The university students were dumb

Gates that it was a hard fought battle.
The forward pass was worked contin-
ually by the Arizona boys, with a great
deal of success. In fact, it was by this
means that most of their gains were
made.
The stonewall defensive program of
the Aggies could not be overcome by
bucking.
AriZona's team this year is depending
upon going around the end and for
ward passes. rather than bucking; in
asmuch as the weight is lacking. This
is but the second time that goal has
been scored against Arizona, the Po-
mora team being the first to succeed in
this line. Captain Porter could have a
number of times kicked a goal, there
by tying the score, but they always
tried for a touchdown by the forward
pass method, and failed at the crucial
period
Great preparations are being made
for the Thanksgiving game against
Whittier. Last year witnessed the
most enthusiastic support by the peo-
pie of Tucson ever accorded to the
University. This year extra bleacher
space is being provided, and a crowd of

ROAD SHORTLY
For Another Coat Of Oil ;
State Highwey Is to Be
Cut During Fair Week ;
May Interfere With Road
Race

Under the direction of State En-
ginecr Lamar Cobb, the work of apply
ing a second coat of oil to the Tempe
highway will be started 1t is expected
that it will take three days, one mile
of the road being closed to traffic each
day.
This will be the second treatment of
oil which the road has received, the
first having been put on about two
months ago This time the oil will be
put on in a thin coating, each square
yard to receive one-fourth of a. gallon.
This oiling is in reality a part of the
first coat of the highway as the speci-
fications call for two thin coatings of
oil to the surface. The first coat proved
very satisfactory as a dust layer and
it is thought that this second applica-
ton will be good for a period of per-
haps a year.
About twenty-five men will be used
on the job. Mr.. Cobb states that there
was some opposition to closing portions
of the road to traffic during fair week.
but the matter could not be remedied
as financial conditions made it neces-
