A i I ir Lions Again Lock Gates For Drills Against Big Springers Harlow and Boyd Improve; Title Game Here Saturday May Attract 7,500 Fans By TOM PENN There was strong evidence Tuesday afternoon that the 3rownwood Lions were again brewing up one of their special 'mystery menus" for serving here Saturday when they set 3A quarterfinal championship table for some Steers from Big Spring. Chief Chef Roland (Slim) Warren, who two weeks ago padlocked the stadium gates in order to make sure no one would find out what kind of dis- I4ON Jesse Soliz, left, and Bill Harlow played leading roles this year in helping the Brown- MooA Lions reach the 3A quarter-final playoff here against Big Spring.

Plenty of experience, and rough.

Jimmy Porter, little lighter than most Steers come but a fighter. Rushes hard and likes to block punts, plays alert every down. Like Medlln, Porter may grab all-conference rating. Not only on the five-man line but a youth whose play has been perhaps the most outstanding highlight at Big Spring is tall, Buddy Cosby, 190-pound linebacker. I was Cosby who kept Brownwood's ace, Ray Masters, bottled up.

And it has been his way of doing against all opposition. He's only a junior. SPEAKING of Cosby, there came to us not long ago a letter from Mrs. B. E.

Hugglns of Big Spring and who formerly here. Enclosed with her letter was a clipping about Buddy, which was written by Tommy Hart, Big Spring sportswriter. "Buddy Cosby, of the Big Spring football team who this corner re gards as the state's best high schoo. linebacker, says the biggest thril he ever got in football was the drubbing the Steers handed Brown wood," Hart wrote. "Cosby got Ws kicks out of the outcome of the Brownwood game which ended with the Big Spring era on the long end of a 13-6 score because he remembers all too we! the reception he and his mates got in Brownwood last year, when Big Spring experienced a 33-81 HcUog "It wasn't the size of the score Buddy recalls, but rather how the Lions went about it.

"A pretty good drill," was Coach Warren's comment today. "We made some headway on a few things of Importance and we'll hold another long workout session this afternoon, concentrating mostly on offensive plays." Warren and his Lions were much relieved when they found rugged Bill Harlow, center, and Kenneth Boyd, guard, taking part in the drills without showing signs of wear and tear from injuries sustained Monday. Harlow got a vicious lick on his neck, which almost sidelined the 188-poundcr, while Boyd rchurt his shoulder. Just for insurance. Warren is End Don Clark at Boyd's offensive guard position while Henry Ford and Don Morris are being given the same treatments at Boyd's linebacker spot.

It is no secret that Warren plans to cut loose with an aerial barrage against the heavy Steers. That's quite easy to understand since the Lions were able to dent the Blgr Spring forward wall for only 48 yards when they lost to the West Texans earlier this year in a 13-6 non-conference scrap. And in Fullback Ray Masters and Halfback Boley Embrey, the Lions have just the throwing arms keep the Steers guessing. Masers has chunked 149 times and completed 77 for 929 yards and hree touchdowns. Embrey, who didn't begin regular work hi the Jrqwnwood backfield until a short time ago, has tossed 25 times, competing 10 for 195 yards and three Another big give-away on this passing strategy comes from the fact that Halfback Olen Franks, second high scorer for the Lions, will not be able to play because of a wrenched knee.

The swivel-hipped artist has turned over his duties to Jerry Elledge and Larry Brown, a couple of steady pass receivers. Jerry has bagged 12 for 221 yards and three TD's while Brown has snagged five for 98 and one touchdown. While the brilliant services of Franks' will be sorely missed, the Lions have uncovered another running power in Halfback James Ellis, a kid whose play against Cleburne was one of the highlights of the game. Ellis runs with much the same power that Masters uses. He hasn't learned the art of weaving like Big Ray, but he's dangerous enough like he is.

Most of his playing time has been spent in the secondary at a defensive halfback post. But when Franks got hurt, this newcomer stepped in to plug the gap in splendid fashion. Big Spring hopes to offset this Brownwood passing attack with Don Swinney, Billy Martin and Jerry Hughes, three of Coach Carl Coleman's defensive halfback standouts. Swinney and Hughes have been out of action most of this month because of injuries, but both are expected to be ready for this all-important showdown classic. Offensively, the Steers will trot out two backfield stars who have better all-season scoring marks than Brownwood's Masters, a 185-pound jet packace who is being billed by most observers as the best high school back in the state, C.

