Well the Frogs have come and
gone so guess we wont have to worry
over them any more until the first of
March. They had a mighty good
team and if they can down S. M. U.
and Baylor we’ll appreciate it.

Texas put a rumor the other day
that their track team, to-wit: Sapp,
Reese, Jackson and Gilstrap, did not
register for the new term and that
this would materially weaken their
chances at the championship. Next
day we notice that Messrs. Sapp and
Reese had returned but so far there
is no word of the other prodigals. Of
course we sympathize with them, oh I
yes of course we do, but at the same
time it’s a shame that Thames and
Youngblood didn’t get dissatisfied
too.

Texas has a new basketball find in
this boy Nation that they are using
at forward. He practically won the
first Southwestern game for them and
ought to get better as the season
grows older.

Had a great laugh on the south
paw sport writer, Keith. He’s my
basketball expert, he rooms with Sid
Stout, and I got him to write up T.
C. U. In his comparison he forgot
all about Cantelmi, the star of the
series. He said he knew that there
was someone he had forgotten but
he couldn’t remember who it was.
Oh, these southpaws.

Strange to say this Contelmi isn’t
always the wonderful forward that
he appeared in the first game. He’s
one of these in and outers and he
happened to be right that night. Tay
lor is the forward that beat Rice and
! is considered the better of the two
men.

This Big George is sure enough big
and ugly but he was also a power on
both defense and offense. Now we
know how those teams felt when they
playd against Tiny Keen last year, j

Baylor is the next on the list and
gang they have a powerful team.
Captain Fullingim is no slouch and
Country Williamson, Bennie Strick
land, Warren Woodson, Chamberless,
Jones and the rest of that overgrown
bunch will make up into a powerful .
basketball quint. Bridges won many !
championships before he came to
Baylor and for the last three years
he has done fairly well with a one-
man team. This year he has the ma
terial so look out!

From Baylor the boys go to S. M.
U. and even though the Methodists
were beaten by Oklahoma A. and M.
they have a wonderful team. They
had about eight lettermen to start
the season with and that ought to
just about cinch anybody’s champion
ship.
THIRD BATTALION WHIPS
THE AIR SERVICE
With an overpowering passing and
swweping end-run attack, the Third
Battalion defeated the Air Service by
three touchdowns, the final score be
ing 18 to 0. Berry of the Third bore
brunt of the backfield work for that
organization, handling all their pass-

ing and most of their runing. Lackey
and Price showed well in the line.
Dyer was the next best man in the
backfield.
Grissom and Storie looked very well
for the Flyers.

’Twas Said:
A coal ■ saving hotel man who
had been frequently called down
for cold rooms, was called up
at 2 a. m. by one of his guests
as follows:
Guest—“Hello! HELLO! I want
another room.”
Proprietor—“Aw, go to bed.
You’ll be all right in the
morning.”
Guest—“HELLO! H-E-L-L-O!!
You gotta change my room
now.”
Proprietor—“Aw, your room’s
all right. What’s the matter
with it?”
Guest—“For one thing—it’s on
FIRE!”
Well, that’s that, and shows it’s
hard to satisfy every one. And
yet that is just what we are
here for—to give the greatest
amount of satisfaction in ser
vice as well as in the particular
article you buy. It keeps us
constantly busy, but we can as
sure you that your satisfaction
is what we assure by having
only what we know to be worth
while, and to give in service
more than you pay for it.
