PEDAGOG
DR. BOOTH SPEAKS AT GENERAL ASSEMBLYRICE professor will
HEAD C. I. A. AT DENTON
A great wave of enthusiasm swept
the General Assembly last Tuesday
morning and never in the history of
the college did the student body res-
pond more readily to a worthy en-
deavor. The worthy endeavor was
the Pedagog-1925. Up to date the
last count made shows that almost
900 copies of our year book have
f>een sold. There are only sixty
people enrolled in college that have
not signed up for a Pedagog. The
Sub-College subscription percent is
right in behind that of the college.
Last Monday the Pedagog staff re-
ceived a telegram from the Exten-
sion unit at Corpus boosting the Pe-
dagog and pledging 100 percent
among all ex-students. The telegram
was signed by A. D. Harvey, C. A.
Cowan, Mrs. Helen McNaughton, Ila
Graves, and S. W. Henderson. _ This
is the kind of enthusiasm that is ap-
preciated and will help to make our
book the best yet.
The following staff members have
been selected: Lela Stulting, assistant
editor; Janie Ivey, organization edi-
tor; Jipimy Jones', cartoonist and
art editor, and Hodge Pickens, ath-
letic editor. The remainder of the
staff will be selected in the near fu-
ture. A Pedagog honor roll will be
issued next week and young ladies
and men, you want to be sure that
your boarding home is going 100 per-
cent. Those students who bought
1924 Pedagogs and have failed to
come and get them, will please do so
this coming week.
Important! Stop by in the Main
Hall and look at the Pedagog bul-
letin Board; all important announce-
ments will be posted there. All
Freshmen whose names begin with
letters A to J will have their pic-
"tures made this week on appointed
days at either studio. Have your pic-
ture made this week—you from A
through I. .

RABBIT-FOOT DRAMATIC CLUB
HOLDS FIRST MEETING
Officers Elected for Coming Year:
Old Members of Club Pres-
ent at Meeting.
At the first meeting of the Rabbit
Foot Dramatic Club last Thursday
night at 7:30 p. m. officers were
elected and much necessary business
was transacted. Mrs. King, sponsor,
appointed John Coers as president
pro/ tern.
The first matter of business was
reading of the constitution. Several
changes were suggested and the
whole article was discussed by parts
with suggested changes wherever
needed. The main changes came un-
der the following heads: absences
from meetings, old members return-
ing to school, and finance. A com-
mittee was appointed to submit the
revised constitution to the club at the
next meeting.
The officers of the club were elect-
ed as follows: John Coers, president;
Hodge Pickens, vice president; Eddie
McCurry, secretary; Tressie McGee,
treasurer; Edwin Barrow, sergeant-
at-arms; Sallie Ross Jones, Star re-
porter, and Carroll Fraker, Pedagog
editor.
The club then set the tentative for
try-outs for membership in the club
by the prospective members. A large
number have already turned in their
names to Mrs. King and they will be
given parts on a miscellaneous pro-
gram to be given before the club on
Monday night, October 27, at 7 p. m.
All of the old members of the club
that are now in school were present
at the meeting. They are: McCurry.
Sheppard, Pickens, McGee, Kennedy,
Fraker, Shelton, Woodson, Jones.

praised the college for its rapid
growth, and for the plans President
Evans had voiced back in 1912 that
had come to so briliant a peak. The
mam topic of the talk was on one’s
chosen life work. In this he dis-
cussed the life of Jesus as a teacher,
and in discussing the principles of
pedagogy: motive, subject matter and
method, he made many allusions to
the examples of these in the life of
the Saviour. He stated that the mo-
tive m teaching should be, not so
much to make money for a trousseau
or to step to some other profession;
but it _ should be for the betterment
ol society. The subject matter of
Christ s teachings was character
more than knowledge. Rev. Booth
showed the method in which Christ
taught and these topics were stressed :
authority, originality, simplicity and
patience.
At the end of Dr. Booth’s address,
Rev. Raby made several announce-
ments about the Methodist revival
meeting now going on in town and
extended an invitation to all students witnm a few minutes the Quad-
ra all churches to attend these var-1 wangle was well surveyed-and the

there on January 1.
Dr. Blayney has been a member of
the Rice faculty for 12 years. He

sities, including one from Heidelberg,

THIRD PEP RALLY OF THE
WEEK HELD LAST THURSDAY
Freshmen Escorted to Assembly Hall
to Be Lined Up in Pep of
the College.
By far the most spirited rallv
held m the Southwest Texas Teach-
ers College im recent years was held
last Thursday in the General As-
sembly hall of the Main building.
When the meeting was first called to
order there was a lack of what the
leaders thought proper attendance on
the part of first year men. The order
was given out to get recruits, and

