I EAGLES SKin
The North Texas Eagles de-
feated East Texas State 47-7 in
one of the most surprising up-
sets in the 1946 intercollegiate
football season, before an Eagle
homecoming crowd of nearly
10,000. The initial North Texas
'I_ ~score came in the first two min-
utes of play when the Eagles
recovered a Lion fumble. After
:* 0 two plays, Joe Gieb raced over
from the 17-yard line. A few
minutes later Billy Dinkle re-
turned a punt 85 yards for a
second Green and White tally.Down field blocking like this is what made the score one-sided.
