need this game with S. M. U. and you
are not taking this yell practice ser
ious enough. That’s right, not ser
ious enough. The fellows that stand
well up among the crowd give all
they have got at yell practice and
that’s all we can ask of them but the
men that are back in the crowd, es
pecially around the edges of the
throng, haven’t got the old spirit.
There are a bunch of empty heads
out there that seem to think that yell
practice is a place for them to scuffle
and fight and they make so much
noise that Monty can’t be heard back
there. That isn’t the right spirit and
the fellows that are doing it don’t
think. Won’t you help me get them
on the line? When they start their
little show just knock sparks from
one of them, won’t you? That’s the
stuff, I knew you would.

Get the Mustangs next Friday.
Get mean, gang, get mean! Show
them we are sportsman and see if
you can’t arouse a little envy in their
breasts.

ping. Neely and Fay Wilson were the
offensive stars of the game; Neely
tore the line to shreds on the off-
tackle plays and Fay bucked through
the center of the line for huge gains.
Gill came through and punted in a
manner that was a revelation, getting
off long high kicks that the ends
could cover without difficulty. His
passing was also parexcellence as
usual.
The first touchdown came soon
after the opening whistle. Neely and
Fay Wilson carried the ball within
scoring distance twice but both times
the Tigers tightened and the ball was
lost on downs. A poor punt gave the
Aggies another chance and “Knick”
sent the two running backs over a
weak guard for good gains. With the
ball on the 18-yard line Fay found a
hole and ran over for the first score.
Knick added the other point. In
the second quarter, Neely got loose
for three long gains and aided by
Gill and Wilson put the ball in scor
ing distance. Fay Wilson then suck
ed in their right end and ran the re
maining 8 yards for a touchdown.
With clock-like regularity Knick ad
ded that other point.
In the third quarter the Aggies
really broke loose. A poor kickoff of
15 yards gave them a start and Knick
unleashed a passing attack that was
invincible. Short passes carried the
ball down the field and then Gill shot
one to Puny for 35 yards and another
score. This time Jim Forgason kick
ed goal. The last nail was driven in
the Tiger’s coffin when Neely started
another march down the field by
tearing through tackle like a long-
delayed freight. After working it
down to the 8 yard mark, he carried
it over and Forgason made it a per
fect day for the goal kickers.
The Tiger’s showed they had the
old fight by coming back in the last
period and threatening by the aerial
route. Short passes of the Sewanee
type worked for small gains and ac
counted for nearly all of the 46
yards that the Tigers gained during
the game. The game ended with the
ball in the Aggies possession on the
L. S. U. 2 yard line.
