The T-C basketball and lootball
teams have for several years brought
much favorable publicity to Denton
and the college, and now some of
the most favorable and widespread
publicity is coming to both through
the track team. Big shots in track
team circles believe that Coach
Sportsman has devetoped a group
__ that is near certain to carry of
first honors in the mile, two miles
and medley. The two Browns, the
two Rideouts, Morgan and Chris-
man have already .performed some
wonders on the track and give
promise at even greater feats. At
the New Orleans meet recently,
Denton was heard on every side and
the publicity gained through that
track meet was of the kind that
couldn't be bought.
Rideout broke the Southern rec-
ord by twelve seconds and lacked
only a little of tieing the world rec-
ord held by Lash. whom he defeated
at New Orleans. Hie race was ran
on a watery course and those pres-
ent believe he would have busted
the world time had the race been
run on dry ground.
Invitations from colleges over the
entire nation have come to the T-C
track men, but it is more than likely
that Coach Sportsman wont ac-
cept many of them, as he’s watch-
ing carefully the development of

— (AP)—A ruling on consti-

the Federal Social Security
Act—that levying a tax on
employers for the benefit of '

legislation and dismissing his com- l

but is sometimes permitted in cases
of great public importance.
