A Little Explaining
Some of the predictions need a lit-
tle explanation; The Owls should play
as good ball as the Tigers. The Owls
have been under fire once this season
and Coach Meagher knows what to
expect from each man. L. S. U, Will
be playing their first game and a
team always is weaker in their first
contest. Besides the Owl players are
in a dangerous mood. They say the
public has underrated their ability.
Texas Tech lias another powerful
eleven this year and should take the
Mustangs into camp but Coach Morri-
son's team may turn the tables. T. C.

er game* should be comparitively easy
for the conference elevens.
Lagow and Sylvester
The Owls have two outstanding men
after the first game. They are Fay
Lagow, scrappy little guard who made
all-conference last year, and Lechle
Sylvester, sophomore end, who showed
class against T. A., & I., last week.
Both played heads up ball while they
were in. Lagow did some beautiful
blocking when Letts went over for
the touchdown. Sylvester did some
fine pass snatching.
Record Crowd
TWo records were broken for ticket
sales this week. The seven thousand
funs who saw the game Saturday set a
record for opening day attendance. The
other record was set when over two
thousand season tickets were sold. The
Owls must be getting more popular in
the homo pastures.
The Heat
The heat may be hard on the foot-
ball players but the soda pop boys
say unanimously: "Give us some more."
Reports show that they did a land-of-
fice business Saturday. Many veterans
were on the job but new contestants
eased their way into many vacancies.
A Champion
Lo, a new champion. This time a
Freshman takes the tight. Frank Steen
better known as Frankenstein claims
all honors in singing bass notes. He
sounds so good that the man who in-
vented the bass note committed sui-
cide after listening to Steen's Perform-
ance. Steeii is out for Freshman foot-
ball and hails from Forest High School
in Dallas.

Coach Ernie Hjertberg expressed
much optimism about the prospects of
the cross country team for this year.
With fourteen men reporting Coach
Hjertberg hopes to round out a team
that will be a strong contender in the
conference race for the next few years.
Team members who have reported
are as follows: T. W. Stalworth, cap-
lain, and W. J. Crawford, seniors; Con-
rad Luekle, Bud Eiser, Leslie Le-
Grand, Gready, juniors; Smokie Broth-
ers, V. Wilson J. Clark ,j. Ziegler,
L. Pontello, L. Horner, Greer, H.
Griggs, sophomores.
The team's strength lies with the
sophomores. Most of the harriers
showed good form in the early work-
outs. If all the candidates stick to-
gether Coach Hjertberg hopes to de-
velop a real cross-country team for the
first time in history of the Institute.
Meets have already been arranged
with Texas University. A. and M. and
S. M. U, Coach Hjertberg hopes to
arrange other meets with other con-
ference teams before the conference
meet. The Owl harriers will first
journey to Austin to meet the Steers
there on October 28th. They will meet
the Aggies here on November 18.
The first meet is with S. M. U. on
October 14 in Houston.

Tobaccos grown in
this country are "seasoned"
with tobaccos from
Turkey and Greece
THE ANSWER IS VERY SIMPLE:
TOBACCOS to taste right in a
cigarette need to be flavored or
seasoned just the same as you might
season a steak or a pudding.
No tobaccos have ever been found
that equal the spicy aromatic tobac-
cos of Turkey and Greece for this
purpose. That's why we send 4000
miles for aromatic tobaccos from Sam-
soun and Smyrna,Xanthi and Cavalla.
When blended and cross-blended
in just the right amounts with Chest-
erfield's mild ripe Domestic tobac-
cos, the result is a rich flavor and a
fine fragrance.
Chesterfields are seasoned right—
they taste right. May we suggest
you try them.

Owls EkeOut
7-0 Win Over
mas
Rice blew the lid off the 1838 foot-
ball season Saturday by defeating the
Texas A. and I Javellnas from Kings-
vllle, 7 to 0. The Owls passed up an
opportunity to score in the first quar-
ter when the Javelina line braced and
held for downs on the 11-yard line.
Another chance was messed up by a
fumble on the Javelina two-yard line.
The Owls started their scoring drive
late in the third quarter. Frazier of
T. A. and I. booted the ball to the
Owl 40-yard line. Connelley picked
up nine yards on the first play and
Mueller made it first down as the
quarter ended.
Connelley started off the fourth
quarter by ripping off 14 yards through
tackle. Mueller and Connelley, work-
ing behind perfect interference, placed
the ball in scoring position on the 22-
yard line. Mueller took it to the 11-
yard line, from where Letts plunged
over right guard for the counter. Muel-
ler converted the extra point.
The Owls made 10 first downs to the
Javelinas' five. They completed two
passes for a total gain of 25 yards.

During the summer workmen were
busy repaifipg, painting, and building
the grandstands. The visitors' gallery
has received a bright new coat of

come in for their share of repairs and
painting.

students and boosters will be seated in
the largest section, in Section F; vis-
itors will have the east section! and
the section to the north of the field
