Gaiser Punts—Hillsboro punted 8 times
! for an average of 40 yards. Weath- j
the ball to the 44-yard stripe. Both
sides intercepted passes and again
Whitmire punted with Barnett return
ing to his own 25-yard stripe. Start-
ing here, the Coyotes smashed their
way to the 2-yard line before being
stopped by a valiant Indian team.
Shortly afterwards the half ends with
Hillsboro in possession of the ball.
Third Quarter
Again receiving the Coyotes put on
Passes—Hillsboro attempted 5, 3
completed for 49 yards. one inter-
cepted and one incomplete. Weath-
erford attempted 13, one completed
for 15 yards, two intercepted and
rest incomplete.
Playing on a muddy field the Wea-
therford boys kept up the spirit of
having a good fighting team. The
breaks were against them and the
Rangers from the Oil Town of Kil-
gore beat out a 13 to 0 score over
the Coyotes. With a pass that came
in the first period from Coppedge to
Johnson made a touch down from
their 25 yard line. The kick for the
extra point was good after two tries
from a penalty on Weatherford for
What a game! What a game! Not
one of the 300 students and football
fans who rode the special train to
Hillsboro to see the football game be-
tween the Hillsboro Junior College
Indians and the W. C- Coyotes de-
mande his money back. No Sir!
Everybody got his money’s worth,
even though the game ended in a 13
to 13 tie.
The fans saw a touchdown scored
first by Weatherford on a sustained
drive. Then a pass and an extra
point put the Indians in the lead. All
this was in the first quarter. In the
third period a long run gave Hills-
boro a 13-to-6 lead with another sus-
tained drive and an extra point giv-
ing the Coyotes a tie in the fourth
period during the closng stages of
tempting to kick the ball out of
bounds on the goal line, Kirkpatrick’s
kick went out of bounds on the In-
dians 20-yard line.
Hillsboro kept the ball in that per-
iod for two plays, and then Whitmire
aided by perfect blocking on the part
of his teammates, started around end
cut back, and raced 80 yards for a
touchdown. The try for extra point
was no good. Score 13 to 6.
For the next few minutes the two
teams had a nip and tuck battle, and
the quarter ended with Hillsboro hav-
ing the ball on their own 25-yard line
Fourth Quarter
Hillsboro could get nowhere and
Whitmire kicked to Russell, who re-
turned to his own 40-yard stripe.
Three passes were incomplete and
Russell kicked 50 yards to Whitmire
who returned to his own 12-yard line
A penalty placed the ball on the
Hillsboro 2-yard stripe and Whitmire
punted 40 yards to Russell who re-
turned to the Hillsboro 27-yard line.
McCauley and McFall started a touch-
down drive with McCauley doing the
scoring and McFall kicked for the
extra point to tie the score 13 to 13.
Four plays later the game ended with
the Coyotes in possession of the ball
on Hillsboro’s 35-yard line.
STARTING LINE-UP
were not able to do much in the mud
with their passes. The game ended
with the boys from Weatherford go-
ing for a touchdown.
Being the underdogs the Coyotes
carried the game to the Rangers and
made them go after it. The Rangers
had a little weight over the Coyotes
both in the line and in the backfield.
The Coyotes were lead by McFall,
Captain Bryan, Russell, and Kirkpat-
rick. In these boys we had a good
end from their own 35-yard line. At- j Loveless, Mullins, Dowd, Crenshaw, clean slate or one game won.
What does Elwood. Beck have that
Tom Harrison doesn’t have? For in-
formation see Kay Mayson.
Ray Gaiser, the boy from Borger,
seems to have forgotten about the
little girl in Brownwood. Could it
have been some one he met on the
Special? Speak up, Nola.
Ashcroft, isn’t ‘love’ the grandest

