STEPHENVILLE, Sept. 30 - Playing consistent football, the John Tarleton Plowboys opened their season here Saturday afternoon by defeating the Cox Private School of Waco, 18-0. The Plowboys, held in check in the first period by the lighter Waco club, hit their stride in the second.
Hebison, shifty back, broke through for the first counter. Hebison was injured on the play and removed from the game. Waco took to the air in the secon period opening the way for Thompson, Plowboy half, to intercept a pass and dash 40 yards for the second score.
Waco was unable to gain consistently through the air. Bartley, one-armed fullback, starred with his long punts, and Taylor, halfback, proved a shifty ball carrier. Waco earned four first downs to eight for the Plowboys.
