Trouble is certainly “brewing”
all around the loop for title hold
ers, as noted by recent victories of
those Owls from the Institute
known as Rice, then Baylor’s Bears
enter the picture and take an easy
game from the Mustangs by a score
which would be more appropriate
at a football game. To cap it all
those lowly Frogs of Texas Chris
tian step up and smite the champs
squarely on the “chin,” 7 to 1, and
make ’em like it.

215 Broadway,
All athletic clubs have off
days—well let’s hope it was
an off day for our baseball
nine last week when they were
so unmercifully trounced by
the Toads, who are certainly
not a team of championship
calibre in the Southwest con
ference. Twelve hits to five
tell the tale very briefly of
how the Aggies met defeat.
Those Owls seemingly have no
regard for reputation as they not
only hand T C U a setback but re
turn three days later to give Uncle
Billy Disch’s touted Longhorns a
drubbing. And those Steers failed
to tally even one earned run in
thirteen frames. Maybe Uncle
Billy’s entry is not so hot this
year after all, or the Owls are quite
a bit warmer.
By comparative results Bay
lor’s Bears are about the class
of the conference at this time.
They easily tripped the Mus
tangs who very nearly took the
Longhorns in camp, who in
turn lost to the Owls by a slim
margin. Then the Owls turned
back to T C U, whose efforts
were not in vain against A
and M. And those may not be
only comparisons, though it is
sincerely hoped so.
Texas University has been as
sured of at least one conference
title this year as their tankmen
took the first Southwest swimming
meet held officially as a confer
ence sport last week. A and M
was second, followed by S M U and
Rice in order. Texas is represent
ed this year by the best swimming
team in their history while A and
M met with the misfortune of hav
ing one of the weaker, but still
capable of taking second place.
place last Thursday afternoon when
the two teams, Greys and Reds de
noted as Navy and Army, fought
for sixty minutes and one lone
score was finally made. Through
out the first half both teams
marched up and down the field
only to have their attacks bog down
in the very shadow of their op
ponents’ goal. The game went on
until the final 35 seconds of play
when the Reds succeeded in com
pleting a forward pass for the
score. The final game of spring
practice is slated for Thursday af
ternoon, April 7.
Longhorns Take
Track Meet With
Top Heavy Score
A speedy group of Texas uni
versity Longhorn thinly-clads cli
maxed their first spring invasion
of Aggieland by defeating the Ag
gie track men 72 2/3 to 49 1/3
Saturday afternoon on Kyle field,
taking 9 out of 16 first places
and tying for first in two other
events. Their marked superiority
lay in the running events wherein
they took first place in all but the
100-yard dash in which Kohler of
the Aggies barely beat Meyers of
Texas across the tape.
A lack of balance seemed to be
the cause of the Aggie downfall.
They were especially strong in
field events taking three firsts and
tying for first in two others, but
exhibited a glaring weakness in the
distances that will probably be
remedied before the conference
meet in Austin, May 14.
Addicks Training Again
The return to practice of G. R.
Addicks, La Grange, who has been
out of action for the past two
weeks has boosted the quarter-mile
stock a great deal as he was sorely
needed Saturday in the 440-yard
dash and the mile relay, Texas
took both first and second places
in these events.
Coach Anderson will probably
have a stronger team to put
against Rice than the one against
Texas. Hector Fuentes, who has
been in the hospital and W. E.
Nance, who started practice late,
are rounding into form.

KELLOGG’S PEP Bran Flakes are a treat
you like and need. Because they’re
just the kind of food that helps to build
and nourish you.
Whole wheat is a natural food for
active bodies. It contains iron and other
minerals, vitamins, and proteins. Kel
logg’s PEP Bran Flakes—the better bran
flakes — are whole wheat — plus the
healthful bulk of bran —plus the match
less flavor of Pep.
They’re good to eat and good for you.

Track prospects of the A and
M team at the conference meet
boast few bright lights, but a
few places are assured with
Sam McCluney and “Honk”
Irwin in the running. Irwin’s
throw of 46 feet in the shot
put last week was the best in
three dual meets. He ajso
threw the discus a representa
tive distance of 142 feet. Sam’s
throw was only inches short of
that made by “Honk.”

College and Bryan
The thinly-clads are due to meet
real competition this week with
Rice Institute’s great array of
trackmen on hand for a dual meet.
The Ricemen boast the conference’s
best track and field team, and made
good that boast at the conference
meet last year and are planning
to repeat this season.
A and M’s net team was
shown a few tricks of “How
tennis should be played” by
the night birds Monday after
noon. Captain Jake Hess and
his mates of Rice gave the
Aggies probably the most
thorough trimming ever ad
ministered them. A lack of suf
ficient courts for practice may
be said to account partially
for the poor showing made by
the A and M racqueteers.
One of the toughest games ever
staged on the sod of Kyle field took