Darwin Bryan is making big plans
for the future. He says that he is go-

then contract jobs of cotton picking.
Jerry Elders can’t make up her
mind as to whether or not she Will

or not.
Several boys in Weatherford Col-
lege like ‘Fish’ but Junior McCreary
likes a specific kind of ‘Fish’. Blass is
the gas and started for the opposite I Substitutions: Hillsboro-
this time, but if a boy hopes to play
on the varsity team he must make a
good showing with the freshmen
squad. The Coyotes have been a little

and managed to ring up fourteen first
downs to four for Hillsboro.
But that never-say-die spirit of the
Indians just would) not let them go
down in defeat, and several times
the Indians held the opposition when
things looked dark. Coaches Johnson
and Maxwell have done well, and to
those who played for Hillsboro—Duff,
Scruggs, Smith, Dobbs, Grenshaw,
Loveless, Dowd, V. Head, Atchison,
Tittle, Freeman, Owens, Rogers; Gali-
ga, McKown, Payne, Scruggs and
Whitmire—we doff our hat to heroes.
The game in part:
First Quartier
Hillsboro defended the south goal
and. received. Whitmire took the kick-
. off and raced to his own 28-yard line.
Failing to gain, Whitmire punted 47
yards to Kirkpatrick, who returned to
his own 35-yard Ine. With Russell,
McFall and Kirkpatrick doing the
lugging, the Coyotes sailed up the
field to a touchdown, with Kirkpa-
trick getting credit for the score. The
kick was blocked and the Coyotes led
6 to 0. McKown received the kickoff
for Hillsboro and returned to his own
38-yard stripe.
Again the Indians could ride no
more and Whitmire punted, the ball
traveling 45 yards and Head killed
the ball on the Coyotes 18-yard line.
After starting somewhere, a penalty
set the Coyotes back and Kirkpatrick
punted 35 yards to Whitmire, who
returned 5 yards to Hillsboro’s 45-
yard line. TWo line thrusts netted 3
yards and then Dowd dropped back
and passed to Scruggs, the pass and
the run being good for 42 yards and
a touchdown. Scruggs kicked for the
extra point, and Hillsboro led 7 to 6.
The quarter closed shortly afterwards
with the ball in possession of the
Coyotes on their own 47 yard line.
Second Quarter
An exchange of punts found the
Coyotes in possession of the ball on
their own 17-yard line and Russell
As customary, the Thalian organi-
zation held their regular meeting
Monday evening, the meeting was
held atop Oyster Hill in the form of
a picnic with the members enjoying
refreshments furnished by the plebes.
Plans were made for Sports Night
which by the way, is to be October'
22. So all you football heroines stick
to your diet-you’re in training now.
The Senior Thalians selected Dan1
Burns and O- B. Salyer for their
coaches, while the Fish chose Donald
Weaver and Edwin Edmunson. Good'
luck, boys! These girls are thick
headed. Netholyn Bowden was chosen
by the plebes as their president to
assist in planning for Sports Night.
After the meeting adjourned, the
Thalian sisters filled the plebes shoes
with beans. Some trudged home wear-
ily; others rode-Hey, Marion you and
Kathryn! Any way, here’s letting you
know that the Thalians are alive this
year-and how.
Hardin-Simons University will
bring the strongest freshman team
that it has had to Weatherford Col-
lege to meet Coach Tommy Field’s
most powerful aggregation. This
game does not carry the sentimental
interest that many of the other games.
However, the real football fan en-
joys a real fight between two match-
ed teams will really see a game worth
while.
Frosh teams alays put up a fight.
Not only because they want to win at off sides and the score was 7 to 0 in
favor of the Rangers. Then in the
to take the place of McKoy. His
name is Russell.
Scott Doss prefers blondes. I mean
a blond by the name of Gordon.
So long! I’ll be seeing you.
MYSTERIOUS MR. X
Tquchdowns—Scruggs, Whitmire, j
Kirkpatrick and McCauley. Extra j
ponts, Scruggs and McFall.
Due to the fact that Hillsboro play-
ed some ineligible men the game, will
probably not be counted as a confer-
ence game. In case it is counted a
conference game it will be consider-
