Grandfalls Saturday, the Junior

played a good game to keep their

It is a shame that fans must
feel called upon to act in the way
they did at Dallas during the
Texas-O. U. game. Actions like
those there and the incident at
the Kermit - Monahans game two
years ago Solve nothing, and cause
the blameless football teams to
get an unsavory reputation for
sportsmanship that it takes years
to live down. The average person
forgets that such things are
caused by people who have no
official connection with the game.

Kermit Dirt Daubers continued

Lumbley, coach at Pecos, is hav-
ing his troubles this year. The fine
team of last year is gone, and he
is attempting the long rebuilding
process that such a loss is usually
followed by. It is very probable
that the only game they will win
this year will be against Sea-
graves.
Ole Fuddle picked all 7A win-
ners last week without one miss.
Guessed Kermit 40, Pecos 6, and
the score was 34-0. Guessed Mona-

was 47-6. Guessed Denver City 7

From all accounts, the Kermit
B team continued to show a lot
of fine blocking and driving at
Andrews last week. Richard Al-
mond is a real triple-threat pros-
pect for the varsity next year,
and Kruse, Peacock, Rachel and
Hopkins look good in the back-
field. The line has some fairly
big boys that like it rough. All
are eligible for next year, pro-
vided they pass their school work.

Glenn Rhea, sopohmore back of
the Jackets, showed a lot of drive
during the Pecos game. Rhea had
been expected to carry a load in
the backfield, but his earlier
showings had been disappointing.
He played like he had found
himself and really wants to go.

The game between Monahans
and Wink should be a thriller.
Both teams play wide-open foot-
ball, and both have similar records
for the year. Monahans has a
slight advantage in playing at
home. But the odds seem to be
even.

Most thrilling play of the game

by Courtney Holt, Culvahouse,

Henry Spinks kicked two extra

Texas Tech fans around Kermit,

Pauley, McCamey’s star back,
has been playing with a cast on
his hand and when he gets back
in shape it would not be too much
of an upset if the Badgers take
some team that is now doped to
beat them. He looked good against
Denver City, and his teammates
did a good job of stopping the
flashy Streety.
