ssssI{ Mex. week.

Manager o. e. Gammill of the
Bryan.College interurban gave out
some very encouraging news relative
to the road to representative Of The
Eagle today. Mr.. GammiIl stated that
he had large force OF hands at work
|on the extension at the A. and NJ. Coz
lege The line is being extended from
the old terminal near Gathright Hall
to the drill grounds. This extension
win mean much TO the student body,
to the residents on the east side of
the campus, and to visitors from
Bryan and other places who go out
to entertainments in the chapel, to
the commencement exercises and the
various events on the athletic field.
This work, Mr.. Gammill stated,
would be completed this week. and
next week the teams and men will be
brought to town and work begun on
the extension 10 Allen Academy and
Villa Maria. This will be Welcome
news indeed to the schools and to the
residents OF the Eastside. Work on
this extension will be pushed just as
rapidly as possible to completion.
This extension will be made with
all the requirements for electrical
equipment, and in this connection Mr..
Gammill says there is no question but
that the line will be electrified. The
stock subscription has advanced far
enough to make It a certainty that
the deal will go through. Just as soon
as the subscription is closed the ma
terial and equipment will be ordered,
and 1t is thought the change can be
made in three or four months at the
outside from the time the material is
ordered.
Rapid transit is an absolute neces.
sity between Bryan and the college,
and with an electric line the service
will be absolutely guaranteed and
complete confidence restored. 1t will
be a great convenience indeed. and its
benefit to both places will be beyond

Governor Eberhart, in his first reply
to attacks made upon his administra-
ton by Lieutenant Governor Gordon
and other of his political opponents,
issued a statement to the press charg-
ing that Gordon's failure to cooperate
with the administration resulted in
the defeat of reapportionment, read
justment of railroad rates and the
statewide primary bill.
BY inference the governor charges
that Gordon and other members of
the legislature brought about the de-
feat of beneficial legislation he had
recommended in a selfish effort to fur
Their their own political fortunes. The
governor points to the record of his
administration and declares that he is
