Looking ’Em Over
No one football team has ever
won the southwestern conference
title twice in succession. Never-
theless, most critics give T. C. U.
the edge in the 1930 race. Cy.
Leland, plus an easy schedule,
plus a veteran combination,
should equal victory. Arkansas,
Texas, and Baylor meet the Frogs
in Fort Worth, and T. C. U. has
no hard intersectional games
carded.
However, before the Frogs, or
anyone else can win the title,
they must reckon with the S. M.
U. Mustangs. The Ponies with
Weldon Mason and Bruce Katt-
man offer a hard wall to scale,
and would be given the edge were
it not for their tough schedule.
The Mustangs meet both Army
and Notre Dame, and if the team
is not too badly damaged in these
tilts, it will make a strong bid
for the crown.
While little has been said about
the Texas University machine
this season, the Longhorns will
put a strong team on the field,
and should finish in the upper
half of the bracket, Arkansas is
not given much chance in the
chase.
Baylor will be back with a
strong team this year, and if
their past defense has improved
since last season, they may sur-
pries the critics and win just
as they surprised them and lost
last year. A. and M. is expected
to finish toward the bottom of the
ladder.
Rice is the conference “mystery
team. The Owls are doped to
win at least two conference
games, and if they succeed there
will be much rejoicing at the In-
stitute. With 25 backs, 16 ends,
13 tackles, 7 guards, and 3 cen-
ters, the Owls will put up a great
fight and will not be a “set up"
for any team in the conference.
*****
Jack Meagher is at it again.
The genial Irisher who is now
coaching at Rice is building up a
powerful Knute Rockne system of
football at the Houston institu-
tion. The hard-working Meagher
spent his day in active football-
ing under the famous Rockne at
Notre Dame, and now he is fol-
lowing Knute's system of sending
in four or five complete elevens
during the course of a game. Jack
has some sixty men, mainly soph-
omores, working hard and each
of the men will have an even
chance to start every game.

The World Series is over. Con-
nie Mack, George Earnshaw, and
Company, calmly steam-rollered
the St. Louis Cardinals to cop the
baseball championship of the
world for the second consecutive
year. Earnshow, by his brilliant
performance definitely establish-
ed himself as one of the greatest
series pitchers of all time by run-
ning up a string of 22 consecutive
scoreless innings before the Cardi-
nals took advantage of his last-
inning wildness to score one run
and avoid another shutout at his
hands. Earnshaw pitched 25 out
of the 54 innings played during
the series, and he was the master
in every one of those innings. He
gave up only two runs and twelve
hits during the series.
******
A particular feature of the
Bulldog-Blinn game was the play
of “Cousin” Lawrence, - speedy
Bulldog signal caller and center.
Cousin Lawrence ripped off sev-
eral nice gains, and his run for
a touchdown in the first few min-
utes of play was a feature of the
game.
* * * * * *
“Smokey” Schwiening, seem-
ingly has learned a new method
of backing up the line. In the
Blinn game he flashed around the
Blinn line and in ape-like fashion
threw the Blinn backs for losses.
Schwiening played a brilliant
game and is almost a sure shot
for a regular birth in the Bull-
dog backfield.

Fellows: the Bulldogs start
battling Saturday when they
meet the Dummies in Austin. The
Dummies are plenty good and
will be out to avenge the defeat
handed them last year.
Gus Blumberg is looking mighty
good at center and will no doubt
see plenty of action in the game
with the Dummies. In the Blinn
game he was continually break-
ing through and throwing the op-
ponents for losses.
“Chink” Hartmann, has devel-
oped a world of drive over last
year’s performance. “Chink'” is
putting everything in his back-
field work and promises to be one
of Coach Westons best ball car-
riers.
“Carlo” Heinrich is absolutely
moon-eyed about a certain at-
tractive co-ed. He can no longer
get his mind on football. He

