Two powerful characters in a great
romance aboard a train in the Orient.
COTTON—
(Continued from page 1)
value of cotton as a raw material
for manufacturing purposes.
Cotton Products
Included in the show will be sam
ples of the raw material; various
classes of seed, lint, and cotton
seed products; and many products
which are manufactured from cot
ton which includes pyralin, micar-
ta, bakelite, metallic compounds,
and numerous newly developed ma
terials which are becoming natio
nally recognized and used.
The night’s program will run in
to the early hours of morning,
when the gay visitors of the Ball
will celebrate the climaxing events
of the day; the crowning of His
Highness King Cotton, in a massive
pageant.
Cotton Gowns
Unusual in many ways, the lad
ies of the court will wear the most
expensive of cotton goods, made of
the latest and most select mater
ials. The gowns will be furnished
by the Textile Institute of New
York City.
The complete court comprising
members of the corps and their
ladies, has not been selected but
will be announced in a few days.
Large Ball
Closing the pageant, the Court
and His Majesty the King, will
proceed to the Cotton Ball where
they will make fun and enjoy the
glory of the day until a late hour.
Plans for the dance are to be an
nounced in a few days.
Leaders Optimistic
J. S. Mogford of the Agronomy
Department, and Tom Drew, pres
ident of the Agronomy Society
which is responsible for the pro
duction of the massive entertain
ment, are very optimistic concern
ing the day and feel that all visi
tors will enjoy themselves very
much.
At an interview regarding the
plans, Drew stated the following:
“I am not able to state at present
many details of the program which
are yet to be completed. But re
ports from the concerns working
with the society in staging the ex
hibition and pageant are very en
couraging. I feel sure that every
one attending the exhibit and the
night program will have a wonder
ful time.”

dents listed.
According to the listing of the
classes there were forty-seven
freshmen, thirty-four sophomores,
thirty-six juniors and sixty-seven
seniors.
This report compares favorably
with that of last year, proportion
ally, although there were more stu
dents eligible in ’29-’30; however,
consideration must be given to the
decrease in enrollment for this
year.
RIFLE TEAM—
(Continued from page 1)
and 384, respectively.
Team Improving
Records of firing completed to
date this season show a constant
improvement of every member of
the team, and having already sur
passed the form which carried them
to the pinnacle in the National In
tercollegiate matches for the past
two years, the team promises to set
a new high mark for collegiate
rifle teams.
‘The team record for the past
two seasons and to date this year
is far superior to that of any team
in the history of the matches. Since
the start of the 1931 season only
one contest has been dropped by
the regular ten man A and M team.
That loss was in the opening
week this year and was probably
due to nervousness on the part of
the team. Two five man affairs
were in favor of the opponents last
season, one with the West Point
Military Academy and the other in
the Hearst trophy competition, the
latter being won from A and M by
a scant three points.
NEW GRID—
(Continued from page 1)
the Registrar, the Fiscal depart
ment, and the Faculty Exchange
post office, as well as other execu
tive offices, will be situated a quar
ter of a mile east of the present
Academic building and will face
the new Houston-Dallas highway.
Thirty-five thousand dollars have
been appropriated for the planting
of trees and shrubs, sidewalks and
other landscape features and which
will be completed as the buildings
are put up. The many details re
garding the new buildings have
not been completed to date.
TWO MEN—
(Continued from page 1)
ed they make the required total of
fifty-four during both semesters.
G. W. Davis, senior, Troop A
Cavalry, and Fred Gremmol, soph
omore, Pettus, Texas, tied for hon
ors with forty-four points each. In
the junior class E. C. Buie, Grand
view, and S. E. Burton, Valentine,
made forty-two points each. High
est honor among the freshmen goes
to M. V. Stuteville of Cisco, with
a total of thirty-nine.
Considering the students on a
percentage basis, fifty-three per
cent of the one hundred and eighty-
four made twenty-five to twenty-
nine points inclusive, forty-three
per cent made thrity to thirty-nine
points inclusive, and three per cent
made forty to forty-four points.
According to the different
schools there were approximately
sixty Agricultural students, eighty-
sevent Engineering students, sev
en Science, seven Liberal Arts, one
Veterinary Medicine, four Indus

a continuous agitation against the
“wedge.”
Game Safe
Practically all of the changes in
stituted by the rules committee
were designed to make the game
safer both for the offensive and
defensive player. The new regula
tions were carefully worked out by
the members of the committee, it
was said, after they had studied
the report of Fielding H. Yost of
the University of Michigan on foot
ball deaths.
The rules changes announced are
summarized as follows:
1. Elimination of the “flying
wedge” by requiring at least five
players of the team receiving the
ball to remain within 5 feet of the
retaining line until the ball is ac
tually kicked.
2. Players on the defense are
forbidden to strike an opponent on
the head, neck or face with the
hand, wrist, forearm or elbow.
Penalty: Half the distance to the
penalized team’s goal line.
3. It will be no longer legal to
use the flying block or tackle. Pen
alty: Five yards.
4. The ball will be dead when
any part of the carrier’s body ex
cept his hands or feet, touches the
ground, whether or not he is in the
grasp of an opponent. Exception:
Place-kick.
5. Hard substances used for thigh
guards, shin guards, braces and
similar equipment must be protect
ed by padding.
6. Any player withdrawn from
the game may be returned in any
subsequent period. The team mak
ing the substitution will be charg
ed with “time-out,” however.
Edward K. Hall, chairman of the
rules committee, expressed the
opinion that the new regulations
will make the game safe for high
school boys, as well as older play
ers.
zard” of Blinn college, Hilley, a
forward, who led the field with 20
points to his credit. Of the twenty
markers 18 of them were made in
the final half of the fray, and a
number of them were made in the
final half of the fray, and a num-
>er of them by one hand shots.
Hilley was easily the outstanding
man on the Blinn quintet, both de
fensively and offensively.
There are no “Dietzels” on the
Aggie freshman five but the team
is not lacking a balanced combina
tion, with four men having a total
of more than seventy points amas
sed in the ten games played. Grif-
ith Brezeale, Crockette; who al
ternates at forward and center
leads with 109; Bisby, whose regu
lar post is that of forward, is sec-
nd with 95; while Tommie Ter-
ell, stockey El Paso forward has 71
and Tommie Hutto, Coachoma
guard, boasts a total of 75.
SWIMMING TEAM-
(Continued from page 1)
Water Polo Team. This event will
not be considered as a part of the
meet because neither Rice nor Tex
as have developed a polo team. The
game will be of particular inter
est, because it will likely determine
whether it is feasible for colleges
to organize water polo teams.
Although swimming was not re
cognized by the athletic board as
an intercollegiate sport this year,
the team will continue to compete
with other schools at its own ex
pense.
Members of the team who will
make the trip are: R. R. Osburne,
C. E. Reichart, J. D. Fowler, R. L.
Suggs, W. S. Sinclair, T. U. Uhr,
G. W. Shepherd, C. J. Charske, L.
