Centra! High School wiH meet the
strong eleven from South Park High
of Beaumont tomorrow morning on
Rice Field. The contest wit) start
promptly at 10 o'clock.
Central had an easy time defeating
the Eagle Lake lads last Saturday
and ran up 30 points in the first half.
In the last half, however, the Eagle
Lake team rallied and the Centralites
were unable to score a single point.
The final score was 30 to 0.
In the second period, Coach Sher-
man's pupils dashed over Eagle
Lake's goal line for four touchdowns
and 24 points. Long end runs and
forward passes featured this quarter.
Line plunges also gained considerably
for the Centralites.
Of the five touchdowns made by the
Houston aggregation three were
made by Tom Sawyer, clever half-
back, one by Brunson, and one by
"Punk" Cumming. Sawyer played a
brilliant game throughout. Centra!
was weak on the try for points and
did not make a single extra tatty.
The Eagie Lake tads fought hard,
especially in the last half, when their
piaying outshone that of the Orange
ami Black warriors. The tast two
quarters were rather stow and tacked
the punch an ! drive of the first hatf
of the battle.
Thomas Xey starred for the vis-
itors. Hepiavedagtiod game and
was materiattyastisted by his team-
mates. with some pretty interference
which netted the Eagte Lake gang
some substantial gains.

Students at Rice are taking advan-
tage of the nearness of Hermann Park
Municipal Golf Course this fall, and
are beginning to spend their after-
noons, as welt as their money, on the
links.
Rice is probably the only university
in the Southwest having an 18-hole
gotf course within a few hundred
yards of the campus. To those stu-
dents who have not the time or who
are not physically capable of partici-
pating in footbal! and basketball, golf
furnishes a pastime into which com-
petitive skill may enter, at the same
time affording an opportunity for less
strenuous exercise.
Gotf batts, ctubs and other sporting
equipment may be purchased or rent-
ed at the clubhouse, tocated at the
first tee.
Sporting goods houses are making
special offers to Rice students in bags,
ctubs and other equipment.
