"T" Association
Should be Organized
In former years the athletes of
John Tarleton,have organized them'
selves into. the "T-' Aaaooiation
On , leaving '.the., institution, they
think with great pride on the fact
that they were , members of this
group of. men«. It h?-a heen the eus
torn for the, ''T" Association to

habe a banquet at the close of the
year ^hi«h'is, indeed an enjoyable
affair and never to be forgotten by
them. This banquet is usually at
tended by athletes who were in Tar-
leton ' many years before, and on
hearing, the speeches of these men
every listener looks, forward until
he can come .hack in thei future to
one of these banquets and relate his
athletic experiences of his stay in
'rtvrleton. ... f
bo'idr'lhis year'the '"V'' Associ-
ation has not received any attention
to.wax'da' being organized. This con'
dition' is hot as it should he and the
organization of this' club will take
place immediately in the preparation
of a'in6f6 elaborate feed and get-to-
gether meeting than has ever taken
place before. ■ '

Cpach Wisdom has n§ver been,
entirely satisfied with the person-
nel of his basketball team until
very recently when an entirely
new man was discovered who will
undoubtedly become thef star of
the year. Your curiosity is pro-
bably aroused to a rather high de-
gree, As a source of enlighten-
ment this new man is no other
than our Dean J, Thomas Davis.
The rules governing; the confer-
ence eligibilities do not say wheth-
er a dean can be a member of the
team or not. V.;/
A visit to .the gyms by the .Dean
during the basketball practice per-
iod proved very helpful to the team.
Everyone who thinks our chief ex-
ecutive is one who has stayed be-
hind a desk all his life is very much
wrong because he is a , finished ari-
tist in" the fine points of handling
a' basketball. > v ■ ■ - i
Gym Boys
The gym boys are saddened this
week by the bact that our old wo-
man, Honk,has injured h|s delie te
ankle. After being disappointed in
an unfortunate love affair, little
Boyce Maurifce entered the basket*
ball gme against 0. B. IT. with such,
reckless abandon1'- that he sprained
his left ear and right ankle. It is'
also thought that one of his vocal
chords is strained, _ (haveii't heard
which one yet.) However, after lie
recovers, we prediet that he will be
as ardent in wooing the fair sex ds
ever. He is -going to grow. a John
Gilbert set of whiskers a a an orna-
ment for his manly countenance
during his convalescence (which
ever that is). He jrobably wpnt
even have t run an ad in the paper
to get married,now. , •.

with it if the scouts don't learn to

Captain-—Boyce (Hpnk) Irwin, on
account of injuries and an opera-

preformed on his knee. Honk was

There a good - possibility that
Itobert Earl Frazier will enter be-
fore February 4. Frazier lost only
on^ Xace'last year in the four dual
meetf and that, was. iii the first
dual meet of the season with How-
ard Payrie. He was defeated in
the injle by inches by the H-P, man
iliitljenfast time of 4:39.1, but de-
feated. the H-Pxman decisively in
the two. mile, prazier's best day
was, a^ainsfc the A. and M,. Fish,
wheW: he;-wOil: the miie. 'in 4:37.1
and the two-mile in 10:20. If he
en^ergfTiarletoh will almost have a
cinch .in the mile and, two-mile in
all the';dual meets and a new asso-
ciation.record,in the State.
V Sixty; iheiv hav6 signified their

Tarleton has a good eanee to win
.its fifth consecutive ehampionship
in track if the above men do their
best.
"Pirates of Melody^ was a big
success ,in spite of zero weather.
Snappy Sport Shots
The bad weather caused two good
basketball games to, be called off
at Weatherford tliia week! The
games were eelieduled, fqr Monday
and Tuesday nights, January 20th
and 21st. :Weatherfdl,di;, *Qoi%ge ]hag,
always had teama that were hard to
beat, and it is .a. ^ure fact tfi^t it
will be no easy task to beat them
this year.
In the first game, Captain Boyce
Irwin proved his ability to lead his
men in, a hard fight, In every close
play where starring was done,
"Honk'^ was featured, v.-. ., . ,
As soon aB the weather. pe^ialtB,
the track team is coming out in $ull
force and preparation for, a strenu-
ous schedule. According to the ma-
terial already reported, another
state championship is: in: store for
the 1930 track team. ., t . ,
Great things are ^expected of the
tennis team this year: They have
plenty of good material, and when
the weather stops being so severe,
there will be plenty of hard work
in deciding-who^lrtiVibe the. repre-
sentatives this year. (
The next • basketball1' "game ' at
home will be with- Wieliit" Junior
College on January, S^sJ and Febru-
ary 1st. This is' the first game of the
season with a' -juhibiI college, and
ought to be very interesting. The
football. game with "Wichita this
year ended in a tie. We'hope'it will
be' different in basketball. <
"Battleaxe" Weaver gave a good
account of himself against the. Bi-
eons .from OklaiionxtV.
Askus'.^"'"
1. What class of people are in the
grt ..test danger at > :the present
times? ■;
Ans.—Pedestrians.
2. What cadet ha'S the worst
case of S. A. in. school'?: .
Ans.—-We can't decide. That hon-
or lies between Karl Eudder, Fish
Norman, X)umb: Smith,-' ; Joe Me-
Adams. and lieon Stinsoh. All of
those fellows have it pretty sadly.
We might add that our colonel can
almost qualify for the list above.

you don.'t want to do and do every-
thing that you don 't1 ^ant to do.
