One of the aims of the federa tion is to fores drastic reductions in the state's appropriations for its oolleges, according to its lead ers. This has lad to considerable criticism of the sort of education of feted by some of the institutions under firs. In a recent report an offkdal of the federation said of the State Teachers College: “We find a school which is sup posed to be teaching boys and girls to bo teachers, which has 84 courts* in physical education alone. The school offers courses in ^pesd ball, touchball, spring football, varsity football, volley hall, baseball, playground baseball, tennis, swimming, gymnastics, clog dsuicing, natural dancing, scarf (fencing, folk dancing and dancing techi4que. w “Bat if you want your children to s^udy kitty boll you will have to send them to the University of HOWDY GANG Glad To Soo Too Back I l' r hi Aggieland Barber , Shop R.

Out of the maze since last Jan uary, the Cadets have only finish ed in the lead In one event—the cross country meet held at Hous ton November 26. The University of Texas Longhorns and The Texas Aggies tied for the championship in this even*. Although the cross-country was the only event that the Fanners woo any championship honors in, they had a fairly consistent ath letic record, placing second in track and swimming; third in base ball 'and basketball; and took fourth place in the football race just fiaished. Although water polo has not been recognised as an intercollegiate sport, the Ag gie* played a game with, the Long horns and won it last y«ft. The basketball team was waken ed by the fighting A and I Jave lins basketball team and stormed through the holiday games with f° r four straight wins and no loeaes til 1 after the Javelinas gave them the only defeat thus far in the season out of seven games.

In the f*n>* with the Texaco Scotties from Houston, the Farm ers were lagging at the half. Coach Reid took up the score book, took two glances at it, scowled and slammed the door behind him as he entered the dressing room where his downcast followers were waiting to hear his words. When time can <> to resume play, the boys came tearing out of the lock er room like mad and looked like a different team the second half. The formerly winning Scottiee were sble to make only one field goal during the remaining part'of the game and the wore ended Aggie* 29, Scotties 20. Mstty Bell is b<-mg mentioned as one of the prospects for the Texas University coaching job, along with Voyle* and Chevigny. The athletic committee seems to be *t question on the mlary to bo paid and how they agree on the amount to be paid will largely de- ‘ ter mine who will occupy the posi tion next year. ^Tie' committee meets next Friday and will decide at that time who they want. The committee would not go wrong if they selected Bell for this position. Say what you may, conditions out of the control pf any coach have hampered Bell from putting out a championship team at A and M and with t^ie ample football material that the Univer sity of Texas attracts, he could put oat a team that would deal misery to any in the Soathwest conference. It does credit to any school to have a team with the good sportsmanship, clean, and fair play that a Bell coached team shows. 1— .. fi ] j r : It adds something to tha , 1 \ makes No football captain has been elected by the members of the team 1934. The team will wait un- Homer Norton take* over the reins for spring training and may not chose a captain even at that time. \, The rea'OR for hia delay is that Coach Norton yhas not had cap tains of his teafes for the entire year before hut instead has select ed the man to run yie team for each individual game. Although Coach Norton told the team that he would not endeavot to ahaag? any of the customs of the planar* \ the lettermen decided to wait unfed* later to act. The policy of having a different captain each game \s a good one from several different views. It does not put the load on one man all year, it gives every man a chance to pilot the team, and it ^ causes every man to keep up with the plays *nd signals at all times because he does aotjknhw at which time he may be called on to run them. Such small matters as these may seem trivial at times but small things sometimes mean • the difference of winning or losing a football game. The new state high school champions, LreenviDe High School, uses the same method.] Coach Henry Frnka chooses his captain usually a week before the game, and whether this detail was a fac- . , tor or not in the team* winning the championship, it suCely did not hamper it. The (Jrfemille Lions had one of the smoothest working teams that I haye ever seen when they plastered the . Dallas Tech Wolves 21-0 in the State Champion ship game. 1 "A \\ -d- Modern storage warehouse for Chesterfield tobacco the cigarette that’s MILDER • the cigarette that tastes EUROPEAN WINE CELLAR 'OMEfrHING like the method of ageing fihe wines is used in age ing and mellowing the tobaccos for Chetterfieldi cigarettes.
