THE COLLEGE STAR
GOLDEN GATE GIRLS AT THE PALACE THEATRE
ST. EDS DEFEAT BOBCATS 16-15
\;
The Golden Gate Girls, a clever and very talented sextette of young ladies, will be the special added feature at-
traction at the Palace Theater next week. All of the girls are versatile to say the least, as they play various kinds
of musical instruments, do dance numbers, sing and do some very artistic acrobatic numbers which will excel any-
thing of this nature.
1927 PEDAGOG STAFF SELECTED
(Continued from page One)
manager, of San Benito, is a sopho-
more. John was an excellent busi-
ness manager from the high school
department of last year, which partly
accounts for his ability to fill this
position.
Orville (Mule) Brown, advertising
manager, of San Benito, is a junior.- S.M.H.S. star who couldn’t be stopp-
Mr. Brown has a very taking person
ality—in fact, he is taking lots of
money from the merchants of . this
city and nearby towns for adver-
tising.
Jack Deviney is a very able as-
sistant to the advertising manager and
is a junior from Martindale, and is
proving to be a very valuable mem-
ber to the staff.
Frances Smith, administration edi-
tor, of San Marcos, is a senior. She
is well qualified for this position arid
will fill it in such a way as to pro-
duce a very interesting section.
We are indeed fortunate in having
such talented artists in our school
who are willing and glad to work on
our staff. We have Eva Hogeland of
Beaumont, a senior, who displayed her
ability in an artistic manner in last
year’s annual and we are glad' to have
her back again this year. Sam Munn
from Bertram, is a sophomore. He is
working on some very attractive sub-
divisional pages. James Baker, car-
toonist, of Corsicana, is a sophomore
and is- turning out some of the clev-
erest cartoons the Pedagog has ever
had.
• The Pedagog staff considers itself
extremely lucky in its literary editor,
Katherine Wall, a sophomore, from
Port Arthur. She has had a great
deal of experience in high school an-
nuals. Besides this, she is one of the
foremost English students on the
“Hill”, and her poetry is becoming
well known throughout Texas.
Aileen Hamlett, organization edi-
tor, of San Marcos, is a senior. She
proved her ability in this section last
year and we are glad to have her
back again this year.
Jack Walker, athletic editor, of
Saskatchewan, Canada, is a junior.
Jack’s thorough knowledge of sports
will make him an extremely capable
sport editor.
Last, but not least, come' the two
grind editors, Mr. Benjamin L. Brite,
of Verdi, and Mr. Bradford Gates, of
Edinburg. The former is a senior, the
latter a freshman, but only a profes-
sor can tell the difference. Knowing
Ben and Brad the way we do, we know
what great things to' expect from
them for this section.
From the High School department
we have Malitia Gunn, editor,'of San
Marcos, and Bruce Gregg, business
manager, of Staples. They both are
leading seniors in the Training School
and are doing their part to make
their section a success.
BIG TRACK SEASON AHEAD

Fulton, Missouri. You could always
depend on old “Dang” last year to
bring back his first place in the shot
arid discus; with now and then one in
the javelin. He has a powerful arm
‘with lots of bodily strength and am-
bition to back it. Ward Morton, the
ed with a red lantern within the dis-
tance of. a mile. Before the close of
last season he had been given the
middle name of “Consistency”, which
he •; devoutly lived up to the entire
year. He now holds the record in the
TIAA mile run and is a good sprinter
if needed.' Ben “Verdi” Brite, who
is now taking his last year in track
in this institution has been an asset
to the team. He is not so consistent
in any event but tries them all for
luck. ’ His middle name should be
luck. Out at the TIAA meet he man-
aged to be thigh-point mail. Frank
Vance, the “Devine” hurdler, is tak-
ing his last year in track, and can al-
ways be depended upon for, several
points. This promises to be his best
Quadrangle Gossip
College Heights seems to be equally
divided between pro and cons as to the
18th amendment. All available mater-
ial on the^question in the library has'
been analyzed by debating hopefuls
who made their debute last evening.
Dr. Gosser, an instructor in the
college, has gone and done it—he has
taken on to himself a wif eand all the
duties, bliss and worries that goes
with one.
Short skirts are doomed on College
Heights it seems. Maybe, its a good
thing because it won’t be long now be-
fore the high winds of March will be
here to make it embarrassing for those
without weights on their skirts to
venture out-doors.
Ben Brite officially announced at
assembly last Saturday for the bene-
fit of the girls, that he would have
his picture made for the Pedagog.
Ben thinks this will help the sale of
the' Pedagog. Following is a poem

