Tilt With Ysleta
Entire Team Expected
To Be Ready For Battle
At El Paso Saturday
It was hack to work for the
Sweetwater Mustangs. District
3AA titlists. Monday as they
donned practice uniforms and
drilled for the first time since
playing San Angelo last Thurs
day. ,
With about three days prac-
tice all they'll get before they
meet the hi district challenge of
Ysleta's Indians of District
4-AA at El Paso, the Mustangs
got down to business quickly
after the usual limbering up ex-
ercise.
Linemen and backs drilled
separately and polished up their
regular plays. The linemen,
who after all hold the key to
the touchdown door, swung that
door wide time after time in
scrimmage against the B team.
The team spirit was good and
coaches cautioned more than
one player against "trying too
hard." as they took no chances
on scrimmage injuries.
The Mustang squad cams out
of the San Angelo tussle with
no injuries and the entire team
should be ready, physically, to
meet the Indian challenge for
supremacy in the bi-distric*.

tussles, the Sun b?'vl, wiil be

I In Mythical Pick
By Richard M. Morehead
I I'nited Press Correspondent
I Four from the champion Tex-
! as Aggies team, four from the
Texas club that beat them, two
from Southern Methodist, and
one from Texas Christian -—
that's the United Press All-
Southwest conference football
team of 1941.
. Selected by coaches and sports
writers who followed the tur-
j bulent season most closely, the
team is without a weakness. It
has experience and savvy,
weight and speed, outstanding
I pass receivers, and a backfield
j filled with veterans who can
run, pass, punt and block as
I well as form a great secondary
defense.
Let's take the backfield first,
j lor it's something that every
coach would like to find in his
j Christmas stocking.
P,:-te John Layden, the
Texas fullback whose pass-
es and runs were at least.
50 per cent of the Long-
horns' great offense, was the
I only unanimous choice on

.NEW YORK, Dec. 2—(UP)—
Now that the Orange bowl fin-
ally has jellied, look, 'em over
and take your choice for the
New Year's day football extra-
vaganzas:
Rose bowl — Oregon State
(beaten twice) vs. Duke (unbeat-
en, untied).
Sugar bowl—Fordham (beat-
j en once) vs. Missouri (ditto).
Cotton bowl—Texas A. & M.
j (beaten once) vs. Alabama
j (beaten twice).
Orange bowl—Georgia (beaten
j once, tied once) vs. Texas Christ-
Man university (beaten twice,
| lied once).
The entry of Alabama and
TCU into the bowl program
surprised. It left unbeaten and
untied Duquesne out of the ma-
jor bowl assignments.
Alabama and TCU, however,
are a pair of bowl old reliables.
The Crimson Tide has gone to
the Rose bowl five times, win-
ning three games, losing one and
tying one. TCU has won two
games in the Sugar bowl and

! the team. lOvcry person vot-
ing agreed that Layden he-
longed on the first team.
Derace Moser of the Aggies
came close behind, for his pass-
I ing, punting and running was a
principal factor in the fine sea-
son of a team that few people,
in September, thought would get
anywhere. Except for Texas, the
Aggies came all the way with-
out a defeat.
For the backfield, SMU's
Preston Johnston, the rugged
fellow who played almost every
down and never played a poor j
game, got the third most bal-
lots. Johnston is a prodigious j
punter, a great defensive play-
| er. and a genuine threat as pass- j
! er.
Jack Crain of Texas, th.' j
bounding little guy who leads!
the conference scorers with 77 J
points for the season, nosed out j
' Baylor's Jack Wilson for the j
! other spot in the first-team back-
| field. Grain's ball-carrying abil- j
I ity made him a marked player |
I for three years, but they never t
| kept the free-wheeling youngster j
in check for long.
Opposition punters monthsj
ago quit kicking them to Crain
when he was playing safety!
for Texas. Crain is a remarkable
quick-kicker, a good defensive
man, a fair passer, and a good
field general.
Baylor's great Jack Wil-
son lacked hut two points
of making th,-> first team, al-
though he sal on the bench
with injuries almost as much
time as he played. As Wilson
went, so went Baylor.
"Wilson would have been the
greatest back in the Southwest
and an all-America, if he hadn't
been hampered by injuries all
season," wrote one metropolitan
sports editor who gave the Bay-
lor star a second-place vote on
the basis of his part-time play.
Kyle Gillespie of Texas Christ-
ian and Bob Brumley of Rice
were other fine backs whose
chances were ruined by injury.
Jack Russell, Baylor end, and
Joe Pasqua. S.M.U. tackle, are
all-conference players from 1940
whose ballots were reduced this
time because injuries hampered
their season.
James Sterling, who with Mos-
er. was the only regular to re-
turn from A & M.'s powerful
11040 eleven, repeated as all-con-
ference end. Sterling was never
spectacular, tint he was forever I
in the ball game.. He could do I
everything that a good end is!
Aggies; Spark.1-
supposed to do.
The other Wingman, Mal-
colm kitnei- of Texas, is one
one of the most stylish play-
ers |-ver to wear the orange
ami white. He was fine at
pass-catching, fleet afoot and
a daring defensive man. One
of Kutner's outstanding tal-
ents was for downfield
the
blocking, in which
as team excelled.

