for Austin Game Supporters of the Corpus Chrlsti Buccaneers were a bit on the glum side this morning as they thought of the performance against Laredo Friday and looked forward to the struggle with the Austin Maroons this week in a battle of survival in the District 15-AA race Admittedly the Buccaneers were no ball of fire against Laredo They socked over two touchdowns in rapid fire yards order added another and then the Tigers scored two touches 63 ards scrimmage on sensational nlavs lfoi' lhe sctond The crjvd was on senaionai ptds estimated at 20UU0 The sort of play dished out against Laredo won suffice if the Buccaneers are to take Austin and retain a shot at the district championship But the Buccos we think will be ready for the Maroons It must be remembered that it wds a lineup that faced Laredo Against Austin at least so Buccaneer supporters hope most of those regulars including Mike Derrick Kii by David Donnan Kenneth Turner and Bill Tanner will be ready for action Their piesence we believe will make a vast difference in the play Nope it's a little early to give up The Buccos can't be judged on the basis of their play against Laredo This ball club has a real game in
