Messrs. Lee, Hutcheson, Hogg, and other enthusiastic alumni have finally arrived at a plan to instill into the graduates of this institution the same spirit and fellowship which characterized them in undergraduate days. Every year on March 2 the anniversary of Texas ' independence, the Texans ' Fourth of July, banquets and meetings are held in the different sections and counties of the State. These sections have been decided on according to population somewhat similar to the Congressional Districts. Committees and section chiefs have been appointed by the president of the Alumni Association to act in an organizing and arranging capacity and to co-operate with the general officers of the Alumni Association. The plan is meet- ing with no little degree of success, and should continue to do so with the expansion and internal development of our Alumni Association. illllllllil llllllilllli Hil III if 1914 5 Hv6actus JEDb l the,- rgj THE ALCALDE ITH this, the second y ar of its issue, the ALCALDE has become one of the foremost alumni publications in the coun- try. The ALCALDE suffers nothing in comparison with the OLD PENN of the University of Pennsylvania or the CORNELL ALUMNI NEWS. Time was when the alumni organization, known as an association, was only a name, but today the ALCALDE has done more than any one factor in the cementing of a heretofore loose organization into a compact and unified body. Fritz G. Lanham, the editor, is one of Varsity ' s most loyal and capable alumni, and spends much time in and around the University selecting his material and composing the whole. THE ALCALDE Th« Alumni Maiai.nt R. T. Fleming, Jr., the local edi- tor, is due much of the credit for the high standard of this publication. Dick was editor-in-chief of the Nineteen Twelve CACTUS, and has held many editorial positions in the University. In his special office, adjoining the Alumni Association room, Dick pens, pur- veys and culls the necessary copy for the successive issues of the volume. Besides the attractive cover, the ALCALDE contains other features, such as poetry from some of the Texas University bards, biographical sketches, reminiscences of old alumni, pictures. Who ' s Who at Texas. Pere- grinusings. Editorials. Faculty Notes, Athletic jottings, Texas Exes and student life. FRITZ G. LANHAM Editor of th« Atcal.1. THE ALUMNI ROOM nate in having headquarters in the main building, so ac- cessible and inviting as those now afforded them. The Alumni Room, besides containing the pictures of prominent alumni and ex- students, is at present a storeroom for all the cups and banners of past ath- letic teams. The famous Texas 6, A. M. 0 banner occupies the prominent position on the walls which should be accorded such a trophy. The faculty members, from the original in- structors and tutors to our present teachers of college youth, have their niche in this alumni hall of fame. The CACTUS in its swaddling clothes of 1894 is there, and with it the successive volumes, including that of the present date. The history and growth of the Uni- versity is portrayed vividly in these vari-colored vol- umes. Every picture, ornament, and decoration calls to mind some alumnus or ex-student of bygone days. Some are in the Cabinet — some are Justices of the Peace — but all are loyal Texas men. Along with relics of the past are hopes for the future. The Cass Gilbert drawings for the new gym- nasium are in evidence, and show what the final re- sults for a new gym will be. l % The following para- graphs are from the pen of Fritz Lanham, and we quote them with apologetic avidity : Now that we have our cups, let me refer briefly to the two old B Hall dinner bells among our accoutre- ments. They are cow bells. I shall not be suffi- ciently cowardly to com- ment further in merriment concerning them; suffice it is to say that they are very good specimens of their kine. Reposing near them on one of our reminiscent shelves are the eight baseballs used on the trip last spring, a jaunt which resulted in eight victories for Texas. In close proximity to these horsehides, is a pigskin. It is no longer on the pig. Its position is more exalted than any it ever attained on a punt. Do you ask wherefore? Two explanatory cards make reply: ' Ball won by the University of Texas from A. M., Houston, Texas, Nov. 13, 1911, Score 6 to 0; ' ' R. Perry, L. E. ; M. A. Ramsdell, L. T. ; Louis Jordan, L. G. ; D.

