Debt Free Charter
At the next Howard Payne board of
trustees meeting committees will be
apointed to write a debt free charter
for Howard Payne. As a service to
Christian education Howard Payne
will attempt a. solution to the prob-
lem of preventing the creating of
both bonded and floating indebted-
ness. "Attention is called to the fact that
no charge is made against the cur
rent revenues or donation accounts of
Howard Payne of interest and annui-
ties. Neither has the institution bor
rowed money from the Hardin trust
for the retirement of obligations. The
college's portion of the trust will in-

which closed last week at San An-
tonio that Howard Payne had quali-
fied to participate In the fund.
Bonded Debt Retired
Not only will the college participate
in the trust fund but In order to be
eligible to participate it was required
that the so-called St. Louis bonded
debt of $88000 be retired. This has
been done according to the announce-
ment the bonds having been secured
or the money put up to take care of a
few bonds that have not yet been
presented.
"In raising the money to pay off the
indebtedness a contribution of $26000
and an annuity gift of $15000 was
received from a "great Baptist lay
man of Texas" who college officials
said preferred not to be named. To
these gifts were added smaller ones
by teachers trustees alumni and the
Texas Baptist friends to bring the
total cash contributions in a period of
thirty days to the sum of $66465. A
compromise settlement was effected
by I. E. Harwell nephew and busi-
ness manager of Mr. Hardin and a
committee of Brownwood citizens that
has not only effected the retirement
of the major St. Louis debt but will
soon complete a settlement of indebt-
edness against the subsidiary campus
acquired from the Brownwood public
school. These compromise settlements
have been made by outside friends
and not by committees representing
in any official capacity the institu-
tion itself. The so-called Galveston
left against the institution is $750
annually on an annuity gift of $15-
000. Howard Payne Is in a preferred
position from the standpoint of its
operating account the best perhaps
of any of the Baptist institutions"
college officials pointed out.
Great Philanthropists
"Mr. and Mrs. Hardin are the great-
est phllanthiopists in the history of
Texas Baptists. Their gifts have been
made under the most liberal condi-
tions as compared to the gifts of
other philanthropists and they are to
be commended for the wise and wide
distribution of their gifts. They .have
underwritten for a century an evan
gelical denomination. Through their
generosity ministers will preach mis
sionaries will 'seek the lost teachers
will present great life lessons and
maybe governors and presidents from
simple Christian homes will preside
over the destinies of states and na-
tions. Added to the present endow-
ment of Howard Payne the participa-
tion of the college in the Hardin
Trust will make it possible for the
institution to join the Southern Asso-
ciation of Colleges and Secondary
Schools" college officials continued.
The bright pupil looked long and
thoughtfully at the second examina-
tion question which read: "State the
number of tons of coal shipped out of
the United States in any given year."
Then his brow cleared and he wrote:
"1492 none."
Jackets Count
With Passes In
2nd 3rd Periods
Unleaslng a fast and furious pass-
ing attack the Howard Payne Yellow
Jackets were able to shatter the St.
Edwards' Tigers hopes to repeat as
conference champions for this season
and cinched themselves nothing less
than a tie for the coveted title when
they took the Tigers into camp with
a 19-6 count. The Tigers played a
stubborn defensive game but were
unable to get their supposedly strong
offense to clicking through the Jack-
ets strong line or around their ends.
The first quarter was about equally
contested with both teams playing for
the breaks. However the second Stan-
za was packed full of action and
thrills. Archer took cne of Bresha-
nan's punts on his own thirty-five
yard line and returned it five yards
to the forty. Sunderman who had
gone into the game for Nunnally in
the first quarter made five at right
tackle and Wedeman picked up four
more on an end-around. Harlow
plunged over the middle on the next
down for two and a first down on his
own forty-three yard line. Taylor fail-
ed to gain on an attempt at the line
and on the next play Sunderman fad-
ed back and passed to Wedeman who
ran the remaining twenty-five yards
for the score. Wedeman was tackled
by one of the irate Tigers after he
was seven yards behind the goal line
and injured but was able to. remain
in the game. Hallow had no chance
to convert the extra point as Archer
who was to hold the ball fumbled it
momentarily and was swarmed by
the entire St. Edwards' line.
Play had not been resumed long af-
ter this Jacket score when resnahan
went off right tackle on a spin play
cut back to the left and behind beau-
tiful interfeience sped sixty-one yds.
for the one Tiger score of the night.
The attempt to kick goal was foiled
when Jones broke through and block-
ed the kick.
For the rest of the half the two
teams battled at about even terms In
the center of the field and the first
half came to a close in a 6-6 dead-
lock. The third quarter was the part of
the game In which the Jackets proved
themselves to be the Tigers' superi-
ors. This stanza was no more than
well underway when the Jackets be-
gan their deadly passing attack upon
the Austin boys.
The Jackets took possession of the
ball on the Tigers' forty-nine yard
marker after Bresnahan had punted
out at that point. Taylor picked up
two at the left side of the line and
on the next play Sunderman passed
to Archer for 18 yards and a first
down on the St. Edwards' thirty-two
yard line. On the next play Sunder-
man again attempted to pass but was
thrown for a six yard loss when the
line failed to hold. However the next
toss was good for thirty-eight yards
and a touchdown when Archer gath-
ered it in and loped about ten yards
for the score. Harlow kicked goal.
Soon after this second touchdown
Taylor again passed to Archer to put
the ball on the Tigers' one yard line
and on the next play the Jackets'
captain plunged through the right
side of the line for the third and last
score. Harlow failed to kick goal
The fourth quarter was just about
like the first with the Jackets merely
