Alpine Bucks dominate in early 1950s win brackets
Alpine high school teams posted a busy weekend with a 50 to 29 junior game win over Marfa Shorthorns while the varsity fell 54 to 41. Ernest Mendoza led Marfa with 6 feet 4 inch height and the Bucks faced a tough battle as Marfa capitalized on free throws. The Bucks also romped in volleyball 41 to 0 and battled through Pecos Invitational with a 38-37 squeaker over Pecos Eagles and a 57-36 loss to El Paso. Las Hernandez earned all-tournament honors after scoring 14 points in the tournament’s two games. The girls team, plus basketball squads, played at Sanderson with wins for Alpine in all contests and improved to 21–3 in 24 conference games. Mrs. Ray Davis and Mrs. Henry Bilbo visited DeRidder, Louisiana, to see Davis’ husband at Camp Polk.
