A Pi Room Found
A coUple of the math 540 boys
gdt stuck Tuesday when Wr, Leigh-
ton, lecturer, forgot to unnounee on
the bulletin board the place of the
first class meetinir ut 9 u. in. But
pure reason saved the day.
Investigating the board ut 8:58,
and finding no room number posted,
the boys swung out to determine the
number by one of the more ubstruct
varieties of mathematics. Said they:
•'Consider the most important nu-
merical constants. They arc 0, 1, t,
ftj and e, linked by the equation e
to the Ipi power plus 1 equals 0. It
.could not lie Itonm 1, 0, or i, because
there aren't any such rooms. It could
not he u because e - 2.71, and there
'aren't 71 rooms on any floor. But
! p| .'1.14, anil the only Kopin 3,14
J Is u small one , in the Chmnistry
Buiiiling especially suited to the
needs of math 540, Lety try it."
'the class was there, and; after
some preliminary definitions they
went to work to prove that there is
no whole 'number1 between 0 and 1.
At the end ut' the hour this proof
Was 'postponed until next time.

insofar as helpful, and intelligent
participation in a democracy is eon-
ccr'ned. 1
The professional psychologists,
drawn from most of the universities
uf the country,"were considerably
easier on the public. Eighty per cent
of them held that only 10 per cent
of tiie population was incapable of
democratic action'. , 1: \
iiiixty per eent ol' the'students Re-
lieved that full realization of social
security; in othe,r Words, more jobs,
less unemployment, health insurance,
pensions and adequate wages, would
decrease the ambition and energy' of
the employe^ and their kin. Only 15
per ct'nt of the trained psychologists
so held. Eighty-seven per cent of
Students held that individual compe-
tition was socially necessary or bio-
logically inherited in successful in-
dustrial life, while only 44 per cent
of Lhe trained, psychologists, 'held that,
this was true. However, the students
appear to have somewhat reversed
themselves ofi competition generally.
Ninety-oiie per cent of them consid-
ered it necessary to a successful so-
ciety as against, (14. per .cent of the
trained psychologists.
Twenty-four per cent of the stu-
dents held, that the. superior people
in Our culture are justified in domi-
nating affairs by force. Seventy per
cent of the psychologists voted oth-
erwise.

There wa.s quite a bit of discus-

Centenary pulled on liice in the last
half. As you remember, the passes

surrounded by several more players
Who were then in a perfect position
to lead intorferance.
This is by no means a new play,
but- it wie surprising because one
of the iwore important rule changes
of this year wets created expressly
for : the pui'pmw of elMninating this
very play. The new rule forbids any
'pUt.y-.ej: other. thaP: ain end Or back-
field lira it to cross .the line of, scrlm-
thage for any purpose other than
tn hlin-R ui)t the : opposing lineman
until the pit's* js eoinplete. Of cuurse
s-hi- makes :t a violation of tihe t'uHls
fyr si .itroup of linemen to go down
tli'' field with the pass receiver and
counts so to speak. At least in ' mm
part of the country. Over in Louisi-

I.tmghorns Cpset Wisconsin
Perhaps the, greatest upset by a
Southwest team this past week was
Texas' stunning upset of Wisconsin.
R ,B. Patrick joined the; Longhoriis'
parade of .sophomore stars, which is
being led by, sensational Jack Crane,
when he sparked a: touchdown dnve
i In the third period, Havif1 carried thti:
ball over and Texas ledH-0.
A few minutes later a quick kick
placed the Badgers in dangerous ter-
ritory and Texas scored a safety
when they Caught the runner behind
his goal line. When thev again got
the ball the Longhorns scored on
Crain's 87-yard run and converted.
I.ate in the fourth qua', te.', after
poor punting had again cost, the
Badgers a safety, Wisconsin scored
on a passing march and converted,
making the final score 17-7.
Baylor Takes Oklahoma Aggies
A new passing combination of Witt
to Barnes was uncovered by Baylor j
as they beat Oklahoma A; and M. j
I:l-0. While the . invincible Baylor de-
| fense, yet to yield a touchdown this
! year, was holding A. and M. in },ts
own territory pradtieally the whole
| game, Witt was bombarding the
(.'owlio.vs with enough passes and
■ ground gains to score a two touch-
down victory.
Baylor scored once: in the first pe-
riod after, a (57-yard march was cli-
maxed by a pass from Witt to Barries
from the 2:j, Witt seoi-ed in the
third after Barnes blocked a. punt On
the Oklahoma 19 and a pass Witt to
Barnes had moved the ball to the
eight.
Aggies Win In Sail Francisco
Out in San Frnnci^eo, the Aggies
overhauled a three-point lead ill the
last quarter to doWti Santa CUim Hi
a nrttiSiipg defensive battle.
For thtVe iiuai'ters it: Was so.e-^iw.1
Then Siinta Clara recovered when
Coiinaster fumbled on his own IS.
The Bronchos were penalized fifteen
yards for an intentionally grounded
pa.^s, and Johpsoi) booted a iierfecf
field goal from the U2. .
This set the Aggies off arid after
taking the ball on their own,'2d in
the fourth quarter, it took just seven
plays to reach the end of the rain-
bow, Featured in the barrage was
the Pugh to Moser pass which set
up the touchdown and the One from
Pugh to Thomson from the l'.l which
beat the Bronchos.
Particularly impressive was the
impregnable Aggie defense which al-
lowed only four first downs and a
total of about 100 yards net from
both running and passing.