Armistead, Steer fullback, has driven for 1,059 yards on 188 carries while his teammate, Carlisle (Frosty) Robison, has piled up 986 yards on 134 carries, Robison, with 78 points, is the leading scored for Big Spring. That is just one point under Franks' record. Masters has scored a total of 128 points to gallop far out-front in District 2-AAA scoring. The burly fellow has carried the ball 131 times for 968 yards and, counting his passing, has compiled, a grand offensive total of 1,897 yards. Those are just samples of what an expected crowd of some 7,800 fans may witness here Saturday afternoon.

Blend all of that with two hard-charging lines and the mixing will be something worth time and travel to see. Meanwhile, Brownwood High School officials were rushing plans to completion today for enlarging the seating capacity at Lion Stadium. Two sections of 480 seats each have been placed at the north and south ends of the big concrete stand for reserved seat customers. Another block of 1,400 bleacher seats have been installed behind the south end zone for general admission fans and still another small section has been spotted behind the north end zone area. A block of 900 reserved seat tickets went on sale this morning at Weakley-Watson Hardware Company.

These tickets will call for seats in Sections and the ones located at each end of the concrete stand. Ticket officials reported this morning that sales were moving steadily but that there had been no big rush.

Payne College's Yellow Jacket basketball team kept pace with powerful East Texas State for nearly a half here Tuesday night but couldn't stay up with the Lions, who chalked up a convincing 81-62 victory. It was the season opener for both crews and an Intra-conference struggle for the Jackets of the Texas Conference and the Lions of the Lone Star loop.

The tilt started off with both teams showing first-game tension and missing most of the shots. The lead changed hands six time in the first quarter and the count was knotted twice before the East Texans went ahead for good. East Texas held a 32-24 margin at halftlme and after that the Yellow Jackets kept'slipping behind. Jim Miller of ETS grabbed individual scoring honors by dropping in seven field goals and adding five free tosses for 19 points. Pacing the Howard Payne scoring attack was Damon Miller, 6-6 plvotman, and DAn Owen, sharp- shooting forward, who canned 14 points each.

The Yellow Jackets play host to Southwest Texas State Friday and Saturday nights In Brownwood to open their home non-conference stand. FQ FT PF TT Howird (0?) White 1 Boyd 3 D.

BICE PUCES 3 OH MYTHICAL 11 McHan, Johnson Unanimously Named To UP's AII-SWC Team By ED FITE DALLAS, Dec. McHan of Arkansas, a throwback to the old-time "trlple-threaters," and Kosse Johnson of Rice, a fullback whose power running belles his 178 pounds, stand out as the unanimous choices on the 1953 United Press' All-Southwest Conference team. There was little indecision about most of the spots on the mythical team picked by United Press Sports writers and conference scouts, but the handsome McHan and rugged Johnson left no doubt at all of their superiority in the minds of the 16 balloters.

McHan was the circuit's top passer, the total offense pacesetter and leading punter, while Johnson led the loop in rushing, scoring and klckoff returns. A Maximum 80 Points These performances netted them the maximum of 80 points, counting five points for a first-team nomination and three for a second- team vote. With Johnson as the bellwether, co-champion Rice will carry three all-conference players into its -New Year Day Cotton Bowl engagement against Alabama. Texas, the other co-champion, Arkansas and Baylor each placed two men, Texas and Texas Christian one each. Only Southern Methodist failed to scratch.

Rounding out the backfield with McHan and Johnson were Jerry Coody of Baylor, the only repeater from the 1952 team as a halfback, and Don Ells of Texas who nosed out Baylor's Fran (Cotton) Davidson for the quarterback spot in one of the only two close races for top position. The 204-pound line was composed of Ail-American end Carlton Massey of Texas and Floyd Sagely of Arkansas at the terminals: James Ray Smith of Baylor, the only junior on the team, and Dick Chapman of Rice, at the tackles; Morgan Williams of TCU and Phil Branch of Texas at the guards, and Leo Rucka of Rice at center. Williams Next Highest Williams was the second highest point collector with 72 out of a possible 80 points. Chapman, Branch and Rucka had 70 each; Smith 69; Sagely and Massey 66 each, and Coody and Ellis 61 each. SWINNEY, HUGHES RETURN Big Spring Defensive Backs Shake Injuries By TOMMY HART Herald Sports Editor BIG SPEING, Dec.

2-Coach Carl Coleman is hoping for a return to action of two of his defensive halfbacks, Don Swinney and Jerry Hughes, when the Big Spring Steers meet Brownwood in Brownwood in their Class AAA bi- district game Saturday afternoon. Swlnney, the best pass defense player on the club, was sidelined irt the Laraesa game Nov. 6 and hasn't seen action since. Hughes went out of action in the game Nov. 13.

