NEW MEXICO A. & M. CREATES
SENSATION BY CO-ED
FOOTBALL GAME
New Mexico A. & M. created quite
a sensation in athletic circles when
two of the Sororities of that school
played a post-season football game
on Dec. 3. These two Sororities had
come through the season undefeated
and it was necessary to play off the
tie. The Kheth Samekhs won the
game from the Sigma Deltas by the
very narrow margin of 7-0. This is
the first real co-ed game that has
been played in the West and deserves
mention because it was a contest
filled with the spirit of earnest fight
interspersed with showings of real
field ability and generalship.

The A. and M. Poultry Farm has
just purchased a White Leghorn
cockerel, valued at $250, which is one
of the best bred-for-egg-production
cockerels of his breed to be obtained
in the United States. This cockrel has
been mated to the twelve best hens on
the college farms, which have records
of 240 to 290 eggs for their first year.
The pullets from the mating will be
carefully trap-nested in the hope of
getting some high record hens.

Dear Sirs:
I am a prodigal son.
I began pipe-smoking with Edge-
worth. But after a while I began to
wander, trying other tobaccos, experi
menting to see if there were any better
tobacco for the pipe.
I have tried most of the best known
brands and a number of the more ob
scure, both imported and domestic,
but they didn’t suit.
So now I have returned—I am using
Edgeworth again, satisfied that no
better tobacco is made.
“And the prodigal son partook of
the fatted calf”; I bought a new pipe
when I returned to Edgeworth.
With many thanks for my cool, mel
low, sweet smokes, I am,
Very truly yours,
“H. D.”
