AGGIES WALLOP l.. S. Z.
Dcnahue's Team Is Trounced Severely
BY Texas Farmers.

Baton Rouge, La, Oct. 90
Bibles Texas A. & NJ. Farmers sent
Mike Donahue's Louisiana State
Tigers to a crushing 2S-to-0 defeat
here at State Field Saturday.
1t was battle in which the few
flashy runs and passes were over
Swallowed by the hammering and
charging that the Aggie forwards did
to the Tiger line for sending across
the bulk of the yardage on the four
touchdowns scored.
In the second period, the Aggies
used their second-string lineup after
making their second touchdown. The
third period saw the first lineup
back in the game and two more touch
downs were showed across ere the
slaughter ended for the day.
Louisiana's Tigers again displayed
a good sample of their fighting quail
ties. After getting off TO a bad
start when their opening kickoff ieli
short and was returned to their 80
yard line, they held A. & NJ. twice
for downs within the first six min
utes. Aggie ability and charge was
not to be denied and the first score
came in the initial period. There,
after, until late in the third period
the game was nothing but a Tiger
slaughte".
The onesidedness of the game is
easily apparent from the statistical
chart. The Farmers made twelve
first downs in the first half, to one
for the Tigers in the same thirty
minutes of play. Bibles cohorts re-
sponded with ten first downs in the
second half, while the Donahue az.
gregation again melted one, the final
tslly being ~ first downs to two
The terrific power of the Aggies on
the offensive may be seen from the
fact that they gained 293 yards
through the line or around the ends;
while the Tigers netted only total
of ~ yards through the Aggie for
wards or around the terminals.
Fay Wilson. playing his first sea
son rs a regular on the Aggies was
the spectacular star of n group OF
brilliant performers including Gill
Knickerbocker and Pinson. This
burly halfback, with the speed OF O
century dash man, raced through the
Tiger line and down an open field
carving the ball almost constantly
in the first period, and netting the
first two touchdowns that the Aggie.
made. Nicely and Gill responded
nobly, but Wilson bore the brunt OF
the attack. with Bull Johnson and
Il. o. Wilson making the big open
ings for the telling gains.

Donoghue was trying to 60, Papyrus
up, but Zev was flashing along at a
speed that would not be denied.
The third furlOns was run in twelve
and fifth seconds, a speed which
Papyrus found it impossible to match.
and by the half-mile post went Zev
with open spaces between him and the
English horse.
BY this time all animOsities aroused
by the selection of the Rancocas colt.
all the jealousies, the misgirings. that
had threatened TO mar the first inter.
national match of this kind were for
gotten.
An American horse was out there
winning.
Used All His Skill.
Another furlong. Donoghue was
seen TO be making his drive. With all
his skill and he has ridden three con.
secutive English derby winners, the lit.
tie Irish jockey urged on his mount.
Papyrus was willing but he could
not match Zev's speed. At the half
way mark he had succeeded in getting
his nose up to Sande's saddl, girths,
but it was his final effort.
They were in the straight Of the
far side of the track. As Papyrus
drew up Sande sent Zev flying out
ahead. For minute it looked as though
the English horse was standing still
for it was in the next furlong. Just
before the mile post was reached, that
Zev opened a gap which Papyrus could
never close. Then they lit the turn
on the far side with Donoghue riding
for all he was worth in as vain a pur-
suit as ever race track witnessed.
At the mile and n quarter. as they
came around into the turn. Zev had
opened up lead of two lengths.
Walls Of Humanity.
On either side was a solid wall of
yelling humanity. On their left was
the center field crowd, the Roman mob
out for a holiday. On the right bank
ed in the towering stand, were the
aristocrats of turfdom.
But il was Zev who stretched his
long. dark legs triumphantly in the
final dash. Papyrus was running
smoothly but little laboriously. Zev
opened up more and more distance as
they Numbered down TO the Judges
stand. At the finish he was five full
lengths ahead. with something in hand.
while Papyrus could not gain an inch.
They came back to the judges stand
Earl Sande on Iev, greeted by a thun-
der OF cheering. Jarvis, trainer of
Papyrus, was the first to congratulate
the little American rider as Sande
slipped from the saddle.
Harry +. Sinclair was almost too
overcome for words. He Rugged his
jockey before the police closed in and
escorted Sande to the Jockeys pom.

MENNONITES, DISCOURAGED IN
MEXICO, RETURN TO CANADA

Parker, S. D., May 21.-During the
war a great many of the Mennonites
from the Wolf creek and Midtown
colonies, west of here, went to Cam
ada, settling. in Alberta, Saskatche-
wan and Manitoba. Early in 1922 in
company with many Canadian Men
%nonities they migrated to Mexico, and
created somewhat of a sensation as
they passed through the United
States enroute to Mexico from Canada.
Now. however, word has been re-
ceived here that they are going to
return to Canada, due to poor crops
in Mexico. When these people went
to Mexico they possessed plenty of
money, but did not take their money
to Mexico with them as they feared
the revolutionists. They left their
money in Eel Paso, Texas, and still do
their banking there. They are yet
financially well fixed, as they are re-
ported to have $4,000, 900 on deposit
in FL PasO, and will have plenty OF
money TO return to Canada without
calling on their kinsmen of the north
for help. But lack Of rainfall and
inability to produce crops there i'm
Mexico has led these people to con-
template a return to Canada.
In TerCek, n group of Mennonites
who have bought $4,000 acres of land
had only one and one-half inches of
rainfall during 1922. That was in

FAMOUS ATHLETE AND
WAR HERO TO SPEAK
AT LEGION CONVENTION

Colonel Joe Thompson, former State
Commander of the American Legion
of Pennsylvania, famous athlete from
Penn State, and holder of the Con-
gressional Medal of Honor, has been
secured by Commander Jay Williams
as one Of the principal speakers for
the South Dakota State Legion Con-
v~ention to be held at Madison, June
9Th, 7th and Sth.
Discussion with reference to the es-
adjustment of permanent headquar-
ters for the Legion in South Dakota
and plans fer assisting in the work of
the Wal Veterans Bureau for rehab-
~iliatation of disabled war veterans
will be the principal topics of discus
sion. Colonel Thompson through his
activities in connection with legion
work is particularly qualified to ad-
dress the convention in this respect.
AS a student at Penn State Colonel
Thompson became famous as n of
the best halfbacks in the east. He
was Walter Camps choice for half
back on his All-American football
team three years in successiOn--and
Camp still classes him as one of the
greatest %halfbacks the game has ever
produced.
As Colonel commanding the 10th
Infantry the record made by this regi-
ment' directed him as one of the great
figures of the World War. He was
awarded the Congressional Medal of
Honor, the highest honor conferred
by this Government for his heroism
in leading the Yanks into action at
Apremont, and the record of his work
during the four days fighting there is
one Of the outstanding feats of ihe
Argonne Battle
After the armistice he was in charge
of all athletics of the A. e. F.Ninclud-
ing the Olympic games held at the
Pershing Stadium near Paris. Not
only has he been a great athletic and
soldier but his work in the American
Legion has given him a National rep
utation. AS State Commander of the
American Legion in Pennsylvania last
year he increased the membership 49,
600 over the previous year in spite OF
the coal and railroad strikes which
caused so much financial embarrass-
ment in that state as a result the De-
partment of Pennsylvania had more
delegates at the National Convention
at New Orleans than any other state.
Colonel Thompson is an eloquent
and forceful speaker and men who
know him and his work are coming
from all parts of South Dakota to-
hear what he has to say. B
