A continuance of the "Co-Ed Suit", filed recently in the District Court in Bryan, was ordered by Judge W. C. Davis and a tentative date for the next hearing schedul• ed for October 21st. The continu• ante resulted from the upholding by Judge Davis of the contention by Judge Nelson Phillips of Dallas, chief counsel for the A. & M. Col• lege Board of Directors, that each member of the Board must be name ed in the suit and served, In the initial application far the writ o1 mandamus to force the College tc enroll Bryan girls, only President Walton and Judge Byrd E. White of Dallas, acting President of the Board at the time the suit was fil• ed, were served. The District Court room in Bry Ian was well filled when the case opened, Col. C. C. Todd, '97, rep- resented the group of Bryan girl: applying for the writ of mandam- us. The College was represented by Judge Nelson Phillips, his son; Nelson Phillips, Jr., and Homer De ,Wolfe, Assistant Attorney-Genera; ~ of the State. At the trial were present several members of the Board of Directors of the College, among them F. M. (:Law, '95, President of the Board (Continued to page 4) FT. WORTH FOR OFFICIAL TRIP According to a recent decision by the Senior Class of A. & M., the Cadet Corps will move on Ft. Worth on October 21st., in the of- ficial Corps Trip of the year. Both Ft. Worth and Houston had in- vited the Corps to make. the trip to their respective cities. The Sen- iors stated that practically the en- tire Corps would go to Houston for the Rice game on November 18th., but it was felt the Ft. Worth trip, should be the Corps Trip for the year. Faculty action has discour- aged more than one official Corps Trip oath year. Special trains will carry the Corps to Ft. Worth early on the morning of October 21st. Upon ar- rival the Cadets will stage a parade then move on to the T. C. U. Cam- pus where a complimentary bar- becue will be given them. The T. C. U. Student Body, the Ft. Worth A, & M, Mothers Club and the Ft. Worth A. & M. Club, together with various business organizations and individuals will cooperate in en- tertaining the Corps, R. C. Watkins, '95, is Vice Pres- ident and General Manager of the Southern Pacific Lines in Louisi- ana. His headquarters are at New Orleans. He was one of the Many A. & M. men who got a big after- s noon of pleasure in watching the Aggies trounce Tulane recently. "The panting Tulane Forwards sway; 'Fore Texas brawn and brain- They stagger, totter, melt away- The Farmers score again." So runs a poem in the 1903 Longhorn, reporting the first meet- ing of the Texas Aggies and the Tulane Greenies nn the football field. The great 1903 A. & M. team, undefeated and champions of the South, beat Tulane that ,year; and A. & M. teams continu- ued to trounce the Green Wave un- til five years ago when the tide turned and for four straight ,years the Cadets bowed before Tulane power and speed. This year's A. & b1. victory on September 30th., 13 to 6, was thus doubly pleasing to the Farmer fans. Revenge for past defeats at the hands of the Green Wave was sweet; and the challenging surge of a powerful and aggressive Aggie eleven even sweeter to loyal followers who have backed weak teams for several years. 'I'plnmz OntrlassPd The score rails to indicate the supremacy of the Cadet eleven. A rushing, charging, hard-tackling Maroon line almost stopped the Tulane running attack cold and opened holes thru which the Far- mer backs gained many yards. A diversified attack, with splendid kicking, kept the ball in Tulane ter- ritory thru most of the game. The Greenies scored their only touch- down in the last minute of play, with many A, & bl. substitutes in the line-up. Ted Spencer, the Gihner Power- House, playing fullback and calling signals, was a big factor in the Aggie victory. "Muggins" Fowler, with his fine southpaw kicking and passing, Domingue, I{imbrough and Couser likewise starred in the backfield. The entire Farmer line was outstanding, with "Dinah" Merka and Ullrich at tackles look- ing particularly good. Stan Stach, Aggie sophomore center, gavo no- tice that he would become one of the best in the conference. Illness kept Captain Charlie Cummings out of the game except for a few minutes. Aggies Score Late in the first quarter the Ag- gies started for their first touch- down when Kimbrough intercepted a Tulane pass and carried the ball to Tulane's 36 yard line. Domingue ripped of the first real running gain of the day with a twelve yard sprint around right end. After two plays had gained only a few yards the good ]eft arm of Fowler went into action with a pass to Kimbrough that was good for 20 yards and carried to the Tulane four yard line. On the first play of the second quarter Domingue carried the ball over for the tally and then kicked goal to put the Farmers in the lead, 7-0. In the third quarter Couser, playing in Domingue's place start- ed the second scoring drive with the most sensational run of the day. Standing on his own 20 yard line the little Sophomore back took a Tulane punt and writhed and twisted his way for 60 yards back down the field to put the ball on the Tulane 20 yard line. He was loose for a touchdown at one time, but was run down from be- hind when his speed was slackened in silo-stepping the Tulane safety. The deadly Farmer aorta] attack was once more brought into action. Couser passed to Connelley far five (Continued on Page 3) -Courtesy, The Dallas Journal-Dallas News THE TEAS AGGIE Published Semi-Monthly at the A. & M.

