Hers is what Blair Cherry, one
of Dana Bible’s assistant eo»cb*«s,
told the Evening Journal of Lub
bock. ‘The University had the old-
fashioned idea that it was big
enough in iu own right to attract
all kinds of scholars, including
football players, without benefit
of recruiting and subsidising. It
has turned out that it was the
wrong idea, or at
ha idea. So from now on, we’re- in
the thick of the fight for athletes.
We’re gonna go after that
like the other schools are
pftor them.’
ITiat is the kind of talk ms
to hear. We are for the Uni
every time except when they
»ying A. A M., but we are
that they are going to stop
“poppycock” while at the i
time sticking a knife ia c
schools' back when going after , ap
athlete.
We are glad to aae Texas step

in the open like the rest of ha
schools
