went down before the fast quint Of New

row margin Of two points, the final
score being New York, 20; Navy. a.
Desperately played from beginning to
end. the game was the finest ever wit
messed in the armory. and the great
crowd Of spectators were kept keyed up
to q high pitch Of enthusiasm until the
final whistle. for one field goal by the
Middies would have tied the score UP
and called for the playing of an extra
period. Their efforts. however. counted
for naught. Though both teams put UP
q great exhibition. tho game might well
be termed a duel between Moore of
New York and Wenzell the Navy crack.

to really be proud of one of

undoubtedly be the one TO draw forth
most honest admiration.
In her early days, Texas was noted
principally for her lawlessness, and
the crimes from which the state was
stained time and again, were often
est committed by alf-breeds", men

The wonderful advantages with
which Nature had so lavishly en-

drawing to it the better element
from the North, West and other por-

Development was swift, and today
the State is a model of what
state may do with a desire to choose
all that is best eivically, in every
portion, and politically, as a State.
In the efforts to lay a solid foun-
dation for the future of the State,
the Texans have begun to realize the
absolute necessity for public school
system that will make the future
men and women OF use and value