It would be difficult, for example, to find an- other subject upon which the re- actions of the former students of the college would be so nearly una- nimous. There are some loyal and sincere A. & M, men who think co- education will eventually come to the campus, but even these have turned the back of their hand to- ward the misses who would force their way in. And for every one of these there are literally hundreds who abhor the very thought of girls at A. & M. Even the Press of the state has refused to take the matter serious- ly, with cartoons and humorous editorials making light of the plea of the Bryan girls. The A. & M. Student body, whose young hearts beat as eagerly for feminine at- tention as any young hearts in this nation, are even against co- education, the their position on the matter is less definite than that of the former student. Without going into the co-ed ar- gument at all, the AGGIE feels that the suit was decidedly ill-ad- vised. Certainly, Bryan has made no friends for itself as a city, and although the suit was filed by in- dividuals, the city as a whole will receive credit for the action. "Thmnbs Down", has been the almost unanimous reaction to the suit, from the Boat•d of Directors of the College who are aggressive- ]yfighting the action, to the fresh- man who just entered the college a few weeks ago.

IN :MEMORIAM Charles Quereau, '26 Ft•iends of Charles H. Que- reau, of San Antonio, were shocked to read of his death in Amarillo on the night of October 7th. He was killed when he fell from the 14th stol•y of an Amarillo Hotel. There were no witnesses, and as Quereau was subject to walking in his sleep it is presumed this led to his fatal fall. At the time of his death he was on active duty as First Leiutenant in the Civilian Conservation Corps, and was assisting in moving a camp from Fart Logan, Colorado, to Texas for the winter. Prior to his taking active duty with the C. C. G, he was with the firm of Richey and Casey of San Antonio. His home address in San Antonio was 1306 Ashby Place. Quereau was never married and was sur- vived by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. E. C. Quereau of San Antonia. "Charley" Quereau was one of the most popular men of his class. He was a cap- tain in the cadet corps and was Valedictorian of the 1926 class. r._ E. W.

Because of a reduction in the college teaching staff, Kay Beach, last years' leader, will be unable to direct this year but a capable man, E. W. Glenn of the drawing department, has been found to take his place. In the past the club has made many trips to various Texas cities and plans are to continue the prac- tice. THOMAS MAYO--- ] HIS COLUMN t It's always interesting to watch, in its various stages, the awaken- ing of the new College Year. A- bout the first of September the dusty stillness that prevails after Summet• School ends is faintly dis- turbed by the return of that part of the faculty who got away for a vacation. Those who have been in cooler climes go about puffing and pulling their collar-bands out from theit• perspiring necks and wondering why school doesn't wait until October 1 to open. Then a sprinkling of prospective Fish appear, all down early to try to land a job of some kind, all looking rather lost and homesick,) with no place to go and very little I to do, A lordly racket proclaims the arrival of the FOOTBALL HEROES for Fall Practice . Why it is that football players are almost invariably so good natured and easy to get along with? I be-. lieve that it's because they are the ARISTOCRATS of the College World. Being looked up to-almost adored-by every underclassman at least, they at•e entirely free from any semblance of an inferiority complex. And it's an inferiority complex of some kind or other that causes most of the personal disa- greeableness in the world, Of course, a football player has occasionally to put up with a piece of impertinence from some churl- ish prof, but he rarely resents this. It isn't sufficiently important! The outcome of this situation is, as we have all observed, that foot- ball players are nearly always good fellows-as most aristicratic types are. Your true aristocrat is never b h ct him- placed in the Asbut•y Room on the third floor of the Library, which is also a Club Room, open to