the war. With th: urgent demands now pre

Written Pledge Required
A few minutes later, they
adopted another stand that no
one could attend a precinct or
county convention this summer
ithout a written pledge to sup-
irt the nominees of the party.
Both resolutions were adopted
without dissent in the commit-
tee’a second consecutive harmony
session.
But, as stated by Committee
man Stuart Long from Austin,
the state regulatory body was
guided by an 8 to 1 opinion of
the Supreme Court.
The court, in effect, held that
the party could demand loyalty.
While at it, the executive com
mittee went through the formal
ity of numberign three places on
the court which will be up for
election this summer.

then pitched to Royalty who cross
ed the double stripes. Duncan’s
point-after - touchdown try was
blocked.
Defense Dominates
Action thep changed back into
rugged defensive play until 10
minutes of the 3rd quarter had
passed, paring the 15-minute in
termission, the fansxdrifted to the
left-end wire fence bf the base
ball diamond and were' entertain
ed by the Aggie baseballers who
were playing an intra-squdd tilt.
The Maroons attempted to
score early in the third s t a n z a
when quarterback Darrow Hooper
faded to his 35-yard line and heav
ed a long lob downfield to Yale
Lary.. But Royalty slapped the ball
harmlessly to the ground to pre
vent a tally.
With five minutes remaining in
the third quarter, the Whites took
the ball at midfield and marched
50 yards to the final touchdown
of the afternoon.
Only Sustained Drive
Running plays with Jim Dobbyn
and Smith spearheadjngi the way
and a 20 yard pass ‘ play from
Sikes to end Walter] Hill placed
the oval on the Marojon five yard
line.
At this spot the Maroon line
stiffened, and after Smith and
Dobbyn bucked the line land one
incomplete pass, Sikes carried the
ball over on a quarterback sneak.
Duncan’s conversion attempt sail
ed wide and the score remained
at 25-7 till the final whistle.
Line-play dominated the remain
ing minutes of the contest with
W. T. Rush, Dick Self, Curl Mol-
berg, Jack Little, and Chuck
O’Neil, a linebacker, turning in
aggressive defensive pltty for the
Maroons.
Gardemnl Thrills Fans
White gridsters of equal show
ing were Wright, Russ HUdeck,
Elo Nohavitza, Max Greiner, and
James Flowers.
In the fourth quarter Garde
mnl thrilled the crowd with a 40-
vnrd jaunt after he had dropped
back to pass but couldn’t spot an
open receiver. The 155 pounder
changed his direction at least
four times as he weaved down-
field.
The White’s offensive punch
was enriched bv Gj*ave’s passes
to Hodge, his brother Rav, and
Herbert MeJunken, who got more
than his share of yardage on the
ground. \
Same Teams Next Week
The last remarkable play of the
game came when Gardemal hit
Lary with a perfect 43-yard pass
after the Fort Worth kicking spec
ialist was surrounded by Maroon
defenders. The ball sailed over
Lary’s shoulder into his arms for
the most beautiful pass play of
the day.
^lame stalwarts along the for
ward wall were Bobby Wright.
Hudeck, Frey, Flowers. and
O’Neil, who was outstanding as
a linebacker.