Pull the Trigger on
Lazy Bowels, with
Ease for Stomach, too
When constipation brings on acid in-
digestion, stomach upset, bloating, dizzy
J spells, gas, coated tongue, sour taste and
| bad breath, your stomach is probably
! "crying the blues" because your bowels
i don't move. It calls for Laxative-Senna
to pull the trigger on those lazy bowels,
combined with Syrup Pepsin for perfect
j ease to your stomach in taking. For years,
| many Doctors have given pepsin prepa-
i rations in their prescriptions to make
J medicine more agreeable to a touchy stom-
I ach. So be sure your laxative contains
Syrup Pepsin. Insist on Dr. Caldwell's
Laxative Senna combined with Syrup Pep-
sin. See how wonderfully the Laxative
Senna wakes up lazy nerves and muscles
in your intestines to bring welcome relief
from constipation. And the good old
Syrup Pepsin makes this laxative so com-
fortable and easy on your stomach. Even
finicky children love the taste of this
pleasant family laxative. Buy Dr. Cald-
well's Laxative Senna at your druggist
today. Try one laxative combined with
Syrup Pepsin for ease to your stomach, too.

Bowl, Concentrate
On Oregon Game
AUSTIN, Dec. 2 — (UP) —
The University of Texas I.on^
horns settled down determined-
lv today "to knock the socks of
Oragon" in the season's closing
game, after declining ;in Orange
bowl invitation.
The bid was out up to the
team yesterday afternoon by
Coach Dana X. Bible when the
squad reassembled after a va-
cation since last Thursday.
Renumbering that Oregon
Slate. Rose bowl defenders, beat
Oregon but 12 to 7 last week,
the Longhorns will be out to
pile up so big a score against
the Pacific coast visitors here
that it will make Texas outrank
the Rose bowl winner.
The Orange bowl rejection
announcement by Coach Bible
after a closed session with the
players was
."The University of Oregon
game next Saturday extends
Texas' season 30 days longer
than it usually has run. The
boys have decided they will de-
cline all invitations to appear
as a team in a post season
game. We are going to concen-
trate on beating Oregon and
then hang up our uniforms."
In the nine games already
played this season the Long-
horns have been seen by 223,700
people which breaks attendance
records for Texas and is more
people than saw 10 games play-
ed last year. At least 25,000 are
expected for the closing game.
SCHOOL CONFERENCE
AUSTIN, Dec. 2 — (UP.) —
The annual conference of school
administrators, teachers, train-
ers, and trustees will be held
here Jan. 8-10, State Supt. L. A.
Woods announced today. Con-
servation and defense will be
the conference topics.

We would like to make it
clear right here that no one was
intentiall.v slighted in Sunday's
lineup of Sweetwater Mus-
tangs. There was space for only
so many and no more. Mo^|
pictures of Mustangs were run
in Monday's paper and we hope
to have everyone before the
end of the week.
1—1
We know that in most po.^
tions it's nip and tuck as to
which player will get the start-
ing nod. O. B. Freeman and
Winfred Kemp both play at left
tackle. One is as likely to statl
as the other, each plays aboiw
as much time as the other and
it. would certainly be hard, if
not impossible, to decide which
was the better player. .lack
Forgay and Arthur Swain, left
guards, are two more boys wit^l
hardly a particle of difference
between them. Both are swell
players, one is as likely to start
as the other and each gets to
play about as much as the otli
er. W
The light end position is a
battle between three players —
Homer Robert May, Raymond
Fitzgerald, and A. B. Gill. Fitz-

height and weight, lias been f