any student club organized for an in- tellectual purpose. In this connection I can only remark (and those who also know Doc will join me heartily) that I hope we'll have to wait a long, long time for the Asbury Collec- tion! .,lr. Fritz Hensel and his brother have also enriched the Library by the gift of their father's excellent personal collection of books, about seven hundred volumes. Aside from its intrinsic value, which is very great, the Hensel Collection pre- sented an interesting picture of the intellectual interests of a deep- ly cultivated American gentleman. Before we distributed the books to their proper places in the Library, we displayed them all together for two weeks, and the boys showed a gratifying interest in them. This gift constitutes one more reason (though not the greatest) why the name of Hensel should be respected at College Station, The Library is offering this year a very informal course, without college credits, in General Reading. The idea back of the course is this: Every year, I am asked to make out at least a hundred "lists of good books to read". Well, I am always pleased to do so, but the trouble is that I rarely hear any more from them, and wonder some- times whether their recipients ever' read through them. This year, any man who wants direction in his voluntary, extra-curricular reading will come to see me and let me help him select ten good books to t•ead during the session. Then each man will be assigned a conference hour with me every two weeks, when we'll discuss the book which he is reading at the time. At the end of each term I'll give an ex- Fifty-two yearttng steers rave J. F.

Engineering Ex-es may be inter- ested to hear that we have finally concentrated, in a front room on the first floor of the Library, all the books, periodicals and other documents on engineering that the College owns, The roam will be open to everyone during the after- noons and evenings, with an atten- dant present to check books in or out, and tables and chairs for study. The old Lounge, which used to oc- cupy this room, has been moved back to the Longhorn Room, now vacated by the Longhorn boys, who have a grand new apartment in the New Administration Building. Since I have allowed• myself to begin talking about the Library, I may as well go on and tell about some valuable gifts that we have received. In the first place, Doc Asbury has willed the entire con- tents of his house to the Library. At his death the whole collection, including four Steinway pianos, a small but priceless collection of books on early Texas history, the best private collection of music and records which I have ever seen, and about two hundred framed copies of Old Masters-will be Metal Bakers which has already made possible in these two weeks several new and different dishes in the mess hall. The corps has a number of even more pleasing and appetizing dish- es to look forward to, according to J. C. Hotard. The uses of these heat and stain resisting Bakers permits the preparation of scores of dishes not possible with the china platters and bowls previous- ly used. Meat pies, baked maca- roni, baked hash, scalloped pota- toes and many such items will be in order throughout the ensuing year. The investment was made in an effort to reduce the breakage bill and to make possible the prepara- tion of dishes heretofore impos- sible. All savings made through this move will be turned back to the corps in the form of better food. It is Mr. Hotard's plan to replace by next year all of the table ser- vice with this new chromium alloy. Porter C. Gentry, '28, is super- intendent and teacher of vocational agriculture in the Thrall Public Schools at Thrall, Texas, .rpo~T ~ Fo~~~~ Ray Morrison's Mustangs con- tinue to be impressive. Their victories over Texas Tech and Rice confirm their selection as an early season favorite for high conference honors. Baylor, in losing to Cen- tenary and Arkansas, has been dis- appointing, although it might be pointed out that they were beaten by among the best teams in this section of the country. They are all excited in Arkansas over the Razorbacks, and well they may be. The Hogs to date have mowed down T. C. U. and Baylor, and are in better position for a Conference title than ever before in their history. They meet