Odell, 200-pound sophomore, will start at the pivot position. Odell is big and willing, but lacks experience. Coach Dutch Meyer is stressing pass defense in practice sessions this week. The Frogs have look ed pretty capable in rushing de fense, with only six first downs made through their line in three games. But Indiana passed them to death, completing 10 out of 14 attempts for a total of 177 yards. Both Indiana touchdowns—the only points scored on the Frogs in three games—came from passes, one for 20 yards and one for 58. semble in the respective areas designated, in column of companies, each company in mass formation. c.

DAVIS 1st Lt., Infantry Acting Commandant elay not On Kyle Field By Mike Haikin (Continued from Page 3) Meantime, here’s something to think about when comparing the two stars of the opposing teams, Kyle Gillespie and Derace Moser . . . In three games, Gillespie has carried the ball 52 times for 189 yards, ... he lost 40 for a net total of 149 yards . . . Moser has carried 27 times for a gain of 238 yards ... he lost only one yard for a net average of 137 yards, on ly 12 behind Kyle ... As for pass ing, Moser leads Gillespie by quite a few yards .. . Derace has thrown 47 aerials and completed 26 for 364 yards for a .553 average . . . Gil lespie has completed 16 out of 34 for 176 yards for a .471 average . . . .In the kicking field, Gillespie has an average of 38.2 yards, while Moser has an average of only 24.6 .. . . Last week Gillespie kicked for an average of 42.8, while Moser punted for an average of 37.3 . . . In pass interceptions, Kyle has snagged 4 of the opponents’ for 56 yards . . . Moser has one for 89 yards. Hunger movements in the empty stomach tend to stop under hyp notic suggestion, according to Ronald E. Scantlebury, of Wayne university’s college of medicine.

FOODS GROUP ig of tne Poods liroup Campus Social Club will be held Thurs day afternoon, October 16, at 3 o’clock at A meeting of the Foods Group of the an day the home of Mrs. W. E. Long, 200 West Dexter, College Park. “Let’s Sharpen our Wits, Food Buyers,” is the topic to be discussed by Mrs. A. L. Schipper. Old and new members are invited. Every Third Year Brings TCU Wins Texas Christian fans are be ginning, hopefully, to put the ac cent on 1941. Three years have rolled around now since the great 1938 club swept everything before it. And in case you don’t know it, this three year cycle is a mystical per iod for the Horned Frogs. It all started back in ’29, when the Christians carried off their first conference championship, win ning nine and tieing one. Three years passed, and 1932 brought another championship, a- long with finest line that the South west has ever seen. Three more years passed, and ’35 produced an eleven that, al though it missed the champion ship, won in the Sugar Bowl from L.S.U. 3 to 2 and was aclaimod among the nation’s leaders. Grid fans don’t have to be re minded of T. C. U.’s ’38 entry, three years later. The Frogs were No. 1 in the nation that season, un defeated and untied, Southwest and Sugar Bowl champs. Now, another three years have passed. The '41 Horned Frogs are not supposed to have it—and T. C. U. fans will not contend that point. But they do point out that this is 1941, that three years have passed, and that the Frogs are due! The Red Cross sewing room at 413 Trockmorton (old Puryear residence) will be open each Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Anyone interested is urged to come and work.—Mrs. G. W. Adriance. RURAL SOCIOLOGY CLUB There will be an important meeting of, SENIOR RINGS Under the provisions of the Federal Tax Law which went into effect on October 1, 1941, all Senior Rings purchased on or after that date will have a ten percent tax added to the price of the ring. De posits made prior to that date will be exempted from the tax. The balance due is subject to a ten percent increase. It is our understanding that there is to be no tax added on rings delived to this office prior to October 1, 1941.—H. L. HEATON, Act. Registrar. —INVITATIONS— (Continued from Page 1) to cooperate on anything else that is requested of us. “We do hope the student body will give Fort Worth’s invitation due consideration.” The chamber of commerce sent the following invitation: “The Fort Worth Chamber of Commerce joins the citizens of our city in extending to you a most hearty invitation to visit our city during the T. C. U.- A. & M. football game on October 18. “We in Fort Worth have always deemed it an honor to have such a fine group of young men, repre senting the largest college of its kind in the United States, visit our city on occasions of this kind. We assure you that this organiz ation will be glad to cooperate to make your stay in Fort Worth a pleasant one.” K. N. Howard, chief of police of Fort Worth sent this invitation: “We extend to each of you a cordial invitation to visit Fort Worth October 18th, 1941. I am informed that Texas Christian Un iversity is making plans for a big party on this date. Fort Worth al ways looks forward to having you as our guest. You always conduct yourselves in a fine manner that reflects honor and credit to your school. I know of no other college that has a finer group than yours.” Classified LOST—CAMEO ring in Campus Theatre on the afternoon of Oct. 7. Return to Dick McIntyre, Room 53, Foster. Reward. Musical Meanderings By Murray Evans As long as the Inkspots continue to turn out recordings like “I Don’t Want to Set The World On Fire,” they will retain their popularity. Tall, slender Billy Finney, the tenor of “If I Didn’t Care” fame, sings this one and is backgrounded by the typical Inkspot harmony. Orrin Tucker’s band has the reputation of being the neatest in the business. Before each engage, ment, Tucker has his men line up for inspection. A spotted dress shirt, unpressed trousers, or wrinkled coat brings down a fine on the head of the offender. Frank Sinatra, with Tommy Do ’- sey, is making a reputation for himself. He was chosen as the No. 1 male vocalist in a recent poll of name orchestras. His suc cess was begun, for the most part, by his vocal on Dorsey’s “I’ll Neve v Smile Again,” in which he was ably assisted by the Pied Pipers. Incidentally, this record was the top seller for last year. Tommy Tucker has a novel idea, for subsidizing draftees selected out of his band. Each week every member of his organization chips in a dollar toward augmenting the meagre $21 a month received by the draftee, and that makes $17 a week extra which he will receive. Beautiful Amee Arnell contributes her dollar along with the others. Amee, by the way, is one of the very best female vocalists to be found. She has a quaint but lova ble southern accent, hails from Virginia, and has been with Tucker for lo, these many years. Dr. H. W. Hooper Dentistry College Hills Phone 4-8704 Something LOST—Old fashioned gold locket and chain. Initial “S.” formed on face of locket by small stones. Return to Lt. Valliant, Military Dept. Reward.
