transfer from 8. M. U. He is one
of the prettiest passers seen in ac
tion here in some time. Pipkin
plays either quarterback or end. He
formerly starred at Main Avenue. A
number of Valley high school grid
ders will swell the squad. Martin
of El Jardin was out Monday watch
ing practice. He said he intended
to go out for the college squad
Martin now weighs 170. He played
for the Comets at 150 last year.

Jimmy George is Brownsville’s
golfing champion, following his vic
tory Sunday over A. K. Black
George nosed out Black three and
two. Jimmy is one of those natural
athletes. Anything he does, he does
well. For instances. Skeet—he’s cm
the locals' first team.
• • •
The San Benito Pentagons are
continuing to show the way to Val
ley baseball nii.es. Winning 13 out
of their last 15 games, they romped
on the Harlingen Red Ants twice
Sunday. The latest achievement
was a three straight win series over
the Kingsville Cubs. The Browns
ville Tigers are now seeking a game
with the Pents.
• • •
Valley people seem to be taking
more and more to horse shows.
There was a fair gathering on hand
Sunday afternoon and evening at
the show' conducted at Fort Brown.
Especially did they seem to gather
for the evening event. Girls and
women were in evidence and one
event was held for members of
their sex.
• • •
Fort Brown authorities will prob
ably see their way clear to holding
other shows in the evening. Heat—
otm of the chief objections to horse
shows—is avoided, and people con
fined offices during the day can
attend in the evening.
• • •
Did you know that ’’Dutch’’ Rash
er is now working in Dallas? That
Hardy Connally is in New Mexico
and will go out for the university
eleven? That Boy Myer will be out
for the fish team at Rice? That
John Burns and Olin Weller plan
ned to leave for A. and M. today?

SURTEES CALLS
SCORPIONS OUT
Junior College Gridders Get
First Practice Wed
nesday
The Junior College gridders will
be called together for the first time
on Tucker field at 3 p. m. Wednes
day afternoon, it has been an
nounced by Coach Calvin 8urtees.
This is Surtees' first year here
and he does not know what will
comprise his squad- He formerly
starred at high school and St.
Mary's in San Antonio.
It now seems probable that the
Scorpions will have a good eleven.
, New boys are coming in all the
! time. Several Valley high school
, stars of last year have announced
that they will be out for the team.
The Scorpion eleven will probably
be built up around Morris Pipkin,
transfer. Pipkin formerly starred
and was captain at Main Avenu**,
San Antonio. Last season he played
on the 8. M. U. frosh team.

Just now.
The Sports continued at their
tremendous clip, slugging out a
third straight victory over the Ex
porters, 9 to 6. The rush of Phe
lan's men is pumping interest into
a race which a few days ago ap
peared to be dead on its feet. With
si:: days to go. the Louisiana nine !
still has an excellent chance to
overhaul the leaders.
Six runs off Tink Riviere in the
first two innings enabled the Sports
to breeze through easily, although
they continued pecking away at

Morrell was not exactly a puzzie
to the Shippers,, but they could not
overcome the early deficit.
In the only other game, the
Steer* gained a close verdict over
Houston. 4 to 3. after the Buffs
had staged a thrilling ninth inning
rally. Whitey Glazner, although
rapped soundly, had the Bisons
blanked until the closing period,
when they piled into him hard. A
homer by Roy Moore brought in
two of the runs. A spectacular
shoe-string catch by Randy Moore
prevented the Buffs tying the score.

Grid Practice
DALLAS. Sept. 10.—The
Texas University Longhorns, 1923
Southwest conference gr i d i r o n
champs, and six schools intent upon
| succeeding to the throne buckled
I down to work today in preparation
for what promises to be as thrilling
a race as the conference has seen.
Uniforms were distributed yes
terday. and the seven conference
coaches were prepared to bear down
from the start. All of the squads
will be put through two hard work
outs each day until the middle of
next week, when school opens. The
Southern Methodist u n i v e r sity
Mustangs will take their second
workout after dark in the glare of
flood lights at Ownby stadium. No
other school is sunilarly equipped.
Many candidates have been
working out privately for several
weeks, and it will not be necessary
for the mentors to dwell over long
on getting their squads in condi
tion. Coach Morley Jennings of
Baylor and Coach Morrison of 3
M. U. both face opening games
September 21, so it will be neces
sary for them to start whipping
their machines together almost
from the first day.
As actual training began, the
Baylor Bears still ranked as out
standing favorites to go through to
the championship.
