The Arkansas Razorback football
stock dropped the past week when
“Tiny” Gardener, 265 pound tackle,
announced that he was quitting
school. It’s a good thing for the Ag
gie Fish that he quit, for it would
probabjy have taken all the Fish
class to carry him off the field.

Coach Ray Morrison has inaugur
ated a new plan at S. M. U. Last,
week he sent several of his football
players all over the state to scout
rival conference elevens in action.
Wonder what the boys gleaned from
our little walkaway over the Kan
sas Ags. ?
Sounds funny, but the motto at S.
M. U. this year is “beat the Texas
Aggies on Kyle Field, as bad as
they beat us in 1927.” They had
better alter it a little and make it
read “try and score a touchdown on
Kyle Field.” This humble scribe
would like to wager the Main build
ing that they couldn’t score 39
points in ten football games on Kyle
Field.

Watch out for Francis Schmidt
and the T. C. U. Horned Frogs next
season. Preparations for a great year
in 1930 are already being made, for
fifteen former high school grid cap
tains have enrolled as freshmen in
Frogland. Besides these, there are
numerous other stars from high
schools all over the state.
Two clever ends who won all-
state berths in 1928 are included in
the flock of stars. Dan Salkeld,
former Abilene wingman and a scin
tillating performer, is perhaps the
outstanding gridder out for the team.
He is closely followed by Madison
Pruitt, who captained the W'aco
Tigers from an end post last year.
There are four former high school
grid leaders out for the pivot po
sition, coming from Ranger, Lufkin,
Fort Worth and Onley. Five captains
are battling for guard and tackle po
sitions. 3 are from Ft. Worth, one
from Commerce and the other hails
from Weatherford.
Only -two of the galaxy of stars
are backfield men, one being from
Sunset high in Dallas and the other
from Diamond Hill in Fort Worth.
The Aggies are not blessed with such
a wealth of high school stars, and
never were, but football players are
made here. For instance, Joel Hunt
wasn’t good enough to make the
Waco High team at one time, you
know, and he turned out to be a fair
football player.
PROPOSED ENGINEERING DAY.
Some rather protracted discuss
ions have been held lately between
the heads of the engineering de
partments and among the members
of the various engineering societies
i-egarding the initiation of an A.
and M. Engineering Day, a day to
be set aside for technical demon
strations in which each engineering
department will participate. Most of
the large colleges throughout the
country have such days, and several
of the largest schools devote an en
tire week to their engineering dis
plays. A. and M. is certainly capa
ble of succeeding in such an endea
vor, and with the cooperation of the
students and the interest the in
structors are showing this aspira
tion may soon become a reality.
The engineering societies and the in
dividual students are urged to dis
cuss the furthering of this plan with
their instructors.
