Valley Grid Teams re For Championship Battles OUTA. The SPORTS BAG --t. Football Notes members of the Bitowns- vllle "Saturday Morning Quarterback Club" held their weekly meeting yesterday morning, enjoying their coffee as they replayed the Brownsvllle-Harlln- gen game. The consensus of opinion to be that the Brownsville team were faced with the tough Job of playing against 15 opponents--11 players and four officials. McAllen To Play Edinburg Friday For 16-AA Title Mission Goes Against Tri-City Bears The field judge of the Friday night game came In for most, II not all ot the criticism.

One of the club members wanted to know why he did not wear his glasses during the game since he wears them at all other times. This member even went so far ns to state that he would be glad to furnish extra glasses, strong lenses, to this particular official. Just In case you are curious, we were the field Judge In question. Another charter member voiced the opinion that the officials made the Brownsville players nervous and for that reason the Eagles lost the game. He admitted that the four touchdowns the Harllngen team made may have had something to do with the loss but he felt this nervousness was a very potent factor In the final outcome.

The game Friday night rang down the curtain lor both the Eagles and the Cardinals. Both teams tried hard to win the final game of the season and the Harllngen team succeeded. It was generally agreed that during the second half of the game that the Eagles. played 'their best football of the season, showing a fight that would have won earlier games. The stage is all set for the two Valley titles to be decided this week.

At McAllen the Bulldogs will collide with the Edinburg Bobcats for the championship of District 16-AA Friday night. The title of District 40-A will be decided, to a certain extent, at Pharr Thursday when the Mission Eagles meet the Pharr-San Juan-Alamo Bears. I It was "custains" for most of the Rio Valley high school football teams the past-week-end and t.h stage is being prepared fo four teams to wind up th 1943 season this week an settle the titles in District 16-AA and 40-A. Two games remain on the Valle, schedule, the Mission Eagles play ing the Pharr-San Juan-AlanK. Bears Thursday and the McAllen Bulldogs meeting the Edinbun Bobcats Friday.

The Robstowr. Cot ton Pickers end their season Thursday with a traditional game asains the Corpus Chrlstl Buccaneers. When the Bulldogs and Bobcats collide at McAllen Friday night the winner will be thp District 16- AA champions. The Mission-Pharr- Snn Juan-Alamo contest will help to clear up the District 40-A picture If the Eagle's win. Then the district committee will step in anc name a champion.

Cardinals Win The Brownsville Eagles and Har- llnpen ended the season at Brownsville Friday night and the Cardinals won the game, 27 to 7 in a game that, was hard-fought. The Cardinals got off to an early lead, Livingston taking a pass from Lozano that was good for a touchdown. Denton place-kicked the ex- point. In the second quarter the Red Birds scored- again, a pass Warden to Weaver, turning the Again Denton booted the extra point. During the first half the Eagles were roundly outplayed, being able pick up but one first down while Cardinals were rolling up eight and five penetrations.

Early in, the third quarter, the 'ardinals scored a couple of touch- lowns quickly, Burdette racing IB cards to cross the goal for the first me. Denton place-kicked his third tralght point. Just a few minutes ater, Calolway recovered an Eagle umble and then tossed a pass to ivlngston for ihe second. This time Senton's kick was- wide. This ended he Cardinals' scoring.

Taking to the air, the Eagles got ip enough steam to threaten but an ntercepted pass slowed them up. If the Eagles win, they go into- After the 'Cardinals kicked, the a tie with "Donna and Weslaco I Eagles opened up again and this in the standings. tlm( th ey marched straight to a touchdown, a pass carrying deep We are not sure Just how the District 40-A committee will rule this year with three teams deadlocked for the title but we are under the impression that the scores of the three teams involved, when they played each other, will be the deciding factor. Here are the scores: Weslaco 14; Mission 6 Mission 13; Donna 6 Donna 13; Weslaco 6 Now, chum, that Is our ide.i of some close scores. If Mission wins over Pharr- San Juan-Alamo Thursday, and if scores do count, then it appears from where we sit that the Weslaco panthers will be the district champions--and by a lone point.

Now don't take this as official. It is up to the district com- mlttee to decide this championship nnd they have their own system which Is certain to be fair to the teams involved.