The meeting was closed by Presi-

PROF. SMITH IS

Pi of. C. S. Smith, of the Science
department of the college, has been

serious attack of appendicitis last
Thursday night. All the day prev-

on the campus and that night before,

rally. It was plainly seen that thev
had no intentions of shirking in any
manner, the gathering, for all were
^01n wto the proceedings.
Then followed the try-outs for yell
leaders, in which many girls and boys
displayed their talents before th-
future voters. This is the first time
there has ever been a yell leader try-
out and much interest has been dis-
played towards it. It is almost a cer-
tainty that the lucky ones will be
given recognition for their services
at the end of the year.
Many of the lettermen were pres-
ent and this added to the spirit of
the occasion. The yell practice was
carried out exceedingly well and plans
for the use of this practice at the
next Bobcat games are now under
way.
Watch for the next rally, and be
there!
After the short peppy speeches, a
few minutes were given to business,
in which several, applications for
membership were voted upon and the
society voted to restrict the program
to one hour in order that students
attending will not be kept from their
work too long.
On Wednesday, October 15 at 7:15
the first of the series of programs for
the year will be given. Every man
that enjoys good wholesome enter-
tainment should be there. Remember,
Chautauquans, you will miss some-

COLLEGE PHYSICS LAB GETS
^ WORLD SERIES RETURNS
Prof. Vernon is Generous to Ball
Fans; Entertainments Well At-
tended Each Day.
For the convenience of the many
baseball fans that would, perhaps, cut
classes to go to town to hear the
World Series returns, Prof. Vernon
of the college physics department, had
installed in his Lab. room a receiv-
ing set with loud speaker during the
past week. The entertainments were
well attended by faculty members as
well as students, and much interest
was ^displayed towards this added
feature of college life. The Fresh-
men were especially excited at such
wonderful privileges being offered in
connection with an educational insti-
tution.
The editor of the Star wishes to
extend the thanks of the many who
enjoyed the returns in this manner
where they would have otherwise
been left out, as well as for himself,
to Mr. Vernon.
The Bobcats, were somewhat luckv
to prevent a scoreless tie in the sec-
ond game of the season in Commerce
against the Lions Saturday. The en-
tire game was listless from the Cats’
standpoint, and only at rare intervals
did the San Marcos machine show
signs of football. Everyone seemed
content to let things drag until, per-
haps, a break would make things
come easy. But the break never
came However, time after time the
Bobcats came within scoring distance
and attempted field goals; all of
which went wide. Only at one inter-
val in the game and that in the latter
period, did the Lions seriously threa-
ten the Cats’ goal. By a succession
of well performed plays the Lions
advanced the ball to the San Marcos
20 yard line, but on their supposedly
scoring play they failed. Their last
attempt of the day to score came im-
mediately after when thqy tried to
drop-kick. The kicker was smother-
ed by the Bobcat line and the ball
rolled out on the Cats’ 5 yard line.
This was the last smell the Lions
got of the San Marcos goal and they
were on the defense the rest of the
game.
There are no outside conditions
responsible for the Bobcats’ poor
showing. The team contributes it
entirely to the strength of the Lions.
At the beginning of the game Coach
Strahan started these men: Dailey,
end; Gary, end; Newman, tackle;
Kallina, tackle; Brite, guard; Alien-
son, guard; Kinney, center; Cavness,
quarter; Shelton, half; Roberts, half,
and Coers, full. The Bobcats kicked
off to Commerce who made no re-
turn. On the next play the Com-
merce center threw the ball over the
back s head, and the Bobcat line
downed him behind his own goal line
for a safty. This was the only score
of the game and gave the Cats a 2
point margin, which won the game.
There were no high points in the
game and each team put up a strong-
enough defense to prevent the other
from making any substantial gains.
In the first, second and last per-
iods, the Cats threatened the Com-

