THE Jackets and the Pirates
tie up in tlie first iaine of
the Texas Conference season
here Friday. It will be the only
Big Five game of the week. The
Pirates have failed to win a
game but they cannot la- slight-
ed. I
It will take everything How-
ard Payne has to win Coach
Amis has declared. Cheaney scouted
the .Slmiiions-.Soutliwf.tfrn game and
he says the samp.
Howard I'unr liaslfe had n li.id
reason so far. Tliey have won Ivmi
tied one ami lost one. The game
Friday will delermlne whether they
h.ivr.a chance at the Dig Five title.
H they win. the light will probably
he helween Simmons and Howard
Payne. Austin after their signal de-
feat at the hands of Daniel linker
to not look like much. Altho the
inuy snap out of It.
Trinity has done Utile s far.
Southwestern has failed to win a
single game altho two of the three
lost were with Southwestern Confer-
ence teams. Simmons has won eer
game.
TUT. Star Telegram has the fol-
lowing to s.iy uhout the practice
of sroutingi
Suggestion that scouting of cncni)
footlljll teams he aholished is a
splendid Idea hut one that seems
toarcely practical.
True coaches can refrain fr"in
sending assistant roaches or pla.vcrs
to hCoiit the enemy hut who nil)
check the alumni?
The old grnds will voluntarily watch
I opposition pla)s and unasked tip
olf the coach or players of their old
schools.
John V. Heisman coach of Itlcr
outstanding figure in the football
world for )fars has come nut against
routing. Vale and Princeton recent-
ly announced u gentlemen's agreement
not to scout each other this season.
Aholitiou of scouts will call into
play more trick plays more treak
formations. II olso will gle phi)t-rs
greater opportunity to show their re-
sourcefulness and ability to diagnose
plays.
Scouts in other days sneaked into
the stands wearing lilue goggles and
false whiskers. Hut now recognlxed
us n legitimate part of the foothall
system they make no efforts to con-
ceal their presence at enetn gajnes.
Ilrazelily sit in the stands and oft-
times make notes on difficult pla.vs.
WE douht If the practice of scout-
ing can ever he discarded. It has
Its evils and also Its advantages. No
stigma Is attached to it at least.
THT. Jackets soved little stuff
against San Marcos. Murrali flash-
ed out in this game showing excellent
promise. Krporls from the game
speak of his "sensational 811 - anl
runs."
There qre many Individual stars on
the Howard 1'a.wie eleven. Hut we
will never heliee that Individuals
fturriup is as good as team work
EI.KVF.N good men playing togeth-
er ever) down Is lietter than the
'ante number of Hed (! ranges st met-
ing their stuff.
Wr do not want to he misunder-
stood in this. We don't mean that a
man should not pi i his best at all
times. We simpl) mean that team
ork rvery man co-operating will
get hetler results.
Howard I'ayne has alwu.vs heen
known as this kind of a team. So
far the hnv-e showed little team work
in the games we hate sten. As to the
others we can only judge from the re-
San Marcos should not lie under-port-.
valued. All the blame is not due to
the Jackets. The Tlohcats lime a
good team hard hitting and fast.
'Iheir ulr raids were Instrumental to
a great extent in getting the large
fcore they did.
11 K understand that McAtee vas
" overheard In the Hani remarking
to u friend that "as soon as foothall
season is orr ou and I and one
or two of the other SOC'IKTV HOYS
will Kur I on Vra."
THE Scrubs were defeated by
Stephenvllle because 1 1 ley had lit-
tle material to work with. All honor to
Fred Hell .luck Ileitis anil "Cotton"
the midget men who plaed in the
game.
They played a great game if it was
lost It is a black mark on the school
that many of the wide shouldered
huskies who loat around the corners
are not out for foothall. "Dad" has
Miunded a call for more men.
CJIMMONS plays Tech at Abilene
J this week. Iloth teams won their
Hashes last week. Tech defeated St.
Mil wards. Simmons has also defeated
the Cuthollr eleven. The result will
lie Interesting to Jackets fans as
both teams are ct to he met In
Howard Payne.
Trinity plays their fourth straigh
Southwestern Conference game Ibis
week when they meet Ha lor. The
jackets also meet both these teams
III the future. Trinity hasn't shown
much so fur. but they line been plus
lug- greatly superior teams. If their
men ure not all crippled they should
come Out of the four battles with
it great deal of wisdom gained.
Austin College meets T. C. I' this
week. They urr doped to be badlv
hratrn by the Fort Worth team as
they rr defeated by Daniel Haker
who held 1. 1. I to a close score
XTKXT week the Yellow Jackets
A' to Waco vyhcrc they clash with
the Baylor Hears. Preparations arc
being made to run a special train to
the game.
A train was run last year with
great success. Ibis year olMl stu
