EX-STUDENT BANQUET
With an attendance of some R00 |
persons taxing to full capacity the I
large Crystal Ballroom of the Texas
Hotel, with a coterie of hon >r guests
including State and nationally prom-

nual ex students' banquet of the
North Texas State Teachers ColliTT*
at Fort Worth Friday night was a
success in every particular—and was
a real fixture of the convention
of the Texas State Teachers Associa-
tion. Through the courtesy of the
Fort Worth Star-Telegram the ban-
quet program was broadcast from 7
o'clock to 8:30 and that office report
cd that more telegrams and telephone
calls than the office could handle
were received from ex-students and
friends of the college listening In at
various places, A telegram from Mrs,
IL H. Seerly, wife of President Seer
ley of the Iowa State Teachers Col-
lege, indicated that the pr'igraut was
heard at Cedar Falls, Iowa.
Dr. Seerley’s 15-minutc address,
which opened the speech-making di-
vision of the program was an opti-
mistic presentation of facts and fig-
ures to, show a wholesome education-
al and economic progress and devel-

Sport Followers Facing
Pernicious Inactivity Now
nAv YORK, Dec. 1.—The melan-
choly days of sports are on now
with the sport followers getting
words and not deeds. With the
falling of the football curtain af-
ter a season in which it obliter-
ated almost all other branches of
athletics the insatiable sport lover
looks around to find that in near-
ly every line of endehVor there is
a period of pernicious inactivity
facing him. About the leading
event appears to be a free for all
for press agents. The week-end gos-
sip is about ax follows:
Boxing—Senor Luis Firpo, in far
off Buenos Aires where he has blos-
somed ax a coal and auto mer-
chant, reiterated today in a cable
to^thes-United Press he hAx signed
for a bout with Harry Wills May
5. He claims to have a i
with Tex Rickard. Here in
York the “black panther" end
manager, Paddy Mullins, profess
know nothing of it. Mullins was
looking for anyone to fight Wills
a short time ago but now he -
wants Dempsey t«y weaken and give <
Wills a chance at the title.
RACING—Pierre Wertheimer, i
owner of the crack French 3-year-
old, Epinard, the vernacular for ,
spinach, sails today for America to
try to arrange a aeries of
races for his horse on
Saturdays at distances
from six furloughs to a
a half.
Baseball—The wood

talk of trades

NEW YORK—In denying that he
had any word from Luis Firpe
that the South American has signed
with him to meet Harry Wills, Tex
Rickard offered to “bet a hat” that
Firpo meets t'
fore again tackling Dempsey.
NEW YORK—Discussion contin-
the decision that awarded

night bout with Curl

ROUNDABOUT I o W N 800 ATTEND NTSTC |
(Continued from J’age One)
fact is that the board of., direc-
tors were here just a short time
ago and I laid before them this
entire matter. Your petition will
probably indicate that the board
is not aware of the fact that haz
ing is froing on. Of course, this
is absurd.
"My position is that if there is
any citizen of Texas who is ag-
grieved and wants to be heard
by the board, he is certainly en-
titled to it. I hope that Mr. C. C.
Reynolds will not fail to appear
before the board and . submit all
the facts, as well as to get some
light on the subject that he does
not seem to have. Mr. Reynolds
has persistently stated in the pa-
pers that , jie has furnished the
( ollege with evidence. The fact is
that latter after letter has been
written this man, and one or two
telegrams have been sent him, urg-
ing that he give evidence and up
to date he has failed to do so
“This briefly presents the facts
as they are I wish to thank you
for your letter and the spirit that
prompted it I assure you that the
( ollege authorities are fully awake
to this situation."
