FIVE MOST POPULAR SENIORS
ELECTED.
(Continued from Page 1)
Peoples, “Siki” Sikes, Lacy Bourland,
and “Bubba” Blount were the chosen
ones.
Joel Hunt is no doubt the best look
ing of the group and besides being
our captain and the best football play
er in the Southwest, he has been busy
the last few weeks getting his name
in print all over the country.
Allen Peoples is our yell-leader and
chief wise-cracker, and has put in a
very successful season at both jobs.
“Siki” is not only Joel’s roomate
but is our only three-letter man in
three sports and not long ago helped
show those nasty Eastern boys how
to play football.
Lacy Bourland is our cadet colonel
and has a drag with the commondant’s
daughter. (We’ve said too much al
ready—oh, yes, business manager of
the Bat, too.)
“Bubba” Blount is the Senior Class
president, and the head-man in the
first battalion of paddle-foots.

JUNIOR A. H. TEAM WORKING
FOR CONTEST
About fifteen juniors are working
hard in anticipation of the South
western Exposition and Fat Stock
Show in Fort Worth the second week
of March. This is an annual contest
and the juniors are working for places
on the team. Six men will be picked
to represent the college. The selec
tion will be made on the basis of their
records made in the next two months
at school. The Texas Aggies are out
this year to beat the Oklahoma Ag
gies who won last year. This contest
is a splendid means of giving the men
experience in judging in preparation
for the national and international con
tests next fall.
Gentlemen.... Officers by the skin
of our teeth and an act of the
Colonel’s, Gentlemen .... as Mark
Anthony said to Helen of Troy, lend
me your ears... I have that to say
tonight which will inevitably relieve
me of a great burden and can not but
make yourselves somewhat the wiser,
it is of the utmost importance to every
loyal member of this noble collection
of almost failures who choose to
designate themselves as the One
Buttoneers Club.
Our college career is slowly, oh
very slowly, drawing to a close, a
close I might say that is highly satis
factory to each and every one of us.
Why ? A perfectly natural question
in view of the fact that each of us
represents a pitcher that went to the
well and though not broken is still
empty. We represent a class of stu
dent which by passive resistance, ab
solutely refused to have any military
was the far nobler pursuit of know
ledge, polish and women, did I hear
an amen?
Then why should our college career
be regarded as a success ? Gentlemen
it should not only be regarded as a
success. . .it is an unqualified success.
We are one group here in this noble
institution that no one can truthfully
accuse of having curried favor. Has
not the Military department awarded
us the honor of wearing one button
in signal recognition of that very
fact ? Indeed they have.
And so gentlemen. . .It is my pleas
ure as I stand here tonight before you,
to request that we extend our hearti
est sentiments of appreciation to the
department that so honored us in the
form of a large bouquet of flowers. I
thank you.
“Empty vessels make the greatest
sound.” Maybe that is the reason
most of us are so noisy.
