Texas University had but little difficulty in copping the tennis crown, the only surprise of the whole affair coming when Barnes, Texas, defeated Bell, al- son Texas in the finals of the singles tournament. Rice Institute easily won the golf title by using but 327 strokes while the S. M. U. Scotch enthusiasts, who were second in the running, used 338. Bridewell, a Razor Back product, won individual honors, besting Holmes of Southern Methodist six and five. LARGE SWIMMING POOL (Continued from Page 1) ments of the college have offered their assistance and services. In view of these facts it seems that we will have no trouble in complet ing the enterprise, once we are able to commence operations. The probable location will be just in rear of the steel football bleach ers. Dr. Walton has agreed to park off the territory surrounding the pool, covering it with flower beds, trees and other beautifying devices. Since we have the enlisted efforts of ex-students, Mothers Clubs, the authorities and departments of the 1 & • o oio h rsm j Delicious and Refreshing 8 fVI s L3-SON X DAV J Pa\we Am m-TREsm ACdJlTKSlE ILF THE FELLOW THAT SHOUTS, "KILL THE UMPIRE’,’LOUDEST, USUALLY WOULDN'T HURT A FLEA.

WOMEN ARN’T GLAMOROUS ENOUGH James Aswell, a young newspaper man, thinkes Every Life Needs Glamour, and makes the following plea in the May College Humor: “I know now that this dumb eager ness blows through most of us. And I know what it is for. It is for color, brightness, glitter; for the glory of the world. A dream in the hand is worth two during sleep. The trouble is that so few people are willing to recognize openly that glamour iis their goal, and seek it out highheart- edly. No. That would be too-—well, ‘mushy.’ But the search for glamour is in fact never maudlin—Glamour makes one proud. “How little women seem to know about this thing, though I think they want it badly too. Some of them know the magic of pearly limbs, of shining gowns, of husky voices in the moonlight. But that is elemental stuff. Intuition. What is necessary is a comprehension of the whole scene. The high mysterious darkness, the shimmer of light across the wa ter like stacks of precarious platinum plates; the knowledge that they and the fact of their sex t- t re but a single instrument, to be played, oh, so care fully in a momentary rhapsody. “If the people would only be can did about this; would only cooperate with each other, walk openly toward the grail. And yet, about that I have grave misgivings. Never have I brought down one of my moments when I went intently and consciously after it. That people don’t know that what they are panting for is a gleam, a sparkle, may be the reason that they get their desire even at long intervals. Perhaps if they sought it with intention avowed, as a Rotarian seeks Service, the whole business would become as premeditated and unromantic as a honeymoon.” Paul Whiten-iati Every Tuesday over Columbia network. . .8:00 to 9:00 P.
