Even the weather seemed against us, for the sun beamed down hot, and cool days were long in their coming. But the forty-six lads who rallied to the call of Coach Martin did not wilter and from these faithful fellows a light, but fleety and scrapy team was mustered. So the 'Al..ittle Corporalsn, as an ardent trying this and that, found themselves and astonished friend and foe with their playing. The fast lVlarlc's eleven was the first to feel the power of Coach lVlartin's Red ancl White grid machine. Despite the absen f ld ' 35 to 0. The following Friday the Little Corporalsu packed their togs and journeyed to Lambert. Tea ue was th t d' ' ' ' g e outs an ing star of the game, intercepting two passes which resulted in touch- downs. Adams contributed greatly to the battle in opening up wagon roads through which the Aggie baclcs easily passed.

C. started off with a vim. Vickers, the luminary of the squad, has made for the past few years an enviable record at center. With Hurt and Aust as forwards and Fleming and Moses as guards, we have a team that is on the job every minute of play. O'Keefe, Rush, Wren, Twitchell and Ross are subs of no mean ability and are making the varsity work to hold their present positions. K Though defeated by the Hinds Junior College and the Delta State Teachers College, our squad has been gloriously victorious in six games out of nine played. Laurels have been won in games with outstanding teams such as, lndianola Y, Moorhead all-stars, and the Belzoni Y. With season about half over, the prospects look bright for the S. C. basketeers. When they journey to Clinton in March, they expect to make themselves heard from in an effort to bring home the bacon from the Junior College tournament. 4 : w 5 2 5 3 iff?
