It was he who secured our games for us and we are due him credit for his good work. l-le had a head for managing men and deserves a place in the heart of every C. C. student. We are very sorry he was afflicted with a crip- pled shoulder during the' first part of the season, for this weakened our team. We wish him success in coaching that team he expects to coach next year and we feel sure that he will turn out a winner. 'S la . . iasgsf A.. LLOYD COLE. .V My , P Jos JONES. Joe Shields, Vega, Texas., Center. Joe was young and Joe Jones, Clarendon, Texas, Right Tackle. Sap tho an inexperienced player at the beginning of the season, developed into a good steady player. l'le had much to learn about the game but what he learned, he learned well: some at the cost of Babe Higgins' fist, so that now what Big Joe doesn't know about the game is not worth men- tioning. l-le had the weight to make a hard hitter and train- ing gave him his ability as a tackler. When he rolled under a play his opponents were trying to force by him it stopped very still. l-le was known thruout the Panhandle as a line'- rnan and for his superior qualities in blocking and tackling. rather green about the game at the beginning of the season, but together with his grit and determined spirit and Coach's good advice, he developed into a fine all around man. Altho he did not get to play enough to win one of the coveted letters he did some mighty good things for the old C. C. and at the same time proved to every one that he would be there strong when the next season rolled around. Looking forward to the time when he will prove his abil- ity and help take in the scalps for our college, we are wishing him well, expecting to see him star. . 110 Joe SHiE1.Ds

HAROLD RiPPr. Bill Combest, Paducah, Texas, Fullbaclc. When Bill first came out for football he took his practice with the scrubs, but Coach's experienced eye'saw some good material in him and he got a chance with the regulars, Coach had not misjudged. He was a good steady player, and his perma- nent smile and ready wit, cheered the eleven thru many long, strenuous periods, to victory for old C. C. Bill, you have earned your C, wear it old top, and when you are thru with it hang it on the wall for it is an incentive to work and an emblem of loyalty to your colors. FRED CONALLY. Harold Rippy, McLean, Texas, Left End. Rip was a sure shot when it came to catching forward passes-he always grabbed ,em-hard ones especially. ln the Ama- rillo High game he jumped into the air, completing a forty- two yard pass and went racing down the field while cheers and cries of wonderment came from the side lines. Again in the Wayland game on the home grounds, he caught a long pass while running at full speed and fell over the line for the first touchdown. Rip is an all around good end and plays like an old head altho this is his first year. . .Q X 'g l i h . A . si. K rf' W' L if .. BILL COMBEST. . Fred Connally, Clarendon, Texas, Right End. Fred comes to us from the Clarendon High School team, where he made a good record as half back. He was exceptionally good at catching forward passes and was put on right end. where he won his place. Tho he was small he was good. and walked away at the end of the season with a HC. He was a good tackler and few men got by him: he was always in the game and used his head. Many of the passes of his opponents fell into his hands. Fred, there is a place on the team for vou next year. lil!! Mg v