Qv 5C - ' ftn.., GEO .T.LEE ANY events occur during the eight and one-half months of our butterfly ex- istence in the pale of University Halls. Of these many, it is given to us to de- pict and describe a few of them and a few indeed. Some are even beyond the power of the most vivid description and some, by virtue of the authority of the University fathers, are hushed and suppressed. Not a few are of such importance as to require more than the average page of College Year drool. For them, by reason of their prime importance, a more serious and refined notation is required. College Year attempts to give room for the more frivolous features. The Univer- sity has been noted this year, no less for its pep and stunts than for its encompassing supremacy in all branches of athletics. The Freshmen have more spirit than ever be- fore, due in a large part to the loss of the pushball contest, the mishap to their presi- dent, their tank defeat and the boiler episode. In fact, the whole University community has caught that little bacillus of anima- tion, that little germ of enthusiasm which, like the evil germs of champagne, often makes the world go round. This augurs well for the Universit y, for when such germ is killed by the formaldehyde of indifference and the lime of cynicism, then will the disease of loyalty perish. The domestic felicity of the University family must live. ' uJM jE ' RE here because we ' re here. Vainly has the Dean tried to find out our mission here, but lo, it is as much a mystery as how two-thirds of us got here. In the words of one classic scribe — we have arrived — how the powers what am only knoweth. The co-eds and the new ones in our midst came in at two of the above places, the rest of us — just naturally beset by many difficulties, drifted and snooped in at the other place. Many were the long and weary hours that we lay hidden in the tall and protecting grass awaiting the coming of a fast freight, so that once more we could troop merrily over this old hill, and do unto the Freshman homage that is due unto him. We drift in here every fall, but to stay we knoweth not — that is still another mystery for the shaggy headed Dean to solve. We ' re glad to get here in September, we ' re glad to leave in December. But ah I ' tis an anxious farewell as we look into the faces of our fair friends. We knoweth not our fate. We alight from our sliding door Pullmans after Christmas feeling depressed on account of our grades and the straw in our collar which we can ' t reach. But, there is sadness for a few days; some of the finest have gone. They have departed out into the hard crool wor-r-ld. But time passes swiftly in its flight and once more it is a cool June night. It is time to go back home, but we are delayed several days, for after we have paid our bills we find the freight service is very dull these days. THE THIRTIETH ANNIVERSARY HE usual stiffness of the annual degree-snatching contest was put on the blink last year, and there was a big reunion held instead. The thirtieth year of the University was celebrated in fitting style. Ex- tensive preparations were made, and the old hill was attired in holiday rags when the old grads and erstwhile former studes began to arrive. Every nook and corner of the campus had been lighted, and there was joy and merriment everywhere. The celebration began with a baseball game between the alumni and the first team. Then, about two thousand people followed the band to Wheeler ' s grove to satisfy their appe- tites with a big barbecue. There were speeches galore, inter- spersed with the eats, and the eats and speeches were full of the Texas spirit. Next came the class day celebration with many interesting takeoffs on the school life. On Monday and Tues- day, both afternoon and night, there were innumerable band concerts all over the campus. On the second day of the cele- bration, the commencement exercises were held. The line of march of the graduates formed, and the classes marched in a body to the auditorium. Here, Dr. Milton W. Humphries of the University addressed the graduates. He paid a high trib- ute to the founders of the University, and enumerated very vividly the many difficulties that beset the first faculty. The conferring of the degrees then followed. Governor Colquitt made an address in which he commented upon the present pros- pects of the future. The climax of the huge celebration was marked by a big parade, which passed from the campus down Congress Avenue and was over two miles in length. The most attractive feature was the decorated automobile section; there being over fifty beautifully decorated cars. At the head was Colonel George W. Littlefield, Chairman of the Executive Committee, which made the celebration such a success. ITH about five hundred registra- tions and with scores of women in attendance from all over the State, the Home Economics Week, held from February 9th to the 14th in- clusive, proved to be a record break- er. The meetings were held in the Y. M. C. A. Auditorium, and speakers of National prominence in their several spheres of activity deliv- ered lectures, and gave demonstrations. Among the prominent speakers were Prof. Frank Parsons, who directed his remarks along the lines of art and color, Dr. Rachel Yarros, of Chicago, who considered questions of biographical importance, and Mrs. Kelley and Mrs. Shapleigh, of New York. The unusual interest manifested in Home Eco- nomics Week this year indicates that the problems of Home Economics are becoming a subject of intense inquiry and of close investigation, not only to the women students of the University, but to the women of all parts of the State as well. TOUCH of high life was given the Senior Electricals by the Old Man in trips to Fort Worth and San Mar- cos, which afforded a little first-hand experience, and gave them a real in- sight into those activities which it is hoped will furnish bread and butter next year. In the fall term, the whole bunch went up to Fort Worth to see how the big plants of that city are run, and offered suggestions to the managers. They inspected the establishments of Swift, Armour, and various others, and expressed themselves as being very well satisfied with the way the businesses were carried on. They repeated in Dallas. In the Spring term, the remnants who had sur- vived the exams went down to San Marcos on a picnic. While there they tested the power plant, and as there were no Freshmen to shovel coal, reported an inter- esting experience. Incidentally, as Dean Taylor be- lieves in a little practical experience along with class lectures, he assigned enough lab. work to keep the or- dinary human being busy until next Thanksgiving. JUNIOR WEEK jfljHE JUNIOR CLASS this year carried into fuller effect the movement started last year. The affair was a big success, and the class as a whole met together several times during the week. The week started off with a big get-together party on Monday night, February 16. Various games were indulged in, and then the members of the class were paired off by lj JJ A a guessing contest for the main stunt of the evening — Every Junior, a four act farce based on Every Woman. In the stunt which was the product of several of the co-eds, all that Everyjunior knows was brought out. Everyjunior entered companied by her handmaiden ' s Beauty, Truth and Timidity. The sketch was carried out from the time that Everyjunior entered school until Times up. The next feature of the week was a concert by the University Glee Club. A special attraction was reserved for the Juniors, and a very pleasant evening was spent. The next afternoon, there was a tea given at the Woman ' s Building. Everybody turned out from four till six and enjoyed a social cup of tay. There were rumors of a tea dansant but the movement was killed by the chairman of the finance committee of the reception. Mrs. Spurgeon Bell presided very gracefully over the tea table, and saw that everyone enjoyed himself. Thursday night was the event of a stag banquet at the Driskill when about fifty gathered around the festive board and en- joyed good eats. At the same time, the girls of the class were having their Prom. Rising upon their dignity, they made the affair democratic in every respect possible. The senior girls were the guests of the evening, and about seventy couples enjoyed the dancing until a late hour. The grand march was led by Miss May Fenet, Vice-President of the class, with Miss Louis Carlton, Vice- President of the senior class. Forgetting their dignity and upperclassmanlike ways, the Juniors staged a moving picture show party. The class met and went to town in a body where a show had been chartered for them. Freshman stunts were resorted to, and the afternoon was very pleasantly spent watching the pictures, while they munched peanuts and popcorn. Saturday, the week rounded out by the Annual Reception. About seventy couples enjoyed dancing. The grand march was led by President Parks with Miss Sue Campbell. The hall had been tastefully decorated in the colors of the class. At one end of the hall was a great bank of ferns. Through the efficient efforts of President Parks and his committeemen, the week was successful from a financial point of view. KWEEHEE INITIATION ELDOM is it given unto any fair co-ed to be met at the various entrances of the building, and to be ushered through the portals thereof, with all the bowing, scraping and dignity usually accorded by liveried footmen. But thus do the Kweehees, followers of the great Patron Saint of the Engineering Department. Alexan- der Frederick Claire, a muchly besmattered, erstwise, beer- garden Dutchman, initiate into their brotherhood the chosen few. Not only the fair damsels bowed in and out of the building, but at all the favorite stopping places were there ever ready footmen to bow, and thus mete to her worship due. Dress suits have been used for various things, and now all the available are borrowed, for the time had come for the initiated to wend their way to the home of the Co-eds of Greekdom. There they must wait upon those gath- ered around the festive board, and see that every wish is complied with, but some places are more desirable than oth- ers, for at the favored few there is upon the table the catch that the other brother initiates have made that morn- ing in the lakes of the Campus. Woe unto him who is neglectful in his duties, and who spilleth thereupon anything whatsoever on the cloth. For unto him is punishment to be made his reward. The afternoon was spent in spiel ing and selling peanuts at the picture shows. Many were the nickels spilled into the coffers on account of the loud voices and witty utterances of the would-be brothers. Then so that they could go down in history as worthy and full-fledged digni- taries, the Pathe Weekly man turned upon them his camera, and took pictures of the bunch as they did their snake dance down Congress Avenue. That night the further mysteries of being a good fol- lower of Aleck were revealed unto them, and also something in regard to the order, for which they had performed some- what in the manner of Junior Laws in order to enter. M MM [j Gym Rehabilitation HE home of Atlas and the other mythical strong men has undergone a radical change. The landlady has Spring cleaning and a new habitat is the result. Roses are now blooming where thorns used to be. Where once were bare and ugly walls, now rest pictures of the many various teams in all branches of sport, which have done so much for the University in an athletic way. On either side of the entrance of the Gym are these views in sepia. The new quarters of the Coaches and Athletic Director are of a much more modern type of architecture and design than has ever been their luck before. The shower and locker rooms have been rehauled and refurnished. Altogeth- er, it makes the Gym much softer for the knights of the abbreviated trousers and the followers of the illilli III — The Austin Flood ND LO, for seven days and nights did it rain. The clouds did gather and the water did de- scend. The sun (took refuge behind the clouds, and th e rain did come. It came as it had never come before, and it arrived when the fall exams were ready to begin. It rained and it rained; yea, verily, it did rain some more ! The Colorado did arise in its banks and wash out railroads. And there ensued many days when the long-expected checks did not come. But the last few days of exams the waters did re- cede, and there was misery in the land where there had been joy. There was no way to get home. It looked as if it meant a Christmas passed in Austin. But, lo, the sun shone forth, and the railroads were patched. There was joy throughout the land, for many were the prodigals to get to go home and partake of the fatted calf. Hiiii: Eiliiiilliiiii hi |i|: I:!l i ' i 1 I — K 1 Examinations ERILY, ' tis the week before Christmas and all through the house not a person is stirring — not even a Freshman. ' Tis exam- ination week and quietude reigns supreme. The pianola has been nailed up; the Spanish Athletes ' Convention has adjourned sine die. No longer are the latest steps practiced on the new Brussels, and even the most worldly of the society boys find no pleasure in their former diversions, but can be found wading by the hour through the unfamiliar pages of Channing ' s History, Beards ' Government, or some similar monumental work of the ages. Verily, the week of examination, that fearful triennial travail, is at hand ! Requiescat in pace. Burning of Colquitt Hall O ! the sonorous sounds of sleep did cease in the afternoon classes. There was much awakening and stretching of arms, for the erstwise auto truck was coming with a noise that awoke even the most sleepful. Many were the visions of wide-awake studes rescuing fair co-eds from third floors, but ' twas in vain. There was only one floor. It had become ignited when a mixture, which was not intended to go off, did what was not intended. It lit up the place, but in vain, it was Colquitt Hall! It could not burn ; it was too well constructed. It was like the notable for whom it was named ; it exasperat- ed everyone by not doing what would have been best. It was over in a few minutes, and back went the poor unfortunates to their slumbers, and the sonorous sounds were distinguishable again. 4 THE BATTLE OF THE HYMN BOOKS Sing a song of songbooks, Chapel full of row ; Four and twenty Sophomores Scrapping Freshmen now. When the bill is opened, The boys begin to sing: ' Didn ' t have a hand in ' t— Didn ' t do a thing! ' HE advocates of the simple life ordinarily are not so simple, either in their lives, heads or actions, as their conversation would indicate. Disclaiming any attempt to place the Freshman Class in the category of essaying the simple life, we nevertheless contend that their lives, heads and recent ac- tions greatly belie the ordinarily docile tenor of their conversation. We repeat, far from advocating the simple life, the Freshmen rose in spirited rebellion when an attempt was made at the beginning of the winter term to interfere with, or as they thought, to ridi- cule their inherent rights of suffrage and civic duties. It happened thuswise: On a balmy day in January, the Freshman Sachem convoked an assembly for the purpose of choosing leaders for their winter reception and other commendable class affairs. Although the upper classmen were expressly forbidden to attend, they so far forgot their usual dignity of demeanor as to present themselves in bewildering numbers in all portions of the election room. The purpose of the ruse soon became evident, at least to all except the Freshmen. When the unsuspecting president called for nominations, an insignificant looking would-be Freshman immediately placed in nomination as the man of the hour, Mr. I. P. Lochridge. The name seemed to tickle the fancy of the Frosh, for they imme- diately elected the business manager of the University by an overwhelming majority. When someone ventured the explanation that the newly elected executive would be incapable of serving the class satisfactorily on account of his official duties, the Freshmen ' s ire knew no bounds. And to augment the mis- chief already accomplished and to add fuels to the rising flames of Frosh indignation, someone had the temerity to propose the name of Mr. Leroy G. Denman of History 2 fame. This nomination was the last straw. Upon hearing and recognizing the name of their beloved History instruc- tor, the Freshmen finally grasped the magnitude of their oppressors ' fraudulent interferences. In a mad effort to drive the offending parties from the field of action, all the hymn books of the chapel room were hurled with bewil- dering rapidity at the jokers. But for the keen discretion and timely interference of the CACTUS business mana- ger, the famous battle of the hymn books might have continued to the present writing. But perish the thought! Mr. Daniel, climbing upon a desk, admonished the offenders, in the name of peace and harmony, to evacuate the field of strife and leave the tattered songbooks and battle begrimed chapel to the keeping of its rightful occupants. And so, amid jeers and imprecations, the upperclassmen retreated from the field, acknowledging the evil results of their unstatesmanlike interference, but vowing vengeance on the Frosh. 1914 ! MARCH 2nd CELEBRATION RADITIONS are generally hoary with age and besprinkled whiskers, but this year, March 2 did get unto itself one shave and one haircut. The traditions were to be ob- served in a new manner. The old played-out stunts were to be repeppered and imbued with a little more than patriotism and tradition. The movement was started weeks ahead. The agitation did spread far; so great was the pep that it started the night before as in the good old days of yore. Certain things were forgotten; namely, little pledges, for they nev- er hold on holidays when school is not in session. Recent and long standing errors committed by those who were in our midst were re- membered; and the paddle and straps were taken down, dusted, and once more warmed. Paint cans were brought into play. Many were the wailings in the house of Beck on the morning after the night before. There did gather close unto the old tank a bunch of Freshmen who desired mightily to see the figures I 7 stand out on the tank, but there was a bunch of Sophs who did desire to see a 16, and also to exercise many good and worthy boards. The bands did meet. Oratory was indulged in, to keep off an onslaught, but to what avail? The freshmen were made to build a fire and an all- night watch was kept to see that there was not erased from the tank the words Son « Fr — ; ms. All night long did the fire burn; and the next morning the watch did disband with their sign intact. The real celebration did begin at eight thirty at the Capitol grounds. The pa. ••■ -«as to form by classes, and the march to the Main Building was begun. But the cannon, with which the Johnny Rebs had chasea the Yanks, did get lodged in its mouth the piece of a ramrod. It could not be extracted. The band played and waited. The Colonels were called, then came the Majors, but the ramrod would not budge. Finally the colored infantry was able to get it out and the peerade commenced. The classes marched in bodies and fully eight hundred were in the line of march. Woe, wailing, and much gnashing of teeth took place when there was discovered an onlooker by his classmates. No excuse went. Punishment had to be meted out. It was done on the spot by very efficient marshals. Finally the parade reached the Campus, and in front of the Main Building, twenty-one salutes were fired. Then did the Vigilance Committee organize their men so as to rush the gate of the athletic field to see the annual push ball contest between the Freshmen and Sophomores. PUSH BALL CONTEST. Owing to the prevailing pledge, the old rush was not indulged in, and there was staged instead the third annual push ball contest. The Freshmen greatly outnumbered the upperclassmen this year, and on that account the contest was divided into three parts. In the first third of the contest in which the whole body of Freshmen met the Sophs, the first year men were unable to conquer them with their superior numbers. It was the fiercest contest that has ever been. Time and time again did the men get on the ball to keep the herd of Freshmen from overpowering them and rushing the ball by them. In the next third there were one hundred and twenty-five on each side, man to man. It was in this part of the contest that the Sophs forgot the tradition of going down in defeat, and pushed the ball over for two scores. The last period of play in which there were fifty men to the side was fast and spirited, but neither side succeeded in scoring. The whistle blew, and the Sophs were declared to be the winners. After the contest on Clark Field, a large crowd assembled in the auditorium where the Declaration of Independence of the Re- public of Texas was read, and C a very interesting address. The afternoon brought forth a good game of ball between Coach Billy Disch ' s men and Uic . ienators. Varsity won a ten-inning pitchers ' battle by the score of two to one. P t ilUPllllliHlil uini, tiil VISIT OF SECRETARY HOUSTON N February, the University had the pleasure of welcoming back into her midst for a short while, former President David Franklin Houston, now Secretary of Agriculture. In company with Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo, Dr. Houston was in Austin for two days for the purpose of holding the hearing on the location of the regional reserve bank for the Southwest. Enthusiastically welcomed by a thousand students, led by the band, Dr. Houston was con- ducted amidst yells and music to the Federal Building. After repeated and insistent demands from the students for a speech, the Secretary responded with a brief address of appreciation of his cordial reception, and voiced a sincere wish for the betterment and growth of the institution. On being interviewed by a DAILY TEXAN reporter, Dr. Houston stated that he was of the opinion that the Uni- versity of Texas was doing more work with less money than any other University in the land. Dr. Houston was the guest of President Mezes while in Austin. He and President Mezes have been close friends for many years — their careers until recently having been almost parallel. Both graduated in the same class at Har- vard; a year or two later both accepted positions in the University of Texas — Dr. Mezes as a teacher of Philosophy. and Dr. Houston as a teacher of Government and Economics, neither knowing at the time of the other ' s action. Ac- cidentally they both arrived in Austin on the same train. Within a few years, Dr. Houston became Dean of the Academic Faculty. After serving in that capacity for several years, he resigned to accept the presidency of the Agri- cultural and Mechanical College of Texas. He was succeed- ed as Dean by President Mezes. Secretary Houston later returned to become President of the University upon the death of President Prather. When he resigned in 1908 to become President of Washington University, he was suc- ceeded by Dr. Mezes. i ] si w k un U ' l VERY two years the cry of democracy is laid aside and we go back to the days of old when royalty was it. Such words as democracy and informal are, for the time, forgotten, and the firing line of the Texan goes dead. But we do not proceed as in the days of old — let him who is strongest and most masterful ascend the throne. We yield to the graces of the ladies, and for that time, a Quink reigns over us, and the cry of votes for women is forgotten. Yea verily, we are democratic in one respect, for we don ' t throw ourselves blindly under her sway, but we limit her tenure of office and elect her. Pennies are saved and each penny counts as one vote. The race is fast and furious. Each desires to see his co-ed be Quink if the limit isn ' t too high. A great many get a few votes up to a certain point, but then the interest centers upon about ten, and the balloting is spirited. In last May, the voting lagged at first. Many were the candidates in the field. It was hard to choose. Many were the beauties of the various principalities who are striving to get to be coronated as the ruler. Many were the confabs and the pouring of molten sweetness into ears in the hopes that it would turn into gold. On the last day of the contest, the pennies began to roll. It looked as if the flippers of Eng- lish were yet to get into many dollars. The polls were kept open until ten o ' clock. There appeared one gentleman who was known to be extra strong with a young lady. He dis- ported a large roll of bills. Rumor had it they were placed in the ballot box. Woe came unto the house of Phi Diddle. It was thenceforth cleaned. A large roll passed up, and Marie, of the House of Jordt, was soon announced as Quink of the Circus. A few days later in the main auditorium, she was crowned as Quink, amidst the most elaborate ceremonies ever known here for many, many years. HUM §« 1914 «0 lyt adtus ] VARSITY CIRCUS A sawdust ring, a charging iteed, A tinselled gown, a daring deed, And thai ' t the way of the Circa . ' ES, and it was some circus. Full of pep, ginger, and go, all the way from the grand peerade to the ringing down of the curtain, when the far-touted, bucking, sidestepping mule failed to throw the merciless cow- punch. All the wonders of the world had been assembled into what was advertised as the greatest ag- gregation of performers on the earth. No expense, time, pain or otherwise had been spared by the management to make it the most gorgeous spectacle ever witnessed by mankind. THE PEERADE Promptly at three thirty there went up the cry, Hold your horses — the elephants are coming. But such was not the case — this was a real circus. There were no such old features as elephants, tigers or lions, but in their stead there were such animals as the rhinupug, direct from Australia, and the fierce, ferocious freak, the Alamagoozulum. Thus wending its way from Clark Field there issued three miles of splendor and spectacle. The powers that be had done it. They had fulfilled the fondest hopes that arose in the breasts of the breathless multitude. On, on came the wonderful production. In the lead, there was the queen of the circus, Marie of the House of Jordt. On account of the gruesome threats and bloody declarations of the unprincipled Griffith, she was surrounded by a horde of outriders. Then as an extra precaution, there were sixty bronc busters gathered from the headwaters of the Rio Grande. But, lo ' twas not enuf, so declared the Kink. There must be more protection and there was. Twenty of Villa ' s most trusted insurrectoreadors were induced to stop the fracas in the State of Chiranguaguerra long enuf to desert their leaders and come to the rescue of Royalty. THE QUINK ' S RETINUE Thus the multitude, with hearts beating feebly, witnessed the rest of the peerade. Following the Queen, came her court. Spurning the knightly steed of her queen, they rode in beautifully decorated automobiles. Every principality had done its best to outshine the royal equip- age, and indeed it was a gor- geous spectacle. Piphinaran- go, Tridudle, Alsacsdelphi, Chirogo, Katterage. Kaka- gonda, WonBuildo, Phimu- so, were all represented with beauty of their court. Then by special dispensation the Queen allowed the rabble to see that farfamed, deathde- fying wizard of the air, Sig- nore Ricardo Tuderinge Flamingo, perched high aloft in his latest Roverplaud. Owing to the faile of his special preparation, gasabul, to arrive, he was unable to y fly before the Queen. 1 l M THE FLOATS In the van, came the various floats of the different organizations. Many were the unique and wonderful crea- tions. Such was their fame that many have already been taken by Madri Gras for stand favorites. Clowns there were in abundance. The advertising said one hundred, but there were fully one hundred and fifty keeping the strictly democratic and informal onlookers in constant laughter. At the tail end of the procession, came the ani- mals. They were closely guarded, for they were the most ferocious in captivity. There were the Uglymuts. Toot- angs. Globerags, Apadares and scores of the more common beasts. Then there were the usual foor-forces — No votes no babies, we want votes not kisses, the usual A. . M. contingent, the army of Hooerta and the high divers. THE WHITE TOP At seven thirty, the three sawdust rings, the horizontal bars, the tight ropes, nets, trapeze and side shows pre- sented the appearance of the greatest show on earth to about two thousand spectators. On the arrival at the grounds, they were greeted by the most loud aggregation of spielers, hawkers and criers ever seen in Texas. The frantic and artful cries were heard : See the Phycho Animule show, the Loo Lo o Birds, the only and original Robinson Crusoe, Fuzzy Wuzzy, Three Balls for a Nickle, Hit the Nigger Baby, Two Segars for You, etc. All the time, bands were playing; clowns were performing; and the barkers raving. Thus the shows of the pike presented the actual thing, although they were sells on the inside (just what they were intended to be). THE REAL CIRCUS With a peal of trumpets; there came the real circus. There was the grand entrance, with some five hundred men and beasts in procession, circling before the great throng. Then there came silence and the great announcer announced that the show was on. The tight rope walker walked; the bazoo played; the acrobats did great and un- seen and unheard of stunts; the dainty bareback riders, dressed mostly with rouge, tripped on the backs of the dar- ing steeds. Then there came the grand spectacle, a bull fight. Then there came silence — the announcer stepped forward — the dare devil high diver was to perform. From an altitude of sixty feet, me was to drop into the tank of water. The spotlight was thrown and Burnett ascended to the top. After much preparation and many fainted ladies had been carried away, Burnett No. 2 dropped into the tank and stepped before the public. THE GREAT GRIPPETH Silence prevails. The Great Grippeth had consented to once more indulge in his great hypnotic art. The public were once again to see how one could be put to sleep and then awakened by such a nonentity as an egg. But lo, he did perform. They saw it once more, but the act was cut short by the hurried departure of Grippeth for Lockhart, where he put on the same show. Then there was the great features, the Girls Pageant, an educated Junior Law. The rest of the performance was made up of sharp shooting, bronc bustin ' and rope throwing. The great Willie Dillingham, who had been three years with Buffalo Bill, entertained the crowd with all the mysteries of rope throwing. He caught the horse and riders, first by one foot and then by the other, until finally he completed the performance by roping a galloping bronc by the tail. j 1914 actus A i fxandeb Frederick Claire and His Rescuers Joe Moore Harry Fritz GJenn Vaugkan Y PEREGRINUS. HIS tradition is peculiar to the University of Texas Law Department. No other law school can boast of such a protege. The early Peregrinus was a creature of equity. Our own Perry is the offspring of the fertile imagination of one, Russell Savage, now of Corpus Christi, but then a senior in our law school. The early Perry was the magistrate who, in the days of ancient Rome, administered justice in disputes where foreigners were concerned. His true cognomen on the pay roll of the City Council, the name he signed to his checks at the Rome First National, and his official title was Praetor Peregrinus. Some twelve years ago Judge W. S. (Colon- el) Simkins was disrobing the beauties of Equity for the benefit of the Senior Class, and he propounded the query as to who was the reason why of this aforesaid Praetor Peregrinus. Now the knowledge as to who. what, or when it was at that time was totally foreign to said M. Savage, but he could draw something else besides conclusions. Then, upon the blackboard, he illustrated his conception of Peregrinus; the figure which ever since, and to the end of time shall be known as our Perry. Thus was the Star of the East born to us and has been borne by us from that time until now. This animal is an abstemious beast, and his chief repast consists only of law books and engineers. He has the tail of a fox, point- ing out his foxiness; the body of a donkey, denoting indomitable determination; the head of a stork, foretelling the generations of lawyers to come; the eyes of an eagle, which shows keenness: the bill of a lawyer, proving his ability. Perry stands for all that makes a man great: Pep, Power, and Pertinacity, proving that in all the history of the world, sacred or profane, the lawyer has been the first man in every breach and the last one to leave it. The Sunflower MANY have wondered why the graduating lawyers on Commencement Day wore a sunflower. We find an antithesis of this flower ' s symbolism in the ideals of these young men. This flower is of the helianthus family, noted for its health-giving powers. It absorbs the germs from the atmosphere. This is also the function of the lawyer in the social community: to clear up the at- mosphere of the social and business world. This flower is the only one which always keeps its face toward the sun. This, also, is the aim and ideal of the true lawyer: to keep his face always toward the light; to direct all of his actions toward justice. This is why the sunflower has been adopted by the men, who have been called to this high profession. It is to express in its beautiful symbolism their ideals of the profession which they believe to be of more value than any other. The law adjusts the machinery of human society, and when confined to its true sphere ol usefulness is an indispensible factor of civilization. The J. A. ' s. P. S. — The appellation customarily applied to the Junior Laws is not a tradition. It is merely a neces- sary, distinctive designation. g Sfr-dfc. f£ 1914 The Escape and Return of Alec F. Claire I HE night before the celebration, which Dean Taylor of the Engineering Department had prepared in honor of himself. Alec F. Claire showed the only gleam of intelligence he has ever been known to exhibit. He communicated his wishes to the lawyers. Funny isn ' t it how people in trouble always seek out the lawyers. Alec told them that he could not stand the embarrass- ment of being bowed to by such a horde of beings as the engineers. Tom Hoover, Captain of the Track Team and quizmaster in law, Grady Niblo, footballer, hammerthrower and champion swiper, Tub- by Matthews, Manager of the Baseball Team all loyal and able Laws were consulted by Alec, who promised an ample fee. These three were accompanied to the Engineering Building by a high powered motor car. After some trifling di was removed from the chains and bars where his alleged friends had him imprisoned. Then followed through the night. Alec was secreted at a farm house, twenty miles from Austin. Here he lived contentment under the watchful care of those, whom his alleged friends call enemies. The contract which bound Alec and his friends did not grow irk- some, but it was only binding for - ' ■ one year. Alec with true engi- neering fidelity fell down on his end of the contract. So he was left to his mercy, for lawyers needs must play fair. He refused to return at the request of the En- gineers, so again the law had to be resorted to, but the heroic En- gineering trio who formed the co- ercion party to bring him home sought the level of the law equal unio themselves and secured the services of a constable, a jackass and a one-horse shay. With these fearful forces he returned.

Knight Stark Young, Coach Ml TWO ANGRY WOMEN OF ABINGTON URTAIN CLUB players on April 16 presented in the Univer- sity Auditorium the only extant play of Henry Porter, The Two Angry Women of Abington. This is an old English (| comedy of the sixteenth century, a play that is easily appre- ciated by all lovers of real classical comedy. There was never a play given in the history of the University that was more enthusiastically received. It far surpassed the Knight of the Burning Pestle, which at the time of its production seemed to be beyond comparison. The whole story of The Two Angry Wom- en of Abington is quarrels of two neighboring housewives, word combats that are the mere overflow of their own hot blood, the dissonance resolved at last in the marriage of their two children. The audience was unconsciously placed in a six- teenth century atmosphere when the curtain rose upon an old English garden scene where men in bright, gaudy waistcoats and women in laces and hooped skirts were busily engaged at the game of Backgammon. The harmonious blend of color in the entire scene showed much study and the results of an artistic talent. The feminine roles were particularly well acted by Messrs. Campbell, Stout and M. Levy. Mr. Stout is the prettiest girl that has ever taken part in any of the plays, and many of the beautiful girls in the audience uttered a sigh of relief when they found he was a man. Much credit must be given to Messrs. Barrel, Culver and English, for they showed much study and originality in the rendition of their parts. The acting as a whole was really remarkable, at no time appearing amateurish, but always professional. The club is deeply indebted to Mr. Stark Young who coached them in the produc- tion of the present play and aided them much in the study and appreciation of the drama. After the presentation in the University Auditorium the club played in Houston, San Marcos, Waco, Sherman, Denton and Dallas. The Two Angry Women of Abington is the sixth play which the Curtain Club has produced. The other plays were: The Silent Woman, given in 1909; The Knight of the Burning Pestle, given in 1910; L ' Avare (The Miser), given in 1911 ; II Ventalgio (The Fan), given in 1912, and The Sole Heir, given in 1913. lilill il I II illliiill i 5 8 1 1914 THE IBIS CLUB Founded at the University of Texas 1918 Member Duval West R.

