Predictions (Continued from Page 5) SMU Power Not Enough, 14-21 Although this is the other game which we said may go either way, we’re forced to stick with Ohio State to win over the Mustangs, 21-14. Another thing which we would like to stick our neck out on. Killer Kyle Rote won’t be the star of the show, win or lose for the Ponies, and that Bill Forrester will get his first big chance. SMU’s handicap will be in the fact that their defense isn’t up to standards needed by a team if it is to win over teams like Ohio State. Coach H. N. Russell will undoubtedly have something spe cial cooked up for the opponents, and that may be all that the Red and Blue will need to take the fa vorites. TCU Sneaks Past Okie A&M, 14-6 It will be about the same as last Running from a formation which week when the Horned Frogs slip- resembles the split T, the Oklaho- ped past Kansas to win and again, ma Aggies will hold an edge in the we pick the Christians, 14-6.

Santa Clara Over Rice, 21-6 It’s a mean thing to say about a school that is opening up a spark ling new stadium which will seat 70,000, but the Santa Clara Broncs are one of the better teams on the coast and should take the Owls, .21-6. In 1943 the SMU Ponies thumped the Broncs solid, that is 33-0, but the Mustangs named Fullback Sax on Wraith to their all-opponent team, and the Californian will be back with the team again this year. Although no one from the big city seems to realize it, the fact remains that last year’s SWC Champs were built on a solid foun dation of seven men, the line. No line, no Rice, we feel that way. We hope we’re wrong, but the Broncs seem to have the necessary power and reserves to go all the way, 21-6. Razorbacks to Click Over NTS, 14-0 The Razorbacks let us down last week when the Oklahoma Aggies, upset the favored Porkers, 12-7, and this week we place Arkansas over North Texas State, 14-0. Arkansas seems to have the nec- esary manpower in every depart ment, and a top coach, but they are not yet a team. Practically everything should go right for the Hogs this weekend, although NTS will be looking for a win after losing last week to mighty Ken tucky. Coach Otis Douglas has undoubt edly been putting the boys through the paces the last few days, and we really look for Arkansas to take the smaller eleven by an even larg er score, but we’ll just wait and see. Baylor Bears to Clip IJ of H, 20-6 Coach George Sauer will be seek ing his first win with the Bruins tomorrow at the new Baylor Sta dium, and things should start look ing better for the Bears with the return of Halfback Buddy Parker. Parker had been debating the sub ject of signing a pro baseball con tract, and missed almost all of workout season. After their upset loss last week, either the Bears have less than everyone anticipates or they’re waiting. This should give the Bears the chance they need and although the University of Hous ton is claiming a fairly good team we’re looking for the Wacoans to defeat the Ploustonians, 20-6. Parkers’ return should help the Bruins, but unless the pass defense of the Bruins is improved, we may lose again. Bob Rogers will be the Cougars big gun, and from our sources of information, he can toss the pigskin with unmeasurable ac curacy. Night school classes in Shorthand, Typing and Bookkeeping will begin October 16 at 7 p.m. For further information call 3-6655.

Ik Marines Pearl Harbor, Sept. 29 — — The U.S. Marine Corps, wh : eh scrambled men togeth er from as far away as the Mediterranean to meet the Korean emergency, intends to keep ad reserves in uniform. Its com mander made that clear yesterday. “Korea has shown us the neces sity of having ready forces avail able to fight anywhere,” said Gen. Clifton B. Cates on a stopover en- routc to Korea. The general said the corps’ fight ing arm, the Fleet Marine Force 1 numbered only about 25,000 when the Reds invaded South Korea June 25. To get the necessary men, Cates said, some were taken from Se curity Forces at naval bases. Some were veterans of World War . II and joined the division sent to Ko rea without any refresher train ing. “The thing that’s remarkable is the way that division was assem bled,” the General said. “It was thrown together and it made a damm good team.” He put present strength of the Marine corps at 120,000 and said he hoped to reach authorized strength of 160,000 men by the end of this year. “There is no plan whatsoever for releasing reserves” he said. “International circumstance's do not warrant releasing anyone.” Social List Boots Vaughan, Other Washington Bigwigs Washington, Sept. 29—(AP)—“The social list of Wash ington” came out yesterday with its 20th annual edition. The press release announcing the book noted that the name of Maj. Gen. Harry H. Vaughan, the President’s mili tary aide, had been dropped. As usual, no reason for the emmission was given. The book, which sells for $12.50, is published by Carolyn Hagner Shaw. Vaughan displayed unconcern over the ommission of his name. “I never missed my name,” he said, “because I didn’t know I ever was in it.” The book also omits the names of some other prominent persons, obviously because they no longer hold official posts and have moved out of town. These include Louis Johnson, former Secretary of Defense; Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney, former Undersecretary of Commerce, and Admiral Louis A. Denfeld, former Chief of Naval Operations. Experiment Station Gets Grant-in-Aid A check for $5,700 renewing a grant-in-aid to the Agricultural Experiment Station, has been re ceived. The money will be used for carrying on poultry improvement work, according to Dr. R. D. Lewis, station director, announces. The fund is from the Texas Poul try Improvement Association of Stephenville. J. K. Williams of Denison is president and T. A. Hensarling is executive secretary of the association.

The audience was both amused and surprised when Stiteler said “Texas only gained 120 yards rush ing against Tech, while the Raiders made 235 yards against the Long horns. Then this means that Tech has the best line in the country,” was the coy conclusion. Stiteler expalined why so many secret practice sessions behind locked gates were called. “We do this not because we are practicing on a secret play or maneuver. Reason for Secrecy “We have full confidence in our student body. If you were out there on the field with one of your best friends watching you, it would be embarrassing to you when we criticized you for not carrying a play out in the right method. That’s why we call so many secret sessions.” The crowd was highly receptive to Abb Curtis, who pointed out why football rule changes were made for 1950. “Many fans have wondered why football changes a lot of its rules annually while, on the other hand, baseball remains the same from year to year,” he said. “Football is a body contact game, and with the passing of every Business Society Selects Officers The Business Society elected of ficers in its initial meeting of the 1950-51 school year Tuesday night, Sept. 26 in the Ballroom of the MSC. r Lloyd Manjeot, CO of Co. 9, was elected president of the group.

Dave Fitch, associate professor of Business Administration, was selected as sponsor of the Busi ness Society. year, new equipment, new strategy, and different playing methods are introduced. In order to better pro tect the players from injury, new rules are adapted.” Curtis, who began his SWC offi ciating in 1929, brought out the most important rule changes. • A line clearly marked around each playing field, which Restricts all persons other than players to not cross. This rule was establish ed because many spectators, most ly reporters and photographers, were injured last season. • An extra point kickoff varia tion which permits a tbam fouled while trying for extra point an ad vantage of from five to fifteen yards on the kickoff, This rule is elective, whether the point is made or not. • The extra point holder is now protected. A defensive player must not touch the ball ohlder. This also applies to the punter and passer. • The free catch has been omit ted. A player receiving a punt or kickoff is now subject to immedi ate tackle if he catches the ball. • The clipping penalty has been changed, in that a blocker is per mitted to contact an opponent from the rear, if it is above the waist. • Punts received in the end zone may now be run out, without an automatic touchback being called. • No blocking with the forearm is permitted above the shoulders. • Fife “times-out” in each half instead of four.
