Wasted Years
~ LILY wANDRL

u I'
Bretna Sterrett sat In the crowded
depot waiting for the train that was to
take her back to the home she had left
reluctantly and heavy-hearted nearly
twenty years ago. She dreaded the
return, 1t was not. home to her; home
was what she was now leaving--for-
ever. She hated to go back and see
what might have been, the happiness
she could have claimed If she had
stayed. If she had not listened to
what she had thought was the call of
duty. Twenty years of wasted effort,
yet she had told herself she was hap
py; out now she knew differently. her
eyes were opeaed. She had given up
the best years of her life and now, no
longer needed. unwanted, she must
go back and pick up the, remnants of
the old forgotten life.
Sitting there in the bustling waiting
room, she remembered her girlish at
tachment for Clifford Holmes, now
magnifled by lonesomeness and spin
sterhoOd to great love. No actual
engagement had existed-merely an
understanding, the unbinding country
keeping company" And Bretna had
always feared the dancing-eyed Nancy
Dove like premonition of what would
be realized. Then came the crisis In
her life. In a distant town her sister
died.. A letter followed from the de-
spairing husband. William, the father
Of five small children.
After night Of agony of indeclsion,
torn between duty and the thought Of
losing Clifford. Bretna wrote that she
would come for few months. She
had hoped that her sweetheart would
speak before she left, but his words
were vague, unsatisfying. In few
weeks came letters from home linking
the names Of Clifford and Nancy. The

Dallas, Texas, Oct. 16.--Texas Uni- versity outplayed the Oklahoma Ag- gies at the state fair grounds field here today and carried off 21 to win. The Oklahomans were unable to get within scoring distance of the goal at any time of the game.
 Forward passing helped Texas score each of the three touchdowns A pass from Watson to Mccullough put the Texans on the 25 yard line and straight line bucking put the ball over the line in 12 minutes of play, despite 25 yard penalty. The second touchdown came in the fourth quarter, the period starting with the ball within three yards of Oklaho- mas goal. Two line bucks put it over. Seven minutes later, with the ball on the Oklahoma 45 yard line Elam ran through the entire Okla. homa team for the third touchdown Seven men failed to stop Elam.

 The Haweyes made only one first down on straight football, but at tached six on forward passes. lii nois ripped the Iowa line at will and Hellstrom circled the ends repeat .edly.

Dermott scored IsWa thin five minutes after receiving the opening kick, advancing the ball to within striking distance of the goal by three forward passes and did not seriously threaten the visi- tors goal again, except in the second quarter when they advanced the ball to the Pine Bluff five yard line and were held for downs.
 Lose On Pass
 Pine Bluff lost it's best opportuni- iy to score after nine yard forward pass had placed the ball on Dermott's $ l yard line. On the second down Riner, Pine Bluff quarterback, called for a forward pass which was inter cepted and brought out from behind the goal line by Dermott player.
 Lindsey, fullback, and Pogue, half back, played brilliantly for the visi- tors, each tearing off thirty-five yard run. Hamilton, Pine Bluffs center, was forced out of the game in the third quarter, but was able to re-enter the game in the fourth Z Pine Bluff made more first downs than Dermott, but lacked the neces- sary punch to score, exsept in the one instance of where poor judgment lost the ball within one yeard of the To- calls goal. The Pine Bluff line was strong defensively, but lacked drive extensively.
 The game was hard contested one by both sides, and was not finished until dark.
