Well, folks, they’ve done it up
there as the University of Texas, j
For the next ten years, we're told. !
Mr. Dana Xenophon Bible will ]
handle the destinies of athletics at
the state school. The former Ne-
braska mentor is regarded as one j
of the, nation s leading pigskin
coaches and the addition of him to |
the Texas coaching staff was re-
ceived with great acclaim by j
alumni.
Mr. Bible it is said, will receive j
something like $15,000 a year for!
the ten year term and his accept-
ance. which is not yet formal, puts
him on the spot. His ability is
well known, however^jlor he has j
turned out six conference champ-
ionship teams in his eight years at
I Nebraska and coached five Texas
! A. & M. teams to as many champ-
' ionships over an 11-year period.
Texas’ new athletic director is
j welcomed even more by the alumni
I due to the unusually poor showing
j of Longhorn teams during the •
• regime of Jack Chevigny. On the !
other hand, unless Bible's charges ■
make at least a fair showing next
| fall, there’ll be those who’ll want to
get rid of him. Bible has evidently
submitted his terms to the Board
. of Regents and they’ve taken him
j up—so Ole D. X. has put himself
cm the spot. We say he’ll deliver.

The regents offered Alible a 10-
year contract, but the amount of
salary was not announced immed-
iately.
Abatement said the remuneration
would be “commensurate" with the
responsibilities
It also said Bible’s acceptance w'as
expected within a few days.
LEAVES TONIGHT
Bible himself issued the following
statement;
“We had a fine conference at Aus-
tin. The conditions presented and in
which all groups are in accord are
most satisfactory.
“I prefer to appear before the Ne-
braska authorities before formal ac-
ceptance is announced. I will re-
quest a meeting with Chancellor
Burnett and the athletic board Sat-
urday morning.”
He planned to leave Austin to-
night.
Dr. H. Y. Benedict, president of
the University of Texas, said he
was in accord with the selection of
Bible and pledged his fullest co-op-
eration.
TWO-DAY CONFERENCE
“I sun in accord with him, I be-
lieve that he has a very fine atti-
tude and the highest ideals with
reference to intercollegiate sports
combined with a capacity to give his
views full effect.*
“Assuredly I shall give him my
fullest co-operation in the dis-
charge of his responsibilities."
The announcement was made af-
ter the regents had been in con-
ference with Bible intermittently for
two days.
It was believed Bible’s salary
would be $15,000 a year, but none
would officially confirm that figure.

In the words of Patsy Kelly—it
| could happen to anybody.
A lady who had given a dinner
party met her doctor on the street
the following day and stopped to
speak to him.
“I’m sorry, doctor” she said,
“that you were unable to come to
my dinner party last night. It
would have done you good to be
there.”
“It has already done me good/’
replied he. “I have just prescribed
for three of the guests.”
<jays when, if he has finally ac-
cepted, he will announce his assist-
ants. He did not say who his as-
sistants would be.
Dr. J. C. Dolley, chairman of the
athletic council said regular spring
fcotball training would start under

AUSTIN, Jan. 22.—(INS)—Selec-
tion cf Dana X. Bible as the Uni-
versity of Texas coach was hailed
by Governor James V. Allred today
«S mighty fine. “Texas deserves the
best possible coach and now we’ve
got him," said the governor. “Bible
is not only a fine coach, he’s a fine
man.”
But the governor didn’t care to
get into the question of whether
the president’s salary, $8,000. should
be boosted up to a level with the
athletic director’s, reputed to be
$15,000.
“The president.” he said, “should
be paid a salary commensurate with
his position.
Guess we owe local school auth-
orties our apologies on account of
some weeks ago we started putting
them on the pan for not having
awarded sweaters to football letter-
men. out there at Cuero High. Only
this morning, however. we see
where 22 men on the Regional
Championship Yoakum Bulldog
team were awarded their letters,
thus indicating Cuero is not so
very far behind some other schools.
By the by, wonder when those
sweaters for the 1936 Gobblers
will arrive?
Dances, parties and musical and
lecture programs are the most pop-
ular extra-curricula activities
among young women at John Tarle-
ten Agricultural College, a survey
by senior English students at
Tarleton indicates.
See where Sam Baugh is also a
ladies’ man. 1216 girls of C. I. A.
voted Sam their favorite South-
west Conference football player^
and gave him a Gladstone bag in'
token of their appreciation. The
girls also announced that their
award will be an annual one.

The article beow is clipped from
the Sedan, Kansas, Advertisnc
Journal:
An editor and a merchant were
discussing the virtue of billboard
advertising. The merchant con-
tended that more people read the
billboard than the newspaper. Af-
ter neither would give in they both
departed.
The next week the merchant
came down the street to the news-
paper office and wanted to know
why the obituary of his wife’s
mother was not in the paper, es-
pecially after he had seen that a
copy was taken to the newspaper
office.
“Well,” said the editor, ‘1 knew
you warded the obituary read by I
the people, so I took it out and
nailed it 4p on your billboard.”
Despite rising. manufacturing costs,
we have not increased prices of gen-
uine I. E. S. Better Sight Lamps. If

prices so low, we urge immediate pur-
chase. V X
Talk about Buying-Power! Look at these figures.
Every year—more than $1,376,978.06 are spent in
stores.
In Cuero—every person buys at an
annual average rate of $294.73 (as
compared with the average rate of
$165.78 per person for Texas). Bigger
sales opportunities exist for every
merchant in this city.
DON'T MAKE
This sum represents $602,45400 more than the average
672 Texas people spend in their stores.
Profits are counted not by number of individuals but by OU'
number of dollars they spend. Greater Buying-Power awaits
the newspaper advertising of every Cuero merchant.
The only time Madison Square
Garden, when it was headed by
Tex Rickard, took a financial
“header,’ was on June 6, 1928,
when Gene Tfinney made his final
fight as champion against Tom
Heeney. The. gross receipts were
only $($1,014 Tunney was guar-
anteed $525,000 and Heeney $100,-
000—regardless.
From the gross of $691,014 had
to be deducted state and federal
tax of $142,148.50, ball park rental
of $50,000. incidental expenses $60-
000.
Rickard admitted a lass of
“around $200,000”—his first real !
setback as a promoter.
The Garden, under leadership of
Wm. F. Carey, lost at least $60,000
when it promoted the Max Schmel- j
ing-William L. “Young” Stribling
bout in Cleveland, July 3. 1931,
when the gross receipts reached
only $349,415 and the net $265,345

Consider the facts. It’s “Money Population” that makas
bigger sales! The size of your newspaper advertising de-
termines what part of this extra Buying-Power comes into
vour store!
Carl Wagner says anyone can
read between the lines, but it takes
a smart man to write between the
lines. Wagner later admitted he
never writes letters.
