Men; For the first time in sev- eral years our football team will meet the T. C. U• Horn- ed Frogs with what looks like an even chance for vic- tory. Next Saturday Ft. Worth should be the mecca of every A. & M• man who can possibly attend this game. Our football team needs our support, just as strongly as it needs the sup- port of the Cadet Corps. I am confident we will not fail them. At the Texas hotel on Fri- day night before the game the Ft. Worth A. Bz M. Club is sponsoring a stag smoker, at which itss evpectPd sev- eral hundred A. & M. men will gather,. Football and other topics of interest to A. & M. men will be the or- der of the informal evening. I hope to 'nave the pleasure of greeting you at that meet- ing. The entire Cadet Corps will be in Ft. Worth for the game. Let's have as many, as loyal, Former Students on hand.

The great 1903 A. & M, team, undefeated and champions of the South, beat Tulane that year; and A. 8 M, teams continu- ned 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. & M. victory on September 30th., 13 to fi, 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 yoars. Y Tnlgnn n11tfIRSfiPfi The scare !ails to indicate the supremacy of the Cadet eleven. A rushing, charging, hard-tackling Maroon line almost stopped the Tulane running attack cold and opened hoes 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. & AI. substitutes in t the 1sne-up. Ted Spencer, the Gilmer Power- House, playing fullback and calling signals, was a big factor in the I Aggie victory, "Muggins" Fowler, with his fine southpaw kicking _ and passing, Domingue, I{imbrough and Couser likewise starred in the backfield. The entire harmer line was outstanding, with "Dinah" Merka and Ulh•ich at tackles look- ing particularly good. Stan Stach, Aggie sophonmre center, gave no- tice that he would become one of the best in theconference. Dlness kept Captain Charlie Cummings out of the game except for a few - - - iSENIORS PICA ~ FT, NORTH FOR OFFICIAL TRI Latest neH•s on rte coed sort is a further continualce of the trial Accnrtling to a recent decision to October 31st. minutes. by the Senior Class of A & M.

In the initial application fo the writ of mandamus to force he College to enroll Bryan girls, a,}y president Walton and Judge Brd E.

The Sen- iors stated that practically the en-I fire Carps 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 each year. Special trains will carry the, Corps to Ft. Worth early on the morning of October 21st. []pon 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.

He was one of the Many A• & M. men who got a big after- noon of pleasure in watching the Aggies trounce Tulane recently. .4ggtes Score Late in the first quarter the Ag- gies started for their first touch- down when Kimbsrough 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 left arm of Fowlet• went into action with a pass to Kimbrough that was good for 20 yards and carried to the Tulane four yat•d 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, 9-0. Tn 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 an 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 side-stepping the Tulane safety. The deadly Farmer aerial attack was once more brought into action, Couser passed to Connelley for five (Continued on Page 3) •M,
