In 1922 H was Dana Bible, now at the helm of the lowly Steers, who carried the Haroon and White to Austin when.- the Caceta won 14 to. 7. That victory proved to be coetly because the next year the Longhoma came to College and defeated a superior Aggie eleven 6 to 0. Comiqg up to the days that ws all remember, say 19.'! 5, tbs Cadets have had the better teams all alonf. In ’35 the Aggies won at homn 2tf to 6. It was a very windy day and the entire game was play ed on the aouth en<i of Kyle Field. That day "Bomber" Lindsey, great giant Aggie Tackle, stepped back to Idkk a field goal, bat Instead he r'—• . , —iw ■ passed f#r a touchdown. The Steers were so surprised that they were only playing ball becaaae they were on the field. There van no spirit left in them. In *36 one of the strongest Cadet teams of recent years traveled all over the country playing aa many as three games in eight days. When they finally came to the Texas game they were played and travel ed oat. The Aggies were low and the Steers were high that memorial day in Austin. The game ended with the Steers winning 7 to 9. Last year the teams met on Kyle Field. The Aggies were held to a mere seven points, but that was enough margin for a victory. This is another year. Hie Steers hava not won a game this season. If they beat the Aggies they will consider that they have had a suc cessful seaaoa. We are eorry Mr. -r— COLLEGE STATION NOVEMBER 18,1!

With only one lettennan back from last year’s squad, the Cadet hopes for conference laurels are mighty dim. Sammy Dwyer, Cap tain and only letterman^ will lead his mates to the basketball wars thia season. To h.-lp him will be Woody Varner, junior squa<bnan and B. J. Adams, squadman. These two boys are both forwards and the only returning players from last year. About the only bright spot in the whole set-up is tha expected pUy of a couple of sophomores. J. T. Lang, All-Stater from Bryan a.few years back and *Big Dog" Da son are being greomed to fill the vacancies left by gradustion. Odell Herman, another buttling sopho more, Mgr swing into action and five everyone a face. J. A. Carri- gan, junior college transfer, is ex pected to win a place as a forward on the team, along with Adam*. Right at present the guard posi tion* seem to be the strongest, with Dwyer and Lang—two very smooth performers—holding . the inside track o* the jobs. At center Daw- j son will probably hold sway, if his knee ever heals, and the forwards will indude Adams, Carrigan and Varner. Studtbaker Hoick Brazos Motor Co.