Both suited out for the Sweet Thanksgiving Day, Spring lost, 14-13, but ig Spring aleman water which Coach Coleman thought it unwise to let either pjay. Though the present Big Spring team has won only seven of ten games, this is the highest scoring steep team since 1031. The 1853 Steers have tallied 234 points against 87 for the opposition. The Steers started slowly enough, yielding 46 points in its against San AAAA clubs, then ripped in a row, in- uucgew at the ex- two AngelQ The off inrgwMiw, the first iw i before in the When the to Si CAM PRICES Paso High after the game had ended in a 27-27 tie. Against AAA competition, the Steers have yielded only 41 points while scoring 150.

J. C. Armistead, the senior back who scored both touchdowns against Brownwood in that previous meeting, is the team's lead' ing ground gainer with an aggregate pickup of 1059 yards. Junior Frosty Robison, who is right behind him, is the club's leading scorer with 78 points. Once again, the Longhorns will depend upon their massive line Coleman can field a primary averaging 198 pounds per man but It is not his best lineup.

The heaviest man in the forward wail is James (Tiny) Ellison, 285-pound guard, who, like Armistead, is after his fourth letter. Armistead, Ellison, Wayne Med lin, Jimmy Porter, J. W. Thompson, Frank Long, Paschall Odom, Louis Stlpp ana Billy Martin of Pie offensive platoon are seniors. Juniors on the teams include Robison, Linebacker Buddy Coapy, Dickie Milam, Bob Jones, Don Reynolds, Tammy McAdams (who not suit out due to an injury), Ronnie Wooten, Brick Johnson, Joe Liberty and John Birdweli.

Sttloseph ASPIRIN Davison got 59 points to push Ellis, while Rice's Kenneth Paul earned 64 points to come close to a first team guard slot. Ellis rated as the second best total offense gainer in the circuit although his team finished in a tie for the cellar, while Coody rated his berth on power running, sharp blocking and crack defensive play. All four backs, in fact, were equally as adept on defense as they were on the attack. Second Team With Paul and Davidson as the top vote-getters, the second team also included Ed Bernet of SMU (44 points) and Gllmer Spring of Texas (33) at ends; Herb Gray-of Texas (47) and Jack Gunlock of Army's Blaik Is Named UP's By RICHMAN NEW YORK, Dec.

Regarding his players' convincing victory over the Middles last week, Blaik said their spirit, like topsy, "just grew." "The feeling of confidence simply grew from week to week," Blaik added, "and the team was certainly 'up' for Navy.

I've had bet ter personnel since I've been here at Army, but I've never had more determined team. They wanted to play. Their intense desire made up for 'their lack of football ability." Until last a a no Cadet currently attending the academy had ever seen Army beat Navy. The soldiers' last victory over the sailors came in 1849 when Army romped, 38 to 0. "Everything went more or less as we planned it in the Navy game," Blaik declared.

"We had a 'good book' oh what Navy could do and couldn't do, thanks to Paul Amen, our end coach. Paul scouted Navy most of the season and did a fine job." Not At Peak Although Army always considers it a successful season if it beats Navy, his playerj did not reach their peak agahut the Mlddlei Blaik explained, "We played our best game of the season against Pennsylvania," said Blaik, referring to the 21 to 14 conquest. Blaik loses 14 more varsity players iii June, but he ii confident those remaining will make "a respectable showing" next fall.

Baylor, and Dougal Cameron, Texas. Now HOlf ta Mexican Labor Contract Hit By Calif. Leader EDITORS: This is the last of three dispatches on the wetback situation in California). By SCOTT BAILLIE SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. George Wilson, president of the California Farm Bureau Federation, blasts the Mexican labor contract as unworkable and tabs It as the key reason for the increase in wetbacks in California.

"Any insinuations that the farmers actually prefer to use wets is a He," Wilson said. "But what can a man do when he is desperate for 30 days of stoop labor and finds that under the contract.he has to hire a laborer for 60?" That's only one of the bugs farmers say Is in the contract. Approximately 65,000 farmers belong to the California Farm Bureau Federation, or about two- thirds of those in California. The contract, officially the migrant labor agreement of 1951, calls for Mexico to provide much needed Held labor to U. S.

farmers. Defects Listed Wilson lists some of the defects in the contract as follows: 1. The minimum wage set by Mexican government fs above the scale paid U. S. workers In the same kind of work.

