The Indiana meet the
Bulldogs tonight tn Hamilton In
what will probably be one of the
hardest fought games of the sea-
aon.
♦ ' • ^ ....."* •'
The Bulldogs and Indians, both
darkhorses In’ the District I2-A
grid race, are undefeated ln con-
ference competition, and will be
striving to maintain their per-
fect standing ln tonight's game.
' , • •
The game Is considered r a toss
up; comparative scores might pos-
sibly favor Vhe Bulldogs; and
Coach Frazier of the Ihdlans says
that we'll be liiGjty to hold Ham-
ilton to two touchdowns; how-
iver, disregarding all of this, we'll
Zlck with the Indians to win.

Hamilton has played and won
(three easy games this season;
(downing Brownwood B 33-6 to
open . the season; shutting out
Eastland two weeks Ago 23-0: and
trouncing Hlfco' 20^-7 last wCer.

The Indians started out slowly
by losing a l*-0 decision to a
powerful aggregation from v-ihe
| Waco State Home, but after- rest-
ing a Week, came out with a much
improved team at Brady^ The In-
dians lost 7-6 to the Brady Bull-
dugs. UUl L'SHlA bdCE 'sTfdng last
week to crush Rising Star 45-0 in
their opening conference game of
the season.
Back in 1920, when Comanche
and Hamilton started their grid-
iron rivalry,Vjthe Indians crushed
the Bulldogs 170-0.
. . .•
Since that time,1 the Bulldogs
have managed to cohie out Qn the
long end of a score against the
Indians only twice. Ramilton
downed Comandhe 13-7 in 1930,
and came back in 1935 to defeat
the Indians 6-0,
Only three of the Indians gfe
Injured for tohtgh^'s gkme. and all
three, are nurslhg minor ailments,
and will probably all get Into the
game.
Jackie Lauglilj.n, letterman
guard, who has been out with an
injured foot since the Waco State
game a month ago. is still some-
what handicapped but can be us-
ed in c^se that he fs needed.

game, and reinjured it in scrim-
