Spring football at FHS opens with 25 candidates
Twenty five candidates report for the first spring football workouts at FHS as others plan to join after track and field meets. The spring session will be the last due to a new ban on spring football, forcing schools to redirect time to other activities. Clarence Pfeil and Johnny Langerhans participated in first conference games in Houston. Pfeil earned three hits in the 8 6 win, but went hitless in the 8 0 victory second game. Langerhans had one at bat in the other game with no hit. Uncle Billy Disch praised Pfeil as an improved speedy outfielder from Fredericksburg. Klaemner remains unsigned amid rumors he wants the Texas League but may stay with the St. Paul Club.
