The Baylor Bear’s first tennis
victory in several years was the
fourth defeat for Coach Thomas’
racquet wielders in as many starts
this season when the Aggies met
defeat last Saturday afternoon in
Waco, the Bears winning three out
of four matches. Rain halted the
doubles matches, but Baylor was
leading.
John Hill of Baylor downed Cun
ningham, Aggies, 6-1, 8-6. Mc-
Cleary defeated Pete Roberson,
Aggies, 7-5, 6-1, while Drake, Bay
lor, beat Bud Emery, Aggies, 6-1,
6- 4. George Williams, Aggies, won
the only match for the cadets in
defeating Bradley of Baylor 7-5,
7- 5.
Saturday the team goes to Aus
tin to play the champion Longhorn
netters, who last Saturday lost
their first conference match in
many years to Rice. The Owls
boast the strongest team in their
history, and are favories to win
the conference tennis title this
year.

Aggie track hopes took another
turn for the better Saturday af
ternoon when “Honk” Irwin,
tnighty weight man from Kosse and
probable future shot-put champion
of the conference, sent the 16-lb.
sphere for a ride which measured
fifty feet, after he had just pre
viously put it 47 feet 7 inches. The
fifty foot put gives “Honk” six
puts which better the conference
record of 48 feet 1/8 inch, held by
Percy Burke of Rice. And the lat
est put gives evidence that just
because he has improved in every
meet save one, in six year’s com

championship for the Aggies.
“Squawk” is not only a con

of major league talent.
j the baseball race, they themselves
being already out of the running.
It is hardly questionable as
to whether “Honk” will set a
new record in the shot-put, but
just what the distance will be
is dangerous to predict. Pro
gressing as he has to date it
would not be surprising should
he approach very closely the
world’s record in that event,
which is slightly more than 52
feet.
• While speaking of professional
baseball prospects last week, Jinx
Tucker, Waco sport scribe, stared
that Paul Donovan of the T C U
Horned Frogs was easily the best
of the lot in the Southwest confer
ence. Several others were mention
ed in this resume but it seems to
us that a grave injustice has been
done to at least two Aggie ball
players by our friend Mr. Tucker.
The reference is made re
garding Capt. Lester “Squawk”
Veltman and W. E. “Sweetie”
Davis. Veltman is the leading
hitter of the loop, a splendid
fielder, and a wonderful man
on the paths. It was none oth
er than “Squawk” that dealt
a telling blow to the pitching
of De La Fuente, Texas Long
horn ace last season, which
“Sweetie” Davis proved his aoil-
ity as a second sacker in that me
morable game with Texas Univer
sity last year when he repeatedly
made sensational plays and batted
near .350 for the season. Although
he is now on a losing club his aver
age with the stick is better than
.400 and his fielding average very
nearly perfect. He is second best
hitter on the Aggie ball club, be
ing bested only by Veltman, and
one of the best in the loop. He is
probably the smoothest second
baseman in the circuit and has a
dependable arm under the most
adverse conditions. Certainly no
professional team of class A rating
could do itself an injustice by giv
ing “Sweetie” a chance, and the
same may be said for “Squawk.”
The next conference track
champion will probably be de
cided Saturday afternoon when
the Aggies, Texas Longhorns
and Rice Owls tie-up in a tri
angular meet at the Longhorn
stadium. The Longhorns re
cently defeated the Owls by a
score of 70 to 52 in a dual meet
at Rice, upsetting the dope and
handing the Institute men their
first set back since the start
of last season. The Steers are
as yet undefeated this season.
Both Rice and Texas are ex
ceptionally strong in the
sprints and middle distances,
Baldry and Burke are due to
gain some points in the
weights and field events, while
Texas should take a first in
the javelin.
While the cinder-men will be
competing with the Owls and the
Steers in Austin, the diamond men
will put forth their best .efforts to
eliminate their age old rivals from
Why is this
vital question so much
avoided by other cigarettes?
VER since Lucky Strike created
that special process for purify
ing fine tobacco and told the full
facts about cigarette smoking—
the industry has been in an uproar.
For Lucky Strike has dared to
mention things that were con
sidered "taboo” in the cigarette
trade.
You may have noticed a striking
avoidance generally of the word
"inhale” in cigarette advertising.
Why? Goodness only knows!
For everybody inhales—knowdngly
or unknowingly! Every smoker
breathes in some part of the smoke
he or she draws out of a cigarette.
That’s why it’s all-important to be
certain that your cigarette smoke
is pure and clean—to be sure you
don’t inhale certain impurities.
Do you inhale? Lucky Strike has
dared to raise this vital question
—for it gives you the protection
you want . . . because certain im
purities concealed in even the
finest, mildest tobacco leaves
are removed by Luckies’ famous
purifying process. Luckies created
that process. Only Luckies have it!

Models Will Replace
Drawings In Beaux
Arts Competitions
Because of too much emphasis
being placed on clever presenta
tions of problems, the directors of
the Beaux Arts Institute of Design
have announced that architectural
students will submit models of their
designs instead of drawings next
year.
This announcement was made at
the first annual meeting of the
Association of Collegiate Schools
of Architecture, according to
Ernest Langford, head of the de
partment of architecture, who at
tended the meeting in Washing
ton, D. C., last week.
