1911 FOOTBALL SCHEDULE ARRANGED. Moran Will Have Fourteen Veterans Back for 1911. We will start the football season ef 1911-12 with the brightest prospects ever. There will be back on the team fourteen players who made their col lege letter the past season. Coach Moran has every reason to believe that his team next fall will be a win ner. Daniel C. Imboden, T2, is manager of the team. He has already ar ranged a very heavy schedule and we will go up against some of the strongest in the South. As far as known the schedule is: October 6—Southwestern Univer sity at College Station. October 13—Austin . College at Col lege Station. JOKES. (Here’s some more on Capt. Kidd.) J. W.

November 4—Texas Christian Uni versity at College Station. November 13—University of Texas at Houston. November 30—Baylor University at College Station. There will be a big game with some school between the time of the game with the University of Texas and that with Baylor, but the school has not been announced. Moran’s success as a fotoball coach at the college is phenomenal. When he arrived at the college two years ago he found practically no team at all, but lots of material. He began work developing players and such men as Hohn, Barnes, Cretcher, Mc Dowell, Ward, Altgelt, Beasley, Bate man, Whyte, Lambert, Grissom and Bell are fair examples of what he has produced. The following veteran players will be on hand at Seabrook next fall when Moran calls his men for early practice: Hohn, captain and tackle; Barnes, tackle; Cretcher, guard; Lambert, guard; Schaedel, guard; McDowell, center; Altgelt, end; Gris som, halfback; Whyte, fullback; Bateman,, halfback; lect under the skin. Reporter for Juinor Bat—Dr. Fran cis, what do you intend doing next summer? Dr. Francis—Well, well, well! That’s an odd question to put to a man. If I knew what I were going to do this afternoon I would be doing well. Captain Ray (at company inspec tion)—What is that part of your gun? Fish (ambitious for corporalship)— 1 That, sir, is the er—er safety valve. Dr. Marstellar—Mr. Fuchs, what strength of iodide of mercury would make a good application for a blister to a horse’s leg? Mr. Fuchs—Five per cent strength. Dr. Marstellar—Mr. Fuchs, that wouldn’t blister the skin on my chin. Mr. Fuchs—Yes, but it would blister a horse’s leg. Prof. Williams—Mr. Routh, what is the botanical name for cotton?

The Junior Battalion staff takes pleasure in presenting the president of the class of 1912. We have every reason to feel proud of him, for on all occasions Harris Underwood has worked unceasingly and has spared no pains in behalf of the Junior Class. T. P. Junkin, president of the Dan iel Baker College at Brownwood, who was a member of the faculty of the college as associate professor of math ematics, was a visitor to the campus Saturday. Since he has become presi dent of the Presbyterian school at Brownwood the attendance has in creased and the prospects for the in stitution are better than ever before. 1 I Magazines Post cards Cold Drinks AT SMITH-CAVITT DRUG CO.
