AGGIES AND RICE
OWLS TODAY 4: 15
|
A Great Deal of Excitement is Prom- |
ised All Who Witness Events at |
Kyle Field |
|
The Aggies enter their third dual |
track meet here today when they 0 |
up against the Rice Institute squad |
on Kyle Field.
Considerable rivalry has been
workred up between these teams by
reason of late events and a very in-
teresting affair is promised all who
see it. The Aggies won over S. M.
U. and lost to State, while the Owls
lot to Bavlor and defeated State
University by ten points.
Rice has one of the best sprinters
in the State in Lindsey; but Weir is
in every way his equal and in their
contest here previous records will
very probably be lowered if condi-
tions are favorable. Both are ten
second flat men.
Clutter is putting his greatest de-
pendence in Keen who has been high
point man in both the S. M. U. and
Texas U. meets. Sanders has been
doing some excellent work in the 440
yard dash and the relays, and his
work will have a great deal to do
with the showing made here today.
The first event of the meet will
start at 4:15. All races except the
220 yard dash and 220 yard hurdles
will finish in front of the circus seats.
All weight events will be held in
front of the baseball grand stand
along the first base line, on the base-
ball diamond. The pole vault and
broad jump will be at the broad
jump pit at the east of the bleachers.
The hich jump will be at the high
jump pit.

HIGH SCHOOL OF

THIS DISTRICT,
Petition is Being Circulated to Voie!
a Tax of Fifty Cents on the |
District.
The children in College Station are |
to have the benefit of a first class]
high school next year without going |
out of this district to attend it if the |
plans being worked on by Professor |
| Martin L. Hayes can be consummated |
lin time to present a prepared budget |

DUAL TRACK MEET | the State Legislature last summer the | Greenhouse Crops and
Campus. At the called session of
Rural School Aid Law was amended |

much as ten per cent of the real es-

| exceed the amount that private own- |
ers pay on the same property, but
| sufficient to enable such districts to |the treatment of the soil,
maintain a nine months’ public school. |
A petition is now being circulated |
to call an election for the purpose of |
voting a fifty cent tax on this dis-|
trict.
The immense value to the A. and |
M. College of a first class high school
is easy to imagine. In fact no great-
er convenience could be comprehended
by those who are at present sending
their small children under dangerous
inconveniences to a school five miles
away than the establishment of such
a school in their immediate neighbor-
hood, and Professor Hayes thinks |
that a little concerted action at this |
time on the part of the College com-
munity will produce the desired re- |
sults.

THREE BOOKS BY
DR. TAUBENHAUS
ARE ADVERTISED
New York Piblichers are Now Offer- |
ing for Sale Three of His Books
Recently Published.
A descriptive and illustrated ad- |
vertising pamphlet received at this
College from E. P. Dutton and Com-
pany, 681 Fifth Avenue, New York
| City, contains a one page advertise-
| ment of three books being offered
| for sale by that company and of
which Dr. J. J .Taubenhaus, Chief of
the Division of Plant Pathology and
Physiology of the Texas Agricul-
| tural Experiment Station is the
| author.
Under a 3x5 illustration taken
from his book on “Diseases of
Con-
trol, the following summary and
|comment is given: “Diseases of
Their Con-
trol” brings together all available in-
| to the extent of allowing those dis-|formation on the diseases of green-
house crops and places it at the dis-
posal of greenhouse men. Eighty-
two pictures illustrate in detail the
| effect of the different diseases. The
six parts discuss the character and
the cul-
tural considerations of moisture and
light, diseases of greenhouse. vege-
tables, diseases of ornamentals.
| greenhouse pests, and methods of
control. Diseases are analyzed sci-
Symptoms are listed;
the organism is described; control
of each is outlined. Of most value
to persons in the greenhouse indus-
try, the book is also of scientific
worth to biologists and of practical
use to all gardeners.”
The advertisement of the other
two books is as follows:
“The Culture and Diseases of the
Sweet Pea, by J. J. Taubenhaus,
$2.50.” 5
“Diseases of Truck Crops and
Their Control, by J. J. Taubenhaus,
| $5 .00”
Although it is absolutely necessary | -
to vote the fifty cent tax as ghe frst |
step toward the attainment of the |
coveted end, there is another step that
must follow and that will call for
more unselfishness on the part of the
College people than the first. There
is very little taxable real state prop- |
erty in College Station, in fact except- |
ing the few commercial enterprises |
operated on the Campus and the rail- |
roads which intersect the College |
land, the total of which could hardly
be said to be an appreciable aggre-
gate in view of the required amount,
there is none. So it is incumbent on
those hopeful for the success of the
project to render for taxation their
personal property—household goods,
automobiles, musical instruments,
bonds, ete., for supplementary funds
under the Rural Aid Law. In the
earliest plans for this school, the will-
ingness of the people to do that thing
cents (50e¢) will admit to the field.
was depended upon by all who may
be said to have become at all enthus-
iastic in contemplating the possibil-
ity of it.
There is one other source of sup-
| port for this school and that is con-
tiguous districts which could by the
| favorable vote of their people con-
solidate with the College Station dis-
trict. The Shirock district has al-
ready promised to send all pupils
above the third grade here in the event
that a high school of eleven grades
was established. An invitation has
been extended to other districts, and it
is considered probable that they will
come in. Even should they vote neg-
atively on the matter of consolidation,
at least a goodly number of transfers
could still be depended upon to give
their support to a school here.
