THE B. S. U STANDARD MUST BE
ATTAINED
In the B. S. U. program in chapel
Thursday morning Mr. Weldon stressed the
necessity of 'attaining the B. S. U. Stand
ard of Excellence in Simmons College.
The Brand desires heartily to echo this
statement and to urge upon the student
body that they set themselves to the task
of placing Simmons College at the top
of the honor roll.
We are to be hosts in a few weeks to
the annual convention of B. S. U.'s of Tex-
as and the eyes of the Baptist students
of the state are looking- to us for inspira-
tion and guidance in religious affairs
just as we are looking tq them for inspira-
tion and help. The Standard of Excellence
has been attained by several schools and
even by some of the state schools we be-
lieve It behoovs us as hosts of such a
great body to show ourselves well enough
interested In its principles and its aims to
cdo all we can to accomplishing them. Our
first task is to .attain the standard at home
then we can properly speak of availing
ourselves of the opportunity of .helping
vfith the cause elsewhere.
In order that we may attain the standard
we must all throw ourselves into the task
of enlistment at once. Line up with one
of the' religious bodies of the school Min-
isterial Council Volunteer Band Special
Workers- Laymen or Laywomen attend
church' regularly put your membership in
a city church or at .least come under the
watch care-of the church; join a Sunday
School class and find your place in the
young people's work B. Y. P. U Chris-
tian Endeavor Epworth League or What-
ever' It may be. Regardless of denomi-
nation or preference you can find a place
somewhere' In Abilene for an increased
spiritual life and usefulness. What say
about that Standard?
FRESHMAN CAPS
A greati deal has been said and will
continue to be said anent the subject of
Freshman caps. It seems to be the con-
sensus of opinion that the tradition of
cap-wearing should be lived up to by
the first year siudents of the school but a
number of the new men have not yet adorn-
ed themselves with this verdant badge of
their novitiate. Doubtless some of the upper
classmen will feel called upon to remind
such characters as forcibly as- may be nec-
essary of their remissness; while' others
Will feel that it is the duty of the Fresh-
men themselves to see that their laggard
brethren conform themselves to ths vener-
able custom. The problem of enforcing the
custom comes up each year with varying
steps toward its 'settlement.
Texas' University seems to have made a
notable advance toward the solution of the
problem. In the present registration each
Freshman upon paying his fees to the
auditor Is required to turn at once to a
nearby table and secure his Freshman cap.
A committee of upper classmen have this
matter in charge and are at hand with
the supply of caps. The new rnan planks
over a dollar takes up his cap and is
required (Hereafter to wear it at all proper
times ad seasons. We are willing to
wafer that net 'many men get by that
taU
line and given to Wayland. Here the
visitors made their first down of the game
on a five yard pass and a plunge but on
the next play Wright threw tlitm for a
five yard loss. Again a pass from center
went high and though a Wayland back'
recovered and made a short return a loss
of twenty-two yards resulted. Estes then
returned Batchclor's 27 yard punt 25 yards
placing the ball within a few yards of the
goal. The Cowboys wero hard pressed for i
time however and were unable to count
before the half Was up three passes fall-
ing in succession. Just as the ball went
6vcr and two attempts at the Simmons
line gained qno yard the whistle blew
Score -at the end of' first half Simmons
21 Wayland 0.
Wright opened' the second half by kick-
ing off' 55 yards and Wayland returned
twenty. After two line plunges had ad-
vanced the ball only four yards they
tried a pass and Kimbrough intercepted
making a 5-yard return. Bucks by Camp
and Adams made a first down .but three
more by the same men failed by inches to
make the required distance. Wayland
chose to punt without a single attempt to
gain and Batchclor booted the ball thirty
yards. Estes was unable to make a return.
After Camp had failed to gain around
end and Estes had hit right tackle for .3
yards Kimbrough sent a thirty-two yard
pass 16 Wright. Despite of the fact that
"two of liis Opponents were on cither side
of him. Wright leaped in the air and
snatched the pass placing- the ball with-
in a few yards of the goal. After advancing
the ball with difficulty almost by inches
within one foot of the goal Estes finally
carried it over for the fourth touchdown.
The pass to score the ono point barely
failed. Score 27-0.
Wright sent the ball over the goal posts
but the Wayland back chose to return
rather than take the twenty yards and
carried the ball to the eighteen yard line.
Three plunges netted seven yards but
when the Wayland quarter called for a
pass Camp intercepted and carried the
ball back four yards. Two line bucks
netted only two yards and then on the
next play Wright sent a pretty pass sail-
ing to Kimbrough who made equally as
pretty a catch' and stepped over the three
remaining yards for the fifth touchdown.
The try at the goal failed. Store 33-0.
Wright's kick-off again soared over the
goal line just as the third quarter ended.
Daniels opened the final period with a
nine yard dash through center and after
another had failed tq gain again took the
ball and made it first down. A little later
Daniels' 8-yard run could not make up
for a five yard loss just beforehand and
Batchelor punted 32 yards Kimbrough re-
turning four. Camp took a 12 yard pass
and carried it 7 yards. Adams circled
left end for eight more and Johnson made
t another first down. A pass netted 5
yards Adams hit the line for two and
on the next play Gibson received a pass
for the final touchdown. Gibson was al-
ready over the line when he .caught the
pass. Kimbrough kicked-goal. Score 40-0.
Wayland kicked off 45 yards and Camp
brought it back 35. Camp gained 2 yards
at the line and a pass from Kimbrough to
Adams netted twenty yards. A line buck
an end run and an attempted pass all
failed to gain anything and Johnson punt-
ed seding the ball out of bounds within a
few yards of Wayland's goal. Batchelor
punted back 50 yards and no return was
made. A pass Kimbrough to Camp ad-
vanced the ball 14 yards. A fumble fol-
lowed and Camp .recovered. Kimbrough
went through center for 3 yards and Camp
received a ten yard pass on the next' play.
A signal for a pass blew up and Simmons
lost 6 yards Johnson lost 4 yards Kim-
brough failed at the line and Johnson
punted again out of bounds on Wayland's
25 yard line. Wright threw a Wayland
back for a three ?ard loss. Then a pass
netted the Jackrabbits 18 yards and when
another pass was attempted and 'failed the
game ende.d. Final score: Simmo'ns 40
