Basketball Task
Basketball intramurals for girls
were resumed Monday after a
week's "holiday" for exams. Ill
order that new students and those
.unah),o 10 make practices before
mid-term may participate, two-
thirds of all practices including
make-ups will be held this semes-
ter.
The influence of a-junior team on
the strength and membership of
otlier teams is marked. A large
per cent of players in both literary
societies are juniors. Their posi-
tions will have to be filled by seni-
ors, for the most part, or from
ether classes which are trying to
form teams. The result is more
than ever unpredictable in the old
SMK-<Koro feud.
Iea:n captains elected thus far
are: Dorothy Graner, Korosophi-
an; Dorothy Vinsan, Susan M. Key;
Katherine Willis, sophomore; Mary
Ilclen Vyster, freshman; Elaine
Chambers, Tau Gamma Chi;
Frankie Gresham, dormitory. The
junior captain has not been an-
nounced.
Popularity of a bowling party-
given by WAA at its January
meeting has started talk of a bowl-
ing group to function under the
auspices of WAA. The proposal
groups would bowl at least once
each week with points for v. WAA
\membership being,, given.for a cer-
tain standard of participation. "
•And while we're mentioning ag-
ility i, basketball, don't ever for-
get the sharpshooting tactics of
little Betty Ruth Sears* Frankie
Gresham, and the way Alice Mar-
shall, who claims to be a guard,
can sink those points. Just mod-
esty, we'd say.

Raryte Whip
Indians By
26 Points
The Rams were hot!
They couldn't miss from any
angle and consequently whipped
the McMurry Indians 58-32 Satur-
day night in Abilene in a Texas
conference basketball game.
Scoring almost as fasf as they
could move thtf^ball from one end
of the court J.o the other, the Rams
rolled a 16-1 margin then coasted
to their 26-p'oint margin of victory.
Weyman Gotton and E; F. Par-
ham set that fast early pace which
had the Indians scalped from the
start.
Half-time score favored the TWC
live 37-13. It was the Rams' thir-
ty-second consecutive Texas Con-
ference victory and left them firm-
ly established as the favorite to
cop a third straight c .amplonship.
Howard Payne, thought' to be a
superior of the Rams, beat the In-
dians by only five points earlier in
I the week. <D
I The victory brought the Rams'
jtotal for the current conference
1 season to three.
With gaining Porter Willis find-
ing his stride, the Indians rallied
for a time early in the second half.
Willis, held to a pah" of free shots
before the intermission, came back
to Grille „his total for the night to
13. Cotton "was top scorer with 17
points while Parham got 12.

The problem currently confront-1

day all clocksi will be set back one
hour.
It will be decided by next Mop-
day whether students will continue
tj» meet classestfct the regular times
or will have to adjust to a new
schedule. School time may be
moved up an hour, making the
first period class begin at 7 o'clock.
Another possible arrangement, the
one to be used^by the public schools
of the city, requires l\ change of
thirty minutes as soon as the Day-
light Savings plan goes into effect,
and a second thirty-minute switch
after about a month, when tlie sun
will be rising earlier.0
The final decision depends upon
