Having primed for weeks to revenge the crushing 20-0 defeat of last year, the Leopards "waded into" the Sunset Bisons and gave them a sound beating to the tune of 19 to 0. , In the O.C.-Forest game, the Leopards, although ag carrying a lead of three points till the last ten minutes of the game, met their worst defeat of the season when the Lions "got hotl' and scored three touchdowns in ten minutes. But the fact remains, "Pop" Noah put out a clean, hard-fighting bunch of Leopards. Looking over the games we recall the sterling plays of Stroud, Miller, Goodenough, Webster, Cadenhead, Howard, Kelsey, Kepke, Wymaia, Gore, Erickson, Cook, Davis, and Russell. Truly, it would be hard to find a member of the team who did not give his all. Tom Cook Half s"?' .f M. , , , Af -' .f .,,.. !. .,

Season The Oak Cliff Leopards were led into the Hrst battle of the year by their co-captains, Bill Erickson and Lewis Kelsey. With Wyman, a last year's lineman, at fullback, the Leopards stamped a 22 to 0 score over Grand Prairie for the first victory. The O. C. H. Blue and White team showed fine form both in run- ning and in passing in the second game of their 1929 season. The touch-- down honors this time went to the speedy backiielder, "jakie" Gore, and the vivid co-captain, Bill Erickson. Hindered by nine fumbles, Oak Cliff was held to a scoreless tie by the strongest Poly team in years. The first city series game gave the Leopards their first defeat of the season, at the hands of the Bulldogs, the score was 13 to 7. Oak Cliff came back with its old fight and put over its third tri- umph in five games by giving the Dallas Tech Wolves a sound beating. Doped by all sports writers as underdogs, the fighting Leopards swamped the North Side Steers by the one-sided score of 26 to 0. Again, showing form and fight true to the tradition of Oak Cliff, the Leopards defeated another Fort Worth team, the Central High Pan- thers, by a 7 to 0 victory.
