Last Friday, July 13, Pres. Birdwell
of the Stephen F. Austin Teachers Col-
lege was the main speaker of the even-
ing at the weekly meeting of the
schoolmasters club. Prof. Birdwell is
an educator of the first rank in the
State of Texas and he spoke from a
period of thirty years experience of
school work. The trend of the inter-
esting talk was: Sell yourself to your
school work. The three main points
in the talk were: You must sell your-
self to believe in education, sell
your knowledge of school work to the
best advantage, and sell yourself to
help the life of the community.
Every teacher must believe in educa-
tion and believe it strong enough to
keep at the job for a time sufficiently
long enough to do some good for the
educational world. Although the pri-
mary object of education is to enlight-
en the people, it must not be overlooked
that a strong belief in your line of
work will eventually pay you.
To sell your knowledge of school
work to the best advantage, one must
introduce all the new educational ideas
and present them in such a way that
the school will be enthusiastic about
them.
The last point touched upon was the
connection existing between the com-
munity and the school. The modern
trend of the school teacher has been
to talk in the technical language of the
educator and not make himself clear
the community as a whole. This is
one of the main reasons that the com-
munity is checked in it’s interest in the
school work. To get the maximum
response from a community, the teacher
must present the issues in plain fact
and not in statistics.
Among the other interesting numbers
on the program of the club, Mr. Harri-
son’s reading stood out preeminently.
The poem was written in the Swedish
dialect by which we all know Prof.
Harison. The poem was altogether ap-
propriate for the occasion.
A Pedagogues Apologia Pro Vita Sua.
Oh, manny time I wonder ’bout
Da state of teachin’ men,
And manny time I worry at
Da feex dat he dss in.
“Dey” say dat he iss crazy nut
And poke at heem mooch fun—
And yat he work so hard like hal
And don’t have blanty mon’.
Dese oder men dey haf gude time
And rake in lots o’ cash
And ride aroun’ in ottomobeel
And make great beega mash!
But pedagouge he ant no good
He always iss ignored—
He mostly walk unless he gat
Da best he can—a-Ford.
Da merchant man he sail mooch good,
And put his mon’ avay;
Da lawyer tall a tousand lies
And for dis gat good pay;
Da real estate man haf gude time
And sit aroun’ lak drone;
Da doctor whack appendix out
And draw two hundred bone—

TEACHERS COLLEGES’
PRESIDENTS MEET
Dr. Evans Attends Business Meeting
of Teachers Coleges’ Presidents
at Fort Worth.
The Presidents of the Texas Teach-
ers Colleges met in council at the
Westbrook Hotel, Fort Worth, Thurs
day, July 12. Many matters of com
mon interest and concern to these six
colleges were discussed; plans were
laid for the coming year; and a salary
scale was worked out for recommen-
dation to the Board of Regents. A
canvas was made of the enrollment of
the year, both of the long session and
the summer school, of the six col-
leges now in operation, arid more
than fifteen thousand students, exclu-
sive of the training school students,
are enrolled.
The newly appointed member of the
Board of Regents, Fred M. Martin,
manager of Fakes Furniture Co., of
Fort Worth, was host to the presi-
dents at the Westbrook. Prof. Wal-
lace R. Clark of Canyon entertained
the presidents with a luncheon af the
Fort Worth Club.
The presidents were delighted with
Mr. Martin and are quite sure he will
make an enthusiastic, valuable addi-
tion to the Board of Regents.
Doctor Birdwell of the Stephen F.
Austin Teachers College, Nacogdoches,
stated that the new building there
would be ready for school opening in
September, as advertised. As a token
of our regard for this college and to
loaning them Miss Broadfoot and Miss
St. John of our faculty who will be
heads of the departments of physical
education and home economics, re-
spectively.
The list secured Friday from the
Committee on Teachers shows that the
committee has been of great service
in the successful placing of students
in desirable positions. Many of these
were secured directly through the ef-
forts of the committee while in others
the committee acted indirectly.
For the benefit of their fellow stu-
dents who are here now and who will
be here next year, or who will teach
in some other school we cite the fol-
lowing students who have secured the
positions found opposite their names.

