The Daniel Baker Hill Billies ond.the
Sam Houston'Nornial staged a big bat-
tk7 In Hunttvllle lost Friday without
either team tatting the fruit of victory.
The Hill Billies left Brownwood early
Thursday and traveled continuously
retching. Huntsville only a few mlnutei
before (he fracus was scheduled to be-
gin.' According to reports from the play-
tit the game was played on a sand field
Which would have done justice to the
sandy peanut district of De Leon and In
a temperature that Is very adept for the
culture of oranges and other tropical
fruit.. These conditions added to the
tiresome journey slowed dawn the work
of the Hill' Billies and retarded their
best efforts which WM expected to pro-
duce victory for the Blue and White.
The defense of the Hill Billies was
practically Impregnable as they held
their opponents' to no first downs during
the entire game. Although the Goat
failed to show any brilliant flashes on
the offense" they gained many more yards
tbeodkl their opponents. Daniel Baker
(.. penalised some hundred and fifty
yards durlnff'.the game most of whkh
was assessed for off-sides. These pen-
alties' invariably coming after five or
'.JUifr been B9ae toward first

wchanie of punts i Alforst had 'the ad-
vantage" over the 'Normal punter and
FUck Hill BUly safety returned the
Bear Cats' punts" for a greater distance
tMb'dld'tbe'Huativllle'sufety.
The only Hill Billy threat for a score
came after Eloe' Springer received a 20-
yard pass1 from .Alferd and Brock made
30 yards more from scrimmage. Next n
past was attempted which Tldmnre In-
tercepted on his own 8 yard line. The
Normalites only threatened once and this
chance was ruined on an attempted pass
which was knocked t down behind the
goat
The Daniel Baker line played a good
game ..throughout Le May Brock and
Flack did good work in the backfteltl.

GAME FEATURED B Y HARD
FIGHTING AND STRAIGHT
FOOTBALL.
The Daniel Baker Hill Billies" threw a
wrench Into the machinery at Clark Field
In Fort Wortk October 4th and by their
fierce fighting H 'completely upset all
"dope"-demorallxed the high liopes of the
Hqrned Frogs hut only to lose to the
Texas Christian University team of the
Southwestern-Conference by one of the
odd breaks 'that the 'game produces.
Until the beginning of the game Texas
football circles were In the 'dark as to
just what Daniel Baker had In the way
of n football team this yea n but before
the flrst quarter was up Texas Chris-
tian Unlverstiy found that she lind met
her class In Daniel Baker team of the
T. I. A. A. The Frogs entered the game
scheduled by them as a practice game
In preparing her team for the games of
the Southwestern Conference but when
the last whistle was blown they realised
that they hud been through "quite a lit
tle scrimmage." In fact the scrimmage
had been so fierce that Coach Matty Bell
the Frogs' wixard had to dmw all his
flrst team cripples into the game and
after the fray his hospital list had swell-
ed. The Hill Billies entered the game
with blood and tears in their eyes deter
mined to wipe out the stain of last year
and In the course of the play wiped ur.
Clark Field with the Frogs. It was tml'
same fflght that the Hill Billies are not

the season Saturday with .Daniel Baker.
Although Grady Hlgglnbothara 'Hill'
Billy coach Is giving out reports aim
good team and lots of fighting spirit
among hit men the T. "C. U. staff bint'
worrying much about the Brownwood
boyt from a victory standpoint.
"Of course the Christians will do 4fl
In their jwwer to lieat the Angora Warn'
but Bell will likely devote most of the'
time of Jthe game In developing the men
who will play in the Aggie game. jt
T. C. U. supporters were much' elated1'
last week over the showing of the 'Frog
kickers but they may get a setback at'
the hands of the Angoras for their main
strength Is supposed to be In their kick-'

"Coach Roswell Hfgglnbotham of "the
Daniel Baker team Is basing his hopes ot
victory on the ultra-cautious way ''he
knows Matty Bell must handle his' men.'
The Frogs next start after the one-wlth
the Hill Billies will be here Saturdayaf-
ter next aand It is then that the first
Southwestern Conference game .will be
played. Bell is faced with the necessity
bf keeping the Aggie game even cloier
In his mind next Saturday than the me
he will be playing with the Hill Billlea.'-
"It is certain htat Bell will throw. tt
responsibility of a victory over UwJlj-
llet upon the youngest shoulders "of jt
squad. He mut hold hack intantlciifr
Hon of the Aggies. - ; ' :m
"Kicking is expected to be a deottjva
factor In Saturday's game as Wldte an
of the Billies Is one of the stars of Hb
state. If the Brownwoodlarw canturu
the battle Into a punting 'duel they are
expecting to cause trouble In that way.
But Bell has been spending a lot of time
on his kickers lately and may pull a sur-
prise." ;. w
The Frogs well remember the pari Ray
White played in the game two year age
but White wasn't in the line-up of the
game und these pre-game alibis went far
naught. It might have been even'mqre
disastrous -for the Frogs had tlie game
been turned into' a kicking duel because
Alford who did the punting ;fop DaaJel
Baker nutpunted the Christiana vary
easily. Matty Bell's surprise In hi
ters didn't materialise and on top of that
the Hill Billies blocked two of the frag
attempts and sufTernj no suck embar-
