Did you know that in 1926. the
John Tarleton . Plowboys were un-
defeated throughout -a.,;whole ■ sea-
son of hard 'games ? The only team
that played Coach Wisdom's men
on even -terms were the powerful
Baylor Cubs who battled them to.
a 7-7 tie. , ' '
Numbered among, their victims
were the McMiirray Indians,
Weatherford, Grubbs, and Burle-
son College, They won the state
championship from the latter team
by a'great uphill rally in the last;
half that scored 14 points to win
the game, 14-12. ,
Gym 'Boys-
,. "Al" Jennings was captain of1 the
team that year.' Grubbs was de-
feated 44-0. '

The- Frogs have an excellent
chance to win the Southwestern
Conference championship! this year.
Watch Grubbs (Howard). 1)hey
also have Lei and and Brumbelow,
[They play Texas next week.
Randolph and Weatherford bat-
tled to a scoreless tie on a muddy
field Jast Ftiday. The, Badgers out-
played their opponets. 1 ,'
Decatur Baptist beat Clifton 18
0 on Friday, We do not play either
team this yeai- although we playecj
both last year.
Beat Randolph.
Sammy Says: ' ,
T. Ci U. tp b'eat Texas because
of a superior offense headed by
Howard Grubbs.
; How those Plowboys did plow on
Monday against the. Tigers of
Gainesville! They made 17 first
downs to their opponents, two and
outg'aiped them by a "wide margin.
Rudder played a wonderful game
at fullback -last Monday. He ram-
med and ripped and tore that Ti-
ger line until it looked like a
weak, weak kitten. He will give
Wichita Falls and Randolph two
torrid afternoons. •,
That whole Plowboy line charged
furiously, throughout the whole
afternoon. They pushed the Gain-
esville forwards all over Hays
Field:, They, deserve a lot of credit
for ; our brilliant 13-0 victory. 1
•On ye-Haljemen!! On Ye Tarle-
ton! Win ^at state championship.

Pan seems to be trying to break
into society. We know of several,
bridge'parties he. attended this
week, i
Honk seems to have quite a pulh
This is: only, four years for him,
and he is already a second lieuten-
ant.
Our baby-faced Rudder donates
the following paragraph:
"Monday I had a date with my
Maxine. . Tuesday I had another
date with her. Wednesday same as
Monday. Thursday same, as Tues-
day. .'Friday—-ditto. Saturday, I
changed my routine, had another
date with Maxine Sunday—? This
is about all I have to say except
please don't call me baby-face,: I
know I am a good looking gentle-
man, but I don't thing I am a'bit
ba'by-faced." ' '
It- was rumorfed that Honk has
a social engagement last Sunday
morning that he did not fill.
Lefty got the news last Tuesday
that he was to be a shave, tail.
Excitement ran, high -in'the gym
for several hours after the an-
nouncement. There were a few licks
passed around. Lefty immediately
made arrangements for the but-
tons, and leather. There seemed to
be, some mistake , for ^.that long
wished for announcement did not
appear. We are afraid all-of his
suction has been in vain;
All that were present Saturday
night, received a real treat. Hoss-
fly tuned up his vocal chords and
rendered several beautiful num-
bers, Any one that did not know
him 1 would have thought it, was
Caruso. Among the numbers was
the popular ditty "When the Roll
is Called iip Yonder, I'll be Tliere."
Maybe you don't know we have
a Jimmie Rodgers in the gymna-
sium. Our own dear Nabe is his
latest competition. If any of you
happen to come to the gym some
night and hear strange weird rioiseS
d^ri't call the fire department, .be-
cause it's only Nabe and his banjo.
