THE BATTALION
S ; TSii
FARMERS DEFEAT RICE 13 TO 6
(Continued From Page 10)
ever, that the offensive they opened
up began to have its effect; on the
first play after that period began,
Dansby shot a pass to Red Wilson
who only had to step across the goal
line for the touchdown. Dansby
kicked the goal that put the Farmers
in the lead. Beginning at this time,
the Aggies began to display the fight
that made possible the glorious vic
tory they finally won. Before the
final whistle had blown, another 0
points had been added to the total
after Berry had circled around the
end that Allison had cleared for him,
for ten yards and the touchdown.
Dansby’s attempt at goal was block
ed.
The individual stars of the Aggie
team numbered the brilliant Waugh,
Afiison, Fay Wilson, Mitt Dansby,
a^d Hardman. The giant tackle,
Waugh, covered himself in a blaze of
glory; a fitting climax to his career
on Kyle Field. This game was the
best he has turned in during his brill
iant career at Aggieland. Allison’s
v/ork was one of the feautres ot the
game and Hardman, the other line
man who distinguished himself, play
ed a game that was beyond reproach.
Mitt Dansby was the backfield man
on the maroon eleven to which much
of the credit for the victory must be
given. His passing made possible
the first touchdown, his goal the win
ning point,—breaking the tie; and h;s
line plunging, the second touchdown.
For just before Berry made his run
for the counter, the Aggie half had
just made 10 yards over the much
touted Underwood, the Owl pivot
man, placing the ball on Rice’s 10
yard line.
To Mule Wilson goes the honor of
keeping the ball out of the Aggie ter
ritory with his consistant punting.
Although suffering terribly from an
injured shoulder, he carried the ball
for substantial gains and sent the
ball sailing far thru the air on his
punts. His presence in the machine,
after his entry in the second quarter,
seemed to act as an incentive to his
teammates, for those Aggies fought
in the second half.
The powerful Heisman aggrega
tion furnished several stars in the
game. Among those were: “Grand
pa” Wood the versatile half and pass
er; Hale, the elusive end, who is very
adept at grabbing passes; and Wil-
ford, the other Rice half who handled
the punting assignment very wel 1 .
The Rice line presented the most
powerful opposition the Aggies have
faced this season. Truly, this game
was a battle between the two best
lines in the conference, with the Ag
gies handicapped with the absence of
several of its regulars who saw ser
vice in only part of the game because
of injuries and the work of Norman
Dansby who has been out of the last
two games with an injury.

EXPERIMENT STATION
GIVES ASSISTANCE TO
AGRICULTURAL JOURNALISTS
It has been the aim of the Exten
sion Service for several years to help
create a Chair of Journalism at A.
and M., so that the relation or ag
riculture to journalism may be studied
and propery established. As a means
to this end, the Extension Service has
invited a number of newspapers
throughout the State to send copies
of their papers here, where they may
be kept and filed. The purpose of
this is twofold. In the first place,
these papers offer to those students
who are taking what may be termed a
course in journalism a unique oppor
tunity to study journalism. Then, in
the second place, the papers are pre
served by binding them in book form,
thus making the papers a permanent
record. If at any time, say after
a number of years, the condition of
crops in a certain locality is desired
to be known, it can be ascertained by
referring to the newspaper file.
Several students have enrolled in
the course, and their names with the
name of the newspaper they are
studying are as follows:
C. C. Wilson, “Troup Banner.”
W. M. Tompkins, “Weslako News.”
M. E. Dealy, “Cameron Enter
prise.”
R. L. Lenschner, “San Saba Star.”
It was pointed out that there is a
wide field in journalism open to en
ergetic and vigorous men. It was
also stated that the relation of journ
alism to agriculture was of utmost
importance in this State. From this
t is easy enough to see why it would
be logical to establish a Chair of
Journalism at this institution. Texas,
being one of the richest agricultural
states in the Union, needs the adver
tisement that the circulation of news
papers can bring. A reference was
made to the fact that as soon as the
rvitntion was extended to the various
newspapers to send copies here that
they immediately began mentioning
the agricultural standing and produc
tion of the localities which the various
newspapers represented.

Stude: “Adam.”
Prof: “How’s that?”
Stude: “They took his rib and
made a loud speaker out of it.”

you are always at the bottom of the

Johnny: “It doesn’t make any dif

Mother: “Lulu, you stood out on
the porch quite a while last n ite.”
Lulu: “‘Why mother, I only stood
there for a second.”
Mother: “But I’m sure I heard a

Fish—Still a mystery, sir.
