Only singles will be played for some
time and record will be kept of each

than by elimination.
The Executive Committee has de
cided that only paid up members of
the Tennis Association will have the
privilege of playing on the courts
now under the management of and
being maintained by the Association.
The Association has secured com
plete control of the courts behind the

ed efforts has been able to maintain
these courts in good playing condi
tion.
Arrangements are being made for
a dual meet with Baylor University
and it is hoped that the Association
will be able to bring this school here
sometime in April.
C. E. SOCIETY GIVES SMOKER
A Good Time Was Had By All
On last Monday night the Civii
Engineering Society collected avail
able funds and gave a smoker in the
C. E. Building,
The menu consisted of Cleopa-
tras, Favorites, Australio Heimalias,
Canyocs (Callege variety), and
Psendimonous Rodicicakii. From the
way the members partook of the
menu and from the general senti
ment expressed, it is established that
the affair was a success. Cleopatras
Favorites seemed to be a rather
strong species and sent some of our
members home groggy, but the ma
jority managed to hold their own
and the supply diminished very rap
idly.
The program consisted of several
talks led by Ike Ashburn.
The talks were of a varied nature
and gave promise of extreme in
terest when adjournment was finally
necessary.
Among the stars of the evening
A. B. Knickerbocker deserves espec
ial mention on his ability as an or
ator.
The C. E. Society has big plans
worked out for the future and in
tends to develop a strong organiza
tion.
The Department of Electrical En
gineering is contemplating or rather
planning to inaugurate an inter-col
legiate news service by radio. Fur
nished with the names of a good
many college publications, together
with the names and addresses of
editors, communication could be es
tablished and the latest up-to-the-
minute dope and news could be
handed out. We are thrilled with
the idea and hope to see it in opera
tion before very long. M. W. A.
Tolson is the instigator and firmly
believes that such a scheme could be
carried out to perfection. The Bat
is heartily in favor and only requests
to be first in line in the news re
ceived.
JUNIOR BANQUET HELD TUES
DAY WITHOUT MISHAP
(Continued from Page 1)
several entrances at once was exe
cuted with the result that under cov
er of darkness those in the rear were
successful—and here success was the
prime requisite because this fight de
cided the victor. None seem to
know just how it all came about, etc.,
but the fact remains that he was
rushed in—this distinguished person
age being Mr. Bill King of San An
tonio, Texas, and newspaper fame—
magazines included.
History of the case tells us he has
been a traveling man for the past
week but returned early Monday
morning in a car with wings—that’s
the way the Sophs tell it—because
of its ability to climb over a pile of
cross ties.
The Sophomore class is to be con
gratulated upon the splendid spirit
shown in time of defeat and also in
their movement of “airing ’em out”
which was as complete and thorough
as there other actions which have
characterized their campaign.
The program of the banquet in
cluded besides talks by members of
the class, a song by Miss Lovell and
music by Holick’s Novelty Orchestra.
Aubrey Legg gave a brief resume of
the actions or rather a history of the
Junior class; W. T. “Tanlac” Strange
orated on “Dealing in Futures”;S. C.
Evens briefly brought up the ques
tion of “Our Senior Year”, and “Red”
Thompson ran wild on “The Crime of
Labor”. The banquet was completed
by 10 o’clock —that is the Juniors
part of it. What happened after that
needs to be referred to a committee.
The Junior class with “Tanlac”
Strange as editor will publish an edi
tion of The Battalion week after next
or April 1st. This promises to be the
best ever as such a class should not
go unrecognized.
AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION
STUDENTS VISIT BRYAN
HIGH SCHOOL
In conjunction with the regular
class work of the methods of teach
ing class of the Agricultural Educa
tion Department, visits are being
made to the Bryan High School one
afternoon every other week for the
purpose of observing the different
means and methods utilized in the
instruction of High School pupils.
These classes are composed of men
who contemplate accepting positions
as teachers of vocational agriculture
under the Smith-Hughes Act through
out the State and Bryan is the only
practical place in which to do all of
this observation work. These classes
are under the direction of Mr. J.
Horace Kraft, associate professor of
the department, who has had much
expei'ience as a teacher and in exten
sion and demonstration work. The
superintendent and faculty of the
Bryan High School have shown these
classes every courtesy and the type
of work that is being done there
should serve as an incentive to those
who recognize good work.
Hartwell J. Kennard, 102 Milner,
wants to know who it was that com
pletely wrecked his bed last Tues
day night. His idea of wanting to
know is that it is his desire to thank
the “guilty one” for placing his suit
on the chair so neatly.
666 has proven it will cure Malaria,
Chills and Fever, Bilious Fever Colds
and LaGrippe. 20
