COLLEGE LAST SATURDAY Aggies Returned to College Having Lost All Contests on Their Last Trip The The Aggies have returned to Col- lege, some of them came in Saturday and the others Sunday. Bible's men came from Austin. They play- ed three games on their trip. The first they lost to Southwestern which was also the loss of the State Cham- pionship. The second game was a 2 to 0 victory for State University at Austin and the victory meant the Southwestern Conference Champion- ship for them. Another game with State was Scheduled for Saturday but inclement weather prevented its being played. Coach James A. Clutter’s men came from Houston, and they too were vietims of Varsity’s athletic prowess although they received knocks from both Baylor and Rice after they had been pushed away from the championship in track by State. This ends the athletic year for A. and M., the history of her champions is written, it is glorious to look upon and it will bring pride to many in after years. Those who have fought on the gridiron to make the records that have been heard and marveled at hundreds of miles away have brought fame to their College and honor to their name. Those foot- ball men will never be forgotten, and the powers of the basketball squad will always be remembered. The rec- ords of the baseball men and the track men are in the natural course of things different, they have failed to achieve for the College that thing we call victory and as a consequence their importance will be dimmer, but no doubt there are men on both teams with ability equal to any other and who have endeavored probably as no others have, and if they continue their names will un- doubtedly sooner or later be con- nected with some enterprise sharing the fame that the 1920 football team and the 1920 Basketball team holds. It was impossible for them to accom- plish that which they intended in the beginning and they should console themselves with that fact. PUBLIC SPEAKING ASS’'N ELECTS OFFICERS TONIGHT * The Public Speaking Association will hold the last and most impor- tant meeting of the year tonight in Room 301 E. E. Building." Officers for next year’s association will be elected. These officers will start actual practice and work in the Public Speaking Association at the beginning of the College year. New members from all classes are invited to be present at tonight’s meeting and get in line for BEE) year’s work. Sop FRESHMAN STOCK JUDGING CONTEST IS GREATEST YET A. C. Mogford Was High Man of Contest With Score of 668 Points Out of Possible 750 The seventh annual Freshman Livestock Judging Contest held last Saturday, May 15, was pronounced by everyone as the best that has ever been held in the history of the Ani- mal Husbandry Department. A larg- er part of this success is attributed to the Saddle and Sirloin Club under whose auspices the contest was held. In addition to keeping up an inter- est in animal husbandry in the School of Agriculture, this club has set itself to the task of producing livestock judging teams for the fu- ture that will duplicate the victories of the Champion teams of 1913 and 1919. A study of Saturday’s con- test will convince anyone that the members of this club have already made great strides toward the at- tainment of their ambition. A great deal of credit is also due to the Freshmen for the exceptional- ly fine spirit that was shown by them throughout the contest. Every man fought like his very life depended upon the results of this day’s work. The work of the five judges was highly satisfactory to all and their efficient work contributed, in no small degree, to the ease with which the contest was run off. Ten classes of livestock were judged by the students. These were made up of two classes each in horses, beef cattle, dairy cattle, hogs and sheep. The contestants were re- quired to give oral reasons on five of these classes. The forenoon was given to judging the livestock and the afternoon was devoted to the giving of reasons. By 3:30 p. m. the contest was over and by 4:30 p. m. the results had been determined. This is the quickest time one of these contests has even been run off. After supper the entire student body assembled in the Airdome and the results of the contest were an- nounced. The six high men in the contest were as follows A. C. Mog- ford with a score of 668 points out of a possible 7560; G. F. Schmidt 633 points; H. B. Boyle, 628 points; T. H. Downs 621 points; L. R. Kennedy 605 points and J. P. Miller, 601 points. These men were called to the platform to be presented with medals by Dean E. J. Kyle. It was at this: point that the only hitch ia the day’s proceedings occurred. In presenting the medals Dean Kyle had the very embarrassing experience of having the medals all given out be- fore he reached the last man. He was sure that he had not given two medals to any one man. He then searched all of his pockets trying to resurrect the missing medal but to no avail. In the meantime, the audience began to “appreciate the humor of the situation, as is general- { {Continued on Page 4) | THIS HAS BEEN A GREAT YEAR FOR THE COLLEGE President Bizzell Addresses the Stu- dent Body in Guion Hall Sun- day Morning. Dear Lord! We hope that every student assembled here can return to his home and say: “I have fought a good fight. I have finished my course. I have kept the faith.” —President Bizzell. In accordance with his custom of reserving the first Sunday morning religious service hour of the school year to speak to the students of their future work, and the same hour on the last Sunday of the year for the purpose of religiously giving them some impression that he has gained during the College year President Bizzell talked Sunday morning in Guion Hall. He based his statements on two passages. One of these he took from the Bible (II Timothy 4:7) fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith’ and the other he took from Newton 3 “The Quest of Dwight Hillis’ book, Happiness” which reads to the ef- fect that, what ‘makes a man happy A 5 or unhappy is a sense of success or ==] have .*"; failure in the important events of life.