three more teams, S. M. U. at Fayette- ville, Rice at Houston and Texas at Austin. The Aggies looked impressive against Tulane, but have not shown much against Sam Houston and Texas A. and I. They meet their crucial test next Saturday at Ft. Worth against Francis Schmidt's Frogs. Not in eight years have the Aggies beaten the T. C. U. football team and a victory this fall will not only be a big help toward conference honors but will break a jinx that has become much it more than tiresome. Texas and Rice look something alike in their early season per- formances. Both will be no set- ups, and liable to win several con- ference games. Neither look like champions or even runners-up, but they may have considerable to say as to just who the champion may be. The Aggies are expected to be in the pink of condition for the T. C. U. garne. Slight injuries kept "Muggins" Fowler and Bill Kimbrough out of the Texas A. & I. game, but they will be ready at Ft. Worth. Big Ted Spencer seems to have the signal-calling job sewed up on the Aggie eleven this year. He has shown excellent judgement in calling plays and looks like one of the best field generals in the con- ference this fall. The case of Charlie Ullrich, big Aggie tackle, is a sort of Horatio Alger affair. He came to A. & M. in 1930, rated as a pretty fair foot- ball prospect from Hallettsville. He failed to prosper in a football way, but what he lacked in ability he made up in determination. Every fall found him on the "Scrub" eleven, evex•y winter found him playing "Battalion" football and every spring found him in spring pactice. This fall, with Charlie Cummings weak from illness, he stepped into the Aggie line, and his play to date has been outstand- ing. He turned in a fine game a- gainst Tulane, blocking and recov- ering akick; and then in the Saxn Ilouston tilt he shifted over to the other side of the line and well re- placed the injured Merka. He is to- day avery capable tackle and one of the reasons "Bones" Irwin is happy over his Aggie line. This year's garne completed the Aggie-Tulane contract and the teams will not meet next fall. Re- lations with the Greenies have been most pleasant and the Aggie game has a big drawing card in the Crescent City. But as a season opener it was too tough and the Tulane folk cannot be blamed for that stand. The Aggies and the Greenies have met many times in the past, and when Tulane sche- dules another game with a South- west Conference team, they have promised to give A. & M. the game if it is wanted. The Tulane place on the farmer Schedule will be filled the next two years by "Pop" Warner's Temple University team of Philadelphia. The teams meet in Philly in 1934 and in Dallas in 1935. Stanfield Stach, the Aggie's 19U pound sophomore center, bids fair to be an All-Conference player in his first year and to become one of the greatest centers in Confer- ence history. His play to date has been outstanding. He comes from Cameron, and after his high school days played under "Puny" Wilson at Allen Academy. One entry in the Side-Line Coaches contest got his card in late but wrote to say it was filled FISH HOLD FIRST SCRIMMAGE ~YITH AGGIE RESERVES Stringfellow Scares Lone Ag- gie Tallie In Early Stage of Contest. Coach "Little Hig" Higginboth- am's Squad "A" freshman foot- ball team was given its first test of the season Monday afternoon, when it held the varsity reserves to one touchdown in scrimmage on Kyle Field. The lone marker was made on a sweeping end run by Jack Stringfellow, fast varsity halfback, from the ten yard line after a punt was blocked and x•e- covered by the varsity in the first few minutes of play. The freshmen presented one of the strongest lines and shiftiest backfields in recent years. G. A. Wyatt, quarterback from Abilene held the spotlight of the after- noon for the freshmen by his spec- tacular runs and accurate passing. Other members to stand out were: W. W. Greene, Corsicana, halfback, Selmer Kirby, Amarillo, tackle; i Pete Dowling, Houston, end; and C. R. Barber, Abilene, tackle. Coach Higginbotham used practi- cally his entire Squad A in the melee.

Bill Parker, Associated Press Sports writer picked the conference teams to finish in the following order, T. C. U., Texas, Arkansas, A. & M. Baylor, S. M. U., and Rice.

