Howard Barrett nn ex-Brand editor

of the beloved benefactor who is "gone
but not forgotten."
Dr. J. M Estes' denth was given 43
points. Not only university physi-
cian he was a loyal and true support-
er of the Cowboys. Dr. Estes not only
looked nfter "his boys" but favored
them in many ways. He was killed
in an automobile accident while in
California after witnessing a football
game played by H-SU and Loyola.
The Cowboys won 7-0. The memory
of his kindness nnd care left the stu-
dents with a sense of loss which can-
not be replaced for years to come.
Fame glory and recognition were
received by the Cowboys as they went
through an undefeated football sea-
son. Compliments from various pa-
pers acknowledged the players as
boys who had done their best and In
some games made some spectacular
plays. The defeat of Loyola was one
of the most important wins of the
season Tho boys were set to gain
a name for themselves and made nice
copy when they branded Fresno Cal-
ifornia with the 15th straight vic-
tory. The disappointment and thrill
of the season occurred nt the Home-
coming gume with the "enemy" the
Howard Payne Yellow Jackets of
Brownwood. The game ended in n tie
thus causing the Simmonsites to loose
their title "undefeated untied." How-
ever tho Cowboys did retain their un-
defeated record. All in all the Cow-
boys had a very successful season
and all the student body nnd faculty
can say is that we are proud you
ropiesented us nnd we're for you 100
per cent next year! Forty-one points
were counted for the undefeated sea-
son of the vnrsity footbnll record
Homecoming as usual was a draw-
ing card. Every one had a glorious
time and will have something to tell
their grandchildren. The vidua did
not have to be bothered looking for
entertainment; members of the l'ucul-
ty nnd students had mapped out a
schedule that was i. treat to attend.

this honor. The ace passer and run-
ner for the Cowboys was highly com-
plimented by Alan Gould AP sports

As told by Rollo Goody Goody Col-
licr: "I awoke and immediately re-
gretted it! There on the foot of my
bed a pink elephant with a green high
hat and n purple monicle was holding
my head in his arms and doing the
Big Apple!
"As ho danced leering at me with
owlish eyes he kept pulling feathers
out of my mouth and tossing them on-
to the bed where they Innded with re-
sounding crashes! Then he started
trucking nnd I stole a handful of as-
perins from his cartridge belt and
swallowed them. Almost immediately
he started to fade away with funny
little mincing steps. Tho Inst I saw
of him he was waving his pink hand
in the distance. An eerie voice shout-
ting 'bon voyage'!" Rollo cut classes

Mrs. Locket Speaks On
African Youth In Chapel
Mrs. Elkin Lockctt formerly a mis
sionnry in Africa delivered one of
the best-received chapel talks of the
season. Because her health will not
permit Mrs. Locket is unable to re-
turn to missionary work abroad but
she is devoting her time to showing
tho youth of America the great need
for missionaries in Africa.
Speaking on the youth In Africa nt
the B. S. U. meeting Thursday night
Mrs. Locket revenlcd some of the
great accomplishments made through
teaching the African children. After
leaching school for seven years here
in America she went to the Dark Con-
tinent nnd continued this work.
"Our schools are great evangelistic
ngencics. And we are depending up-
on those whom we educate to become
teachers and preachers" stated the
former missionary.
The Africnn children who have been
taught Christianity by tho mission-
aries do a great deal in helping to
win their parents to the enlightened
ways of Christianity nccording to
Mrs. Locket. No amount of whipping
or punishment can make tho black
children worship the idols once they
have learned of Christ.
"The only thing that can change
nnd enlighten Africa is belief in
Christ" concluded Mrs. Locket
