F. A.-Infantry Victorious In Intramural Fray Engineer-Cavalry Team Lose 13-0; F. A. Win By Penetration In two hard-fought contests, the Infantry and Artillery emerged victorious in the initial intramural football games. The Infantry de- feated the team composed of Engi- neers and Cavalrymen to the count of 13 to 0; the Artillery eked out over a composite team composed of Signal Corps, Chem Warfare, and Coast Artillery by a single pen- etration. Both games were well played affairs, and some finished gridiron performing was noted. Despite the fact that the games were played amid mud and mire, all of the teams uncorked a daz- zling, versatile type of play, which proved quite effective at times. On several occasions some beautiful broken field running was witness- ed; and coupled with an overhead attack, the spectators were ever on their toes. Contrary to previous announce- ments, intramural football will be run on an elimination basis, with only three games scheduled for the entire sport. This eliminates quite a few of the games, but will make the sport considerably more inter- esting due to the concentration of material. If the two games played this past week-end may be used as indicators, the sport has already enjoyed a successful year. In the Artillery-Composite Team game, it was a nip and tuck affair during the entire tenure of the melee. Both teams unleashed bril- liant running games, which did not seem to be hampered to any great extent by the very slow condition of the field. Much deception was noted in the attacks of both teams, but straight driving football ac- counted for the greater success of their drives. Joe J. Brown, ’12, for the past several years has been with the State Board of Vocational Educa- tion with headquarters at Austin: He is now director of the Rehabili- tation and Crippled Children Di- visions of this department and do- ing a well recognized and very fine piece of work.

THINGS I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO DO— To get into the chemistry lab. and mix all the chemicals—and then go to a lab. period and watch the pupils and the professors while they see all their experiments give the wrong results.
