“I ani sincerely sorry that our un-
fortunate mistake is regarded with
such feeling of bitterness. I assure
you that I was not responsible for
the article and have taken every step
possible to rectify all erroneous state-
ments.”
iety. The printers protected their lead
however by matching these St. Ed-
ward’s markers with two field goals
by Eggling and a free toss by Down-
ing. The score at the half stood at
15 to. 11 in favor of Hull.
The second half saw the printers
pull away with two more goals and
free toss before the Tiger crew could
add to their side of the score. Louis
Graves, who annexed St. Edward’s
high point honors for the night, man-
aged to pull the hill-toppers back in-
to the game with a toss from the
outskirts, and Bell added to the Ti-
ger cause by looping in another two
pointer. Two gratis shots contributed
by Rupel and Jackson drew the
Gouze charges further up into the
O’Connell of the Hull forces during
the last 10 minutes of the fracas en-
abled the printers to widen the gap
and the final whistle found them
drawing away with a five point mar-
gin.
The game was marked by rough-
ness throughout, but with surprising-
ly few fouls called on each side. Only
one player, Rupel, was ejected for
too many infractions.
Graves, besides leading the St. Ed’s
scorers, played a nice floor game, and
Bell, shifted from his old post at
guard to a forward position, was one
of the smoothest performers on the
floor. Of the first year men, Rupel
showed to advantage, and Reynolds
exhibited plenty of ability as a guard.
For the city leaguers, Eggeling
stood out but was hard pressed for
honors by O’Connell and Vernon.
O’Connell, although playing only the
last half, managed to run up a total
of six points, only three behind Egge-
I ing’s pace-setting nine counters.
The St. Edward’s University Or-
chestra, under the direction of Mr.
Matthew Gouze, is meeting regular-
ly on Monday and Wednesday nights.
At present the orchestra is engaged
in preparing the musical setting for
the coming Christmas plays. It is
planned to have the orchestra play

To the chairman of the St. Ed-
ward’s athleitc council, Coach Rhome
wrote: “With the profoundest of
apologies I wish to retract the err-
oneous statement that appeared in
the press in reference to St. Ed-
wards’ calling off the ball game with
us due to injuries and a bad season.”
“St. Edward’s did not call off the
game, but graciously consented to
postpone the game, at my request,
until next year. My athletic council
advised me to call it off due to the
fact that the T. C. U. Freshmen were
playing here that particular date and
felt they could not stand the financial
loss that woud incur in the playing
of our game.”
At a meeting on Monday night
December 7, the St. Edward’s Mono-
gram Club formally changed its name
to the E Association.
All of the members of the associa-
tion were present and heard the ad-
dress of the honored guest, Mr. Bill
Pierce, head football coach. In the
course of his remarks Mr. Pierce re-
ferred to the improvment of the
Freshman players and to the coming
spring training.
One of the points of discussion was
the possibility of giving a dance. It
was tenatively decided to have the and
dance somewhere in the later part carols.’
Fr. Johnson, faculty advisei’ of the
Echo suffered a relapse of a former
ailment and is now under observation
at Seton Infirmary. Although suffer-
ing continuously for the past two
years with an ailment that stubborn-
ly refuses to respond to medical
treatment, he has maintained a
cheerful attitude that is deceptive of
his real condition. We, his co-workers
on the staff offer our regrets and
hope that his illness will not prevent
him from enjoying the coming Christ-
mas holidays. — The Echo Staff.

After attending the golden jubilee
celebration for Father Chataignon
in Galveston, Father O’Brien jour-
neyed to Dallas with coach Bill Pierce
to preside at a meeting of the athletic
directors of the Texas Conference,
where plans for the 1937 football
season and the current basketball
season were discussed. Fr. O’Brien
dropped in one of the two point var- I reporter favorably on the meeting,
1 and with the aid of Coach Pierce
an impressive schedule was com-
pleted.
In a letter to the chairman of the
athletic council at St. Edward’s Uni-
versity and a notice to Fort Worth
newspapers, Coach Byron Rhome of
Texas Wesleyan College, rectified a
recent statement given to publication
concerning the cancellation of the
T. W. C.-St. Edward’s football game
which was scheduled to take place on
November 27, in the city of Fort
Worth. The previous publication at-
tributed the cancellation to officials
of St. Edward’s and it was through
a desire to retract the erroneous
statement that Rhome published a
second notice.

Faulty passing and inability to cash

• Monday night in the school gymna-
sium. The Tiger eagers dropped a
rough affair to the Hull Printers, an
Austin municipal quintet and last
year semi-finalists in the T. A. A. F.
state play-off, by the score of 28 to
23.
The printers managed to jump in-
to the lead shortly after the open-
ing whistle when Vernon dropped in
one from the field. Vernon repeated
shortly afterward and Hull crew
gained advantage that they never re-
linquished.
Rupel opened the firing for the Ti-
ger outfit gy looping in a field goal

“I have sent an article to the
press here and to the papers of each
conference town completely assuming
all blame and explaining as clearly
as possible that I called the ball
game off upon advice of my ath-
letic council due to financial reasons,
etc.”
Respectfully yours,
Byron Rhome, athletic director.
Although plans are only tentative,
St. Edwarl’s athletic officials are con-
ferring with the Wesleyan officials
concerning a game for the 1937 sea-
son. Basketball relations have also
been affected with two games sched-
uled for the coming season—one to
be played in Austin and one in Fort
Worth.
“I handed this information to our
school sports writer and told him ex-
actly why the game was called off.
He is young, very imaginative, and
overly ambitious and decided to put
the entire article in our favor. At
the time I reprimanded him for his
false statements, but did not realize
how seriously St. Edward’s would
-take—the article/-4f I had fcnown, I contest but so.m- deadly spoofing by
would have corrected it immediate- 11 ’P J1‘ TT”" J.......
