Nearing the close of the Rio Grande Valley junior high school football season, three teams are tied for first place with one more game to be played and coaches are engaged in an argument over the schedule. The defeat of the McAllen Junior High Bullpups, champions of South Texas for the past four seasons and winners of the mythical state title in 1930, by the Donna Papooses brought the Papooses, the Bullpups and the Weslaco Panther Kittens into a three-cornered tie. The Kittles play the San Benito Greyhound Pups next week and if the Pups win, San Benlto replace Weslaco as the third corner, of the tie. If the Kitten 1 win. they will still be tied with Donna and McAllen because thus far they have played one game less.

Had the Bullpups won the contest with Donna, which they lost by a 7-6 score after their star and captain, Lsnnie had been carried frOT. the with a head Injury, they would have had a record of six wins and no losses. The San Benito Pups forfeited their game to McAllen this week. McAllen Junior High School officials and Coach Ike Emery are Insisting that the original schedule of six games for each team be played out. At least two other coaches are contemplating ths scheduling of other games to break the tie rather than play off the tie between the tied clubs.
