I Friday night, Sept. 22, the Lock jhart Lions will open their football 1 schedule with a battle in the flood flights with Austin High School.

This will be the first night game for the Lions, and the first game with Austin for several years. Coach Bennie Strickland, of Austin, says, "While the great majority of my candidates this season arc new and inexperienced, I am confident I will be able to form a combination better than my 1932 machine, and certainly on a par with that of other schools." Strickland has good reserves from last year which he intends to use as a line and backfield. He reports that he has only one letter man who will hold the position of tackle. Lockhart's coach, Hilliard, says that he believes the Lions will make a good showing, even though the team is not as large in numbers an Austin 's team. The Lions have five letter men with some reserves.

With this material, Mr. Hilliard will choose his eleven. Austin High has about two thousands to Lockhart's possible two hundred and fifty students. The support of the town is badly needed. The citizens of Lockhart ought to go to Austin Friday night and see the Lions battle with the Austin Maroons.

The price of this game iB within the reach of every man's pocket book. Come all. Support your home team and help it on to victory. Let's go, you Lions and boosters.
