The athletic field was very sloppy Saturday, owing to a hard rain in the morning. The two teams floundered around in the mud and water, Rugle being especially lucky in landing in the water. The game was full of humorous incidents. “Come in boys, the water’s fine,” and “First down, 5 next pool to go,” are some of the phrases used by the players and spectators. The T. C. U. boys are all gentle men, on and off the . field, and their clean game and lack of wrangling are a credit to the team, manager and coach. They-will al-wtiy? -btr given a hearty welcome at the A. and M. The spectators made few rude re marks at this game, and it is to be hoped that such remarks will soon be a thing of the past. We must con tinue to treat visiting teams in the same way we want our team treated when they are the visitors. This is true sportsmanship. T. C. U. kicked to A. and M. Rugle receiving the ball. A. and M. gained fifteen yards on quarter back kick and fifteen more on a forward pass. After about two minutes of play Leggett carried the ball over for the first touchdown. Kelley kicked goal. T. C. U. again kicked to A. and M., and Kelley made the second touchdown after about one and one- half minutes of play. Kelley failed to kick goal. T. C. U.' kicked to A. and M. Wadlington brought the ball back thirty yards by a good run behind fine interference. A. and M. penalized fifteen yards for failure to touch ball on forward pass. A. and M. punted and Hooker made one of the star plays of the game by capturing the ball on a fumble, and before he could bejgathered in he had the ball safely behindl the line, between the goal posts. No goal kicked. T. C. U. to A. and M. Rugle advanced the ball twenty yards. Har wood, T. C. U.’s swift full back, got a forward pass intended for Leggett and hied away for a touchdown, with “Choc” in hot persuit. On the kick out T. C. U. dropped the ball and lost their chance to kick goal. A. and M. kicked to T. C. U. but the latter lost the ball, and Allen went over for another touchdown, af ter a determined stand by T C. U. Kelley failed to kick goal. Allen re placed by Taylor. T. C.