The club was organized in the early part of this year for the purpose of enlivening the rallies. On the occasion of such rallies the Win- sonians presented original one-act farces which were received with pleasure by the student body. After the football season, the club assumed a more serious com- plexion, and began the study of the early Elizabethan drama. Fort- nightly meetings were held, at which the play which had been as- signed for study, was discussed, and examined with the aid of an efficient dramatic critic. In this way, it was hoped that the inter- est of the members in the drama would be fostered, and a thorough knowledge of the early drama could be obtained. The meetings have been a source of much pleasure to the members and are cer- tainly of much educational value. Mr. Jean Paul Slusser, of the English Faculty, has been ap- pointed as director of the club, and under his efficient guidance the club has progressed with rapid speed. The organization was founded by Mr. A. F. Levy, with the fol- lowing men as charter members : E. V. Hugo, C. M. Adams, S. E. Gordon, F. P. Hibbard, and E. W. Hailey. .U x -V.-CSL- ' Socios de la Ciudad Mrs. Elsie Harthan-Arendt Mrs. Guillermo F. Hall Mrs. William S. Hendrix Mrs. William K. Manning Miss Mary Lou Rogan Miss Elizabeth H. West Miss Lilia M.

I till I I fe m GERMANIA PLAY Die Goldne Spinne (The Golden Spider) HIS year the Germania Literary Society chose for its annual play a four-act comedy, Die Goldne Spinne, by Franz von Schoenthan, a play with a modern setting and which offered unusual oppor- tunities for the rendition of comedy roles to those who took part in _the cast. The first performance was given in the University audito- rium on Monday, evening, April 13, and was enthusiastically re- ceived by both the German students of the University and a good- ly number of the German residents of Austin, who never fail to avail themselves of the opportunity of encouraging the efforts of the Germania Literary Society by their attendance at its annual presentation of a Ger- man play. Heretofore, it has been customary to present the play in New Braunfels, Seguin, Comfort and Fredericksburg, at which places it was always produced successfully. This year Taylor was substituted for Comfort, and the reception of the play by the German residents of Taylor was most encouraging. The cast included twelve roles, all of which were exceptionally well read and showed splendid training on the part of the coach, Professor Karl Muenzinger of the German De- partment of the University. Edward H. Lange of San Antonio was business manager of the play, and the enthusiastic co-operation which he received at the hands of the man- agers of the theaters of the various towns visited was a material factor in making the trip a success.

' £, The track team was unde- feated. The baseball team was a sensation. In the fall the football eleven defeated Sewanee, Oklahoma and Kansas Aggies, and, although the Catholics were invin- cible, gave battle royal to Notre Dame. There was no disputing our right to all three titles in this section of the country. Furthermore, the 1914 basketball team was undefeated, and thus it is the proud duty of this year ' s Cactus to review four championship teams. Here are the records of the big four in compact form : It is almost a waste of paper to repeat the familiar story of ' Varsity ' s gridiron success. The games and scores are as follows: Texas. 14; Polytechnic, 7. Texas, 2 7 ; Austin College, 6. Texas, 7 7 ; Baylor, 0. Texas, I 3 ; Sewanee, 7. Texas, 52; Southwestern, 0. Texas. I 4 ; Oklahoma, 6. Texas, 48 ; Kansas Aggies, 0. Texas, 7 ; Notre Dame, 30. Seven victories; one defeat. And the prospects for another brilliant season are unusually good. The baseball record was almost equally good, and was the more remarkable on account of the unorganized condition of the sport during previous years. Out of a total of 32 games played, ' Varsity won 26; lost 4; tied one, and one was called on account of rain. Fifteen con- secutive games were won, half of which were played on foreign soil. Not a game was lost on the trip. Baseball for 1914 is still an uncertain quantity as the Cactus goes to press, but with practically the same old perfect ma- chine in the field, there is every reason to believe that the season will be successful. An ambitious schedule has been arranged, and the team will take the longest trip in its history, meeting Missouri, Illinois, Oklahoma, Colorado, Louisiana State and Wabash. In track ' Varsity captured everything that came her way. The Southwestern championship was won. The three dual meets with Louisiana State University, Okla- homa A. M., and Oklahoma University were taken. The T. I. A. A. meet was easy, Texas winning 62 points to the combined 64 of her opponents. A number of rec- ords of long standing were shattered. Although ' Var- sity is not a member of the Southern Conference, com- parative records show that Texas has no equal on the cinder path in the South. In the spring of 1914 the Uni- versity received an invitation to participate in the Mis- souri Valley Conference meet. Basketball was easy. A total of eleven games were played; eleven were won. Basketball is gaining every year. On the night of April 11th. Texas demonstrated her superiority over all comers by defeating the strong wrestling team of the University of Nebraska, in the first inter-collegiate wrestling meet in which Texas has ever participated. It was a striking indication of the strength of the Texans in every branch of Athletics. Fred Ramsdell THE RAMSDELL FAMILY. Marshall Ramsdell Charles W. RamsdeU Mrs. Adamson Robert Ramsdell The Ramsdell family holds a truly remarkable posi- tion in the history of athletics at the University of Tex- as. Three brothers and one sister are wearers of the T, and the fourth brother has been prominently con- nected with sports for years. The oldest is Chas. W. Ramsdell, who is at present the Adjunct Professor of American History here at Tex- as. Dr. Ramsdell is not a letter man. He did not try out until his Senior year, when he made scrub center on the football team, and would have been a contender for the ' Varsity the following season had he been a student. Dr. Ramsdell is a member of the Athletic Council, and has been a loyal supporter of all forms of athletics for years. Robert L. Ramsdell, now a practicing physician in Austin, played football on ' Varsity in 1904, ' 05, ' 06 and ' 07. Bob played left tackle, and has a reputation as a fighter. The next, Fred L. Ramsdell, is the best known mem- ber of the group. He entered in ' 04. He won his letter in football, track and basketball. He was Captain of the basketball team and champion in handball. While at Texas Fred shattered several track records. In ' 08 Fred entered Pennsylvania University. He played left half- back on the Penn football team in ' 09 and ' 10, and was picked by a number of sporting editors for Ail-Ameri- can. He also starred on the track for Pennsylvania, winning the 100-yard dash in the American Intercollegi- ates. Fred went to England in the summers of ' 10 and ' 11, winning the British championship in the 100 and 220-yard dashes both years — a double feat that was nev- er done before. He beat Walker, the South African Olympic champion, in the 100-yard dash all over Eng- land. Fred is now one of the principals of Marshall Training School of San Antonio. The youngest of the boys is Marshall. He played football in ' 09, ' 10 and ' 11, captaining the team the last named year. Marshall played at right half in ' 09 and at left tackle the other seasons. He is now studying medi- cine at Galveston. Alice Ramsdell maintained the athletic record of her brothers among the coeds. She played basketball in ' 08, ' 09 and ' 10. She was captain the last year. She is now Mrs. R. L. Adamson of Omaha, Nebraska. The Athletic Council W. T. Mather Chairman E. T. Miller Treasurer L. Theo. Bellmont Ex-Officio Secretary W. J. Disch Ex-Officio J. T. Patterson Chas.

