top. If the person who got the long
lost pennant will kindly return it to
the athletic office, “no questions ask
ed,” it will be deeply appreciated by
Mr. Sully.
Well, they finally did it—the Owls
certainly did upset all dope buckets
when they trimmed the Longhorns for
their first conference victory since
1927. As a result—the Owls enjoyed
a holiday Monday—not such a bad
idea at that.
It was just another case of a de
termined team fighting a team that
had their minds upon another game—
namely,. the S M U game—whom
they haven’t beaten since 1920.
Friday will bring a clash between
the freshmen and Allen Academy on
Kyle Field at 3:30. The freshmen have
a strong team this year and the game
will be well worth seeing.
George Lord, product of San An
tonio high schools, continued his bril
liant work at guard Saturday, there
by placing his name n line for an
all conference berth at that position.
Lord was down the field on virtually
every punt—slashing, driving, and
most of the time tackling the receiv
ers the instant they caught the ball.
McFadden upheld his reputation as
one of the South’s outstanding kick
ers Saturday. His average for ten
kicks was better than 45 yards. He
also turned in a nice game at end.
This little Bernard Uptmoor of Ar
kansas is not soon to be forgotten
after the game he turned, in last
Saturday. He ran, passed, and kicked
the ball, and may it be said that his
kicks were averaging right up with
our own Mac’s.
The coming clash with the Gents
will be a heated battle. Last week, the
Gents used “Baylor shall not pass,”
as a slogan—and sure enough—they
didn’t. This week—their slogan is
“Show us that Aggie goal line.” Fel
lows, it’s up to you!
It is easy riding when all is well—
but the real test comes when all looks
blackest. Now is the time to show
that real Aggie spirit. The team needs
it—and you need it. A team is helped
a lot by individual contact—when you
see a player—slap him on the back
and say you’re with him.
University of Kansas, bad boy of
the Big Six, has been ousted from the
conference because one, Jim Bausch,
star halfback and candidate for all-
American honors, receives $75 a
month from an insurance company as
advance commissions on premiums he
will sell later. Well, $75 is pretty
small for any one as good as that.
The Gents are coming down here
with the intentions of continuing their
undefeated season over conference
teams—get that determination way
down deep—and we will celebrate a
victory Saturday night.
Centenary Gents—

indicate that a special train bearing
between six and seven hundred Cen
tenary students and Shreveport fans
will make the trip here with the
Gents, and one of the largest crowds
of the year is expected to witness
the game.
As has happened in nearly all of
this season’s games, the A & M team
will enter the field the underdogs,
fighting on Kyle Field for the honor
of Aggieland, and fighting to break
into the win column.
The Aggie starting lineup has
hot been announced as yet, but the
probably lineup for the Centenary
team is Patter, left end; Crowley,
left tackle; Johnson, left guard;
Younger, center; Beidenharn, right
guard; Hilton, right tackle; Lee, right
end; Cameron and Nolan, halfbacks;
Brown, quarter; and Welsh, full.

45-yard run by Holmes had placed
the ball on the Aggie 10-yard line.
Holmes and Ledbetter executed a ser
ies of line plunges to carry the ball
across.
The Aggies best opportunity to
score came in the third after McFad
den had punted to Arkansas’ 12 yard
line where they fumbled and A & M
recovered. Two passes received by
McFadden placed the ball on the five
yard line. Dansby then passed over
the goal line, Arkansas getting the
ball. Again in the last quarter a
chance to score was broken up when
Dale intercepted an Aggie pass after
the ball had been advanced to the
Hog’s 30 yard line by a series of
passes,
George Lord, guard, was easily the
outstanding Aggie player, turning in
his best game of the season with his
sensational offensive and defensive,
usual hard playing.

Aggie tackle; and Harry Stiteler,
track man from Smithville. All these
football members of Coach Bell’s grid
team will not be able to join the cage
candidates until after the close of
the football season Thanksgiving.
Coach John Reid is beginning his
second season at A & M, after com
ing here from the North Texas State
Teachers College at Denton. In his
four years there, his teams were
among the strongest in the T I A A
League, including a conference cham
pionship in 1925-26. In his first year
at A & M, Coach Reid turned out a
team that did very well in the con
ference, and was a credit to his first
year with the Aggies.
Coach Reid wishes to announce that
if there are any boys in school who
is the time to do so. There is open
competition for places on the squad,
and there is room for several more
members on the squad.
Provisions for the founding of a
college were left in a will of the late
Mayor Anthony M. Ruffu jr., of At

bile accident. The mayor had hoped to
establish the college in his life time.
