Bluecots Will "Play Them a Game" Friday Night
TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1950
“We’re going to play them a
game!”
That’s how Coach Harold King
describes the oncoming tiff be-
tween the Coleman Bluecats and
the Brownwood Lions Friday
night at Brownwood.
“It don’t know anything about
the Brownwood team,’’ the coach
said, “but I know our boys will
| play the best game they know
how,”
Possible starting lineup for the
Bluecats, Coach King said, will
be:
Jim Bob Harrison, left end;
Jimmy Hagler, left tackle; Sher-
rill Hazelwood, left guard; Rod-
ney Pirtlc, center; Floyd Jen-
kins. right guarij; Lee Roy El-
kins, right tackle; Bill Griffin,
right end; Bill JBaker, quarter-
back: Donald Marrs, fullback;
Johnny Sartin or J, W. Staggs,
left, halfback; Glenn Harmes,
right halfback.
On the defense, the coach said,
will be possibly Robert Beal,
center and Ed Rankin, halfback.

a day in which the squad in gen-

tour.

It was the Southern Methodist
University Mustangs’ turn to
“look at the birdie’’ today, as
the reporters and photographers
reached the Dallas campus. Yes-
terday, the Ponies practiced de-
fense against . variations of T-
formation such as might be
thrown by razzle-dazzle Georgia

Charley McDonald were respond-
ing well to treatment, and should
leave the injured list sometime
this week.
At Houston, Coach Jess Neely
of Rice Institute said the Owls
were ‘‘looking good” in secret
practice. He said the defending
champions concentrated on
blocking and timing in yester-
day’s practice.
The highly-touted University of
Texas Longhorns ran through a
short dummy scrimmage, with
Ben Tompkins quarterbacking
the first squad. Coach Blair
Cherry, who said the Steers’
blocking and tackling was get-
ting better every day, promised
the team a harder scrimmage
today.
