Stratton Plays Scoreless Tie Opens Season for Two Colored Teams
Stratton High Bulldogs and Bowling Bears of Lewisburg battled to a scoreless tie at R. M. I. park in the season debut. Bright and Brown led Stratton early with four straight first downs. Greenbrier pushed back near the goal-line before misdirection stalled. Plant of Stratton intercepted a Bowling pass and returned 40 yards, while both teams relied on aerials that failed to produce. Coach Dandridge’s inexperienced line showed promise for a strong unit ahead. In the Big League note, Rip Collins, former major league pitcher, returns to Texas Rangers law enforcement after a baseball career with New York, Boston, Detroit, and St. Louis.
