That is what most of the pigskin critics say of the Sweetwater-
Stephenville fray tonight in the John Tarleton stadium in the
Erath County seat.
The Sweetwater coaches and their Mustangs, 30 strong, hoarded
two buses at 7:15 this morning Ttl€ Dope Chart
and headed for Stephenville-j SEASON'S STANDINGS
site of the most outstanding j
game in the school-hoy mara- !
thon this week.
While dark, threatening rain-
laden clouds scuttled overhead,
the Mustangs pranced through
their final workout late yester-
day afternoon at Newman Sta-
dium—and then called it a
week. Coaches Priddy and Clark !
seemed very well satisfied with !

Getting closer home, the
coasting Abilene Eagles gel
their first real lest of the
campaign in the roaring
Brown wood I,ions. Ail four
brigades, Sweetwater, Abi-
lene, Stephenville a n d
lirownuood boast undclcal-
ed and un-tied records in
both district and non-cnnlVr-
enee frays. But the Mus-
tangs go them one better
in that their goal line is still
unmarked by enemy cleats.

Can the same thing be said af-
ter the game tonight? Anyway,
you can wager your old straw
hat that at least two of these
potent powerhouses will he
knocked out of the perfect-rec-
ord class and relegated to the
“also-ran" heap. Take your
choice and may the best machine
chug in the winner.
.t,
the results, although they didn't
tell the boys in so many words.
Evenly Matched
Sweetwater and Stephenville
will stack up tonight on fairly
even terms if their records and
comparative scores can bo used
as a criterion, with the Mus-
tangs having a slight edge. Both
outfits beat San Angelo, the Yel-
low Jackets by an 8-0 count,
while the Ponies romped on the
Bobcats, 20-0. The Mustangs
trampled Breck, 14-0 and Steph-
enville knocked the Buckaroos
over, 13-6, the Jacket goal line
being crossed for the first time
this year. Both combatants to-
night have perfect untied and
undefeated records at stake, and
realize that the Oil Belt cham-
pionship possibly hinges on the
outcome.

All you stay-at-homes
needn't be disappointed.
Through a lucky break you'll
he able to keep almost as
close tab on the game as it
you had a grandstand seat

you have to do is to lie pres-

vens in Search of a Champion-
ship. A super-colossal production
in four reels, to Ira released at
3 p. m. Saturday in the T. ('. U.

Meyer and Homer Norton. The
cast—22 gridiron gladiators.
Two teams to thrill the teem-
ing thousands. Turbulent, tense

Treacherous, turbulent thrills!!
Terrific, tumultuous, tempestu-

Coach Norton’s boys, unde-
feated, rate four stars by the
critics, while Coach Meyer’s
charges, defeated, tied and vic-
ti l ions, are given out three
stars.
But ratings are gone with the
wind for t his production. Rank
rivalry rages and both elevens
will go at it tooth and nail, ham-
mer and torigs, with might and
main or. as you might say, they
will shoot the works.
DENTON — Wayne Rideout,

history for North Texas State

Don Lash of Indiana, national
farmers two-mile champion, will he pit-
ted against tho Hoosier star in
the two-mile race again this year

Choc Sportsman announced to-

shattering the old Southern A.
A. U. record of 9:15 and giving
the lanky North Texan the hon-
or of running the second fastest
two-mile race ever reeled off in
America. Lash's time is only
five seconds over the American
! record of 8:58. i.
