to stand in the way of A. & M.
and the Rose Bowl. It was be
yond his power, however, to can
cel the game.
“Tacoma has been red hot for
the game since A. & M. won the
Southwest Conference title, and
ever since the Washington State
team became the best on the Pacif
ic coast. Never had an intersec
tional game in the state of Wash
ington created as much interest as
this one. That made it far more
difficult to try to cancel the game
. . . After working on the mater
for many hours, the task was
found to be impossible.”
Bruce Layer, sports editor of
the Houston Post, brought forth
the same report as Jinx Tucker in
the former’s daily column, “Sports
of the Day,” in Tuesday’s Post.
Layer said, in reference to post
season games,” December 6 date
with Washington State at Tacoma,
Washington, cost the Texas Aggies
a chance to face Oregon State
in the Rose Bowl New Year’s Day.
“Texas A. & M. was in the mid
dle of the Rose Bowl picture this
year, but there was a little con
tract for a tilt with W. S. at
Tacoma and efforts to cancel out
of the contest failed.
“When that happened the Aggies
faded from the Pasadena setup . .
Washington State defeated the
the Rose Bowl host team and will
be meeting the club Oregon State
tried to get for the Pasadena at
traction.
“So Saturday afternoon, in far
away Washington, I’ll be watching
the “Little Rose Bowl” game of
1941.”
Aggies Water Polo
Team To Play Texas U
Team in Gregory Pool
The Texas Aggie Water
Polo team will meet the Texas un
iversity Longhorn water polo team
in Austin Friday night for the sec
ond time this year. The Aggies
met the Longhorns on Aggie
ground and beat them 18-1. Water
polo team captain Ernie Con
way says that the squad is ready
and will attempt to make the score
even greater.
The game will be played in Greg
ory Gym pool and scoring for the
Aggies will be led by Happy Mc
Kee, who is high score man for
the water polo squad so far.
Coach Adamson has indicated
that he will take the regular squad
which includes such stellar play
ers as Fred Renaud, Bob Taylor,
Bob Cowling and Bob Lapham.
Game time is 8 o’clock.

—BACKWASH—
(Continued from page 2)
“Over in Havana, Cuba,
there is a statue in one of
the many plazas, and this par
ticular piece of statuary is de
voted to the memory of a man
who killed himself. He set
as the objetcive of his life the
amassing of a fortune of
twenty-five millions of dollars.
The first twenty he accumulat
ed in due time but further than
that he could not go. In great
mental distress and embar
rassment because he could gain
a fortune of only twenty mil
lion dollars instead of the
coveted twenty-five, he hang
ed himself.
“Our loss last Thursday,
bringing hurt as it did to all
of us, is not nearly so im
portant as our reaction to that
disappointment. Let us not
get our viewpoint warped—
as for me, I am tremendously
proud of you boys on the club
for the nineteen fine victories
you won, giving us a new high
in continuous victories for this
conference and area. You did
a fine job. The college, cadets,
officers, faculty, and support
ers generally are proud of you
and are indebted to you for
two succsssive seasons of most
exceptional football. That pride
and that gratitude surpasses
by great extremes our disap
pointment of last Thursday’s
loss.”
There are no regrets. After all,
we’ve been on top of the confer
ence heap for three successive sea
sons, losing only two games during
that time . . . And it’s only 51
weeks to Thanksgiving Day, 1942.

strong. The click of the ball may
be heard constantly which sig
nifies that the fellows are put
ting in a lot of practice on the
sport. Class B Swimming is now
in the quarter-finals, and in the
game the other night, H Coast
outclassed F Field to win 38-10.
The Coast boys simply “walked”
away with the meet.
Intramural Heroics and Hysterics
In the class A basketball game
between I Replacement Center
and A Infantry, which I RC won
23-7, K. Brendle of A Infantry
was cautioned that he already had
three fouls against him. “Coach”
Bert Hill then instructed him to
make his “fourth” a good one. Hey,
“coach,” that’s not an attitude to
take.
—REMARKS—
(Continued from Page 2)
and it was they who said an
emphatic “no” to any fight ideas.
Surely, by their actions, the Ag
gies set a standard for all schools
in the conference. No matter how
much rivalry exists between two
student bodies the place to settle
disputes is on the athletic field,
not in the stands or on the cam
pus.

LOUPOT’S
J. E. Loupot, ’32 North Gate
Musical Meanderings
: By Murray Evans
Jack Teagarden does himself
proud in all the musical sequences
of “The Birth Of The Blues.” As
a matter of fact he is the only
one in the cast who looks natural
playing a horn. Although Bing
Crosby and Brien Donlevy sur
pass him infinitely in acting abil
ity, still they look about as much
at home playing the clarinet and
trumpet as Paderewski would
swinging the blues. Teagarden
builds his library at the rate of
four tunes a week. His arranger
is a young Negro, Phil Moore, who
holds a master’s degree in music
and is therefore no duffer when
it comes to turning out sparkling
arrangements for his now boss’ up-
and-coming band.
Tommy Tucker’s smooth orches
tra started something when it
recorder “I Don’t Want To Set The
World On Fire,” with winsome
Amy Arnell doing the vocal. Sales
for this particular record are now
knocking at the door of half a mil
lion. Nickelodeon operators, not
being able to secure the record fast
enough to replace worn-out ones
from so much playing, just turned
the record over and used “This
Love Of Mine” on the reverse side.
And so now this number promises
fair to be Tucker’s next smash
hit.

tution of 1776.