2. Even when a worker breaks his contract, and about 20 per cent of them do, the farmer has to pay for the man's transportation home. The rate is $15 each. 3. The Mexican government has pressured farmers into taking out occupational insurance policies for their help although there is no provision for it in the contract.

And Mexico often specifies the company to deal with. 4. The contract Itself Is too inflexible. The 60-day employment period is one example. Farmer's can't pass the labor around from their farm to another even If it is needed.

Farmers Are Scapegoats Wilson thinks farmers are being made into scapegoats for an illegal alien situation of which the wetbacks are only a part. "Last January," Wilson said, "Sen. McCarran said there were from three to five million illegal aliens in the states. I think the bulk of them are in Industry where they carry their own Social Security and union cards. "There probably are as many wetbacks working in San Francisco hotels right now as on the farms." Wilson says the best answer is to work out a new contract which is satisfactory to all parties.

Mexican Labor Needed "Mexican labor will be needed in the states as long as employment is as high as it Is," Wilson said. "Sugar beets, cotton and fruits must have outside help to produce them. If we can Wake a legal, workable program with Mexico the farm bureaus are ready to go all out to eliminate the wets." The American Farm Bureau Federation met in Dallas three months ago and drafted a set of recommendations for revising the present contract. The new program, which was presented to the government as an alternative program rather than a substitute, seeks to eliminate all the bugs enumerated by Wilson. It also provides for withholding 10 per cent of a worker's pay until he has finished his stint and actually is crossing the border home.

Under this plan, a farmer also could discharge any help which doesn't pan out.

1,128 Submit Bids For Right to Drill On Texas Tidelands AUSTIN, Dec. state of Texas considered high bids totaling more than $32 million Wednesday for the right, to drill on 415,000 acres of the Texas tidelands. All told, oil companies submitted 1,128 bids with a gross amount of $75,076,422.32. a a and other coastal states were given control of their tidelands in legislation passed earlier this year by the 83rd Congress. The cash bonus of $32.376,060.86 offered by the successful bidders will go to the Texas permanent school fund.

That fund now totals than a quarter of a billion dollars. "This is not only the biggest sale we've ever had," said Land Commissioner a Giles," there never has been anything Jike this anywhere in the world." The high single bid was $3,065,880 by Gulf Oil Corp. for drilling rights on a 5,760 acre tract off Nueces county. Magnolia Petroleum Corp. entered the noxt highest $2,609,280 and $1,923,840 for tracts of the same size, adjoining Aransas and Jefferson counties.

Grand Champion Honors Go Big Spring Steer By ft At COFF EV CHICAGO. Dec. at the International Livestock Exposition Wednesday WAS still focused on 19-year-old Dick Carey and his disqualified Aberdeen-Angus steer, even though judges began selection of a grand champion barrow. Carey was to meet with William Wood Prince, chairman of the show's board of directors, to press his appeal against the steer's removal as junior show champion. The animal was disqualified as over age.

Meanwhile, three more steers belonging to two other Wisconsin boys were barred from the exposition. A Hereford owned by 18-year-old Pat Hennessey, a member of the same 4-H and Future Farmers club as Carey, was disqualified when officials, learned the animal's ownership had changed since April 1, a violation of rules. Two More Barred Ralph Schaff, 17. DodRcville, Wis. had two animals barred.

He was a member of the same clubs as the other boys. Officials ordered Hennessey's removed from the snow they discovered it had been shown at the AR-Sar-Ben stock show In Omana. last September by a Boys Town youth. It was subsequently sold to Hennessey, they learned. Superintendent of Cattle Horace Walker said Hennessey had sold the steer, one of six he entered in the International, and that the case was closed.

Late Tuesday Carey changed his mind and decided to keep his steer In the Junior champion pen overnight. Earlier officials had torn down the champion sign from the pen. Then Prince told Carey to move the animal from the pen, and the youth agreed. Changes His Mind He got a halter and was waiting for Walker to bring him a release slip when he suddenly decided not to move the steer "until this thing Is settled." The grand champion is Lone Star, a white-faced Hereford owned by 18-yenr-old Sue White, Big Spring, Tex. It was to bo sold Wednesday.

Sue, the third girl to show the top winning fat steer, said she paid $189 for Lone Star as a calf. The steer weighed 1015 pounds. The reserve champion is Little Stuff, the Angus steer owned by Carlylc Grcathouse, 18, Hlndsboro, 111., which was made junior show champion when Carey's steer was disqualified.
