J. H. Neatherly,
r V
secretary of the association, Said
The Texas championship trials will be in Brazos CJolinty
for the first time and will be held*
on the Miller and Longmier ranch
es along Highway 6 near A&M,
Neatherly atatod.
Elimination heats begin at 9 a.
m. Saturday, and the bench show
will be held at 1 p. m. Sunday,!
Semi-final races will atart at 8
a. m. Sunday with the finals echo*
duled for 3:80 p. m.
For the benefit of those not ucj
qualnted with coonhound field trial
procedure, members of the Bravo*
Association explained that ithd
race course Is approximately a
mile and one-half (n length, oveif
which a 4 live coon is dragged be
hind a horse to leave a fine trull
before each heat. The coon Is transj,
ported over the course in a special
ly constructed box which allows
its fur to drag the ground with
out harming the animal.
The “Line” is placed several
yards in front of the “Tr#*”},
which marks the end of the
course and in which another co(nn
is placed during the competition.
In mgny cases the dog taking
the first “Line” prize also is the
first to "Tree,” particularly after
the field is narrowed down to the
semi-finals and finals, and it is
probable that a single dog will
win both field trial championship
cups, as well as the entire $500
championship purse.
Championship cups are on dis
play this week in the window efj
the First National Bank in Bryan.
They include a cup for the “Tree”
Championship, one for the “Line”
Chanipion and orte for the Bench
Show' Champion. A championship
purse of $500 is guaranteed.
The local association reported
last week that some 50 coon dogjs
already were entered from Texas,
Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisi

Into the air by the Longhorns in
the Iasi two minutes, Aggie follow
ers contended the count even.
fttookie Allen, a mblent of New

High School recounted the simi
larity between Thursdays game
and the high j school contest in
which Stlteler’s 1945 Waco High
team tied for the state champion-
tehta.
That game of Thursday in Aus
tin in which Harry Stiteler’s out-
manned Aggie team tied the great
University of Texas team remind
ed me of the game between Harry
Stiteler’s Waco High team of 1945
in the State championship game
against the powerful and favored
Highland Park High team. It also
resulted in a tie.
Against Highlar
High was complete _
the first half, but by
sensational manner Waco held the
Scotties to a one-touchdown lead
for the half. When the teams went
to rest between halves, it seemed

that Highland was going to win
by a most decisive sebre. It ap
parently hdd the power to do s0.
Waco seemed outmanned with littje
or no chance, but between halves
Stiteler had something to aay to
hia boya. In the aecond half it
completely outplayed Highland
Park, tied that team, 7 to 7, and

The Aggies came out with spirt

ball away from the Longhorns most
of the period. Then early in tha
fourth period the Aggies staged a
great drive for the tying score.