Plans are being alid for the fourth
annual river meet to be held at River-
side during the first week in August.
Mr. Jesse Kellam, one of the Direc-
tors of Physical Education for the sum-
mer, will have charge of the gala event.
As was stated in the last issue of the
Star, the meet will be carried off in
grand style. Th e program will consist
of all the standard events included in
a real water meet. Last week only a
tentative schedule was published and
some people took the events to be final.
This was only to give the interested
person some idea as to what to expect
on the regular program. The main pro-
gram will consist of all the regular
events included in a first class water
carnival.
In other columns of this issue there
is a discussion of some of the main
aspirants for the honors acquired in
such a meet. There are some excellent
swimmers in t he summer school and
the competition should prove to be
stiff. All students who are registered
in the College, Sub-College, or Sum-
mer Normal are eligible to enter in
each event.
The contests are not entirely for the
boys for there will be many events in
which the fairer sex will display their
ability as fish. Last year the girls’ con-
tests proved to be as interesting as the
boys’. Most of the stars from last
year’s meet are here in school now, so
it appears to be a fight over each point.
Watch the Star for the dope on the
coming event and in the meantime go
down to Riverside and get in trim for
the approaching contests.

TRINITY QUARTET
APPEAR AT COL.
Plays and Songs Included In Snappy
Program; Typical of College Life
The second term of the twentieth
summer session of the Southwest Texas
State Teachers College began Tuesday.
The enrollment for the summer now
stands at 2075.
This is the greatest enrollment that
the San Marcos Teachers Colleeg has
ever had at one single term. The last
regular session was a banner year with
1290 students. If to this number the
following are added: 1450 credit stu-
dnts, 500 summer normal students, and
125 training school students, a total of
3365 registrants is obtained.
As compared with the year 1921-22
in which the sum total was 2948, the
year 1922-23 shows an increase of some
four hundred students.
By far the most satisfactory feature
of the increased enrollment is the large
percent of credit students, particularly
college students. Of the above 2075
enrolled this summer only 500 are sum-
mer normal students, students who de-
sire to secure certificates by state ex-
aminations.
The following is a list of the new
students enrolled for this term;

Friends, since we prophesied that
Willard would K. O. the big Argen-

Macks fighting kids would cop the Am-
erican League gonfalion, and since our
big mutual friend George Ruth has
failed to live up to mid-season expec-
tations in the line of hitting the ball
for the circuit, we have been kinda
careful in forming our opinion as to
the performance of thorough-breds. But

