of the Aggie-Rice tilt. The following
week the team will journey to Aus
tin for the Conference meet. Rice
is reported to have a veteran team
back and is at present favored to
win the title, but upsets are quite
possible. Saturday afternoon while
the Ponies were dubbing the Owls,
the Rice Harriers were beating the
S. M. U. Cross Country runners by
the small margin of one point, beat
ing them 28 to 27. Brunson, veteran
track star of the Institute ran the
3.7 mile course in 19:56. The Aggies
have a complete new team and are
not expected to repeat as the Cham
pions this year but all of the first
eight are finishing in a bunch and
that is what it takes to win a pen
nant, providing of course they finish
somewhere near the front. Captain
Avila and Killian failed to return
this year and Coach Anderson is
going to find it hard to replace these
two stellar men.
It must be remembered that the
team is working against heavy odds
and all encouragement will be for
the cause.

team but showed much better form
during the past week. Probably the
most interesting game of the week
was that between Coach Lockett’s
men and Troop D. The Casuals are
going to make a strong bid for
League honors.
Don’t forget that Speedball starts
on the Twenty-ninth and that is a
game we can all play since it is a
combination of the best parts of bas
ketball, football, and soccer. It should
be the most popular of our Intra
mural sports. Company A won the
championship in this sport last year
and have lost only four men from
their championship combination. They
report that they are out for the
medals again this year so we can
look forward to some keen compe
tition.
To you students who are begin
ning your college work—let your col
lege life be well-rounded. Plan for
participation in every phase of col
lege life.”
By that I do not mean for you
to be a “jack-of-all-trades”—not at
all! There is a difference between a
so-called “Jack-of-all-trades” and a
student who is keenly alive to his
opportunities and takes them eager-
ly.
If your body is strong enough,
try intercollegiate athletics and if
not take up intramural athletics to
make it stronger. Join a debating
or literary society to make you a
more forceful speaker and polished
conversationalist. If newspaper work
appeals to you apply for a place on
one of the college publications and
learn more about it. Do not be de
terred in anything on account of
lack of previous knowledge—remem
ber that college is the place where
you learn and a confession of ig
norance is a significant mark of the
successful college student.
Then don’t forget to keep your
self up to par socially. Strive to be
come acquainted with a new person
each day and you will gain tremen
dously. Make contacts that will im
prove your manners and sharpen
your wits.
Above all don’t scoff at the things
of the spirit. Cultivate those asso
ciations that will make the spirit
grow and don’t think it beneath your
dignity to be sentimental, if senti
mentality is in order.
When you simmer this hodge podge
of random suggestions down to a
well ordered plan you will find that
provision is made for development
of every phase of your life, be it
mental, physical, social, or spiritual
—and the development or neglect of
these phases will make or unmake
any person and therefore is worthy
of attention from all college stu
dents.—The Houstonian.

COME ON, OLD
“ARMY”
Just cause the “Gentlemen”
and the “Horned Frogs” run
us “in” is no sign we are go
ing to stay “put” for thirty
years—
NO SIR—cause we got to
be up and going and get those
“Raysor-Backs,” “Ponies” and
“Steers” back in the pen be
fore it’s too late.
But say “Army” let’s do it
right—when the days work is
over you will want to step
out “Right” and a pair of
Florsheim’s oxfords with a new
Learbury suit and Schloss top
coat with one of the new fall
Dobbs hats will “put” things
over Brown—Come in and look
’em over and lay yours aside.