BULLDOGS TAKE BLINN
FOR 25 POINTS
FOOTBALL CAP-
TAINS EXPRESS
OPTIMISM
When the Bulldogs’ co-captains
were interviewed as to what they
considered the probable outcome
of the game with the Deaf and
Dumb Institute, the two fighting
Bulldog leaders seemed very op-
timistic over the prospects that
Lutheran College would turn her
efforts into an overwhelming vic-
tory.
Harold Hildebrand, San An-
tonio huskie who plays left tackle
and is a veteran on the Bulldog
gridiron was the first of the two
captains to be interviewed. He
said in reference to the game with
the Dummies, “We have a good
chance to win the game with the
Dummies—as good a chance as
any team could wish. If we fight
as I know every Bulldog will, we
can win.”
The other captain, “Chick”
Dannhaus, flashy half-back from
Brenham, likewise spoke freely
concerning the game with the
Dummies.
Chick is trodding his third year
on the Bulldog gridiron and it is
an accepted fact that he is one
of the fleetest ball carriers ever
to wear the Blue and Gold.
“Chick” said in part, “I will be
right in there doing my best and
I know you can depend on the
rest of the men.” We have a
good chance to win this game and
we will. Fellows, with this kind
of spirit manifested on the part
of the co-captains, it seems that
we can do our part and give the
boys a good send off when they
depart for Austin.
The chorus made its first ap-
pearance of the season at the Re-
formation services at Grace Lu-
theran church in San Antonio,
Sunday night, October 26. The
program was composed of sacred
hymns and several musical selec-
tions. Rev. Braulick delivered
the sermon of address. The sub-
ject of his theme was “The Chal-
lenge of Augsburg.”
ANNUAL HOME-COMING DAY
NOVEMBER 11
(Continued from page 1)
Royal party will head the pro-
cession. The parade promises tn
be an event which will attract
plenty of attention.
The biggest event of the entire
festival will be the clash between
the Bulldogs and Clifton Jun-
ior College at 3:30 p. m. The
Bulldogs will be fighting a big
home game in the presence of a
good many alumni and former
students; consequently a real fray
is expected between the two rival
teams.
An all-student play will mark
the final event which will most
assuredly prove to be very en-
joyable to students, alumni, and
friends. A comedy in three acts
entitled “Cyclone Sally” will be
presented at the Parish House
under the supervision of Prof.
Saxild.
Every former student is invit-
ed to be present and the largest
crowd in Lutheran college history
is expected at L. C.’s greatest
homecoming.
goes about in a daze. Poor fel-
low!
“Slime” Petsch, the pride of
“Fritz Town” has been shifted to
guard and what a world of drive
that boy has developed. Men!
he is good.
Harold Hildebrand, San An-
tonio huskie, continues to be a
ton of strength in the Bulldog
forward wall. In the Blinn game
he was in nearly every play and
at the bottom of most of them.
Fellows! he’s good.
FIRST MARKER
SCORED BY
WEIMAR
In one of the greatest gridiron
battles ever witnessed in Seguin
the Lutheran Bulldogs defeated
their “Old Rival” Blinn 25 to 0
on the Lutheran grid. The Bull-
dogs outplayed and out-charged
their opponents throughout the
entire game and were never in
danger of being scored on.
“Chick” Dannhaus, flashy half-
back for the Bulldogs played one
of the best games of his college
career, never failing to gain. He
was one of the main-stays of the
Bulldog ground gaining depart-
ment accounting ior three of the
touchdowns.
“Chesty” Blackburn’s punting
was a factor in keeping Blinn in
their own territory, as he reeled
off several long kicks. The abi-
lity of the Bulldog line to charge
low and hard helped in putting
over the victory.
The first Bulldog marker came
in the first few minutes of play
when Blinn tried to pass. The
pass instead of landing into the
arms of a Blinn gridster, was in-
tercepted by “Cousin” Weimar,
who galloped thirty yards behind
perfect interference for a touch-
down. Blackburn made the ex-
tra point, making the score 7 to 0
in favor of the Bulldogs. Again
in the first quarter the Bulldogs
scored when Dannhaus, twisting
and slithering through the line,
got loose, and with the aid of
splendid interference raced fifty
yards for a touchdown. Try for
the extra point was missed.
In the second half the Bull-
dogs out played their opponents,
but it was not until the closing
minutes of the third quarter that
they scored on a beautiful fifty-
yard heave from Blackburn which
settled in Dannhaus’ outstretched
arms behind the goal fine. The
try for point was missed. The
Bulldogs made 14 first downs to
5 for Blinn. Dipple was the whole
show for the Blinn college aggre-
gation with his passing, running
and punting.
Harold Hildebrand and “Buck”
Saegert were sensations in the
P^tMnor iine whi’e “Smoky”
Schwiening was a shining light in
the back field.

“BENCH TEAM”
COACHED BY
PROF. SAXILD
Although the “bench team”
game did not draw as big a crowd
as the Bulldog-Javelina affray, it
w'as morei interesting to watch
“warm up” King stop “Big Boy”
Borchers and what a game
“Slime” Petsch, “Blue” Blumberg,
and “Speedy” Ebner played. Man
they were good! Why, on one
occasion they almost turned the
bench over.
In the first half the bench
team was roundly out-played by
their opponents. Strange to say,
Coach Saxild was not pleased at
all.
The second half was more or
less a night-mare. Time after
time, the bench team fumbled at
the crucial moment only to be
saved by “One Minute” McGrath,
as the game ended.
As I said before, even though
the bench team did not draw as
big a crowd as the Bulldog-Jave-
lina affray, many fans were won
over to the bench team side by
the fighting spirit. It is need-
less to say, therefore, that Coach
Saxild is proud of his boys. No
fooling.
Alton Jung was a sensation on
the bench while “Chink” Hart-
mann and “Herf” Weinert were
the shining lights._
BOYS DRILL
FOR VICTORY
The second day of practice
since the Victoria game, found
Coach Weston working his charges
hard, driving them into their top
speeds. He was watching the
team as a whole rather than the
individuals.
The Victoria game showed many
defects in the several cogs of the
Bulldog eleven; however, Coach
Weston is determined to file them
out. A short scrimmage was held
with the backs directing their
attention solely to smashes over
tackle and guard.
Afterwards, the Bulldog coaches
put their huskies through hard
work-outs on recovering the ball,
and short passes over the line.
The backs were drilled on both
the offensive and defensive pre-
paration for their game with the
Deaf and Dumb Institute.
