Where ardent football followers usu-
ally ask the eoacliefi who Is Kolng to
Ktart in the barklleld, the question
is quite different up in Dallus, the
home of the wandering S. M. V. Mus-
tanfiH. There tlie.v a«k, "Who 1st going
to i>iicl> today?"
* * *
After watching the Ponies open up
with tin ir dazzling aerial attack, this
seems lik a very appropriate ques-
ion. They certainly do loss that pig-
skin about the Held like it was a. base-
ball, and tii make matters worse they
have a group of swell outfielders who
have a knack of catching the oval
every now and then.
VVhetht'i the hoys are av.ure ut it or
nor, it is n well known fact among
the girls of the Institute that the
Owls lime on their football squad two
of the taost li.itiilsonie players ill the
sJo'itlitti-' cinu'eionce. We refer here

Texas Longhorn Conquerors
Crushed 32-0 by
Mustangs
Coach Jack Meagher's IMce Owls
took a decisive defeat last Saturday
when the S. M. Lr, aerial circus in-
vaded Houston. The Mustangs went
home with a 32 to 0 victory.
Mustang players had everything
Saturday. Their passes could not be
improved upon, and their running
game was excellent. The Ponies are
said to play a lilt and miss brand of
| football, and Saturday mus t have
I been their day to hit, for they certain-
: iy did hit, drive, pass and do every-
' thing else- that could gain yardage.
Led by Gilbert and Travis In the
backfleld, and their All-American end.
; Louie l.ong, the Mustangs passed bril-
liantly against on Owl eleven which
' did not play up to its usual form,
i Long scored the first touchdown on
"a tin-yard pass )n the second quarter.
Ail of the too numerous Pony touch-
i downs came either (lireetly or Indi-
1 reelly as the result of passes: how-
ever. the follies gained much yard-
age on some neat end runs and
[plunges through the tine.
A basket pass.into the reuwr of the
line caused the OwIs much trouble at
the first. This was responsible for
many good gains before the Owl for-
■ wards could fathom the trick.
The Owl tans got a thrill out of the
, first quarter, ihe only period in which
the follies failed to (ally The Mils
i tangs, chiefly on passes advanced the
