THE BATTALION 5 /^OLUMBUS made possible Bal- boa, and just so Bell has made possible the pathfinders in telephony who are now turning his vision into reality. They are pioneering at the drafting board, in the manufacturing depart ments, in the field and in the work which underlies all activity—manage ment. Jn executive and administrative control, in the supervisor’s opportunity to guide and inspire, there is no limit to the possibilities of the progressive idea. The questing spirit : nto new fields has achieved much, but the way re mains open for men of the coming generation to carry the telephone in dustry to still greater heights of service. | ALRIGHT | AGGIES! | BEAT S.M.U.

He said you could tell by the shape of her mouth Just who she’d love and how much. Tight drawn lips meant coldness, If teeth showed. . . warmth after awhile. Full lips meant always a necker Depending somewhat on her smile. If she grinned like a cat eating catnip, And a corner of her mouth drooped down, She was just the kind he wanted To have in a nice big town. But she wouldn’t do in the country. She’d be scared some one she knew Would spot’er and tell her mama And you know what these mamas do. I took John Sharp to Bryan And let him take his pick Of all the girls I’d ever met He found one pretty quick. I got him a date with the one he said Was the hottest in the place, Helped him dress for the occasion, Even massaged the poor fool’s face. He must have come from a warmer clyme And he’s gone to a hotter spot; For in spite of the fact that the boys out here Say the girls in town are hot, John’s date proceeded to kill him, And it wasn’t a lover’s tiff, For John, Lord rest and preserve him, Was frozen solid and stiff. 9TH ANNUAL RODEO (Continued from Page 1) that he has some sure “nuff,” high jumping, side stepping, and body twisting horses that will deal the riders misery from start to finish.
