think, we shall have an even better
remember. last fall Central had all
it could do to get away with us.
Business and Eastern will have
teams in the 135-pound series against
Central. Western and Tech. In this
series the aforementioned three should
have practically no advantage over
Business and Eastern, as the limita
lions placed on the average weight of
the elevens should even up every
thing pretty well. There are many
who think. the 135-pound series is go
ing to be completely overshadowed by
the triangular series between Tech,
Western and Central, but I think
lighter e1evens will develop competi-i
ton that will attract great attention"
The biggest problem now confront

must work at Western always with

coach finds himself more or less at
a disadvantage in his first season.

LARGE NUMBER Of
ARMY-NAVY RECRUITS


From reports received at the local
army recruiting station from the
main recruiting station at Oklahoma
City, the regular army is at this
time enjoying a recruiting boom that
has seldom II ever been equaled ex-
cept in days OF actual warfare From
1912 to 1915 the average number OF
men enlisted throughout the coun-
try for the army was seven hundred
a week, or two thousand eight hun
dred each month The number act
ually enlisted each week at the pres
ent time is about two thousand one
hundred, an increase of nearly two
hundred per cent over pre.war days.
These figures show that nearly as
many men are being enlisted each
week now as were in an entire month
previous OF 1917. These figures do
not include IN navy or marine corps.
During February and March Of this
wear the weekly average Of men
Joining the colors was two thousand
three hundred, this larger total be-
ing due somewhat to a recruiting
drive which took place during those
months. For every applicant ac'
cepted one other is rejected because
of scme physical disability. This
would indicate that in spite Of natural
after-war reaction, the number OF
men applying for enlistment in the
regular army alone throughout the
country is close to five thousand
each week, or twenty thousand
month. Prior TO the war the regular
a1mys enlisted strength seldom eX-
ceeded ninety thousand.
The state OF Oklahoma shows even
greater percentage or increase than
is the case in the country at large
For five years prior to the war the
average number OF recruits for the
entire state was only nine each week
From March, 1919 to date this number
mas grown to fifty week, or two
hundred a month. This is an increase
Of 433 percent for the state as against
1876 percent for the country as whole.
Practically each substation for army
recruiting in the state shows greater
number of men being enlisted each
week now than were enrolled in the
entire state during the period from
1912 TO 1916.
OF the men accepted for enlistment
at this time about onehalf are for one
year and one-half for three years.
Likewise the percentage is about
equally divided between former sery-
ice men and men who have not prev.
iously been in the regular army. The
chief cause for these great increases
lies in the vocational and educational
school systems which the army has
established Should the bill which Is
now pending in congress to increase
the rates OF pay almost double, and
that with the educational opportuni-
ties offered, the army may in some
future date see a waiting list of ap-
plicants. The big majority Of the re-
cruits now entering the new peace
time army are men who have had at
least grammar school education and
cannot afford to go on in professional
schools in civil life.