DAYS OF OLD
SOUTH REVIV-
ED BY PLAY
Prof. Arnold’s Play “A Pair of Boots”
Is Played By Selected Cast Be-
fore Large Crowd.
Elmwood
Wednesday evening, July 18, the
Trinity University quartet entertained
the student body of the Southwest Tex-
as Teachers College with a snappy pro-
gram typical of colleeg life. The audi-
torium was filled almost to capacity by
an enthusiastic cr6wd. Every number
oi the excellent program was presented
in first class form, meeting the ap-
proval of the audience. The boys were
dressed in white. Each wore a red
sash representative of their college
colors.
The personnel of the quartet was:
Fred Meyers, first tenor; J. C. John-
son, second tenor; Charles Dickey,
baritone; James Herring, basso.
The program consisted of popular
songs, intermingled with farces of the
modern type. The first play was titled
“A Pair of Lunatics”. It was a really
true to it’s name. The audience was in
a continuous roar of laughter during
the entire number. Mr. Herring and
Mr. Dickey constitute the cast. The
play was centered around the peculiar
situations of two visitors at the asy-
lum, each thinking the other was an
inmate. Each visitor resorted to ev-
ery way they had ever heard of to keep
the other alleged lunatic consoled. As
the conversation progressed, the predi-
cament of each slupposed lunatic be-
came more complicated. Finally the
two made their respective positions
clear to each other and they decided
that they were really lunatics.
The other farcical number was an at-
tempt at Grand opera, the setting of
which was a fire scene. Mr. Herring
and Mr. Meyers were the main charac-
ters of the opera, while Mr. Johnson
represented the whole orchestra at the
piano. Mr. Dickey, singing the role
oi the janitor proved the hero of the
occasion by informing the distressed
couple that there was a fire. Mr. Mey-
ers, taking the role of the excitable
lady and Mr. Herring the consoler,
could not decide whether or not they
could smell the smoke. The janitor’s
report came just in time to save the
Y. W. C. A. HOLD
MEET THURSDAY
“Do You Really Mean It?” refer-
ring to ithe Lord’s Prayer, was the sub-
ject of the discussion at the Y.W.C.A.
meeting Thursday morning. Lucile
McDermand had charge of the pro-
gram. She asked if the Lord’s Prayer
could really be a part of the program
of each girl present. Those discussing
the various phases of the Prayer were:
Winnie Walton, Gladys Young, and
Allie Price.
Salie Haynes, who has been selected
to serve as president of the Associa-
tion during the second term of sum-
mer school, was introduced to the or-
ganization. Mildred Summers, the for-
mer president, is not in school this
term. Grace Draper is taking the place
of Ruth Reed as vice-president, and
Lillian Addison is filling Frances Potts’
pla-ce as chairman of the service com-
mittee. Enthusiastic plans are being
made for the work of the second term.
Y. W. C. A. meets each Thursday
morning at Assembly period in the
auditorium. All members ar urged to
come, and all women students are in-
vited.
LIVE WIRE BYPU PICNIC
(Continued on page Four)
(Continued on page Four)
Everyone fond of “Pep” should join
with the live members of the BYPU
and share their fun. They live up to
their name of “Live Wire” BYPU.
Last Saturday night about seven p. m.
forty young people met at the Utilities
Company power house and thence hiked
to the he,ad of the river for a real time.
Upon the arrival at the popular picnic
spot a big bonfire was built. Some of
party prepared the “eats”, while others
whetted their appetites by playing
games. After eating supper, exploring
and playing pranks on each other, they
started home, feeling that they had had
one of the most enjoyable times of the
summer.
This picnic is only one of the many
entertainments that the Live Wire
workers are planning for the summer.
Anyone belonging to this group of fine
young people will always count their
time well and happily spent. All of
you students, come out and join a live
organization.
bred that I am better acquainted with
than those aforementioned. These bu-
siness and professional men, who have
their eyes on the Bobcats, are con-
tinually bartering stories with us to
get a little inside information on the
prospects of the Bobcats for the com-
ing season. I’m tempted to disclose a
little for you this week in hope that
it will inspire you fellows to work
just a little harder in getting material
for our coaching staff, and perhaps
some likely prospect will cast his eyes
over the following and feeling the high
estimation in which we hold him, will
redouble his efforts to come himself
and perhaps bring another athletically
inclined friend.
* * * *
Thanks to the efforts of two of our
highly esteemed and valuable Bobcats,
we are to have with us next season
three of the most likely ball chasers in
this section. Baumgarten, Greer, and
Clark of the Gonzales Minute Men
have assented to be members ,of this
institution. To our mind, this boy,
Baumgarten is the class of the out-
fielders in these woods this season, and
with the additional information that
Coach Sheffield will impart to him has
a good chance to mix with the socially
elect in the baseball world. Greer,
none less brilliant, but more reserved,
is the other outfielder who will as-
sist Sheffield to cop the T.I.A.A_. hon-
ors. Clark is a veritable hot-bed of
pep at the third cushion and will bolster
up the infield area to big league pro-
portions.
* * * *
And right here, friends, before we
mention him without introduction again,
we want to present Coach Jim Shef-
field. Coach Sheffield was with us
during the ’22 season and laid the foun-
dation for this year’s team that so
handily took the honors in the T.I.A.A.
circuit. Sheffield is a retired big
leaguer, having played with a number
of teams in class A ball, including
Terre Haute, and Montreal.
We can say from personal ac-
quaintance with Coach Sheffield that
there exist very few men in college
athletics with higher principles and de-
votion to those principles. He is, on
top of his ability to coach, and his
high futhering of principles, one of
the most agreeable coaches that the
writer ever worked for. Coach Shef-
field has definitely assented to be the
pilot of the ‘Cats’ the coming season.
* * * *
Among the ‘finds’ that will report
to Coaches Strahan and Shelton, ac-
cording to Assistant Coach Shands, will
be a lad attending the institution now
who. boots the pigskin variable dis-
tances from forty to sixty yards. We
are in need of a dependable kicker and
hope that Shands has unearthed the
boy who will be the ‘Big Bertha’ of
the association.
* * * *
Among those of past local academic
fame who will attempt the grade to
the first eleven, will be: Dailey of San
Marcos High, and Allen of San Mar-
cos Academy. These boys stood as
the ground gaining aces in their res
pective schools; both are fast, both
have had experience and the opportun-
ity to observe, and should prove suc-
cessful in their attempts to make the
grade.
* * * *
We were surprised to hear the othe?
day that Big Kallina was driven from
the hill while playing with the Far
mersville nine against Bastrop, under an
avalanche of hits. It is said that Ed
was somewhat surprised himself and
wandered over to the opposition’s
bench after the game to get acquainted
with the bunch that could treat him
that way and get away with it. To
his surprise he met Eddie Ciqotte, Joe
Jackson, Happy Felsch, and a num-
ber of others of the old White Sox. Ed
felt relieved as he realized that he had
‘thrown them up’ to some of the best
tossers in the game.
By the way, Farmersville proved to
be a real sport when she recently re-
fused to have anything else to do with
the team that would play ‘Black Soxs’.
* * * *
Among recent visitors to the city
was one, Emmett Shelton, secretary of
the “T” Association. Emmett is do-
ing all in his power to bring the great-
est number of athletes to this institu-
%Professor M. L. Arnold, head of the
Department of History of the South-
west Texas Teachers College, presented
his unique and interesting play, “A
Pair of Boots”, a love story of the
Civil War, at the College auditorium
on last Monday night before a house
that was filled to the top by some 1000
students and people of San Marcos.
The fine Southern air of the play
went over in the most pleasing may.
The old songs, the tumminy banjo, the
old-time darkey, the “nigger” dialect,
the open Southern hospitality, the fine
chivalry of the Old South, all helped
make the play typically Southern. The
cast, very carefully selected and chosen
from 2000 students, did full justice to
the play in its presentation.
The followiny represents the cast:
John Wilkes Booth—Yancy Yarbrough

