TENNIS SQUAD
TO ENGAGE IN
NET TOURNEY
The Howard Payne Tennis squad
although somewhat weaker than here-
tofore will motor over to the city
from whence hail the Cowhands to
make their attempt at repeating the
tennis victories won by the Payne's
netters in the past. Although no
Arnspigers nor Canadys appear on
the Payne squad still there is enough
material to do some good should the
players finally make up their minds
to do a?.
Fleld.i Hines ranking number one
player is a netter of more or less ex-
perience having been on the squad
in 1929. If he should get bis stride
during the first point and hold that
stride throughout the match without
letting up there is no telling just
what Hines could do.
Glynn Raley ranking number two
is going through his battle of fire this
being his first year in college compe-
tition. In the Conference meet
should Raley strike his stride he
should also do so some good.
Ward Smith ranking number three
although new to college tennis is
one of those kind who never let up
until the last ball is smashed. He
should really give someone some com-
petition at Abilene Thursday and Fri
day.
Roger Chambers number four
man although inexperienced in col-
lege tennis is game as a rooster. He
keeps pecking even though oods are
against him.
Fields Hines is paired with Roger
Chambers for first string doubles;
Ward Smith and Glynn Raley take on
the second squads.
Bills Must Be
Paid Are Words
Of Cap Shelton
According to announcements made
in chapel Monday "Cap" Shelton
business manager of the college plans
on securing several shekels before the
finals start in two weeks. The genial
track mentor issued forth orders that
all bills against student tuition must
be settled up in one week or no exam
cards would be issued to any individ-
ual failing to settle up.
Already there are many students
wondering this and wondering that
and when one asks them what is on
their minds the reply is always: "How
am I going to pay that bill?" The new
plan is being tried this term for the
first time. Heretofore students could
rush up one or two hours before the
final was to take place hurriedly set-
tle up and take it but under the new
plan the student must have taken
care of his bill at least three days
before the day of exams.
To make it more stringent accord
ing to "Cap" he will be out of town
two days this week when the track
team goes to Abilene to meet the oth
er Texas Conference schools in the
annual Conference meet Thursday and
Friday.
Consequently the motto: Never put
off until tomorrow what you can do
today seems altogher fitting and pro
per in these trying times.

Lympings from
The Olympics
By Leonard Horwin
"If the Organizing Committee of
the Xth Olympiad of 1932 won't give
me a job as guardian of the Olympic
Stadium gates I'll stake my last dime
against all comers that I'll crash the
gates."
'One-Eye' Connolly whom Ted Cook
titles the "King of Gate-Crashers"
the world-famous hero of 30 years of
gate-crashing exploits now looking a
bit the worse for rough handling by
Old Man Hard Luck tossed the above
verbal bombshell into the Los Angeles
offices of Olympic officialdom and in
the presence of your correspondent.
J. F. MacKenzie manager of ticket
sales for the Xth Olympiad when ad-
vised of Connolly's bold challenge ac-
cepted it with quiet confidence.
"I accept the challenge of the great
'One-Eye' Connolly and will stake an
amount equal to his on the outcome.
As one segment of the Xth Olympiad
Organizing Committee we feel that
the Ticket Department is fool and
trick-proof."
To back up his answer with hard
facts the challenged official took us
on an inspection tour through the
ticket sanctuary just opened at a
ner west of Chicago a sanctuary as
block's distance from the busiest cor-
amazing in its completeness and effi
ciency as fascinatin gin its intric-
acy. They Had No Worry
Not faced with the rigors of the
modern world the ancient sporting
bloods who watched the entrance to
the sacred Altis on the banks of the
Kiver Alpheus admitted all gratis
that is all except women. Neither
Zeus nor his male worshippers would
permit the pettinesses of femininity
amid ceremonies of such deep religi
ous significance as the Olympic
Games.
One seat of honor however was
reserved for the revered priestess of
Demeter Goddess of Earth and Good
Crops a piece of ancient "apple-polishing"
as It were.
Women were the only 'One-Eye'
Connollys of that day; and the male
guardians got around that hurdle by
requiring the Olympic participants to
appear in the nude.
The Modern Way
The guardian of the Olympic gates
in 1932 will erect no bars of sex in
the face of the entering throng. His
sole Interest will be 15 tons of beauti-
fully steel-engraved tickets delivered
to the patron In souvenir leather
pocket cases on which sixty printers
and engravers have been working six
months. The printing of each of these
tickets costs as much as the printing
of a U. S. twenty-dollar bill and they
sell at prices from 25 to 40 per cent
lower than any in modern Olympic
history.
On the ticket's face stands the offi-
cial motif the laurelled Olympic ath-
lete. His predecessor in the ancient
day may be seen in marble at a half-
hour jaunt from tlje Olympic Stadium
In the enchanting gardens of the fa-
mous Huntingdon Library and Art
Galleries nestling In the shadow of
Mount Wilson and housing the "Blue
Boy" and other priceless treasures a
cultural Mecca to many of the Olym-
pic visitors.
In the pre-Olympic rush 200 highly
trained maidens will stand ready to
supply tickets for 2500000 reserved
seats to 135 different programs and
to serve patrons speaking at least six
different languages if necessary. One
self-auditing central accountant ma-
chine a mechanical marvel construct-
ed specially for use in the Xth Olym-
piad will be recording the exchange
of millions of dollars for vouchers
and printing automatically an Incred-
ible amount of Information on each.

thing or two that might be worth
mentioning about golf and tennis. Mr.
Hutto has a right nice young bunch
of racquet wielders all recruits who
are liable to make a right nice show-
ing. Don't any of you go off mad if
they don't win the conference because
they will be up against a tough group
from Austin College. We have it
straight that they have one man for
first singles who is a wow. And
everything about the tennis team is
new except Big Mac and Sewell.