and to establish a record in the half
mile and regain a place on the relay
team, of which he was a member for
three years.
Other members of last year’s squad
who failed to letter but are expected
to be gala members of the team this
year are: “Young” Stribling, Chili
Morton, Iago Reeves, and Rufus Fren-
zel.
New students who expected to make
good are: Marris Morgan, the high
school star from Kyle; B. H. Scott,
from Crosby; Bauer, who is a good
two-miler; Lee Kohlenberg, from New
Braunfels; Charley White, from the
Windy West; Euclid Reavy, from
Floresville, and a few others who will
make old men put out their best to
hold their places.
This is the largest squad the col-
lege has ever known to be out work-
ing this early in the season. Every
one is pointing toward the Texas
Relays.
Lyons McCall and Slats Barnett
who were great assets to the team,
will not be with us this year, and
someone will have to make a display
of real track ability to fill their
places. Here’s hoping they are as
faithful in other work in life as they
have been in track. Burnett has not
finished college and will some day
return.
Everyone is going out regular and
working hard. The track schedule is
a good one and well worth working
and training hard for.' It won’t be
so very long now, boys, so let’s pour
it on now before it will be too late.
Earl: “You need to keep your eyes
open around here.”
Modine: “Why?”
Earl: “Because people will think
you are crazy if you go around with

Coach: “Don’t mind this big guy.
The bigger they are the harder they
fall.”
Ben: “Yeah, but suppose he falls
on me.”

Saint gpard. Before the close of the'
game Frenzel and Dixon, for the Bob-
cats, and Riley for St. Edwards, were
also ejected from the game. •
,St. Edwards were the first to score,
with Solomito ringing a pretty basket
from a side shot. Riley then made a
free throw, making the score 3-0 for
St. Edwards. But this lead was short-
lived, for Dixon and Dailey immediate-
ly rung long baskets to give the Bob-
cats a 4r3 lead. It looked asr if the
Bobcats were beginning to fathom the
Saints’ defense, but at this point the
Bobcats began to have trouble with
their passing, with numerous passes
going wild, which showed the Bob-
cats up considerable. St. Edwards’ of-
fense, which was built around Riley,
giant center, and Durrenberger, was-
functioning perfectly out in the center
of the court, but the close guarding
of Frenzel, Dailey and Dixon was mak-
ing them shoot from long distance,
with the inevitable result that the
Bobcat guards would get the re-
bounds. Only once in the first half did
St. Eds score from rebounds, and this
by Riley, Saint center.
The score at the end of the half
was 10-8 in St .Edwards’ favor.
Dailey started the second half by
ringing a free goal, to bring the Bob-
cats within one point of St. Eds. The
playing at this stage of the game was
practically in the middle of the court,
'with neither side being able to pene-
trate the other’s defense.
Vest and Erspamer then went out
on personals. Ward took Vest’s place
and O’Brien took Erspamer’s position.
The Bobcat defense faltered at this
point for only a few moments, but it
was sufficient to give St. Edwards a
lead—for Riley and James, in quick
succession, slipped through the Bob-
cat defense for crip shots arid goals,
to give St. Edwards a lead of 14-9.
Frenzel, star guard of the Bobcats,
was theri put out on personals, and
Wright, who took his place, made a
free goal to make the score 14-10.
Dailey, at this point, furnished the
offensive feature of the game by
dribbling through the St. Edwards
defense and making two baskets in
quick succession, making the score 14-
14. But over-eagerness on the part of
the Bobcat guards, to cover Riley,
caused them to foul him and he made
both shots, making the score 16-14.
Soon after making the free shot, Ri-
ley went out on personals, but his
work had been done in those last two
free throws for the game ended soon
after, with the score 16-15 in favor of
St. Edwards.
Riley and Durrenberger starred for
St. Edwards, while Dailey, Dixon and
Frenzel played btest for the Bobcats.
The lineup:
Bobcats: Vest, Johnson, Ward and
smith, forward; Dailey (8), center;
Dixon (5), Frenzel arid Wright (2),
guard.
St. Edwards: James (2) and Solo-
mito (7), forward; Riley (7), center;
Erspamer and Durrenberger, guard.

The members of the Pennybacker
Literary Society, and a few invited
guests, enjoyed a weinner roast at
Wimberly Monday afternoon.
After arriving at Wimberly a large
fire was made. Since our equipment
did not furnish a complete kitchen out-
fit, each one made a scramble for a
good stick to roast their weinners on.
There was plenty to eat, and everyone
ate to their heart’s content.
This entertainment was enjoyed by
the- following guests and members:
Bertha Morton, Alino Stratton, Lena
