Jones added yardage, scoring
finally on a lunge from the 2.
Daniel Klekar’s kick was
blocked, but a penalty on La
Grange gave the Brahmas a
new try and this time Petrich
ran it over from the one for
two points.
The Leopards, with Moerbe
and Lobpries doing the lugging,
picked up a couple of first
downs after the kickoff, only
to lose the ball via the fumble
route in midfield. Klekar,
on a beautiful reverse, reeled
off 50 yards for the pay stripe.
Jones hit the line for the bonus
points.
The fourth period found the
Leps deep in their own terri-
tory. Fumbles and a blocked
punt gave the Brahmas posses-
sion on the La Grange 15. The
pay-off play was a plunge by
Boethel from the two. A line
try for bonus money was
stopped, ending the scoring at
34-6.
Buddy Futschik got off a
nice scamper after the kickoff
and the Leps were threatening
on the Brahma 15 when time
ran out.

War I Veterans and also a la-

The session was called by W.
R. Urner of Kirtley who is
commander of a similar organi-
zation in Smithville which now
lists 41 members. The Smith-
ville barracks is one of 200 in
Texas.
Expected to attend the session
here is Roger Q. Evans of Aus-
tin, state commander, who will
explain the purposes and ob-
jectives of the organization.
Mr. Urner said that existing
veterans organizations no long-
er represent the thinking of
many of the veterans of the
first World War and are not
looking out after their inter-
ests. That’s why, he said, a sep-
arate organization should he set
up to represent the veterans of
World War I.
