capable of bearing this burden.

The first three games of the season
have been comparatively easy, and the
team has improved wonderfully since
the first game. Saturday, we play the
first big game of the year, and it will
be the first real test of the fighting
power of the Aggies. MEN, WE
MUST WIN THAT GAME. “You,
can help do it by putting all the spirit
and fight that you have oehind that
team—and they WILL win.

The following is a letter that ap
peared in an editorial in the “SE-
WANEE PURPLE,” the weekly pub
lication of the University of The
South, better known as Sewanee:
SEWANEE PURPLE,
Sewanee, Tenn.
Dear Purple and Folks:
This must be a Sewanee Year. It
has been ten years since we beat Van-
dy. It must be done this year.
All the alumni in Texas will be at
Dallas to see the Tigers beat the
Aggies.
Best regards,
, ’14.
That is the way they feel about it,
and they are going to exert every ef
fort to beat us. They have one of
the best teams they have ever pro
duced at that institution, and so have
we.

When the Aggies take the field on
Saturday afternoon, they will present
a line that will rival the famous line
of 1921, averaging a little better than
185 pounds form one end to the other.
The backfield, although not a heavy
one, is made up of men that have
proven by their performances in the
early games, that they are fast, excel
lent broken field runners, and possess
the drive necessary to gain yardage.
And to top it off, we have two capable
field generals that know how to direct
the combination and to the best ad
vantage, besides being briliant per
formers themselves.
In the line there are such men as:
Allison, Waugh, Forgason, Irvin,
Dansby, Hardman—all of them letter
men. Besides these are Brazelton,
Dieterich, Beutel, Red Wilson, Meit-
zen, Ochterbeck, Price, Rideout, Ben
nett, Watts, and Townsend. For the
Quarterback position, there is Berry
and Dansby. To fill up the rest of the
backfield, Fay Wilson, Woodman, Mc
Guire, Kishi, Pinson, Pistole, and Ar
nold. There are listed twenty-six
men, and from them two teams can be
picked—one as strong as the ether,
other.
The Aggie Offensive shows: Aggies
127; Opponents 0. Let’s keep that
slate clean.

When the varsity squad reported
for practice Monday, there was a new
comer among them—no, not a new
comer in the sense of the word, but a
new wearer of a maroon jersey. This
man has stood the knocks and jolts
dealt out daily by the squad and has
assisted in the molding of two Aggie
teams—in a black jersey, a member
of the reserves.
For three years Tubby Curry has
played football, but always on the
Reserve or Battalion team; playing
against odds—not a flashy or erratic
game, but always steady and consist
ent; fighting for the realization of his
dream—to be a part of the team that
represents old Aggieland on the grid
iron. This year, he again was a mem
ber of the reserves. The day before
the Southwestern game, he was in
structed to exchange his black sweat
er for a maroon one, and with it came
the realization of his dreams.
This is an example of the rewards
of perseverance and hard work. It is
also typical of that true, never-say-
die, Aggie spirit.

Mr. H. H. House, head of the De
partment of Physical Education, has
expressed a desire for all the battal
ion commanders to hold an election as
soon as possible for the purpose of
selecting a manager of inter-battal
ion athletics. This must be done im
mediately as the Department wants to
arrange the schedule of the Intramu
ral basketball league within the next
few days.
RESERVES WIN OVER FISH

reason to claim a moral victory.
Coach Anderson’s young hopefuls
were not the easy victims that the
veteran reserves had expected.
Every man of both teams was given
an opportunity to show his stuff.
Among the Fish, Hunt, a halfback;
Utay, at full; Maufrais, playing
guard; and Burney at end, were the
outsanding individuals. This week
end, the Freshmen formally open their
season against the strong Burleson
College eleven on Kyle Field.
He—Elman is quite a musician, isn’t
he?
She—Oh, yes. Even when he was
two years old he used to play on the
'linoleum. —Jack o’Lantern.

ment are they having in the Cavalry
this year?”
2nd Fish: “Stable government, as
usual.”
