third base while the Arkansas third baseman watches his
teammates attempt to make the play at first base. They
didn’t make it, but the next Bryan batter removed the

Texas Football Schedule
Heavier Than Ever In
By HAROLD V. RATLIFF
Associated Press Sports Writer
Texas will have the most foot
ball in its history this year. There
will be 966 organized teams play
ing for three and one-half months.
Only two teams that took the
field last year have been lost but
line grew in their places. There
will be 33 senior colleges, nine
junior colleges, three professional
teams and 921 high schools.
The senior college field lost one
—Texas College of Tyler, which
has abandoned football.
Last year there were 10 junior
colleges but Paris has pulled out,
leaving only nine. The high
schools, however, are up by nine.
In fact, Texas will have its all-
time record in schoolboy football.
Texas has seven members of the
Southwest Conference. All eight
members of the Lone Star Confer
ence are Texas schools. North
Texas State is in the Missouri Val
ley Conference. There are 12 in
dependents—enough to make vip
a good conference if they ever
could get together.
Here is the year’s lineup:
