Baylor Battle
(Continued from Page 1)
Unless Coach Jack Meagher's men
show more ability on the pass defense
than they did against Arkansas last
Saturday, they're not likely to finish
in the 5Q0 per cent column when the
final count is taken this season. Luck-
ily for the Owls, the Razorbacks were
blessed with catchless wonders, who
couldn't be betted on to catch a pass
with a breadbasket, and the lack of a
pass defense did not hurt them as
much as it might have otherwise.
With "the Mighty" Alford, the equal
of any passer in the conference, on
the throwing end and Harris and
Byerly on the receiving end, the Bears
promise to keep the Owls on their
toes throughout the game. And one
little miscue and it's bye-bye ball
game and an upper berth in the cel-
lar to share with Baylor for Rice.
Maybe that's pouring it on a little
too thick, but the point is that the
Owls had better not take too seriously
what they have been reading about
the Bears in the newspapers during
the past several weeks. The team they
will meet out on Rice field tomorrow
is not the same team that lost a 25-0
decision to Texas earlier in the sea-
son.

Jack was an architecture student
working his way through. He hated to
leave Notre Dame. But, when a big-
ger scrap than football, meaning the
world war came along, Jack left Notre
Dame and two years of grid eligibility
and joined the marines.
As a recruit Meagher was trained
at Paris Island and Quantico, Va.
He was in the marines three years,
located in the West Indies.
After the war he worked in Chicago
a while. Then came his first coach-
ing job at St. Edward's university,
Austin.
Meagher first reported for- duty in
the fall of 1922 at St. Edward's. He
was there until March 1, 1929, when
he came to a school whose elevens
had fought his team many times*—Riee
Institute.
In 1922 his team lost one game.
In 1923 and 1924 his teams went
through undefeated seasons.
In 1925 his team had an "oft" year,
on "Electrical Rates", and Marvin Ur-
bantke on "Modern Precise Surveying
Instruments."
and lost about one-half of its games.
In 192(1, 1927, and 1928. St. Edwards
won second place in the Texas con-
| ference, playing an eleven or twelve
gBme representative schedule each
year.
There was one St. Edward's-Baylor
game Jack will never forget. Not be-
cause of any outstanding playing.
After the game in Waco, Meagher
: met a certain young lady, and Hot to
! wondering where she had been all his
!life.
Jack goes home to that young lady
i every day now. She was from Texas
university, and had been. Jack says,
; an uninterested spectator at that Bay-
! lor-St. Edward's game. At least she
| was not pulling for the Bruins.
Today Jack has a big family, with
four boys and one girl. Marillyn i*
8; Bill. 8; Jack, 4; Mike, 2; Dick.' 1.
Jack is enthusiastic for Rice, and
says he's coming here Bill hid*
Meagher, sometimes saying that 1«'>f■
is not so good after all.

because they're fresh
Camels are never parched or toasted!
M^OLKS who smoke really frvsli cigarettes made
from choice sun-ripened tobaccos never have to
give a thought to their throats.
That's because such fresh cigarettes retain natural
moisture —and are gratefully smooth, cool, throat-
friendly, mild.
Camels are the fresh cigarette — everyone knows
that now—they're blended from the finest Turkish
and mild Domestic tobaccos that money and skill
can buy.
We would never dream of parching or toasting
these choice sun-ripened tobaccos —tliat would only
drive off or destrov the natural moisture that makes
Camels fresh in nature's own mild way.
The Camel Humidor Pack protect* a fine rigarette
fresh with natural moisture — it could do little or
nothing to freshen a cigarette that is dried-out or
factory-stale.
If you smoke for pleasure, see for yourself what
freshness means in mildness and flavor —switch to
Camels for just one day—then leave them, if you can!
