The high altitude of Mexico City had the “Oxy” players pretty welll winded as the last game neared | its end. They had a 19-0 lead and were coasting. A wriggly young| Mexican named “Loco” Rivadeneyra | took the ball on a punt and gal-| loped 90 yards through them for a | touchdown. The game right then was a suc-| cess so far as the Mexican rooters | were concerned They swarmed down on the field, led by a fully armed officer who picked up Riva- deneyra and kissed him violently., The others danced about, whoop- | ing approval. | Some time was required in clear- | ing the gridiron so the game could proceed to its natural end. The local hero and Johnny Carmona, an Occidental player who was born in Mexico City, were carried from the field on the shoulders of the fans. The Occidental players brought home no goal posts, but they were loaded with baskets, serapes and sombreros. | Coach Bill Anderson said the Mexican youths are learning foot- ball and have a world of speed and fight, but have trouble in pull- ing together as a team. - .o A-J BRUNSWICK ALLEY VICTORS Dreamland Forced Out of City League Bowling Tournament 'color.
