Association
Adopts New
Athletic Rules
U. of MINI. HIGH SCHOOL NOW
IN ASSOCIATION; PROFESS
SIGNALS STRICTLY BARRED;
COLEMAN SUPPORTED.

At the annual meeting of the Min
nesota State High School Athletic as
! ISOLATION, held last spring, severa
important changes were made by the
adoption Of amendments to the asso
cations constitution, covering all o.
the various high schools athletics.
U. of M. HIGH ADMITTED.
Membership in the association was
extended to include the University Of
Minnesota high school, having here.
tofore been restricted and limited to
Minnesota state high schools. Another
new provision adopted is that at least
one member of the board of control
of the association shall be present at
all state championship contests.
FOUR CHANGES MADE.
Four changes in the constitution
affect participants in high school
athletics. Hereafter, such students
must have been enrolled in the high
school not less than two weeks before
the contest, or from the beginning of
the semester. They shall be doing pas
sing work in at least four subjects
for which they are enrolled, and if
grade students, they shall be doing
passing work in the regular course.
By passing work is meant work of
such nature that credit for the
semester would be entered on the
school records were the credit given
one week before the contest.
NEED NOT SIGN CARDS.
The signing Of official information
cards by the participants in any inter-
scholastic contest in any branch Of
athletics, declaring themselves fam
liar with the rules of the associa-
ton, ETC., before taking part therein,
which has heretofore been required,
is eliminated. While this provision
has been stricken from the constitu-
tion entirely, this action does not
change the rule governing eligibility
for such contests, but simply elimin-
ates the signing of any information
cards.
PROFESSIONALISM BARRED.
A new paragraph has been added to
Article 8, Section 3, which provides
that high school students participant
ing in athletics shall not use their
athletic skill for gain at any time dur
ing the school year. The purpose Of
this new provision is the prevention
Of any form Of professionalism by
high school students during any part
Of the school year.

Do Your Christmas Shopping
SOUTH FLORES STREET

4 "Shop in Comfort" might well
be chosen for the slogan of South
Flores street. Recent street i'm
provements have made South
Flores, one of the widest and
prettiest thoroughfares in the en-
tire business district. Always
popular with the retail trade, its
patronage has been vastly in
creased by the attractions it now
offers.
The stores and shops that line
South Flores street are clean and
well ventilated with ample light
ing facilities and alert, efficient
employees. The widening of the
street provided ample parking
space. No street in the retail dis
trict possesses the parking facili-
ties of South Flores street and no
street in San Antonio is as free
from traffic accidents and traffic
congestion, as is South Flores
street.
This is a most important con-
sideration to the woman shopper
who drives her own motor car.
She can enter South Flores street
with assurance that she will not
be caught in traffic jams and
that she can park her car without
fear or worry, immediately adj
jacent to any store or shop on
the street for as long a period
as she desires.
If her purchases are numerous,
courteous employees in most of the
stores and shops there, will carry
them to the car for her, a great
assistance especially to a shop
per who also has the care of small
children.
The store keepers and proprie-
tors of South Flores street shops
emphasize friendly cooperation in
their dealings with the retail
trade. They endeavor to create
that kind of an atmosphere in
their institutions and to cater
particularly to the women buyers
who purchase a large proportion
Of the merchandise used in the
average family.
Being away from the high
rent district, too, the South Flores
street stores are able to offer rea-
sonable prices on all standard
merchandise thereby making shop
ping on South Flores street not
only pleasure but an actual
saving to the buyer.
South Flores street is today.
one of the most rapidly growing
retail sections Of the city.

Facts Not Theories
The Hardest Competition in the World to Beat Is a
Free, Full and Frank Display of the Facts
By ELWOOD LLOYD

boost for us if they don't know the
facts concerning u.s."
"You will find our bankers men OF
inherent fairness" i said, who are
DESTROYS of nothing more than the
success and prosperity of our com
munity. They realize and thoroughly
appreciate the necessity for industrial
development of the right sort by men
of the right kind. They are glad to
further the interests of such organiza-
tons. But, being men skilled by long
training id the analysis of investment
offerings. they cannot be expected to
laud those organizations which have
not taken the trouble to acquaint
them with the worth of the projects.
Ny suggestion would be for you to
conduct a little campaign of education
among these men. Tell them the ac-
tual facts in the case-what you are
doing or expect to do, the histories
and records of the men who will man.
age your company, your plans for
manufacture and distribution. the base
upon which your financing is built
give them sufficient information for
the formin. of an opinion and you VIII
have no complaint to offer as concern
ing their advice to prospective clients.
This is true. Commercial and IN
vestment bankers of integrity do not,
knowingly. beat down or belittle the
security offerings of organizations
which will add to the prosperity OF the
communities in which they operate, If
the new organizations are operating
upon a base likely to assure rea-
sonable degree of safety for the in
weston.
OF a certainty there is much COM
petition for the investors monay.
This competition should work to the
advantage and safety of the person
with surplus funds. The hardest COM
petition in the world to beat is a
free. full and frank display of the
facts-not theories-concerning the
company offering stock for sale.
The investor should seek all the
information possible to secure be-
fore placing his funds in any cor
poration. The corporation not sup
plying this information has only
itself to blame if the investor does
not take kindly TO its offerings.

BEAUTY GARDEN
TO BLOOM IN
SOUTH TEXAS
Vast Expanse Of Fertile
Land Will Be Put
Under Cultivation

A 10.00O-acre garden will bloom in
South Texas next spring, the first OF
the many green patches which will
dot that section in the next few years
The vast expanse of rich black land
is to be opened and put under in
tensive cultivation. and crops on this
tract will be ready for harvest in the
fall of 1926.
Heretofore, it has been unimproved,
lying idle; now it will start produc-
ing money-making crops and become
an asset to all of the Southwest.
Two years ago the Refugio Black
Land and Development Company
bought the tract from Cyrus B. Lucas
a short distance from Austwell, Re-
fugio county.
Thirty-five miles of 4J-foot graded
road was built. five miles of drainage
bitches, 60 miles of lateral bitches,
bridges and all necessary improve
ments were constructed. Now the land
has been bought up, mostly by Texas
farmers, and they will 20 into the
fields next spring and make this land
producing.
This project is but one of the many
now under way in South Texas and
the company has had great deal Of
success in putting this development
plan over.
Those interested in the improve
ment are Harry H. Rogers, NJ. W.
Terrell. Claud McCauley, Kenneth
Winner, ]. w. Warren. Holman Cart
wright. Graham Dowdell. X. l.. Tay-
lor, Thomas NJ. Plummer, Robert
Droscoll, Jack Locke and Louis Lips
comb.
The land is as fertile as any in the
country and most any crop can be
raised on it. The success OF this pro-
ject is expected 10 speed the develop
ment of South Texas for the boom
that. all real estate and business mel
predict.