San Marcos was the scene of the camp. Roger ' s resort, on the beautiful San Marcos River, afforded ideal conditions to the thirty-five candidates who reported. Director Bellmont had many attractive offers from other Texas points, but the natural advantages of San Marcos determined the site of the camp. Perfectly ap- pointed for the purpose it served, the squad left San Marcos in the best condition a Longhorn football squad has ever been in. The men were housed in comfortable cottages on the banks of the river. Between the cot- tages and the river a small but beautiful park assisted in keeping the fellows toned up. But the river was one of the great attractions. The swimming pool, with its clear, invigorating water proved one of the greatest stimulants to the squad. The work of the squad was characterized by the care to avoid staleness taken by Trainer Disch and Coaches Allerdice and Rix. There was plenty of hard work, but all of it was of a pleasant nature. In the mornings the squad took a four-mile hike to the field of the San Mar- cos Baptist Academy, where they became adepts in handling the ball, a virtue which was telling during the season. After lunch and a rest another light workout was held. When the day ' s work was done a quiz on the rules of the game was held. There is not a man who was at the training camp but who will affirm that San Marcos has more girls than any other town in the State. The squad was not slow to recognize this fact. If there was any one fea- ture that kept the squad in a good humor it was those selfsame girls. Nobody got a grouch, and even Louie Jordan and Gene Berry were seen with young ladies. The Freshmen were not protected by hazing rules and by the end of the camp they were in the best con- dition of the squad. The success of the camp was due to the plans made by Director Bellmont and Trainer Disch, to the good judgment of Coaches Allerdice and Rix, to the uniform courtesy of the citizens of San Marcos, represented by the secretary of the Business League, and Mr. Rogers, the promoter of the resort, and in addition to all this the constant efforts of Tom Johnson, ' 09, and Louis Dugger, ' 13, both of San Marcos. The squad will re- turn to San Marcos in 1914. !!j ; i 111 ilillll ill!) J!! 111! I III! 1 llliliiii |!i! I; ii! r ; THE SEASON Champions of the Southwest and All-State is All- Varsity epitomize the 1913 football season. It was only after a string of seven consecutive vic- tories, having humbled such teams as Sewanee, Okla- homa and the Kansas Aggies, that the Longhorns suf- fered their one defeat at the hands of Notre Dame. The Catholics won, but not without a hard fight which ended in a score no larger than the one the invaders had piled up against the Army. A magnificent team playing a splendid schedule will make 1913 memorable in football history. It is necessary to go back to the famous undefeated team of 1900 to find a record of equal glory or to reveal such a galaxy of stars in the Texas lineup. The defeat of the Sooners at Houston gave us Southwestern honors. In the State ' Varsity was every- thing. Nine Longhorns secured all-State positions on a composite selection made by various coaches and of- ficials. By winning over Sewanee and literally over- whelming the Kansas Aggies, ' Varsity greatly increased her prestige on the gridiron. But the game with Notre Dame did more than any other one thing to place Tex- as in the limelight in football circles. Followers of the pigskin everywhere were interested in the outcome. When Texas crossed the Blue and Gold line for a touchdown, the apex of ' Varsity ' s most successful season had been reached. The real calibre of the Longhorn squad was not apparent until after the preliminary training camp at Rogers ' Resort near San Marcos was well under way. The absence of seven of the 1912 ' Varsity had cast a gloom over prospects. But the appearance of Daniels, the old T. C. U. captain, and the phenomenal showing made by the Simmons brothers, Carlton, Goodman and Edmonds, as well as by Dittmar and Bass among the Freshmen, rounded out the nucleus of T men who returned into a promising aggregation. By September 24, when the squad had its first workout on Clark Field, the coaches had developed two elevens, either of which seemed worthy of representing ' Varsity. Poly The Longhorns opened the season in a disappoint- ing game with Polytechnic on October 3. The field was wet and the day was hot and sultry. ' Varsity won, 14 to 7, but the winning touchdown did not come until the last two minutes of play. The Longhorns scored first in the sec- ond quarter. With the ball on Poly ' s 22-yard line, Paul Simmons, on the first play, carried it around Poly ' s left end for a touchdown. Barrell kicked goal. Towards the end of the quarter the visitors retaliated by blocking Bar- ren ' s attempted punt and carrying the ball 45 yards for a touchdown. Tandy ' s toe tied the score. For a while matters were evenly matched. ' Var- sity ' s line was weak, while Poly ' s held Texas for downs repeatedly. Costly fumbles by the Longhorns ruined several chances to score. The tie wasn ' t broken until time was almost up. Mur- ray blocked Poly ' s punt, Berry recovering on Poly ' s 3- yard line. Captain Brown carried the ball the remaining distance. Austin College The Longhorns showed marked improvement on October 10 by defeating Austin College 27 to 6. Their attack was aggressive, despite the summer temperature, and the game was replete with fast end runs and beau- tiful forward passes. The line was too strong for the Shermanites, too, twenty-one plunges netting Austin College only 27 yards. The College scored her only touchdown near the end of the game by blocking ' Var- sity ' s kick from behind the goal line. X ! Baylor By October 16, when the Baptists journeyed down to Austin to test their strength, the Longhorn team had been developed into a steady and powerful machine. A sloppy field and a driving rain were insufficient to dampen their ardor. The Longhorns piled up touch- downs at regular intervals in every period of the game until, when the last whistle blew, there was a total of 77 in favor of the Orange and White, while Baylor re- ceived a goose egg. Sewanee After the three preliminary State games the Long- horns were well prepared for the first real test of the season. There was hardly a weak spot to be found in the Allerdice-Rix-Wier machine. The line was solid, and, at the same time, aggressive. The forward pass had been perfected, and the interference used on end runs went like clock work. The Sewanee Tigers came down to Dallas on October 25 from their lair in the lillilililililiililjilll 1 w i !ii III! II! III! ii;i fii= ' tSactws mountains to meet the Longhorns. The defenders of the Purple proved worthy foes and gamely fought to the last minute, but they were outplayed at almost every point and were forced to submit to a 13 to 7 defeat. The scoring occurred in the first and third quarters. After three and one-half minutes of play Daniels ploughed through for the first score, but Barrell failed to kick goal. In less than five minutes Tolley evened the score for Sewanee and then broke it in their favor by kicking goal. The half ended with an advantage of one point for the visitors. There was a half whispered dread that history would repeat itself and that Texas would lose as she did in 1911 because of failure to kick goal. But Daniels again came to the rescue and in the third quarter, receiving the ball on an intercepted for- ward pass, raced 69 yards for the winning touchdown. When Barrell sent the pigskin straight between the posts, pandemonium broke loose among the 10,000 spec- tators. Tolley, the All-Southern quarter, played a phenome- nal game for Sewanee, scoring all their points. He ran his team with rare skill, his punts were well placed, he advanced the ball consistently and fought hard to stave off the defeat that seemed inevitable. For Texas, Daniels, Paul Simmons and Jordan were the obvious luminaries. Goodman, at left guard, tore great holes in the opposing line and broke up many of Tolley ' s trick plays. Bass, a freshman at tackle, showed up well. Cap- tain Brown played his usual strong defensive game. Southwestern In marked contrast with the brilliant exhibition at Dallas, on November 3, the Longhorns defeated South- western in a ragged game by the score of 52 to 0. The playing was slow and uninteresting. Coach Allerdice used almost his entire string of substitutes, and during the second half the Methodists were playing against the second team. Freshman Shelmire got in at quarter and played good ball. Dittmar proved strong at center, and Turner and Malone did good work on end. Oklahoma The climax of the season was reached at Houston. After three successive defeats by the Sooners, the Long- horns met the veteran Oklahoma team at West End Park on November 10. The powerful Sooner backfield, consisting of an aggregation of All-Southwestern stars playing their third year together, was helpless in the hands of the Texans. Oklahoma failed to kick goal, and the final score At no time during the season did Texas ' repertoire of fakes and passes show off to better advantage. The Oklahomans were dazzled by the versatile Texas at- tack. Forward passes, Daniels to Turner, were re- sponsible for both touchdowns. In the first quarter the ball had been carried down the field by two for- ward passes, Daniels to Barrell, and by an end run by Daniels. The next play was a forward pass, Dan- iels to Turner, over the goal line. Brown kicked goal. The second touchdown came in the second quarter by the same forward pass route. Oklahoma likewise scored on a forward pass. In the last period Capshaw executed a perfect pass to Fields, a s ubstitute end, who went 50 yards for a touchdown, was 14 to 6. The first half was easy. Texas had possession of the ball and kept it in Oklahoma territory most of the time. In the last period the Sooners came back stronger, and, by superior punting, managed to shift the playing to the Longhorn ' s end of the field. Every man on the Texas team seemed to star. In the backfield, Daniels, Simmons and Brown eclipsed Reeds, Courtwright and Capshaw, the celebrated Oklahoma trio. The line held like a stone wall. The playing of Ditt- mar, who took the place of the injured Murray, was spectacular. Turner at left end was a sensation. Pete Ed- mond, on the other end, smashed every play that came his way. The linemen broke through and threw the mighty Reeds for a loss repeatedly. Kansas Aggieg The Kansas Aggies were unable to check the Long- horn winning streak when the two teams met for the first time on November 18. The Texans again showed their fondness for wet weather by piling up a 48 to HPUfcviSfc HNP h k ' ' «rfl score in a hard rain. The game was replete with long, broken field runs and sensational dashes around the wings of the Aggies ' defense by Paul Simmons, Barrell and Dan- iels. Captain Brown made many long gains through the line. The feature of the game was a spectacular run by Paul Simmons in the third quarter. Getting loose on an end run, he eluded all the Kansas defense except Quarter- I! on his shoulders after a complete somersault midair, sprang to his feet and sped on untouched for a touch- down. Notre Dame With a string of seven victories to their credit and no defeats to mar their record, superbly coached and drilled into a perfect machine, the Southwestern Champions stood ready on November 27 to test their strength in the great Turkey Day game with the Catholics. Notre Dame on the other hand, had met only one defeat in three years and came to Texas with a record for the season that showed them, by compara- tive scores, the equal of any team in America. It was the West against the South — and the West won. But a score of 30 to 7, even if Texas did receive the little end. was as good as many victories. In the first half the Longhorns fought Notre Dame to a standstill. But in the third and last quarters the Texans weakened before the onslaught of the mighty Eich- enlaub and the fero- cious attacks of the Catholic machine pivoted about Dorais, and were forced to acknowl- edge their first and only defeat for the year. Early in the first quarter Dorais skirted the Texas end for a touch- down, and followed up this lead by kick- ing goal. Texas came back strong, however, and had the edge on the visitors during the remainder of this period. At the very beginning of the second quarter, with the ball near the center of the field, a double pass, Simmons to Daniels to Barrell, was executed, and Bar- ren, in a sensational run, eluded three tacklers and safely planted the pigskin behind the goalposts. A goal by Captain Brown tied the score. During the remainder of the half Notre Dame made a supreme effort to re- cover her lost advantage. After a desperate attempt to carry the ball across the Orange and White goal line. Dorais kicked a field goal from the 15-yard line. The half ended with the score 10 to 7. During the last half of the game it was a different story. ' Varsity could not withstand the terrible batter- ing of the Catholic veterans. Eichenlaub ploughed through the heretofore impregnable Texas line almost at will, dragging the tacklers after him. The crafty Dorais picked holes unerringly and sent his machine crash- ing through. In- deed, to more than any other one thing, ' Varsity owed her defeat to the side- stepping Catholic quarterback His generalship was superb, and his indi- vidual work was little short of marvelous. Captain Rockne, on end, was a sure receiver of the forward pass and a demon on defense. Every member of the Texas team fought hard. Bar- ren was at his best. Simmons played desperately and Daniels worked like a Trojan. Jordan, Dittmar, Carlton and Niblo, in the line, were scrapping for every inch of ground. Turner and Edmond were in the game every The Coaches Wier COACH RIX J. Burton Rix is a worthy mate for Coach Allerdice. His specialty is his personal work with the various players. There is no doubt but that he is the best coach for the individual man in the South. Coach Rix is particularly skilled in the mechanics of football. Rix does not believe in throwing away chances nor in allowing loose playing to spoil any advantage gained. His minute, but their pluck could not match with the skill and experience of their seasoned opponents. The Texans were outclassed. There was no doubt of it after the opening of the second half. But as this one defeat was at the hands of worthy foes, of the high- est standing, it left no sting. The vast crowd left Clark Field in silence, but not in humiliation. With their exit the curtain was rung down on ' Varsity ' s most successful season. shrill motto, Fall on the ball, can be heard in every practice game. He puts an unusual amount of energy in his work, and believes that football is a game for the red-blooded man. COACH WIER Lieutenant Joseph Wier of the Eighteenth Infantry was added to the coaching staff this season to devote his entire time to the development of the line. He was granted a two-months ' furlough, and for this reason was able to take up his coaching duties. Lieut. Wier played on the Army eleven for four years, being captain of the famous team of 1911. He was placed on Walter Camp ' s second All- American at guard. In addition to his coaching of the first team men, Wier devoted much attention to the development of new material. The addition of Lieut. Wier to the coaching staff made it the most complete in this section of the country. COACH ALLERDICE Coach Dave Allerdice rounded out his third and most successful year this season. After two successive defeats at the hands of the Sooners he succeeded in turning the ta- bles this year, and as he has signed a new two-year contract, he will have time to get even — and then some. It was Allerdice ' s wizard-like brain that was responsible for the marvelous array of passes and shifts that were used this season. The Oklaho- mans said they were dazzled — and we do not wonder. liliifi 1914 George made a good Manager. Now that the schedule is made up by the Athletic Council he was relieved of that responsibility, but he de- serves much praise for the shrewd financing ind good executive ability he displayed. In push- ing the season ticket plan, George bore his full share of the burden, and sacrificed his other in- terests to make it a success. Manager Heyer was never too busy to stop his work and accom- modate one. BROWN The captaincy of the football team is the big- gest honor in college, remarked a prominent alumnus of a big eastern school. To captain a team like this year ' s eleven is certainly, to fol- lowers of Texas, the most important achievement of the year. Little Brown was a constituent part of the season ' s success. He was a demon on defense, and his constant plugging never failed to yield the necessary three or four yards on the fourth down. Truly, Texas loses a valuable man in Clark Brown ' s departure. JORDAN Big, jovial Louis Jordan played a stellar game at right guard throughout the season. Speaking of his work in the Sewanee game, Coach Wier said, If he could have played that game in the North or East he would have made All-Ameri- can. It is hard for a line man to get in the limelight, but Jordan never failed to star. He was elected captain of next year ' s team. His sunny disposition, his popularity with his team- mates, and his thorough knowledge of the game, combine to make him a worthy leader of the 1914 ' Varsity. DANIELS Dan spent three good years with T. C. U. before coming to Texas, but he made up for lost time when he arrived. Milt was the most dependable man on the team. He was a terrific line plunger, an adept with the for- ward pass, and a superb broken field runner. Give it to Dan, was the cry in a crisis. He never fumbled or hesitated, and was cool and re- liable in a pinch. Dan has played both his first and last year on the team. Here he comes, Bill. All State and all Southwest. BARRELL Len had to be made to order this year. His regular position is halfback, but when the coaches found themselves at the first of the season with- out a quarterback, they picked out Len as like- ly material. He rose to the occasion and ran the team as though he were a veteran. The punting job also fell on him. Len is very fast and is a splendid open field runner. He plays his last year next season. MURRAY Big Bill Murray played his last game of col- legiate football when the season of 1913 was closed. Bill came to us from Denver University, where he played good football for the Colorado team. This year, in spite of Bill ' s avoirdupois, he frequently brought the stands to their feet by making a flying tackle or negotiating a fift y yard run. During his football career in the University, Murray has succeeded in making All-State and All-Southwestern, and is a worthy successor of Bland, Barclay, and other Longhorn centers. BERRY This is Gene Berry ' s second season in football. He was considerably handicapped this year on account of a bone bruise in his shoulder. He got in most of the important battles, however, and put up a strong fight. He has unusual strength in his shoulders and arms, and is a sure tackier. His long reach makes him an ideal receiver of the forward pass. Gene receives his LL.B. this spring and will be missed from the gridiron an- other year. NIBLO Niblo, the freshman fullback of 1910, played at tackle this season. Nib is a very aggressive lineman. He is quick on his feet and is not afraid to mix in the fray. He showed up at his best in the game against Notre Dame. The Catholics experienced considerable difficulty in getting around his big and powerful frame. Nib is also a track man, and will leave the University with a good athletic record. He grad- uates this year. BIRGE Two years ago the immortal thirteen had in its number one Birge. He was with Texas again this season, not in his former capacity of center, yet as an essential part of Wier ' s line machine. With a good football knowledge of former days it was no difficult task for him to become almost invaluable as guard. Birge was always alert and had a keen power of detecting a play and breaking it up in its very inception. He still has two years to play. LITTLEFIELD Clyde was not able to show up to advantage this year because he was not in good physical trim. He played a strong game at fullback, how- ever, every time he was sent in. He proved in- valuable as a substitute for Daniels, whenever it was found necessary to relieve him or shift him to halfback. Clyde has a long reach and has developed a skill in basketball that made him one of the best forward pass experts in the coun- try. He makes his short basket ball pass and shoots his long spirals with the same unerring accuracy. PAUL SIMMONS Paul ' s spectacular cartwheel plunging will pass for one of the wonders of the world. The Kansas quarterback asked to be remembered as the man that Simmons dived over. Such daring and agili- ty, coupled with great speed, made him ' Varsity ' s best ground gainer. That fool will break his neck, was the half smothered gasp of the grand- stand in every game. Paul is only seventeen years old and is a veritable Youthful Phe- nomenon. As this is only his first year on the team, he has a wonderful future in store for him. GOODMAN Big Goodman played his first game for ' Varsity this year, after two years of apprenticeship with the scrubs. Goodman is a scrapper from the ground up, and can be relied upon to tear a hole in the opposing line. He is a ferocious tackier and doesn ' t believe in handling the runner with gloves. He has a method all his own of hauling his man down and flopping him back so as not to lose any extra distance. He was at his best in the Sewanee game. CARLTON Fatty is a misnomer for big Carlton. He is all sinew, and when he gets in the game he uses every bit of it to advantage. This is Carlton ' s first year on the team. He was in school last year, but did not try out for the squad on account of parental objections. Fatty made good from the jump this year, and played in every game. He will be a tower of strength in the line next season. BASS Every season Texas discovers in its assortment of new material one or two likely candidates for the ' Varsity. The ' Varsity of future years must be composed of just such men. This year was no exception, and of the two stellar frosh, Bass was one. In the Sewanee game, the bulky figure of this freshman could be seen wading through the opposing line even as if no line were there. Bass is one of Wier ' s finds, and in his three years of veteran service should become a great asset in Texas football. EDMOND Texas has never had two better matched ends than Edmond and Turner. Both were playing their first year with ' Varsity this season. They are built alike from head to heel, have the same weight, and follow similar styles of play. Ed- mond has won the nickname of Bulldog Pete on account of his grit and pluck. His two years ' training in the scrub backfield developed a dash and vim. Pete will be back next year. DITTMAR The other freshman to qualify for a letter in football was Dittmar of Houston. The premier center of high school football, it was but natural that he should seek and attain the same distinc- tion while in college. He was probably the best offensive and aggressive center Texas has pro- duced in many years. He was at his best in the Thanksgiving battle. Time and again he could be seen making a vicious tackle many yards from the center ' s usual field of operation. Though a trifle light for his position, Dittmar is fast, ac- curate, and almost uncanny in breaking up plays. TURNER Although Charlie Turner did not get into the game until after the season was well under way, he was a sensation when he hit his stride. He is a skillful receiver of the forward pass and in this way scored both touchdowns against Oklahoma. He is also an expert in the art of spilling inter- ference, and it a good blocker. Charlie will be in the line-up again next season. BOB SIMMONS Bob is on the job every minute. He never loses his feet and gets into every play. Bob keeps his eye on the man with the ball and sel- dom misses a tackle. There is a quick pass be- hind the visitor ' s line, then a streak of orange and white, and the cry goes up, Bob got him. This is Little Simmons ' first year on the team, and he still has three years in which to make a name for himself. Bob was familiarly known as the brown-eyed skunk. BASEBALL Kb VARSITY HASEBALL TEAM Diich. Coach Gambrell Cartwriiht Wintlon Pranci. K Brown Fowler Edmond Mr.r Betti. Bailey II Moore (Capt.) Kelley Him, An leraon C. Brown Ruaaell BASEBALL ILLY DISCH ' S far-sighted planning and oaching after three years ' work with Texas aseball material culminated in T. I. A. A. nd Southwestern champions. Nothing but is efforts could have bridged the gap be- tween the unorganized squad of 1910 and the perfect machine of 1913. Under his efficient direction ' Var- sity put a truly remarkable team in the field. Student interest was awakened in the sport as it had never been aroused before, and in accomplishing this end the sea- son ticket plan had much to do with the final result. The crowds were what are ordinarily considered enor- mous for any athletic contest except a Thanksgiving football game, both grandstand and bleachers often be- ing taxed to capacity. The players never lacked the inspiration of a loyal bunch of rooters. Only four games were lost during the season, and the Longhorns set the novel precedent of winning fif- teen consecutive games, half of which were played away from home. One game was tied and one called on account of rain. A total of thirty-two games were played. No games were scheduled out of Texas, and L. S. U. and Oklahoma A. M. were the only out of State teams that came to Clark Field. But the climax of the season was reached on a trip through the Northern part of Texas. Eight games played, one thirteen in- ning tie and no defeats constitute its story. As the daily results of this series were published in Austin the stu- dent body waxed more and more enthusiastic. The last victory left them in a frenzy that broke loose in an enthusiastic reception for the team on its return and a hilarious night shirt parade in the evening. Although such a record was only made possible by concerted team work, it is no less true that the phe- nomenal success of the team is explained by the work of the individual players. There were several good men available for every position. Bailey, Winston, Cone and Earl Brown made up a truly marvelous pitching staff. The infield, consisting of Joe Kelley, Tom Gam- brell, Charlie Francis and Herb Massey, was almost per- fect. Later in the season Pete Edmond broke into this charmed circle. Anderson and Clark Brown proved to be two of the steadiest catchers in the State, and Moore, Cartwright and Fowler covered the gardens. Clark Brown led the team in hitting, with .383 — truly a major league clip. Russell and Edmond also batted above .300. Russell and Winston fielded error- less ball, and Anderson handled 313 chances, with only four bobbles, giving him an average of .987.

