Elimination In School Games On

Many Strong Elevens of Last Season Already Out in 1921

Austin, Texas. Oct. 13th - Reports of high school football games reaching the University Interscholastic League Bureau from all parts of the State show that the process of elimination is beginning to manifest itself, dropping teams by the wayside and blasting the championship hopes of those losing for the first time this year. Among those suffering defeat the last week are as follows: De Leon, Ranger, Masonic Home and School, Cleburne, Miami, Celeste, Mercedes and Terrell.

Very few schools are having their players examined by a physician before allowing them to play. Many accidents would be avoided if this precaution were taken.

From the league records it is found many schools are producing teams this year that have never before been represented upon the gridiron. Some of the notable ones are as follows: Albany, Crowell, Clyde, Eagle Pass, Hedley, Lometa, McLean, Pecan Gap, San Angelo, Sealy, Shamrock, Throckmorton, Tulia, Texline and West Columbia.

The undefeated teams listed by sections follow:
Section 1 - Amarillo, Canadian, Canyon, Childress, Farwell, Floydada, Lubbock, McLean, Pampa, Plainview, Quanah, Shamrock, Tulia and Vernon.
