contests Of the University lntorschol-
astic League This league, organized
by DR.. H. D. shurter In 1910 and fos-
tered by the Extension Department OF
the University holds annual county,

Texas. This entities the school not
only to enter II the contests Of the
league. but to receive free. some spe-
clal bulletins aud loan libraries on
debating and athletics.
This lntersoholastle organization Is
on o broader basis and embraces sew
oral features not found In other slm-
liar state organizations.
lts marked success Is due, In the
first place, to the founders genius
for organization Several other states

that Of Texas. hut In addition to the
machinery for the conduct Of such "a
huge project. the schools Of Texas
have responded In fine style These
two factors. a highly perfected organ
ization and the active Interest Of the
schools have brought about such
growth In membership that today
Texas II looked upon AZ the leader a
mong intorscholastic organizations.
Note the remarkable growth In mem
borship.
The first series Of county, district
and State contests was held In the