THE SOUTHWESTERN CHAMPIONS COACH DISCH The cause of ' Varsity ' s present position in baseball in Texas may be summed up in two words — Billy Disch. Never too opomis- tic nor overconfident, but always planning for the future, he has developed a championship nine out of the chaos which prevailed when he took charge. Disch is also trainer in football and assistant director of athletics, and has the confidence and friendship of every- one who comes in contact with him. Coach Disch has been with the University for four seasons. MOORE Herbert Moore not only lived up to his skill of former seasons on the dia- mond, but proved to be a good leader and a captain who kept his club full of life and pep. A great part of the praise that is bestowed upon the Championship Longhorn team must go to Herb Moore because of his capable leadership. Herb closed his college baseball career by fielding and running bases in his usual splendid form. CARTWRIGHT When Bick Cartwright ' s pitching arm went back on him in early spring practice, Coach Disch sent the tall hurler to the right edge of the outer works. Cartwright as a pitcher had shown that he was a good hitter and his place in the outfield was soon nailed down through his ability to hit. His batting average for the sea- son was .264. He led the hitters in triples, making five three base hits during the season. a MANAGER BETTIS Manager K. K. Bettis was one of the most loyal and enthusiastic base- ball fans ever at the University. His interest never fagged, and he render- ed the sport inestimable service dur- ing his stay here. He was closely identified with the game throughout his college career, and his tenure as Manager was the climax of his valua- ble work for baseball. Bettis received his LL.B. in June. KELLEY Joe Kelley proved to be just as good a first baseman as he was in his freshman year the season before, and as a result the big Irishman was Disch ' s choice for the first station last season. Tall, rangy, with a good reach and a big stretch, Kelley is ideally built for a first baseman. He is one of Disch ' s heavy artillery men, being one of the heaviest long-range hitters on the club and a good clean- up man. mm!! ill iii ' im i!i! 1914 ' (Sacks t 1 } ANDERSON This made Tilden Anderson ' s sec- ond year on the team, and it has been many days since ' Varsity has had a catcher that was of as much value to her pitchers and as much terror to the opposing base runners as Ander- son. Tilden is just as steady as a clock and is a dependable man at all times to have at the receiving end 01 the battery. RUSSELL Joe Russell would no doubt have held his second base job if misfortune had not overtaken him. Joe was crip- pled throughout most of the season with a bad ankle and was able to par- ticipate in but eight games. During these eight games he hit .321 clip and fielded faultlessly. BAILEY Dick Bailey proved to be the pitch- ing sensation of the season. He was almost a certain bet on his own game, and he was often called upon for res- cue work. In many games he was practically unhittable and he held the greater number of the opposing teams he faced to scoreless innings and few and scattered hits. He was Billy Disch ' s Mathewson. Hoss Winston served his first year on the baseball team last season. The big fellow ' s chief difficulty was his wildness, but he gradually over- came this and when he had his bend- ers under control he was practically unhittable. His fast, high curve made many batters turn back. Hoss was at his best on the trip, when he won several games for Texas. His com- ing in at the critical moment was what made the trip a success. EARL BROWN Earl Brown was the only southpaw on Disch ' s string of pitchers. Brown was handicapped in early season by being in poor physical condition, but later when he put on weight he pitch- ed superb ball. He was of great value to the team on the record-making trip by turning in a pair of splendidly pitched games. C ONE This was Cone ' s second year on the team and the tall hurler showed the same speed and quick breaking curves that he did in his freshman year. His record for the season was good and still better things are expected of him for the season ' Varsity is beginning as The Cactus goes to press. Cone, like Winston, is a right hander and has a good head, is cool, and possesses a wicked fast one. CLARK BROWN The left field position was every bit as well fortified as were the right and center field berths. Coach Disch was fortunate in having two splendid outfielders and hard hitters in W. C. Brown and Jerry Fowler available for the position; thus completing a strong, well-balanced and hard-hitting outfield combination with a spare man for the utility role. Little Brown was used as left fielder and catcher an d filled both positions with credit. He showed up better in the outfield, his favorite position. FOWLER Jerry Fowler would be looked upon as the regular for the left field posi- tion, as he played in most of the games at this position. Fowler was a good fielder, a good hitter, and pos- sesses a superb throwing arm that caught many a base runner that at- tempted to advance an extra base on hits to left field. On the other hand, Jerry is a daring and successful base runner himself. GAMBRELL Tom Gambrell was the man that Disch experimented with for an in- field position when it became evident that there was such an abundance of good outfield material. Gambrell filled the second base in good style when it is considered that he was originally an outfielder. Tom is not a graceful fielder, but is fast as a streak. He led the team in base steal- ing, pilfering thirty-eight bases dur- ing the season. His greatest value to the team, however, was his hitting, for he hit like a fiend all the season. Charlie Francis proved to be a valu- able utility man. His regular position was short stop, where he had played the season before, but he covered third base in splendid fashion when Edmond became crippled. Francis is a splendid fielder and goes after all sorts of ugly chances — and usually lands them too. He has a good throw- ing arm also. MASSEY Herb Massey was the only fresh- man to make the team, but he cer- tainly broke in with a vengeance Massey was the fastest man on the team, and he covered a world of ground at short stop and was a dan- gerous man for the enemy when on bases. Mike is a left handed hitter and being second man up, with Gam- brell ahead of him and Cartwright following him, gave the team three good left handed hitters at the top of the batting list. EDMOND Pete Edmond made his first bid foi baseball honors last season, and by virtue of his ability to hit and hit hard was given the call for the third base position. Pete was just beginning to hit his fastest pace and was playing excellent baseball when an injury to his leg forced him to quit for the re- mainder of the season. Up to the time of his injury he was hitting at a .304 clip. He will be available for this season ' s team and will no doubt show the same form in his hitting. Ill ill! i ill illiill THE 1913 TRACK SEASON | HE second time in succession the track team went through the season without a defeat, winning the four meets entered without difficulty, and capturing the State and Southwestern championships. Fur- thermore, the dope showed Texas easi- ly to be the superior of any team in the South. Although ' Varsity could not claim the Southern title because she is not a member of the Conference, there is no doubt but that she could have taken the championship meet at New Orleans. This conclusion is based on two di- rect comparisons: First, the fact that Louisiana won the Conference meet by four points, while Texas had defeated her earlier in the season by a score of 80 to 45 ; and, secondly, on the records made by the Texas team during the season and those made at the Southern meet. The title to the Southwestern championship was cinched by the defeat of Louisiana State University, Ok- lahoma A. M. and Oklahoma University in three dual meets. The L. S. U. Pelicans succumbed on Clark Field by a score of 80 to 45. The visitors won only three first places, in the 100-yard dash, the shot put and the pole vault. ' Varsity next met and defeated Okla- homa A. M. at Stillwater, Oklahoma, by a score of 67 to 50. Two days later the team went to Norman, Oklahoma, to meet Oklahoma University. The Soon- ers gave the Longhorns quite a scare, and the outcome was in doubt until Morgan Vining stretched his frame a quarter of an inch further, winning the broad jump by a distance of 21 feet S x Z inches, and gave the meet to ' Varsity. ' Varsity walked away with State honors at the Te x- as Intercollegiate Athletic Association meet at Brown- wood, the scores being: Texas, 62; Daniel Baker, 37; Baylor, 26; Southwestern, 1. There were six T. I. A. A. records broken. Berry of Texas broke the State record in the discus throw, Ponder of Baylor broke the 220-yard record, Coley of Daniel Baker broke the record in the 111 lllllll Hill lillilllllllllll ' Hr r ' £$? wF 6l i M: high jump, Vining of Texas broke his old record in the broad jump, Niblo of Texas broke the record in the hammer throw and Mathis of Texas lowered the mile record. Despite this showing, the Texas men were not up to their standard on account of two facts: First, they knew that the meet was won before they left Aus- tin; and, secondly, the track was so bad that the men could not show up at their best. During the 1913 season many records of long stand- ing were shattered. Niblo broke State, Southwestern and Southern records for the hammer throw by a toss of 137 feet 8 J 2 inches, in the Stillwater meet. This record was formerly held by Parrish and had stood since 1901. Berry likewise showed a reckless disregard for all Southern records, and put in a bid for Nation- wide fame, by hurling the discus 126 feet 6 inches, in the meet with Oklahoma University. In the Stillwater meet Ralph Mathis smashed the mile record by 4:42 4-5 time. Vining was uniformly successful in the broad jump. A comparison between the T. I. A. A. records as re- vise d for 1913 and the records made in intercollegiate meets by the Texas team shows that members of the Texas team tied one and bettered seven of the T. I. A. A. records. Under the able coaching of Carl C. Taylor there is little doubt but that several other new records will be set up another season. In dual meets Texas won 201 points to her oppon- ents ' 149. In the State meet she won 62 points: her opponents combined won 64. Twenty men won points for Texas in 1913. The individual point winners are: Hoover, 46 ; Mathis, 39 ; Berry, 34; Littlefield, 28; Niblo, 29; Vining, 23; Matthews, 14; Stanley, 13; Hamil- ton, 12; Jordan, 8; Adams, 7%; Griffin, 4 4; Massey. 3; Leonard, 3; Scurlock, 2 1 ' z Bain, l l A ; Buddy, 1%; Good- man, 1 ; Fleming, 1 ; Morris, 1. Total number points 263. Although suffering from a strained tendon through- out the year, Captain Hoover was the largest individual point winner for his team. He served two years as cap- tain, and leaves the University bearing a reputation as one of the greatest track men that ever trod the cinder path on Clark Field. 1 ft.

Gene Berry, Captain-elect for the 1914 team, has undergone meteoric develop- ment into one of the best weight men the South and Southwest has produced in recent years. The discus is his best event. He holds the record by a throw of 123 feet which he made in the Okla- homa meet of the past season. He al- ways places well up in the hammer and shot, also. Our prediction is that Gene is not through smashing records. MATHIS Mathis in the mile and half-mile was one of the finds of the season, and the little freshman showed marvelous form in both events during the season. He hung up a record of 4.41 flat for the mile last season and ran the half in 2.04 2-5 in the Oklahoma A. M. meet. He is ex- pected to be one of the stars of the 1914 team, judging from the way he has de- veloped during one year. Bill Stanley started out with the track team as a fairly good pole vaulter; he kept working away with the long rod and before the track season was over Bill had improved fifty per cent. He did 10.6 several times last season in meets and has done better than that in practice several times. Coach Taylor says he will be going eleven feet and better this season. ADAMS Chesley Adams throughout the whole season was a dependable man in the sprints and always good for a fast quar- ter in the relay. Many was the second and third place that he copped for ' Var- sity in the meets of last season. Ches is improving rapidly, too, and much can be expected from him in 1914. VINING Morgan Vining was another clean-up man on the team. He regularly copped first place in the broad jump. He holds the State record at 21 ft. 3 3-4 in., and his best mark is 22 ft. 1 in. This was Vining ' s last season on the track team and he certainly made a strong finish in his jumping. He leaves school a letter man in three major sports, besides. iillililil! m m ) MATTHEWS Matthews was Varsity ' s premier high jumper last season. The big fellow topped off 5 feet 8 inches regularly and scarcely ever failed to place He will be back next year and there is no reason why he won ' t show further improvement. Matthews has an easy way of sliding over the bar that is strictly his own and never fails to bring cheers from the stands and wonderment from the op- posing team. HOOVER In Captain Tom Hoover the ' Varsity track team had one of the greatest and most widely known sprinters that the Southwest has seen since the days of Fred Ramsdell. Hoover ran the 100, 220, 440, and the last quarter in the relay in practically every meet a ' Varsity track team has been entered in the last four years, and the little speed marvel has piled up about as great a point-total as any one man has done in the history of ' Varsity track teams. NIBLO Grady Niblo has been one of ' Varsity ' s dependable weight men for the past three years. He was stronger than ever with the hammer and shot in 1913. A toss of 137 ft. 8 1-2 in. gives him the record in the hammer throw. Niblo will be back for the 1914 season. LITTLEFIELD Clyde Littlefield comes to us from Marshall Train- ing School, where he starred in the hurdles in prep meets, and he has continued his winnings in these events since entering college. Tall and rangy and with a good stride, Littlefield is easily one of the best hurdlers in the Southwest and Coach Taylor is confident that Littlefield will set a new mark in one or both of the hurdles the coming season. ) y HAMILTON Charlie Hamilton is Littlefield ' s mate in the hurdles and ' ' Hammy showed a great deal of class during the last track season. In the Louisiana meet he set a new State record for the high hurdles, clipping off the event in 15 flat. Hamil- ton proved to be the fastest high hurdler in the State. He will be back for an- other season during 1914. MANAGER DAUGHERTY Daugherty was a capable and hard working manager. A great deal of the success on the trips was due to his executive ability. He gave a great deal of attention to the welfare of the individual men and to their condi- tion. COACH TAYLOR For the third consecutive year, Coach Taylor has trained the track athletes, and his success has been uniformly phenomenal. It has been such a long time since his men have lost a meet that track enthusiasts have ceased to marvel. To Taylor ' Varsity Track owes much.

IN CtoLLAS THE 1913 INTERSCHOLASTIC MEET HE third annual interscholastic track meet was held on Clark Field on the afternoons of Friday and Satur- day, May 2-3. The preliminaries were run off on Friday, and the final contests came on Saturday. The meet was unusually close. In the high school division Houston nosed out a victory over Marlin, although the latter won the greater number of firsts. St. Edwards was victorious in the academy division. Mar- shall Training School was a strong contender for the flag, and the championship rested entirely on the winning of the relay race by St. Eds. A total of two hundred and forty-eight athletes entered the preliminaries. This number included a number of real stars. Prudhomme, of St. Edwards, was the individual star of the academy series. He won three firsts and one third place, besides practically winning the relay for his team. In the high school division honors were more evenly distributed. Betts, of Marlin, and Prentice, of Brownwood both captured two firsts, while Stevens, of Co- manche, was the highest point winner, with one first, two seconds, and one third. It is interesting to note that the majority of the high school records were better than those set by the academies. Niday, of Houston High, set a new interscholastic State record in the pole vault, inches.

BASKETBALL FOR 1914 HE Basketball Team received a clean slate. The team went through the season of 1914 without a defeat, thus annexing to the track, baseball and football victories ' Varsity ' s fourth con- secutive championship. Although no games were played out of Texas, every State team was clearly outclassed. Un- der the coaching of L. Theo. Bellmont, the best that was in the individual players was brought out and ex- cellent team work was developed. A total of eleven games were played, the Longhorns running up 443 points to their opponents ' 196. The students evinced a keen interest in basketball throughout the season, and the sport for the first time more than paid for itself. The games that were played at home were well attended, and the yell lead- ers never failed to organ- ize the spectators into an enthusiastic rooting squad. Satisfactory arrangements could riot be made for in- door courts, so all the Austin games were played on Clark Field. The season opened at Austin with the San Marcos Baptist Academy as an offering. It was a rather warm day, but the Longhorn forwards showed considerable pep and succeeded in scoring 39 points to the visitor ' s eleven. The next game with St. Eds was an easy vic- tory. Texas had the game from the outset, the final score being 34 to 18. The first real game was played on Clark Field against Decatur Baptist Academy on January 28. A large crowd was present to cheer the players despite the threatening weather. At times the Baptist boys show- ed flashes of form that completely outclassed ' Varsity. After a hard fight Texas won, 25 to 17. On Feb. 2 a new machine met Southwestern. The Methodists were easy victims, 46 to 20. The Baylorites were the next victims. In a poorly played contest the Baptists lost 51 to 14. One of the most interesting games of the season was played between ' Varsity and an aggregation of all-stars. It was fast and snappy from start to finish, and the fighting spirit was always evident. The second half was a veritable football scrimmage. The all-stars, which consisted of Taylor, McVeigh, Ettlinger, Rix and Met- zenthin, lost out 25 to 19. 1914 ' t actuts BASKETBALL FOR 19H-Continued Next came the trip. The team left on the morning of Feb. 13 and played Baylor that afternoon. In a game that was full of action ' Varsity won, 53 to 19. The next day the team met Poly at Ft. Worth. It was an uphill fight and ' Vars ity won, 34 to 25, only by superior team work. The team then journeyed to Denton to play the North Texas State Normal. This proved to be the most exciting contest that was played. The final score was 34 to 24. The members of the team were given an enthusiastic reception in Denton and were treated cor- dially during their stay. There were a thousand spec- tators at the game. The C. I.