BEARKATS FALL IN NIGHT GAME AT HUNTSVII,I,E Playing their third game of the season, Matty Bell's Texas Aggies blasted their way to a 34-14 vic- tory over the Bearkats of the Sam Houston State Teachers College in a night game at Huntsville on Oc- tober 6th. The game was witness- ed by a record Huntsville crowd of nearly five thousand spectators. Not since 1928 have ine Aggies been able to turn in wins in their first three games of the season. The powerful Farmer line again featured, with the Bearkats help- less against its fast and powerful charges. Only. thru the air were the home boys able to gain, and here they showed a sensational brand of football. "Frenchie" Domingue was the big star of the evening with his twisting, writhing runs that spelled disaster for the Teachers. The Ag- gies lost no time in scoring, witlx Domingue going over in the first three minutes of play. The second tally came in the second quarter; a pass Fowler to Murray gained 47 yards before Fowler went over for the touchdown. Late in the same quarter the Teachers scored after recovering a fumble on the Farmer 30 yard line. With the regulars back in the line-up the Aggies made a race track of the gridiron for the first ten minutes of the third quarter. Fowler, Gregory, Kimbrough and Domingue ran over a pair of touch- downs, and then Ray Murray knocked a pass into the air, ran under it and carried it over for another score. The Bearkats tallied again in the fourth quarter, again on passes against the reserve team. Fullback Spencer and tackle Merka were out of the game with injuries, their places being well filled by Gregory and Ullrich. Practically every player on the Farmer squad saw service before the evening was over. Over $5000 Worth of Equipment Added To College Hospital At a cost of more than five thousand dollars, the college hos- pital has been refinished through- out and a new hot and cold water system installed. Ice-water foun- tains have been placed on each floor. Ceiling fans in every room will aid in securing a more efficient system of ventilation, :I. E. Marsh, college physician and hospital head, announced. A modern the kitchen with up to date equipment replaced the old furnishings. 250 Side-Line Coaches Away In Annual Contest Two hundred and fifty Side Line Coaches got away to an even start in the Fourth Annual Contest sponsored by the Texas Aggie. The entry list was the largest in the history of the contest, and competition for the winning prizes promises to be keen. All entries received were post-marked before noon on October 7th., with the open- ing "Guesses" of the contest being played that afternoon. One entry got his card in at the last minute, explain- ing the delay and that he had not "Fudged". The best proof of his honesty was in the fact that he missed three out of the first four games on the list. Reports of the contest will be given from time to time in the Texas Aggie. POWERFUL AGGIE- (Continued from Page 1) yards, and then Fowler flipped an- other one to Connelley to take the ball to the five yard line. After two running plays had failed Fowler again flipped one, this time to Jack Stringfellow fora touchdown. The goal was missed. The Tulane score came in the closing minutes of play when a desperate passing attack, carried with some nice running, carried the ball to the Aggie's two yard line. With the aid of an off-side penalty the Green wave scored on the fifth try. A. & M. Fans Happy Scores of A. & M. men who live in New Orleans and other Louisana cities were made happy by the vic- tory. Many fans followed the team to New Orleans, there being deleg- ations present from Houston, Beau- mont, Port Arthsur, Waco, Mc- Kinney, Bryan and many other points. The game was witnessed by a crowd estimated at 15,000. A small but hardy group of A. & M. students provided a feature of the afternoon with their intense rooting that almost drowned out the efforts of the Tulane student section. The game ended the pres- ent contract between the Aggies and Tulane and the two teams will not meet next fall. The line-ups: Tulane Pos. Texas A. & M.

SAN TONE SEES CADETS DEFEAT JAVEI,INAS 17-0 Continueing their fast pace the Cadet Eleven went to San Antonio to trouce the Kingsville Texas A. & I. Javelinas by the neat score of 17-0, before 7,000 fans. Before the game was over every man on the Farmer bench played, with sub- stitutes playing most of the second and third quarters. With the A. & M. band on hand for parades, drill and music, the night game took on a festive and happy appearance. Hundreds of A. & M. men from San Antonio and South- west Texas were in the stands to cheer theix• team. Late in the first quarter "Fren- chy" Domingue began gaining gx•ound against the stubborn Jave- lina defense and carried the ball to A. & I. 10 yard line where the ball was lost. Early in the second period a fumble was covered by the Cadets on their opponents 15 yard line. Barfield picked up nine and Domingue went around end for the first tally. The French- man kicked goal. Shortly after he booted a place kick from the 10 yard line for another three points. Score at the half, A. & M. 10- Texas A. & I. 0. The final tally came in the last quarter with Cal- lahan, Thompson, Reid and Couser cooperating in the backfield to carry the ball across after a long drive. The nearest the Javelinas came to pay dirt was in the final quar- ter when they recovered a fumble on the Aggies eleven yard line. They failed to gain a yard, how- ever, and their scoring chance was gone. The passing attack of the Javelinas was spectacular, but the Aggies intercepted one more pass than their opponents were able to complete. Neither Fowler nor Kimbrough, who have been starting halfbacks, played in the game because of injuries. Gregory turned in a nice game at full-back and Spencer again demonstrated that he was the best signal caller on the Farm- er eleven. On the offense the big gun was Domingue, with Reid, Stringfellow, Barfield and others turning in some nice offensive and defensive play. The entire Aggie line again proved its strength, the strong Javelina attack being un- able to make any appreciative ad- vance on running plays. The lineups: Texas Aggies Pos. Texas A. & I.
