RATLIFF Associated Press Sports Writer A High School Hall of Fame in which football heroes of a half century will get honors they would receive no other way is in the offing. Efforts have been made for some time to obtain recognition for the boys who built the Texas Inter- scholastic League into a nationally famous organization. The Texas Sports Writers Association would not sponsor a high school hall of fame on grounds it would detract from the already established Texas Sports Hall of Fame. The Texas High School Coaches Association talked about a high school hall of fame but finally eliminated the players from it and went only with the coaches under the title Hall of Honor. THE GREATS of schoolboy foot ball had to get their honors by what they did in college and there were many boys who starred in high school who failed to make it in college for one reason or an other. In the case of Boody John son, who always will be considered the finest player in Texas school boy history, an injury prevented a continuance of his stardom in college. Putt Powell, sports editor of the Amarillo News Globe who has been associated with high school foot ball for more than 30 years, ad vanced an idea that could bloom into a Texas High School Hall of Fame that would take in fellows who were great enough as school boys to gain the honors a hall of fame implies. The Breckenridge Chamber of Commerce responded in a hurry. It wants to back a High School Hall of Fame in the West Texas city that long has been associated with winning football. Brecken ridge is a corner stone of school- /n tram ura Is Class A basketball playoffs will begin Monday, Charles E. Mc- Candless, intramural director, an nounced Wednesday. Five teams are already in the finals: Sqd. 5, Sqd. 7, Sqd. 8, A-3 and Sqd. 2. Results in Wednesday’s Class A handball games: Sqd. 6 over A-2 2- 1; and Sqd. 14 defeated Sqd. 3, 3- 0. Freshman flag football winners Wednesday were B-2 over Sqd. 10, 6-0; A-2 defeated Sqd. 9, 14-12; Sqd. 11 v/on over C-l, 14-6; F-l beat Sqd. 13, 10-0; and G-l de feated Sqd. 15, 24-0. Winning players for F-l were Bill Lyon, Coy Mitchell, Mike Holman, Allen Morris, Jim M i 1 s t e a d , Andy Vaughan, Dale McQuin, John Slodn, Joe Maxwell, Steve Doug las and Art Bari-ea. Horseshoe pitching results, Class B division, were Sqd. 12 over C-2, 2-1; D-l defeated Sqd. 2, 2-1; 1-3 won over Sqd. 8, 3-0, and Sqd. 1 won over C-3, 3-0. Freshman win ners for 1-3 were Edward Davis, Carl Haglund, Mike Resner, Jack Jackson, John Seate and Steve Freeman. boy football. It has produced four state champions and two ties for championships over the years. As far back as 1929, Breckenridge had a state champion. THE IDEA is to establish a hall of fame in Breckenridge, with a building suitable for storage of trophies and mementoes of the greats of Texas schoolboy football, and with a big annual banquet at which there would be several honorees installed. Deceased as •well as' live athletes would be taken in. There have been some 250,000 boys play football in Texas in the 42 years of the Interscholastic League. But before 1920—the year the league started—were many who should be honored, too. Bo McMillin, Rip Collins, Ben Lee Boynton, Matty Bell—those are only a few. But this gives an idea of what the Texas High School Hall of Fame might do. should be Johnson, of course, the first man honored. Leo Balwin, the four-sport star of Wichita Falls; Jack Sisco, the finest center Texas schoolboy foot ball ever had; Blue Smith, Cle burne’s mighty runner of the first state championship game; Chris Cortemeglia, star of Bryan’s 1921 championship team, and Buster Mills, Ranger’s fabulous kicker, would make a fine opening of the Hall of Fame.

Many of those fellows did not star in college. Some didn’t even go. But they should be rewarded for what they did on the schoolboy gridirons of Texas.

Foldberg alternated his first, or Old Sarge team, with the Gig ’em unit at appropriate times, pitting fresh gridders against tired Frogs to wear them down. His strategy produced four drives that pene trated TCU’s 20-yard line, al though only one of them produced a score. With the Frogs leading 20-14 late in the fourth period, Foldberg sent in his Lightning unit, which had been saved the entire game just to face wornout TCU. It took a great defensive save on an! pass thy to stop the last-4 drive by the fresh unit. After the game, Foldberj he thought his squad “has lit stride.” Welcome To COACH NORTON’S PANCAKE HOUSE featuring Special Lunches Monday Thru Friday 11:30 til 2:00 Also Steaks, Shrimp andOi Fine Foods.
