Senator Cummins says 1t wasn't the
grease, dirt and long hours the railroad
job brought which made legal pastures

on TO Washington, succeeding the idlc

The college band and the student body en masse will be at the station to celebrate the great playing done at Philadelphia Headrick's men already have bagged three games, two from the Ouachita Tigers, which the Hendrix clan thinks cause enough for rejoicing This time the Bulldogs did not fail to twist the Tigers tail"
 Coach Dan Estes and the State Normal team also received a noisy welcome when they returned last night from Little Rock, where the Teachers annexed two from Little Rock College. The team will be idle until next week, when Henderson Brown appears at Hendrix and then the Normal.
 Conway fans will see the two home teams in action four days next week Henderson, Brown will meet the Bull dogs on Russell field Monday and Tuesday and will then move over to the Normal for their final of their four games for the year. Yesterdays stiff battle with the Bulldogs proves the worth of the Reddies, and four fast settees may result from their stay in Conway.
