Lubbock Teams In Shape For Friday Texas Tech Plays At Oklahoma City Coach Dell Morgan checked over his Texas Tech grid squad Monday afternoon lor possible injuries resulting from Saturday's slam bang victory over the Lubbock Army Air Field eleven in the season's opener, and found the team in top shape. Making certain the boys came through the Army game without injuries, the squad settled down to the task preparing their attack for the Oklahoma A. M. battle Friday night in Taft Stadium, Oklahoma City. With plans for the game is the determination expressed by the Red Raiders to avenge the 6-9 defeat suffered in Tech Stadium last year at the hands of the Cowboys.

Monday's drill "was mostly in the form of a limbering up process for the hard work to come the rest of the week. Most of the practice session was being devoted to the ground attack of the Raiders. With Freddie Brown completing live out of eight passes thrown, three of them for touchdowns, the Red Raiders served warning on future foes that they would be very air minded this season. Brown's passing showed a net gain of 146 yards, which almost doubled the yardage gained by the running game of the Raiders. If the Red Raiders play and hustle as they did against the Army team Saturday night, they stand an excellent chance of gaining that revenge for last year's defeat at the hands of the Sooners.

Coach Morgan said Monday that he planned to start the same lineup against Oklahoma A. M. that opened the game Saturday night Baylor Stars against the Lubbock Field eleven.

Donald Deere Westerners Prep For San Angelo Invasion "Fit as a fiddle, and ready to go" was the way Coach J. Mule Davis summed up the picture out at Lubbock High school Monday afternoon as he checked over the squad after winning the season's opener last Friday from the highly touted Odessa Bronchos. Lubbock won this game 18 to 6.

"The boys are green, and made lots of but they looked good against a bigger and more powerful foe last week," Davis added. few of the boys took some pretty rough knocks in the game, but they were in good shape Monday, and barring injuries this week, will enter the San Angelo game Friday in top shape." The Westerners will be on the road again this week and will invade the lair of one of the strongest teams in the state when they journey to San Angelo for their night battle there. San Angelo opened the season last week with a lusty 38 to 7 victory over Ballinger, and Lubbock scouts at the game reported that the first team of the Bobcats saw very little service in the game. San Angelo is expected to field 11 lettermen against the Westerners. The Westerners went through a long dummy scrimmage session Monday as they mapped new plays to be thrown against the Bobcats.

They followed this with a long defense drill against the tricky formation as used by the San Angelo eleven. Coach Davis promised the boys that workouts would get rougher the rest of the week as the clash between the two undefeated elevens draws near.