In a hotly contested game the Lobos
defeated Plucky Saunders’ Gonzales

the first part of the game there came
an exchange of punts in which the
local high players gained an advant-
age enough to try for field goal.
Brannum was called back and placed
kicked the goal for three points.
The Lobos kicked off and held
Gonzales for downs. Immediately
San Marcos began a march down the
field that resulted in a touchdown.
Depu carried the ball over.
In the second quarter the Lobos got
the ball on their 35 yard line and
carried it straight down the field on
consecutive gains for the second
touchdown. Dixon carried the ball
across for the final counter of the
game.
Dixon, Johnson and Vert were con-
sistent ground gainers for the Lobos,
while the whole Lobo line worked
like a machine on the defense. Gon-
zales made only one first down dur-
ing the entire game and this came
on a pass over the heads of the line.
In the last half penalties held the
Lobos from scoring. The line seemed
oyer anxious to charge and drew
nine penalties for being off-side.
Next Saturday the Lobos will go
to San Antonio to play the strong

San Marcos was the superior team
and when the notion seemed to
strike the team at one time gain
after gain was made. Much improve-
ment was made in the passing game
and many were completed for long
gains. This and end runs proved our
best plays. Our line lacked the drive
to open up holes consistently and the
backs did not do much better. In
flashes the team would revive and ea-
sily overshadowed the Lions at these
times.
Only once did the Lions threaten
the San Marcos goal and that came
in the last period. By some very

took time out to talk things over,
and when the play was resumed
Commerce found a rock-wall line
through which they could not gain
an inch, confronting them. They
tried a long end run in which five
Cats hit the Commerce back at one
time. Their next play was to try
for field goal. T^e Bobcats sent the
left half and full up into the line,
and about eight men. were' there to
block _ the kick which went so wide
that it went out of bounds on the
5 yard line. From here Garv kicked
to mid-field. The Lion safetv' tried to
return and m the play he was knock-
ed out, Dailey’s knee was wrenched
and Gary was slightly hurt. Com-
merce seemed to be in a great hurry
to score at this point in the game
and resorted to forward passes. On
the third one tried, Shelton inter-
cepted and from then on the Cats
were on the offense.

DEBATING CLUB OR-
GANIZES FOR THE YEAR
A strong and peppy debating club
is assured for the coming year. At
a called meeting last Saturday at
assembly period the members of last
summer’s club met and perfected or-
ganization and plans for this year.
The Debating Club organized dur-
ing the past summer session, was the
first club of its kind for the college.
The old members of that club who
are in school, form the nucleus for
what promises to become one of the
largest and influential clubs on tt
Hill. The purpose of the debating
club is primarily to prepare young
men for the inter-collegiate debating
team try-outs. In the past our de-
bating teams have not been as strong
as they might have been had there
been more trained material for the
try-outs. The demating coaches, Mr.
Arnold and Mrs. King are expecting
tbe new club to supply this need.
All men interested in debating are
invited to join the club. Every mem-
ber will receive plenty of practical
experience in debating. The officers
of the club are J. D. Nelson, presi-
dent: Fred Hanger, vice president,
and Tillie LaBonne, secretary.

shall not be a member of the college
football, basketball, track, baseball,
or debating _ teams. Neither shall he

oi the Star or Pedagog, nor shall he
receive a salary from the college.
Thus, we have a great many stu-
dents barred from becoming members
ot this important council. However
there remains on the eligible list sev-
eral students, who, because of their
knowledge of student life and other
i?lrs’ are caPatde of serving the
college as a member of this council,
it is the duty of each and every class
to find these students and place them
on the council. It will be to their
benefit, because through the students
elected, they may hope to receive
justice and representation. So stu-
dents, think the candidates over and
elect the members that are efficient
and a true representation of the
classes. This is only your duty.
