FIRST PEP MEETING OF
BAKER ELECTED
HEAD YELL
LEADER
PARKER FAILS TO
RETURN
Greenlee and Ward
Assistants
Brooks Baker junior In the college
and two years experienced man as
yell leader was elected head yell lead-
er over J. Elton Greenlee senior Mon-
day morning after Frank McCreary
had been eliminated Friday in the
preliminary race.
It was necessary to elect a head
yell leader this late in the season be-
cause of the fact that Melvin Parker
who was elected to the position last
spring was unable to return to school
this year and his resignation was not
received until Thursday. Parker has
a job in his home town Goose Creek
and did not feel that he should give
It up to come back to school as he is
able to continue with his education at
night at Robert E. Lee Junior College.
Baker has been in school for the
past two years and has been one of
the yell leaders since his entrance in
1933. He was selected to serve as
Freshman leader under Marcus Mur-
phy and last year was assistant to
Loyd Blalock. His experience and
other qualifications need not be men-
tioned here further as all of the stu-
dents know them.
Brooks has selected as his assist-
ants J. Elton Greenlee and Freshman
Reuben Ward. Greenlee broke into
the yelling game last year when he
fi too was an assistant to Blalock. Ward
Js Is serving his first year in college and
r.j. Is due to become one of the best lead-
fflf ers that has represented the freshman
S3 class since '33 when Baker began his
career.
The first pep meeting was held
Tuesday night. One of the largest
crowds that has ever attended the
opening rally was present and it
seemed as though more spirit and
noise was shown than has been seen
around the old institution in many
' moons.
i "$ Professor O. E. Winebrenner dean
j3 of students made the opening pep
' speech of the year. He urged all of
J'i the students to do all in their power
!y to co-operate with the new head and
j fjjf assistant leaders so that the greatest
33 results possible may be obtained. He
Illustrated his idea of co-operation by
stating that the student body had
signed a contract with Baker when
they voted for him as head man and
that both parties should do their best
to live up to the contract.
Mr. Keaton then made his speaking
. debute for the year by stating that
? i 1 1 ll tkta
me mum imu auuwu muru spun imo
year than he had ever seen manifest'
'S ed In the team so early in the season
1 during his sojourn here and that he
waa very well pleased with them. He
continued by stating that the success
of the team depended largely on the
spirit shown by the student body and
that they were expecting the backing
of all of the students and faculty dur-
ing the fast approaching season.
Glrvlce Archer captain of the Jack-
ets was then introduced to the assem-
bly. The captain and quarter stated
that the team was working hard In
preparation for the tough schedule
with which they were confronted and
that they were going to Fort Worth
tomorrow with the purpose of hand-
ing the famed Frogs their first lick-
ing of the season.
Baker urges that all of the stu-
dents take the pep rallies seriously
and that all of the students co-operate
in showing the Jackets that they are
backing them to the limit. He also
urges that all freshmen who have not
yet purchased their caps do so imrae
diately so that the work can be con
tinued as successfully as It has begun.

GET THE SPIRIT!

urges that all those interested in de-
bate oratory extempore speaking or
any other fonn of public speaking le-

The subject for this yeai's debate

4. Resolved Federal police power

In History of School
Enrollment in Howard Payne has
reached way beyond the half a cen-
tury mark. According to Miss Lena
Vinson college secretary the total
enrollment to date is six bundled
with a few more expected to enioll
within the next few days. This ex
ceeds last yeais eniollment by one
hundred and fifty.
The reason for this large enroll-
ment is largely attributed to the bud-
get plan inaugurated in Howard
Payne. The idea of this plan is to
piove that small denominational col-
leges can send students through col-
lege as cheap as the large State
schools. Officials of the college point
out that if students fiom other col-
leges present a budget showing what
they can attend another college for
Howard Payne will make arrange-
ments to send them here for the same
amount. The large number of trans
fers this year proves this to be a fact.
The faculty and officials of the col-
lege are very well pleased with the
Increase in enrollment and believe
that it will continue.

NEW LEADER
Saturday afternoon at three o'clock
the T. C. U. Frogs and the Howard
Payne Yellow Jackets will meet at
T. C. U. Stadium for the initial tilt of
the season for both teams. The pre-
gnme dope has the Frogs doped to
down the Yellow Jackets by four
touchdowns.
I T. C. U. finished fourth in the
Southwest Conference race last sea
son and has a veteran team to place
on the field this year headed by the
All-Ameiican Dariell Lester at cen-
tei. At ends the Fiogs will have the
All-Conference Walter Roach and
Wille Walls. Tiny Godwin and Wilson
Giostclose veteran tackles are slat-
ed to stai t at the tackle positions.
Two moie veteran linemen will prob-
ably stait the game at guards Tracy
Kellow and Solon Holt with Lester
at center. The starting backficld will
likely be Sammy Baugh the confer-
ence's foremost passer at the quar-
teiback slot and Dutch Kline and
Capt. Jimmy Lawrence at the half
back positions with Taldon Manton
the boy with the educated toe at full-
back. Manton's twenty yard field
goal from placement in the closing
minutes of play enabled the Frogs to
defeat the powerful Santa Clara team
irom California last season.
T. C. U. has been pointing to the
Howaid Payne game since the begin-
ning of the training period and they

Kay O'Btien will be at center. In the
backficld will be Capt. Archer at the
signal calling hole with Nunnally
Sunder man or Thomas at halves. Bob