Approximately 250.00 was realized
from the production. The proceeds go
to the Jack Arnold Student Loan Fund,
which is a source of aid for worthy
students. The fund was first establish-
ed by Prof. M. L. Arnold in honor of
his son, Jack, who v/as killed in the
Argonne during the World War.

good time. We learned some new
games, met some new people and drank
new soda water. Wa/tch for the posters
telling of the next Play Hour. They’re
worth while.

A good program with special music
has been prepared for the Y. W. meet-
ing next Thursday in the auditorium.
Don’t be selfish with yourself. Come
out to the meetings. You learn some-
thing each time, and get a peck of
inspiration. We want you!

FRESHMEN TROUNCE
THE P. E. “FIVE”
Team Headed By Horton Beats Fos-
ter’s Quintet By Score 24 to 15.
(Continued on page Two)
Saturday night the much touted bas-
ketball team composed of the Physical
Education All Stars went down under
the heel of the fast Freshman basket-
eers. Foster of the P. E. five failed
to instill in his men the fight that the
Freshmen five displayed. From the
first of the game it was evident who
would be the winners of the tiff. Fast
team work and accurate basket shoot-
ing on the part of the Freshmen en-
abled them to keep the lead throughout
the game. Although the weather was
slightly warm for such a fast game,
the teams proved to be in pretty good
condition.
The men composing the victorious
Freshmen team were: Horton, Hanks,
Alton Deviney, Jack Deviney, Rhea,
Long, Atkison, and Marshall Gauze.
For the All Stars: Conner, Raymon,
Egg, McBride, Freeman, Foster and
Hill composed the machine.
Much individual playing was dis-
played and some good material fof
the coming Bobcat season was uncov-
ered. The lack of team work of the?
P. E. bunch was the main cause of
their defeat. Hanks and Rhea starred
for the victors while Connor and Free-
man displayed excellent work for the
losers.
This was the second of the series
between the two teams and thus far
they have split even. It remains to be
seen who will prove victorious in the
next and last game of the series. From
all indication Horton’s five show a
little more fight than the team led by
Foster. Perhaps he will endeavor to
work them over before the next encoun-
ter. All students are invited out to see
these interesting games. You do not
even have to bother with the proverb-
ial “Blanket Tax”. Just come right in
and have a seat.
