Further more, in so far as the contest is con cerned, these men are your enemies. One never has a chance to speak a word to his team mate. This stock judging contest is truly an instance of every fellow for himself and the devil take the hind most. Every man must keep in mind everything the coach has told him in the past, he hasn’t a team mate beside him to help him over the rough places. There isn’t much about a judging contest that is of interest to a looker on. There is no playing to the grand stand, there is no encouragement to come from the side line. Prof. Stan- gel made the remark that through the entire contest not one single time could he catch the eye of a member of the Texas team. Evidently the team realized the true situation, that the coach had done all he could and now it was up to them. Twelve classes of livestock consti tuted the placing in the contest and this was completed by noon. All the contestants were given lunch in the dining room of the Stock Yard Inn. Appetites were not in evidence at this meal. After luncheon the contestants were assembled in a large hall and the judges began immediately to take reasons. Then began the real tug of war. By the middle of the afternoon everyone began to feel the effects of the excessive strain. From then on it was an endurance contest. Men who had shown up strong in the beginning now began to weaken. Others who had not been so strong continued to hold up to the end. It is in the giving of reasons that a team has its real opportunity of im pressing its personality upon the judges. It was remarked more than Proposition. I favor the ratifica tion of the League and Treaty with out amendments or reservations. Proposition 2. I am opposed to the League and the Treaty in any form. Proposition 3. I am in favor of the ratification of the Treaty and the League but only with the specific reservations as voted by the majority of the Senate. Proposition 4. I favor and com promise on the reservations which will make possible immediate rati fication of the Treaty and the League. The committe will forward de tailed suggestions as to how the vote should be carried on. It is urged that between now and January 13, the utmost discussion of the situa tion should be stimulated in your in stitution if possible. Public debate and mass meetings of the students and faculty at which the different points of view will be presented should be held. The undersigned undergraduate committee has sub mitted the exact form of ballot to U:e WE WISH TO THANK YOU ONE AND ALL FOR THE PATRONAGE EXTENDED TO US DURING THE YEAR THAT IS NOW ABOUT TO CLOSE, AND WANT TO ASSURE YOU THAT SAME HAS BEEN APPRECIATED.

The college knows that both the team and Prof. Stangel come in for their share of the honors and there are certainly enough honors in such a victory for both. This makes the second time this college has won the bronze bull trophy. The rule is when it is won three times by the same institution it becomes the permanent property of that institution. No other institu tion has succeeded in winning the trophy more than once. The Junior class is already getting ready to make the bull permanent property of this institution. As “Alkali” Reed the man that comes from a family of stock judges expressed it the night when Prof. Stangel had brought the results to the team, “By gads, fellers, we’ve got two knots tied in that bull's tail and next year we’ve got to tie the third one.” We believe the Juniors are the ones to tie the “third one” and thus keep the bull in our own corral. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ .t. t - | THE CAMPUS CLUB More than fifteen hundred stu dents are registered at A. and M. Fourteen hundred and fifty of these are going home. About two score are from such distances that this pleasure is prohibited them.