EDMOND Whether playing football, baseball, or basketball, the redoubtable Pete is a terror to his opponents. He has a repu- tation as a guard throughout the State, and justly so. His dogged scrapping m the pinches never failed to bring cheers from the stands. Pete captained the team well this year and will be back in the line-up again next season. LITTLEFIELD Clyde started the season at forward, where he made good at shooting goals. Later he was shifted to center in order to complete Coach Bellmont ' s scheme for team work. Clyde ' s height and the length of his arms enabled him to over- top his man and give his teammates the start with the ball. He was unanimously elected captain of next year ' s team. MANAGER EASTLAND Where is the man who does not know Herman ' s smiling face? His genial dis- position alone was sufficient to insure that he would make a successful man- ager. This fact, coupled with his experi- ence in managing summer baseball teams, and supplemented by a great deal of pep, supplied the required combina- tion. ROSS Grady was the premier goal-tosser of the season. Although he was out last year, he experienced no difficulty in get- ting back into his old time form. Alert to every opportunity, he had a sly way of getting a hold on the ball when all others failed; and he was loath to turn it loose again until, by twisting and dodging, he had landed it in the basket. II.;!!: ill H 3- W7 ■■ ' «,■ COACH BELLMONT L. Theo. Bellmont, the new Athletic Director, made an efficient and popular coach for basketball. He comes to us from the Houston Y. M. C. A., where he placed the physical department on the highest plan of efficiency. Bellmont is a University of Tennessee man. He made a record there as an all-round athlete. DITTMAR Ditt had a teasing way of reaching up and seizing the ball just as it was about to descend into the clutches of an eager forward. His reach, weight, and speed combined to make him a real- ly formidable guard. Dittmar played consistently in every game of the season. He is only a freshman and is playing his first year on the team. LEGGETT Leggett showed up to best advantage in the game against the San Marcos Bap- tist Academy. He filled his pivotal posi- tion well and in addition threw a large share of the baskets. His height makes him an ideal center. The lean, lanky form of Cary Leggett will be missed on the courts next winter. BUDDY Buddy glides about unostentatiously from place to place on the court, but he is always to be found at the spot where needed most. He mixes in where the fight is waxing warm and slips the ball away. His distance throws were th- teature of several of the contests. Ed is a Senior Academ this year, and played his last basketball this year. This is his second year on ' Varsity. m i !! I I illilP! V JtJL. TENNIS University Championship Tournament. For the third consecutive year Gillespie Stacy H ™ won the championship in singles at the regular BL A University meet. The preliminaries were run off % yv 1 during the first week in May, Hugh Potter win- ning. He was defeated by the title holder in three out of four sets. L Perkins and Potter defeated Broad and g F Geisecke in the doubles finals, and challenged Stacy and Boggs, the title holders. Stacy and wJmTn Wh p ' on Boggs won in three straight sets. Girls ' Tournament. In the University Championship Tournament for Girls, the singles championship was won by Katherine Wells. After win- ning the finals on the preliminaries she defeated Dorothy Dens- more, the title holder. The doubles championship was won by Katherine Wells and Dorothy Densmore. Genevieve Rix and Lena Pettit were defeated in the doubles. Novice Tournament. Y. Q. McCammon won the Novice Tournament championship for 1913. The doubles were taken by McCammon and Jones. Tennis Managers, 1913-1914. Manager J. L. Thomas Assistant Manager Avery Summerfield Assistant Manager Stephen Dodd Slate Intercollegiate Meet. The State Intercollegiate Meet was held at Georgetown. Texas was represented by Perkins and Potter, Stacy and Boggs being declared ineligible by the faculty on account of being special students. The first meet was rained out, but Texas went back and won everything. Perkins and Potter won the doubles in straight sets from Baylor and Southwest- em. Potter walked away with the singles uiilespie Stacy , ■ . . . , , Smile Ch.mpion championship. winning a handsome IN 1913 trophy. He defeated Perkins of Texas in the finals. The State Meet for 1914 will be held at the University of Texas on May 15 th. T. D. Broad is manager of the State Intercollegiate Tennis Associa- tion, and will have charge of the arrangements here at Aus- tin. Annual Invitation Tournament. The Annual Invitation Tour- nament was held about the middle of May, a number of prominent out-of-town players participating. The University players carried off the honors. Stacy and Rix met in the finals for the singles championship, Stacy winning, three to one. The doubles were won by Stacy and Boggs, who defeated Pen- ick and James in three out of four sets. Gulf States Meet. On May 1 Perkins and Potter represented the University at the Gulf States Intercollegiate Championship at New Orleans. Eight Southern colleges were represented. Texas secured second place in the meet. Tulane took first place in both the singles and doubles. L. S. U. came out third. Both Potter and Perkins were somewhat handicapped by the turf courts, as neither had ever played on them before. Both won prizes in the nature of tennis equipment and loving cups. Oklahoma Wins S. W. Championship. On May 24 Oklahoma came to Austin to play for the South- western championship. Darrough and Monnett. the Sooner rep- resentatives, defeated Potter and Perkins and carried away the honors. Oklahoma took three out of five sets. Darrough of Oklahoma, captured the title in singles, Both Perkins and Pot- ter defeated Monnett. Hogg and Stacy Double Champion SOCCER 1914 OCCER has received the approval of the spec- tators in the grandstand, but it is still regard- ed as a novelty. The members of last year ' s team were back on the job again with greater skill, and a few new recruits were added. T. W. Pow- ell, a Junior Law student, registered from South Wales, served as coach. Powell is a native of England and has played with some of the best professional British teams. The first intercollegiate soccer game ever played in this section of the country was played at Waco between Texas and Baylor on Feb. 20, 1914. Texas won, 8 to 0. The Baptists had in their line-up a number of expert players who were native Brazilians. A return game was matched on Clark Field on March 14. Texas again won, 2 to 1. Baylor had a reorganized team and new tactics, tLA . ibm. and put up a stiff fight. The Baptists were the first to score, and kept the Longhorns on the defensive in the first half. The game was played with two halves of 45 minutes each, with 10 minutes ' intermission. Seven hundred spectators witnessed the game, and none of them left before the referees called time. Soccer is winning a place among Texas sports rap- idly. Besides Varsity ' s, there will be teams put in the field next year by Baylor, Southwestern, and Rice Insti- tute. Ches Adams was Captain of this year ' s team, and Beauford Jester was manager. The line-up in the last Texas-Baylor games was as follows : Hoddle, Goal; J. Burney, Griffin, fullbacks; Zinn, Robertson, Dean, halfbacks; Garth, Haynes, Hamilton, Harwood, forwards. Illlli mi 11 III ill ill Wll ' l!! ' ! WRESTLING jRESTLING has risen to the position of a prominent University, and almost an inter- collegiate sport. Other colleges have become interested and have sig nified their desire to meet Texas on the mat. A tourney was held at the Y. M. C A. auditorium on Saturday, February 29, 1914, for the University championships. There were four bouts. Berry won the heavyweight match; Turner the welterweight; Smith the lightweight, and Giles the featherweight. A good crowd witnessed the contests. The climax of the match was the bout between Giles and Bradfield for the featherweight championship. In the first round Bradfield took the count after 17 min- utes. The second fall went to Giles in 11 min. 49 sec. Giles was declared the winner, and was awarded a ' ' T for his work. Turner and Somerville had an interesting bout. The first fall went to Turner in 3 min. 7 sec. on a torture hold. The second was nip and tuck, but it ended with the fall in favor of Turner after 10 min. 10 sec. Smith experienced little difficulty in defeating Dudley for the lightweight title, and Berry easily outclassed Taylor for heavyweight honors. Oil HI BOXING This year saw the introduction of boxing among the minor sports at the University. At the beginning of the Fall Term Reno Eichenrocht, a special student, was engaged to organize box- ing classes, to which upperclassmen were eligible. Two classes of about twenty each were formed to meet three times a week. The men were drilled in the fine points of the art, and were given con- siderable practice in sparring. Several pupils attained considerable proficiency. Although Eichenrocht left school about the middle of the Winter Term to accept a newspaper position in Chi- cago, and the classes were left without a coach for a while, they did not disband, but continued to meet regu- larly for practice. It is the purpose of the Athletic Council to procure a regular instructor for another year. Reno Eichenrocht Boxing Instructor The manly art of self defense is no longer considered a sport for professional jugheads, but is very popular in all the leading universities of the country. Some of the underclassmen in the University have developed a remark- able proficiency in this scientific sport. It is the dream of some to bring to the University such masters of boxing as Corbett and Moran — gentlemen as well as fighters. Boxing and fencing are two pastimes which are rapidly making headway in the public estimation. In a year or so it is highly probable that fencing will have made its advent into the University sportdom. Sparring Scene fl ' fy J S Zi BOXING CLASS l!lll!ll!!llll!ill!ll!!lll!l! GYMNASIUM WORK |N account of the lack of equipment, there has been very little interest in gym work this year. However, a team of twenty-four men, under the leader- ship of Captain Broad, has worked out with a fair degree of consistency and has in view a public exhibition in the Spring Term. A T will be awarded the winner of the great- est number of points. Freshman gym has attracted unusual at- tention during the past session. Director Bellmont has transformed Physical Training from a drudgery into a pastime. He has been introducing the elements of play and Capt. Broad competition into the work as a substitute for stiff calisthenic drills or other equally me- chanical exercise. The classes are well or- ganized and well balanced. Keen rivalry has been developed by a series of contests. In- terest has been stimulated and better results have been accomplished than ever before. Al- most every week the Freshman classes par- ticipate in match games. After a series of preliminaries and finals the champion class and individual are determined in that par- ticular sport. Soccer ball, basketball, wrest- ling, boxing, cross-country running, indoor baseball, handball, gymnastic work, and re- lay races have all had their turn. 14 f aaji ■m. s  WOMEN ' S ATHLETICS O-ED athletics comprise basketball, tennis, swimming and the regular gym- nasium exercises, which culminate in an annual Spring pageant. This year the pageant was given on Clark Field, the night of April 6, with over four hundred participants — all members of the Freshman and Sophomore classes. Six of the classes costumed to represent the six countries — Sweden, France, Italy, Russia, Greece and America — gave dances characteristic of same, and the other two classes gave aesthetic dances— The Golden Butterfly and The Fire- fly. Misses Gertrude Wueste, Rosa Staroff, Roxie Weber and Maud Jane White were the so- loists. This Gymnasium Pageant is the crowning event of the year in the Woman ' s Gymnasium. The basketball season began early in the fall, and closed at the end of the Winter Term. One game was lost during the season to the girls from Southwestern. The Seniors won the champion- ship in the interclass games. Players winning T ' s this year were: Lydie Grabow, Stella Hemphill, Louise Megee and Lena Pettit. Tennis was played throughout most of the ses- sion, those winning T ' s in the tournament be- ing Katherine Wells and Dorothy Densmore, doubles, and Katherine Wells, singles.

THIS IS NOT THE ICE FACTORY. OH, HOW I HATE YOU. The Mad Turtle Club is a new tea drinking club, which is com- posed of Betas, Gink Holland, and several other high school boys. The morals of the University have fallen to such an extent that these upholding men (One Dollar, please) feel that a change should come about from the drinking of fire-water and muscal to the gentle bever- age of the Chinese. It is with great regret that the German Club, Cotillion Club, Arrowheads, Rattlers, Anglers, and Rabbit ' s Foot hear of the approach of such a furious organization. We sincerely hope that they are faster than their mad name indicates, but how can any- thing be fast with Betas in it? No doubt Dick Fleming will be glad to see such an organization promoted, for it will give him ample ground to display some of his movements of the toe which he learned whil- attending dancing school (Fleming says he did not go but twice). O! Gink, thou dismal, dazzling creature of existence, do you think that the German Club will turn turtle at the presence of Holland? On with the Dutch. Hither, Foolkiller, here comes Beckner of Betas. BEHOLD THE PANHELLENIC! Creature of the Grecians and pro- pelled forward by the lingering, but sleek-headed, men of the Faculty, thou art indeed of a deliriously humorous kind. Conceived of the brain of our elders; applauded begnidgingly by the sweaty hand of Alaric, and born midst the groveling and swearing bodies of all Fraternities — yours was an appearance borne onward with the screaming strains of gloomy music. The hearts of the onlookers were filled with dreadful awe and the public gaped apace at the terrible and sickening penalties to be ex- acted for the abusing of its codified regulations. And so the summer passed and came the sweet autumn. And all members of the Freshman Class looked about them and saw the bashful men of the Fraternities standing back and gazing on them with wistful eyes — and yet none approached to pay the car fare and the ice cream soda that tickled the palates of the curious Frosh. All seemed respectful of the new born rules and did whisper secretly of puny viola- tions and the awful consequences awaiting the transgressors. And lo! Nothing happened that amounted to a dern. Some of the higher order of the Grecian sat back in a conservative manner and looked not at the fool- ish Fresh but on the rules as set down — and their righteousness was pun- ished. The weak and feeble brained of the anemic of intellect that hid themselves beneath the folds of Frat besought themselves by divers and sundry means to become acquainted with the new bunches which they did. And filth and dirt accumulated around the fiery words en- graved on the stones of Decency and Truth and Reason fled in shame, cowering from the brickbats and mud so wisely flung by the sweet- faced darling of the heart of Beta, Francis. Hell was loose in the Bowery! The slums were waging war — and be- hind the charging geese of Beta roared the tick-infested cattle of S. A. E. and all was a glorious mess and the fair minded were seen to smile light- ly and look towards the Pan Hel for action — and there was none. And the day waxed into night and the scenes of old were reenacted. The Frosh were sought far and wide and extended invitations — to take effect later — and the rushing swung into a full run and bore down on the flee- ing forms of Truth and Reason and trampled them into the mud and slime — and they died. Long since the thumbs of the Patrician had been held cruelly down and the stone-headed Fury of the Wrong had plunged the sharp blade deep into the beating heart cf Order — and then somebody kicked out the lights. When in Rome — don ' t let them slip anything by you— do as the rest — which was done! Across the sloping hill of the Past stretched the shadow of Decency as she slowly moved over and beyond.

This is the concluding paragraph of an article that is considerably peeved over the fact that nine young men in the gradua- tion class of the university had been notified they had failed, and fail- ed ingloriously, to pass the examinations, and thus had forfeited their right to re-enter their classes and obtain their diplomas.

Bring on the female fool killer! A SOJOURN AMONG THE FRATS Be it known that on the seventh day, I came unto a strange place, because of which I marveled much and baring my head I stood in frenzied awe and heard the beating of my heart as though it was a sewing machine. The inhabitants thereof swarmed over the place as if a busy bunch of ants that must live and work to do so with a— which is in itself a blame nuisance— eh wot? Kind passerby, upon inquiring inquiry informed me that it was the University of Texas— which I was to understand was a swell doings and much good time was to be had by all contending— which tickled the soft spots of my thought engine and I so with registered myself and gave up my freedom the ensuing nine months. Thus I became here and er — nowhere else. And as I gazed about me in imposed thought exercises, I perceived upon the far horizon a dirty swarm of something that was fast drawing towards me and things. Hastily placing my goodly purse in my dirty sock, I made myself ready for their oncoming. Again a sweet passerby helped me with useful information— They are fraternities and careful of your actions that you might be crummed. And they approached with oily movements and I soon smelt of their presence, and lo! the smell were as the languages at the Tower of Baby- lon incident — for they all differed muchly and some were very awful, and some were worse. And as they swept abreast of my cringing form they seemed to divide for conferences, and from afar a curious member of what I since learned was a faculty person, hurriedly overtook them, and gathering them about him, he whispered things in their listeners — at which they waxed mad and growled much and kicked each other even as a mob of peeved horse radish, and much was the discontent. And they came nearer, but stood at a great distance and waved their arms and threw jectures out of which I could make no reason of any kind or otherwise. And presently they searched among their pockets and scribbled much upon them and forewith handed the result to their king — or whoever the duck was that had sat upon them and commanded to stop in their furious onslaught upon carcass — which they had done with so much eclat. And there approached in answer to many hails, a messenger of the U. S. mail and he collected from among the individual bunches that com- posed the mess, a large packet of dope which they eagerly pressed upon him, and some even forgot the postage stamp which I had to pay for. And presently there came unto me the said messenger and piled upon my form the cargo of messages which I placed in my pocket with depre- ciating gesture and forthwith repaired myself to the confines of my boarding house which I had lately commenced buying upon the install- ment plan — except that I didn ' t get the house when I finished my pay- ments. And there came the time when the street coneveyance reached my corner and I alighted and repaired myself up the winding stairs and suc- cumbed upon my pallet and composed myself for much bored time and ill feelings that just must come from reading such truck. And there were many and I counted them to be of the number of sixteen — which is a great many. Investigation proved that they were all the same— except with different funny and funnier names that sounded so foolish to me. And I placed them all in the bottom of my trunk and donning my best apparel, proceeded out among the hoi poiloi to find out what each one meant in itself and why. Feeling like I perhaps needed some exercise of some kind, I donned a striking walking suit and went for a walk. And lc I I went some dis- tance and came before a wondrous house, at which I did stop and cast my peepers at. Ah, ha! I conclude, it is one of those fraternity houses that bother me so much. Ach, such a wonderful building, such a nice structure, the boys that live in this house must be some swell bunch. Sigma Alpha Epsilon, O yes, they sent me one of those funny letters. Believe I ' ll go in and join that bunch. They must be the top notchers around here according to that house. And so I proceeded up the walk, and upon which, a large number of lillies burst out of the front door and proceeded to fall upon my arrow, size 13 . Hastily, I drew away and backed into a corner. What manner of mistake have I made? These can ' t be bona fide fraternity men. This must be some low type of board- ing house. The bunch had backed off and were sorrowfully looking at me from beneath their unkempt hair and pure American clothes. I re- mark, Sorry make mistake, Goodbye. They say not to leave, but I had already gone on with my walking exercise. And I was met at the step ' s bottom by a couple of lovely men who told me they were Phi Diddles or I Shelter Thetas — or something and they themselves were personally Mr. Feagan and Mr. Leftwich — at which I murmured that I was pleased to be met and that I would go walking as they asked. And lo! as I said this they placed their fingers upon their lips and led me to a nearby alley where we discoursed much — or at least they did — I went to sleep— or almost. Finally they left me in repose and calling back for me to remember things at which I stopped up my ears and saw the cause of their leaving which was: And as I looked about me I heard a noise as of a telegraph for me which I received and tore open to be surprised by contents, which were Mr. Gotter Buncha Coin, University of Texas, Austin. Hon. Sir: I am in receipt of fact that you are in school. The Univ. is an awful fine place of learning. But you must be some careful how you do while there. Fraternities are a factor up there. And, I think you must be yourself how much uselessness it would be to join anything but the Kappa Alphas, I remain, Your close friend, PERLMUTTER SHEEPHERDER. U. S. Senator. And then I fold it away in my pocket that I may later start my stove to light with it when it becomes colder later. Ill!ll!!lllll!!lil!i! UK 1914 And I turned because I hear much whisper behind me and I see a funny looking outfit which were swiftly coming upon me from behind It were, I soon find out was three persons who tell me that they were Beta Theta Pies — but I thought they resemble much worse. They told me to say nothing but come quick and they would take me out into the beautiful country where there was a club on which we would dance. I would laugh so much, they ask me reason why I do so — which I blushed when I tell them that they look like co-ed, of who I had heard were feminine and nice. Then one fat boy puff much of face — and he was so crazy looking but another who seemed to be attempting to be right smooth — but slipped — said to not mind him as he was only a child — then I tay, Oh yes, mentally, and they gnash their teeth and titter and put their dressuit tails in their hind pockets and ask for loan of piece of gum for chew purposes, and if I was going to do something the very next Christmas when they would desire to rush me. I smirked of mirth and said, that I had forgot to get up my laundry and that I must go do so They look as if they were indignation, but I left right away. And as I passed lightly on my way, I gazed behind me and saw them nibbling toolishly upon their manicured nails and, pointing at my departing form, whisper secrets in the ear of a passing co-ed, who was fair of face, and er — mentally seven years. And as I again entered my room, the fool telephone began to make an awful noise — upon investigation, I found that a party named Jester was talking and he said that a bunch, called Kappa Sigma, did want to get a look at me, and could I come down to the Senate and put on a snoot with them that night. I felt skeptical so I ask him for references which he said he had none. I think and then make question as follows. Well, what are you? Do you amount to anything? Are you recognized and admired by Student Body? He answered saying, Some co-eds think so. I suddenly bring him back to first question at which he seem- ed much peeved and hung up the receiver. I don ' t believe they are any- way. And as I pass down the street, I looked behind me and saw a bunch of came suddenly into a quiet retreat — which by sign I soon discover to be Whitis Avenue. And in time I came before a nice new cement house, which look and see the residence of the Sigma Cries, or something like that — anyway it was sitting there awfully still like and so lonesome that I almost wanted to weep. But I didn ' t. I thought I would go in and encourage them and tell them that I would be one of them if they want- ed me to. Forewith I gathered my nerve together and stepped up to the front door and pushed the fascinating little bell. Finally, after a long wait the door was swung wide and a discouraged appearing burrhead drew his face on me and asked me what I wanted. Upon me telling him the desired information he sleepily yawned and remarked that on ac- count of the train being late, he had not yet arrived. And I pass down the street, I looked behind me and saw a bunch of toughs hanging their heads out of the window of the house next door. They seemed to be having a good time playing hide and seek or some other dangerous game. I asked a Prof, who was passing at the time, why they all did that way. He told me in a stage whisper that they were evidently doing that to pass away the time until the other fraternities were finished in their choosing of their numbers — then they would g o out and see if anything happened to be left or not. As he crossed the street he hollered back that they were Sigma Knews. I retaliated that I thought they were. And as I drew near unto my sleep hole, I passed a couple of wise looking students who were apparently having a large size argument. They were standing in front of a sweet little brick house and were pointing into its general direction with divers gestures and things. Soon as I dragged myself into hearing distance, I discovered that they were having an argument about the inhabitants of the said place. One of them con- tended that a fraternity infested the place. The other said it was not so — they were just a boarding club. They went at the debate with much gusto and other studes appeared and joined into the debate. Soon 1 learned the reason of the stand of the first speaker — he lived in the house. None of the others would seem to agree with him and the final decision was that the house was untenanted. I looked up and concluded they were right — and a bunch of foreign settlers were getting ready to move in. But no, I see the name, Chi Phi plastered before my weary vision. At this point I grabbed a passing car and beat it to the city where I assumed my false whiskers and in a short space of time become pickled. The next morning I awoke with a headache and a large chunk of ribbon pinned on my pajamas with instructions written on paper not to tell anybody for a year. Gad! I ' ve joined one. Then I turned over to sleep. Too bad I didn ' t get to see the balance of the bunches. Presently in my dreams, I began to see things. A horrible bunch of rifraf come howling down the street in a junk wagon. The driver was howling Alpha Tau Omegas. Gee! what a smell — I almost had a night- mare. And I drifted through great gloomy caverns out of which did issue moans and cries as of deep pain. And the word Parlin was uttered as conferring deep damnation. And there was empty spaces there and funny shapes sailed through the murky air. And they called out to each other as they passed. And I heard, Holmes, West, Proctor. Stanley, Walker, and other bad sounds, and my dreams suddenly went swinging off on another track — thank goodness! And there came a blaring trumpets and a large noise and I craned my neck full forty-six feet and there came nothing — but out of the ground in dirty white let- ters came the insignia. Booming along, I perched for a time on a breezy tree limb and looked down upon the crusty earth, and saw a large bumble- bee which did flitter about and play a large noise on a clarinet. And he was horribly ugly. And he did smell had and he began to chant three peculiar words — Phi Kappa Psi. And then the business of the nightmare began to pick up in earnest and I became a spotted toadfrog that did hop up and down and turn flips for pleasure of it. And out of the milky way come a rag peddler with a sack full of Delta Chi pledge pins which he did fasten unto my frame. And I did die of pure mortifica- tion. And having died I unfortunately went to the wrong place for happiness. And on the grimy rocks were painted Delta Sigma Phi. And behold I strolled for a new cavern. A shiny sentinel stood there and invited me into Delta Kappa Epsilon, but I declined and went into one next door which was labelled Theta Xi. And — and then I woke up and bathed my aching head. What a dream. The upper picture of Mr. Hinton was taken when he was only seven years old. It shows well his precocity and determina- tion which is a characteristic of the man. The lower picture was snapped after our subject was well into his ' teens and very active in University affairs.

