WELL the last semester is drawing
to a close. In less than two months
students will be wending' their ways
home, Some will go home ryjoichig—
some otherwise.
IT is largely an individual matter
as to whether a student will welcome
the close of school, in the light of
his achievements. Now is'the time to
make the most of your time for soon
it will be too late.
THERE'S stilly .great bit of scandal
of various .descriptions being brought
up in many places and why—we. don't
know. It seems like it is'an inevitable
circumstance that is a part of society
everywhere you go.
SOME students never stop to think
and consider just what might happen
to a person if he fails to observe rules
and regulations, especially ones that
are specific, in the form that they de-
served to be observed. Yet it would
pay everyone to know just what he is
doing at all times and not get in the
habit of taking too many things at
less than, face value.
LOSE AND WIN
IN SERIES WITH
"HILLBILLIES
THE old baseball season has been
"ushered in in a rather pleasing man-
ner. The Plowboys have demonstrat-
ed that they have a real team in the
making. The very fact that they have
split each series with T. I. A. A,
teams supposedly the strongest in
that conference. \
DURING the latter part of March
Texas will be host to a number of the
world's greatest- athletes. Joi'e Ray,
* Scholz,—and many others will be in
Texas U, and Rice track meets and
relay canrivals.
WHICH reminds us that we have
some promising track and field men
working out every day and they look
"like they are going to make somebody
hustle at Baylor U. during the Junior
College meet.
MISS HANNA ENTERTAINS
IN HONOR OP HER SISTERS
,Miss Mabeth Hanna, college nurse,
entertained a few of her friends at
the college hospital last Saturday
night in honor of her two. sisters, who
were spending the week-end with her.
These young ladies, Edith and Fran-
ces, are attending Baylor University
at present.
Progressive forty-two was the game
of the evening. About ten o'clock de-
licious refreshments consisting of
sandwiches, fruit salad, olives, pickles,
cake and/ice tea were served to the
guests.
Everyone present had a great time
-and—they were reluctant to leave be-
fore the lights winked.
The .Daniel Baker Hill Billies suc-
ceeded in .taking the first game of a
two-game series from the Plowb'oys
on Monday afternoon by a score of 5
to 4, although the Aggie outhit the
Hill Billies two to one and "Lefty"
Browning struck out fifteen Hill Billy
batters.
Errors proved responsible for the
logs of the game and had not these
proved costly, Browning should have
turned in a deserved win, for he pitch-
ed an exceptional brand of ball.
Cantrell," Brownwood Hi star, op-
posed Browning and he pitched a good
game. His control'was perfect and he
worked his change of pace very ef-
fectively.
Baker, haiad-hitting Plowboy left
fielder, led both, clubs in batting with
a triple and two doubles.
Batteries—Tarleton: Browning and
Abbott; Daniel Baker: . Cantrell and
Love, Umpire, Yeager.
'. _ f
Second Game
The Plowboys turned the tables on
the Hill Billies and defeated the
Brownwood aggregation by a score of
6 to 3 in the last game Tuesday after-
noon.
Again the Plowboys outhit their op-
ponents, getting twelve hits to the
Hill Billies' four.
The dimunitive Turney pitched an
unbeatable brand of ball and- the
Presbyterians were unable to connect
with his fast ones. He struck out an
even dozen batters.
The Hill Billies used two pitchers
but neither proved effective. Several
errors were made on both teams but
none were very costly.
Batteries—Tarleton: Turney and
Abbott; Doniel Baker: Bellomy, Alex-
ander and Lane.
THREE TARLETON STU-
DENTS IN CAR ACCIDENT

PROSPECTS LOOK-
ING BETTER FOR
BASEBALL TEAM
As a result of the six games with
Howard Payne and Daniel Baker, the
Plowboys have demonstrated that
they are of real championship calibre,
and if they succeed! in maintaining a
gpod hitting stride should sail into the
championship finals in baseball.
These preliminary games were ar-
ranged to prepare the Plowboys^for
conference work and the lessons learn-
ed in these games will help .vary ma-
terially in winning out in the district'.

PLOWBOYS SPLIT
WITH JACKETS
' IN OPENING TILT
The Plowboys journeyed to Brown-
wood to open the baseball season with
the Howard Payne Yellowjackets last
Wednesday and Thursday week.
The little Aggies succeeded in beat-
ing out the Yellowjacket Aggregation
in the first game by a score of 5 to 4.
The game-was a thriller from start to
finish and lasted for ten innings.
"Jack" Johnson put- the game away
with a homer in the tenth.
Lefty Browning pitched the fray
and hurled a great game. Foster Cook,
star Yellowjacket' twirler opposed him
and pitched a gr«?at game.
Batteries—Tarleton,: Browning and
Abbott; Howard Payne: Cook and Mc-
Afee.
Second Game
■ In the' second game on Thursday
afternoon the Plowboys' lost a four
run lead when the Yellowjackets aid-
ed by many errors pounded in eleven
runs in the fourth inning. The game
was slow and the heavy hitting of the t
Yellowjackets was the main feature,'
The Plowboys were unable to hit Mar- -
tin, Yellowjacket i rookie pitcher, and
hence failed to produce needed runs.
The final score was 17 to 4 in favor
of the Yellowjackets.
Batteries—Tarleton: Turney, Hen-
son and Abbott; Howard Payne, Mar-
tin and McAtee.

DUMP DARLINGS WIN OVER
CITY SISTERS IN FAST CAGE,
GAME ON MONDAY NIGHT
In a fast, well-played game, the
Dump Darlings' basketball squad
romped away with the big end of a
25-11 score on the college court last
Monday night. This was the second
game of the series between these
■hard fighting aggregations—the Mary
Corn-Wilkerson defenders having lost
the first game by the narrow margin
of two points. Some real basketball
ability was shown by members of each
team and we regret very much that
the Tarleton co-eds' have not. been
allowed to "strut their stuff" for the
past two_ seasons. in_Junior College
athletics.
YELLOWJACKETS
BEAT PLOWBOYS
IN THIRD GAME
The Plowboys lost a ■ nine inning
battle to the Howard Payne Yellow-
jackets Thursday afternoon by a score
of 4 to 3. The game was fast and
furious with Henson of the Plowboys
and Coqk of the Yellowjackets cjutting
down opposing, batters in one, two,
three fashion.
In a thrilling ninth inning rally the
Plowboys filled the bases and threat-
ened to put over the winning runs,
but the. Yellowjacket defense tighten-
ed and pulled a double play, as a re-
sult of a bonehead play on third by
Harhison, which retired the side and
Cinched the game.
The Plowboys were unable to hit
Foster Cook, Yellowjacket pitcher,
gathering only four hits while the
Yellowjackets were getting seven.
There were costly errors on both
sdes but the game was one of the best
seen on Hays Feld. The same teams
played Friday afternoon and the
Plowboys ^ were doped to win and
break even in the series.
Batteries—Tarleton: Henson and
.Abbott;- Howard-Payne:- "Cook and
McAtee.