There were so many complicated things to be led you know, that the inferior mentalities of the younger members of the society could not be trusted to do it. So after much thinking by the President (Mrs. Sutton) it was decided that if the sweet little children, and Annie Earl Wells and Lois Young would think it perfectly all right, she would have Lillian to do it for them. The girls all thought it would be just too sweet of her to let her do it all fc- them. And, O yes, about the dance — it happened. Hoss Winston was there.

NOTED MEN ARE MEMBERS TWO POOH BAHS Men Famous in Politics, Religion and Finance Make Up Membership of This Fraternity— General Sec- retary Visits Dallas. Not so very long ago, in fact quite recently. Senator Burton of Ohio, referred to A. Barton Hepburne, President of the New York Chamber of Commerce as the poo-bah of financial America. Poo-bah by the way, is a term of last resort, so to speak, to picture the refinement or exclusiveness of a person or thing. In other words, to accuse a person of being a poo-bah is to say that that person is about the whole thing, the guardian of the inner shrine, the keeper of the seal or in some way or after some manner, occupying a financial or social position slightly aloofer from the general run of humanity than even a Standard Oil magnate occupies. Sometimes he eliminates or effaces opposition. Now, among the many fraternal organizations that exist and thrive among the sons of men is the Delta Kappa Epsilon Fraternity, the poo- bah of all fraternities, for behold are not the members of this organiza- tion heirs to, and joint heirs with the great men of the earth.

And that night I came home after the nine thirty act had gotten in its dirty work, I felt perfectly miserable. I must be amused. Life of a Saturday night is not one swell time any more. But well, through the window of my dream chamber, there came a noise of much fussing. Behold! I looked out of my window and beheld the fact that the Dekes were preparing themselves as for a great festivity — as judged by the noises of their dressing room and what not. And then my mental facili- ties did a flip flop, and I remembered that it was an occasion of open house among all the sororities — and near sororities. Donning an old overcoat and hat (you see I was wise to the game), I sped myself on the journey of adventure among the uncivilized that haunt the caverns of all open house. And in time I rang the bell of the Chi Omega House from out of which did issue a great noise and steam poured through the very cracks of the walls thereof. And a dame yclept Mulkey did urge me to enter and that she was the model second year Freshman of the Chi Ohs — and I did extend my heartiest condolences to the unfortunate remainder. And there was a great jumble. And there was Mary Wester — who is a love- ly dame. And there were others and still others, but I had long since climbed out of a window a wiser but happier man on my exit therefrom. And as I stepped upon the sidewalk there burst upon me a great wad of Delta Chi social lions whom I followed to a house across the street. I asked a funny little girl who was standing by trying to look thoughtful very unsuccessful and was wearing an arrow and chain of Pi Beta Phi, if this was the Pi Betas Phi House. She said through her giggles that it was only a branch thereof, and that the inmates only hibernated here, until they could cultivate the proper atmosphere of forty-one below before they could be honored among the patricians of all Pan-Hellenic, so I left and went to the Kappa House, as I felt it my sense of duty to go to even all of the sororities. I didn ' t want to slight any. And they had a nice house that could accommodate a goodly number of girls, and it seemed a shame that there should be only one Kappa for such a big house. And she did possess a large number of housekeepers who did flock about at her bidding. Cash, thy name is Kappa. And on my way back I did stop by a couple of houses which did sport the mystic and aristocratic Grecian insignia of Alpha Delti Pi, and Phi Mu. I said I stopped — which I did— and lit a cigarette in front of each — my time is valuable. And the beautiful shades of Whitis arched above my head as I passed happily through them onward to the places of the Pi Bhetas. And I was ushered into a sweetly scented, shadowy lit parlor by an exquisite damsel in an expensive evening costume — imported from Sixth Street. She frowned meaningly at me and whispered that I had neglected to place myself in dress suit — which I could easily have borrowed from my roommate. And there in the soft and yellow light I discovered that it was nice to be as such, and was glad thereof. And suddenly I looked at my watch and discovered that I had overstaid my time by fifty minutes. You see I used to live in Greenland. Presently I found myself in the Theta House, but as far as I could see they were not aware of that fact. I entered the front door unnoticed; went into the parlor likewise; went back into the hall and back into the back cozy corner, and circling the table made my way back into the hall and on to the front door. I afterwards sent them word that I had been there. They were all very much occupied — you see they were talking to some other particular person at the time. Well, anyway I got to the tri-Delt house. They were all there, and I think they were all right sweet girls. I didn ' t stay long. I soon left and went somewhere else. It was a long walk but I finally got to the Zeta house. Before enter- ing I carefully brushed my clothes and smoothed my hair— these open house affairs should be used as carefully and formally as possible. As- suming a dignified expression I entered by the front door. And a great noise burst upon me. I soon discovered it was only the chaperon dis- entangling two combatant Zeta sisters, and pointing out that they were violating the Marquis of Queensbury rules. Feeling a bump on my head that had been suddenly brought about, I realized that I had received a whack on the head with a piano stool— that I might feel more at home in the surroundings that I had then occupied. And there was dancing and other helraising, and presently an ardent suitor of one of the digni- fied sisters came in bearing an oyster loaf to offer up on the shrine of his beloved. He was cleverly sandbagged and presently the entire chap- ter had adjourned with company to enjoy it in the coal cellar. By now I had sobered up by the Ish Ka Bibble Flats, and changed my state of being at their open house function which they learned to make by phon- ing Miss Lois Young— who in turn asked her father just how to make it. Well, anyway it was pretty good, and my roommate had quite a time putting me to bed later. m ' W lllil I 1914 Curses, mutters, scowls and intermit- tent howlings, tearings of hair, and rentings of shirts.

Jan. 20. 1914. Mr. A. G. Adair. President Students ' Association U. of T.. Austin. Tex. Dear Adair: When I left school last year I left a small desk in the Cactus office. It was my priv.-te properly and I instructed Dick Fleming to sell it for me. On my visit to Austin at the opening of school I found the desk in the Texan office, and on inquiring, found that Dick had pot sold it. but that it had simply been taken charge of by the Texan boys. I made a proposition to sell it to Underwood, who was using it. He said he would see Jerry Fowler about it. and I heard nothing further from it. leaving the matter in Dick ' s hands. When I was in Austin Thanksgiving. Dick told me the Texan people still had the desk and refused to pay him for it. claiming that they owned it It hap- pened that I saw Jerry Thanksgiving night and mentioned the -natter to him. He said that he would have to take the matter up with the Students ' Council, and would let me know what they did. I have not heard from him since. I bought the desk abo.it two vears ago. and have a clear and unincumbered title to it. The manner in which it was removed from the Cactus office, and the manner in which I have been sent from place to place are very distasteful to me. and I will not much longer restrain myself from using strong English. I want the desk, or five dollars. I don ' t care to be sent to anyone else to get this matter settled. If you at the Council cither have anything to do with this matter please have it settled one way or the other at once, and let me know. If not drop me a line, and 1 will take it up with Jerry again. Please have the money paid over, or the desk delivered to Dick Fleming. He is my agent in this matter. I am rather severe. I fear, but that is the result of the shabby treatment I have been subjected to. If Underwood had ever asked me for the desk, I would have been glad to Mil it to him at a much lower figure, or even to give it to him. I will do anything I can to aid the success of the Texan. But after waiting so long a time for any cctton at all. 1 have lost my patience. I had rather see that little old desk burned to hell and back than to have the Texan people take it and keep it. as they scerr. to want to do. Please have this matter attended to at once, and advise Dick. Pardon my asperity, but I have lost my temper. You fellows seem to be having a great year down there. I with I could be there to take part. Very truly yours. TOM S. HENDERSON. JK. R. L. SKILES ' 16, ELECTED TO THE PRESIDENCY OF THE UNIVERSITY PRESS CLUB. Signal Honor Raises Delta Chi to High Position. February 11. — At a meeting of the exclusive organization of the University of Texas Press Club, held last night — such organization now being known as the Delta Chi Heelers Association, a swarm of those high aristocratic Greeks were present, and proceeded with the business of the meeting, to-wit: The business of annual election. Twelve members were present — one other besides the eleven others previously mentioned happened to be among those there. Ex-Presi- dent Wythe (Delta Chi) made a thundering speech of nomination Ex-President Fleming (Delta Chi) made a flowery seconding speech. The others made great and beautiful oratorical bursts in the endeavor to convince the foreign single vote — not that it mattered in the out- come — but you know just for the looks of the thing. After the election the business of new members was taken up, and eight new Delta Chi ' s were elected to membership. O AT A GERMAN ABOUT THREE WEEKS AFTER SCHOOL OPENED IN THE FALL.

TERRIBLE DUEL BETWEEN TWO PROMINENT MEN- ARTHUR SCOTT AND BOOGE BRINN. Special to The Cactus. It is with sincere regrets that the many friends of the above gentle- men are compelled to read an accurate and detailed account of an ap- proaching disaster. The two have met on the Campus of Love and the consequence is the aforesaid duel. It all came about in this fashion. You see, since Annie Earle threw Scotty over that everloving man and bis Buick once again went in quest of love as the knights errant of old. The first victim of Li ' l Arthur ' s loving ways had to be a Zeta of course, innocent little . Now Booge had always claimed her even in times when the memory of man runneth not to the contrary. (Con- flict) Booge got up his Irish (and everything else) and spoke some harsh words to that Delta Sig. Each drew their cards, and the first step was taken. All the plans for the affair had been completed, and the place of combat is to be in the rear of the Phi Beta Kappa house. Booge, after due consideration, selected S. M. Leftwich as his second. The following have been summoned as pall-bearers: Leroy Denman (foreman). Arthur Scott (by courtesy), Jamie Nixon, Charlie Francis, Gambrell Randle, and Garland Adair. Scott has selected as his second Delta Sig Simpson. The following pall-bearers were chosen: Dr. Bennett (boss), P. Brad- ley, Bill Stanley (by request), S. L Anderson, Besuford Jester and Clay Beckner. S. L. Terry wanted to be flower boy, but Leslie Flowers is better qualified, and was therefore chosen, as places were chosen by competition. The funeral will be held in the vacant lot by the Sigini Nu House. Lrt us hope that no one gets hurt as the Pi Phi ' s still want to use the Buick.

To begin with, all the 4000 were there in borrowed dress suits and flowers on credit rearing to go. Miss Thatcher, Chi Oh, of the Basket Ball Team (Co-ed) led the main doings with Mr. Leftwich of the 1912 football team. However, a team organized jointly from the semi- exclusive bunches of Zeta and Beta, came back strong in the second half by leading off a matrimonial cotillion. This part was done with eclat, and some of the kids got frog-stickers. Dainty refreshments were participated in, and Buckshot Williams, tried to get a second helping — wonder who invited him anyway. Poor girl, she must have had a hard time in filling out her quota of invitations. Those of the S. A. E. at whom were cast a bone of invitation out of pity, all came gladly and stuck around awhile. In view of the necessi- ties of public policy, they made conversation with their profiles in their company ' s view. Duval West shone brilliantly, and was easily the lion of the even- ing.

Called to order by President Wimmer. Mary Wester moved, sec- onded and carried her motion to the effect that all Chi Omegas who wished to join be admitted ipso facto, as it were. L. Sutton arose to tell of several friends she was going to railroad through a la Angler: she was squelched by Dr. Holliday. Hughes King requested to be made inactive at the end of each month, reason not given. This was granted by a majority of one, Mr. King counting the ballot. Ways and Means ' was next for discussion, but the Sells brigade in toto (or is it Floto) were forcing the doors, and the meeting adjourned to meet next with Miss Mildred Fink.

Buckshot Williams stepped into the Cactus office on a matter of business. He came laden with gifts of things in payment of notices that his befuddled instincts told him he might expect therefrom as of last year. However, he left suddenly with the imprint of the office boy ' s toe on his — er — pants. The representative of the Pi Beta Phi Fraternity dropped in on us the other afternoon, and offered us a whole ice box if we would manage to overlook them on the Dr. Cook business this year. Gowans Jones — aw, you know that simple boob that thinks Prexy Mezes is his office boy— came in to give us some instructions in regard to printing, time of publishing, etc. We told him of a famous summer climate that would be better decorated with his presence— «h wot?

The dropping of the bleeding sun brings on the end of the skirmish. The living and the dead lay on the trampled battlefield, and some send up a wail of existence and some can only show their bodies. The living endure a nightmare, and the dead know no feelings of misery, nor other. So with the things of the past — shall our dead lie horrible amid the mocking stars of an everlast- ing life. Shall not a wave of deep oblivion sweep that ghostly place and prepare anew for the blithesome spring of a new existence? Bear with the music that charms the soul of man, and look squarely around you. and perceive the world — And they cast their glances broadcast, and methought I saw them smiling.

M. Profeisor of Physiology Since 1897 Dean of the Medical Department. 1903 D. g|HE history of the Medical Department of the University of Texas has been characterized by its unvaryingly up- ward course, an upward progress which alumni and undergraduates may well re- gard with pride; and while this has been largely due to the policy of the Board of Regents, the sympathetic help of the President, the financial support of the State, and liberal gifts from private benefactors, it is impossible to overestimate the importance of the Dean ' s part as the central in- fluence in every upward movement. While Dr. Carter is to be identified with the department of a School of Physiology in this College, pre-emi- nently suited to the needs of the medical student, it is to his executive work as Dean since 1903 that the Medical Department owes its greatest debt. Only those in closest touch with the Dean ' s work can form an estimate of the constant upward out- look, the wide grasp of medical education in all its bearings, the untiring effort and the executive ability that h e has exercised in this capacity; while in his more intimate relations with the stu- dents his high ideals, big-hearted sympathy, and unswerving justice have commanded the respect of all, and the love of those who have known him.

Decatur Phi Chi; Business Manager Cactus. ' 13; Ambulance, ' 14. Happy John — A deep voice and an indelible smile. He immortalized himself in his Sophomore year by saving the life of a North Texas jack rabbit by the administration of n couple of leaves of Atropa Bella Donna. Beall is a good student, an all-round man and has th; good will of all who know him. Ernest Harmon Bursey B. A., M. D. Fort Worth Book Store. ' 14 Bursey has the distinction of being the quietest man in the class, also of being the only man in the class who has not said. I don ' t know. to any question asked him. Starnes says that he is the best pardner ' a bcok store could possibly have. He is a courteous gentleman and some popular with the other sex. Clara Cathright Cook M. D. Hearne And it came to pass that in those days from Brackenridge Hall there was an exodus. Cooky took m part in this because she was busy and knew nothing of it at the time. Clara is a model student and her close application to duty makes her deserving of the good grades she has made. J. Stewart Cooper M. D. Abilene Phi Kappa Sigma: Alpha Mu Pi Omega: Theta Nu Epsilon. Kini Ball Committee. ' 14. Associate Ed itor Cactus. ' 14. Coop— A student of the old school. The making of friends has been hi specialty. Frequently he star- tles the natives by bring. ng down high grades. His affable character and genial personality command the admiration of all. SENIOR MEDICS Roy Hassell Crockett B. A., M. D. Austin President Y. M. C. A.; Editor Medical, ' 14; Medical Staff. ' 13; Student Assistant in Histology. Davy — Well, ' er I don ' t know, but she might have Titanic convul- sions. Davy is a philosopher of the school of Plato and Aristotle. He is very deliberate in all things. Despite the fact that he sleeps all through lectures he makes grades with the best of them. Fred Clarence Fowler M. D. Valley Springs Sigma Nu; Theta Nu Epsilon; As- sistant Manager Cactut. ' 13; Vice- President Dining Club, ' 14. Fritz — Storey ' s successor as Pro- prietor of the Men ' s Dining Club Smoke Factory. He has been more or less of a dabbler in poli- tics. His pleasant smile and con- stant good humor make him ex- ceedingly well liked by everyone. It may be said of Fritz that he has been somewhat handicapped by a chronic case of nursitis. Charles Washington Gray M. D. Comanche Phi Beta Pi. Sadie — The only name he has an- swered to for the past four years. How he acquired it, no one seems to know, but perhaps it is associat- ed with sad memories. Sadie never forgets a face or a girl ' s phone number. He gave up a brilliant career as a baseball player in order to study medicine, but he doesn ' t regret it, as he says he could never establish the record in baseball that he has in biology. William Hiliary Guy M. D. Carbon President Men ' s Dining Club, ' 14. Before coming to Galveston to study medicine, Guy had tried many things. He didn ' t like farming; school teaching didn ' t agree with him. and he couldn ' t get along with Uncle Sam. Now he seems to have struck his talent, and his classmates predict a brighter and successful future for him. SENIOR MEDICS Ross Jones Ph.B.. M. D. Waco Alpha Mu Pi Omega; Theta Nu Epsilon; Business Manager Medi- cal. ' 13: Final Bell Committee. ' 14. Caiey — Engineer on the Sea Wall Special, a member of the famous triumvirate. Casey-Cocp-Whiiy. which organization added a chapter to the history of the school. As a student, politician, and financier. Casey has distinguished himself. His way of doing things is strictly his own. Minnie Lee Moffett M. D. Groesbeck Dr. Moffett has the advantage of being able to look down upon her classmates. When she speaks they hear her; when she expresses her opinions none oppose her. She has strong convictions and defends them ably. She is a good student, a jolly companion, and it is predict- ed that she will go far in her chosen profession Wallace Marsch Martin B. A., M. D. Galveston Delta Sigma Phi; Alpha Mu Pi Omega. Wallace-Kelley — Big in body and mind. A fisherman a scholar of note. of fame and Frank Hawley Newton B. A., M. D. Hubbard Phi Alpha Sigma; Phi Beta Kappa; Sealy Hospital. 14. Newt — ' Way back in his Freshman year he missed one night from the grind and has never forgiven him- self. Newt ranks A plus in all those things which go to make a good student and a good fellow. He has won for himself an enviable place in the hearts of his instruc- tors, and the good will of all hn classmates. to A V SENIOR MEDICS Joseph N. Park M D. Kyle Alpha Mu Pi Omega; Final Ball Committee, P I4. Joe has many friends and no ene- mies. His greatest fault is that he cannot resist the attraction of a pretty face. But we don ' t blame him; we could love him without all his faults. William Boyd Reading M. D. Galveston Sigma Chi; Alpha Mu Pi Omega. Boyd — His ranch up State has claimed most of his time, but for all that he ranks way up high in the class records. He goes to Blackley Hospital, Philadelphia, next year, and with him go the best wishes of his many friends. Eugene Vernon Powell M. D. Cleburne Sealy Hospital, ' 14; President Students Council, ' 14; President ex- officio Executive Committee, ' 14; Final Ball Committee, ' 14. Tige — Some time, early in hU Soph- omore year, along with Davy Crock- ett a nd others, Tige joined the Medical Corps of the National Guard. Ever since, he has held himself in readiness to march, on a moment ' s notice, to Mexico. He goes regularly to the armory for his equipment and keeps it in his room. William Love Starnes B. A., M. D. Georgetown Alpha Kappa Kappa; Associate Editor Cactus, ' 13: Bookstore, 14. The handsomest man in the class. The same is true of him, it is said, when he was a : Southwestern. Doesn ' t smoke, doesn ' t drink, doesn ' t gamble, and doesn ' t cuss. We like him anyway, and in spite of all these drawbacks. Burse jl says that Starnes is a great help to him in the book store. Early in his Senior Year he established his reputation as a gynecologist. SENIOR MEDICS Fred Lee Story B. S., M. D. Ennis Alpha Kappa Kappa; Class Presi- dent. M; Secretary-Treasurer Din- ing Club. ' 13; Cigar Store. - 14; Sealy Hospital. ' 14. Fred — The brightest mind and the best memory in the class. Quiet and unassuming, but when the grades are posted his name heads the list. A good fellow, and liked by everybody. John Ross Whisenant M. D. Dallas Delta Tou Delti; Alpha Mu Pi Omega: Theta Nu Epsiion ; Presi- dent Final Ball. ' 14: Medical Staff. 11. Whizy-Prep-Nesway — A leader among men; generous to a fault; never deserted a friend nor slander- ed an enemy. He has rt-.de a host of friends, and has studied some. He has been heard singing with Tom Vaughan. Thomas Davis Vaughan M. D. Bertram Phi Delta Theta; Phi Alpha Sigma; Class President. ' 14; Executive Council. ' 13; Final Ball Commit- tee. ' 14. Tom — He comes to us with base- ball fame; he leaves us a dignified doctor. Tom has an Irishman ' s appreciation of humor and an end- lets line of — «r good stories (?). By those who have been so fortu- nate as to have heard him. it is said that Tom sings well. A good sport David Cash Williams B. S., M. D. Commerce Phi Beta Pi; Theta Nu Epsilon: Editor Cactus. ' 14: Final Ball Committee. ' 14. Pat — At full of wit and humor as the name implies, as dandy a fel- low and as good a sport as any one. Sad is the day of graduation when we must part with auch friends as the Irishman. President W. D. Lightfoot President W. E. Ramsey Vice-President E. H. Marek Vice-President Z. J.

The rest of the time Jimmie and he spend going to the banana boat. Has been known to start a fight, but never to finish one. John Louis Bartlett, Ph.G. San Antonio Jack — Holds the class honors for throwing old Bos Taurus. He intends to be a doc- tor, but at present spends most of his time nursing. Thomas Carl Boucher, Ph.G. $ A X Jewett Butch — Says that back East girls fall easily for brown eyes and black curls. He is at a loss to explain why girls in Galveston do not fall so easily for his charms. He was never known to study but gets there just the same. Chester Coleman Currie, Ph.G. Rainbow Is a quiet, good-natured, slow but hard working student. He smiles con- stantly, but cannot explain why. His in- nocent, slightly wild look at a stranger is easily explained by his reigning from the best farm near Rainbow. Vice-President winter term. Stephen Edward Denham, Ph.G Forestburg Steve — His peculiar changing of colors and exciting whipping of inexplicable emotions over his countenance when asked a question in Crude Drugs, almost stirs thoughts in his classmates of a missing link. He means well. G. W. Dickinson, Ph.G. Galveston Dick — It cannot be called a real ambition, but rather a fiendish desire of getting away from the Star ' s soda fountain that prompt- ed Dick ' s trial for a Ph. G. President spring term. SENIOR PHARMACY Frank W. Dimmitt, Ph.G. Yoakum Prank — He carries his head high in the skies, his body erect, and thus present! a striking impersonation of Cordray ' s pride. He makes splendid grades and says nothing further about them, but that they were made without exertion. John Wesley Halsey. Ph.G. Rogers Silver Top— He is so slow in his talk, walk, work and expression that he has become a constant reminder of that skin disease for which Sulphur Ointment is a specific. His greatest trouole in getting a livelihood will be in finding days long enough to get started. Secretary and Treasurer winter term. Samuel August Hoerster. Ph.G. A X Plehweville Dutch — Hoerster you cut me. you son of gun. Having a constant longing for association with steers his instructors have found it impossible to keep him at his post when a Tampico cattle boat comes in. Was once seen with a Probe, but is now living a quiet life. John Clifford Hurt, Ph.G.. A X Big Spring Effie — In his extended military training he became so accustomed to walking straight paths that he never turns the corners on the half streets, but proceeds through the alley directly across. The monotony of being a blond it broken by a slight sandy tinge. He deals mainly in brunettes. Alonzo Gardner Hervey, Ph.G. Kernes Alonzo — He immortalized his name in Sal- vation Army Circle by altogether acci- dentally booting their saving ' s bank under a moving street car. His pharmacy at tainments arc well balanced with the ex- ception of a natural immunity for Physiolo- gy. Vice-President winter ttrm. William Ira Jonea, Ph.G. Audrey Ira — The characteristics, peculiar to him, still lie dormant somewhere in his Ion ; bent anatomy. But, being Irish, wonderful spasms 01 humor burst forth at intervals of about six weeks. The D en his sweater (from Denton) was granted him because opposing teammen could never tell how much ground he had gained when they tackled below his knees. President winter term. m — ' SENIOR PHARMACY Emmett Slator Kuykendall, Ph.G., $AX Llano, Kirk — He came from Coronal as light weight champion fighter; promptly estab- lished his record in his Freshman year and has held the belt undisputed ever since. Besides that attainment he is a female heart smasher and labors under more char- acteristic nicknames than Barbarossa — Kirk, Kuyk, Shorty, Wart, Hired Boy, etc. Alvin Loeffler, Ph.G., $ A X Mason Leftie Louie — He is cross- tempered. Al- though he pretends that he loafs a great deal, he has a lot of good hard sense and knows how to use it. He lives in the Iso- lation Pavilion, and in consequence his prowling is euess-work and his love for nurses is spoken of as rumor only. Secre- tary and Treasurer spring term. Berry Loper, Ph.G. Mabank Kress — He was a country school teacher before coming here. His love for teaching was so thoroughly rooted that on his ar- rival he organized a Sea Wall Course for females, giving individual instruction. He laughs high soprano, talks intermittent- ly and walks with his head and hands like one accustomed to furrow sptinting. Thomas Quitman Moseley, Ph.G., $AX Ennis Tommy — He came here when he was a mere child, and for fear that the nurses will send him to a kindergarten he never tells his age. He is quick-minded, as he is young, and will make a chemist if he does not have tp discontinue his course in order to take time out to grow. He attends High School people ' s functions. Francis Marion Pearce, Ph.G. Ballinger Fatty — His pet topics of conversation, of which business tactics stand out very prominent. He will be rich enough some day to raise dust in Ballinger with a Buz Wagon, if he finds his theories practic- able. Physically he would make a good advertisement for a grocery store selling patent medicines. President fall term. William Forrest Powell, Ph.G. $ A X Marquez Forrest — He exposes the happiest self-sat- isfaction when he wears his best clothes; his straight brimmed hat sharply sloping o er one eye; and the fire end of a well- chewed Watt cigar protruding under his Sombrero. When thus attired he oc- cupies the whcle sidewalk in a wabbling walk talking of the Powell Drug Co. to his companion, who is either blocked be- hind him or pushed ahead. 41111111 ( ' Sacks SENIOR PHARMACY Frank Allen Ratliff, Ph.G. Ganado Rats — He once tried to drown the recollec- tion of lost Kentucky love by going to A. ft M.. but failed, so he cast his lot with Pharmacy in U. of T. He had forgotten Kentucky entirely when an unknown Ken- tuckian eent him a package of frefh to- bacco leaves. Larkin Peyton Skinner, Ph.G. Athens Digitoxin — Boys, I am dignified in the real sense of the word. I walk erect: am at class on time, do my work conscien- tiously. And when I talk, boys, listen closely, ai I talk rather feminine, yet plain, sounding especially my s almost in a low whistle. Louis Stachowiak, Ph.G. Bremond Chick — He is from Brentond and has to be shown. The casual observer would sigh a muffled Good-bye at seeing Stack just as they would sneeze trying to pro- nounce his name as he wants it pronounced. But people who know him and have learn- ed to pronounce his Polish name, say he is at good-hearted at he is stout. Me ■ evn congenial when one can understand his mangled English. Besides Stack is a good student. Roy Denton Stem, Ph.G. Joshua Roy — It ' s an unsolved problem how Stem mustered courage enough to come to town. Suffice to say that he is here, has learned to walk sidewalks, instead of streets. Fur- thermore he came here to stay, making his work by studying. He says, he came here to learn. James Neville Stone Gonzales Jimmy — Politics, hard luck, seawall courses and a Pharmacy course are responsible for Jimmy ' s being with us almort three years. He expects to teach Physics, having made a specialty of that science. He reached the climax in his political cireer when he started chumming with Barkley. He has twenty-five friends in the Senior Pharmacy Class. Willie Prible Woody. Ph.G. Goldthwaite Willie — As a society man he became full- grown when a Goldthwaite belle gave him a meerschaum pipe. Anxious to return to quiet bachelor life, he broke the pipe. Oc- cupying space at Witherapoon ' s Drug Store for the experience, markt the height of his business career. He will possibly return to his social duties at Goldthwaite after graduating.

I I ' ll AN APPRECIATION •TO GIVE thanks for work rendered is a pleasure, rather than a convention. For I |L the virtues of this book, it is indebted to many unselfish students. But as a ■ farewell statement I wish to express my appreciation of the efforts of a few of those who have worked for this volume and for Varsity. Milton Daniel has not only been both a capable and congenial manager, but has invaded the ranks of the editors and has rendered valuable service in planning, organizing and completing this book. My connection with him has been one of pleasure. To Geo. Wythe is due much praise for a new motif and spirit in the Athletic Section. Dave Williams and J. W. Thomason are responsible for the best in the Art Department. To Robert Simmons, E. P. Howard, William Lipscomb, Ray Holland, Gordon West and T. E. Popple- well, I wish to place laurel. And lastly, Frank Wozencraft, who is praiseworthy for his wonderful action pictures, was always there with his trusty Camera. The Elliots were most generous in their time and attention to the work of the book and were always eager to get pictures on time. The quality of their work was the best. The Johnston Printing Advertising Company has done more for the 1914 Cactus than any printer we could have found. Overtime labor, a handsome stock of paper and type, and superb workmanship have been their contributions. We have attempted to make this Cactus artistic, refined, delicate and digni- fied. Whether this conscientious attempt, backed by much hard work, has succeeded or not, rests upon your opinion and reception of this volume. G. T. L.

Carbonated water has a distinct beneficial effect on the membranes of the mouth, throat and stomach in hot weather. And carbonated water mixed with fruit juices and sugar, not only has a cooling, grateful effect on these membranes, not only tastes good and quenches thirst, it ' s also beneficial as a food — THAT IS TO SAY — beneficial and a foodprovided its clean, pure and wholesome.

Announcing the New Typewriter, OLIVER No. 7 We announce an amazing model— the OLIVER NUMBER 7— a typewriter of SUPER-EXCELLENCE, with automatic devices and refinements that mark the zenith of typewriter progress. A marvel o f beauty, speed, and easy action. Typewriting efficiency raised to the Nth power. The OLIVER No. 7 embodies all previous Oliver innovations and new self-acting devices never before seen on any typewriter. A leap in advance which places the Oliver ten years ahead of its time. So smooth in action, so light to the touch, so easy to run, that experts are amazed. A model that means to the typist delightful ease of operation. A model that means a higher standard of typewriting, longer and better service. The NUMBER 7 is now on exhibit and sale at all Oliver Branches and Agencies throughout the United States. The new model has more improve- ment!, refinements and new uses than we can even enumerate here. The cushioned keyboard with an- chor keys and the new automatic fea- tures mean less work for the hands, less strain on the eyes, less manual and mental effort. With all of these masterly mechani- cal improvements we have made the machine more beautiful and sym- metrical. From every standpoint the OLIVER NUMBER 7 attains super- lative excellence. l l M i H I HMMMMM III M  ♦♦ : -•:■•:■-:■■ T6c OLIVER y The Standard Visible Writer Nothing you could wish for has been omitted. The new devices, refinements, improvements and con- veniences found on the NUMBER 7 represent an enormous outlay and vastly increase its value — THE PRICE HAS NOT BEEN ADVANCED ONE PENNY. We shall even continue in force our popular 17-Cents-a-Day purchase plan, the same as on previous Oliver Models. The OLIVER No. 7, equipped with the famous Printype, if desired, without extra charge. Vou owe it to yourself to see the new machine before you buy any typewriter at any price. Note its beauty, speed and easy action, its wonderful automatic devic es. Try it on any work that is ever done on typewriters. Try it on many kinds of work that no other typewriter will do. It is a significant fact that the typewriter that introduced such epoch-making innovations as visible writing, visible reading, Printype, etc., should be the first to introduce automatic methods of operation. OLIVER BOOK DELUXE We are just issuing a richly illustrated catalog describing the OLIVER No. 7. A copy is yours for the asking. There are still openings for more Local Agents in many localities. This is a good time to investigate these money-making opportunities.
