HORNED FROGS
PLEASE HEADS
Strong Backs Reveal
ed In Win Over
Cowboys

FORT WORTH, Oct. 1o.-Coaches
Matty Bell and Ed Kubale we're we'll
pleased with the showing Of their
Texas Christian University Horned
Frogs in their game with the Sim
mons Cowboys last Saturday. The
Frogs displayed a superior brand Of
football to anything they have flash
ed this year TO down the strong con-
ference bidder from Abilene.
Especially were the Purple men,
tors pleased by the showing Of some
of their sophomore backs. Virgil
Roberts. who started ut full, was one
Of the outstanding performers of the
afternoon, slashing his way for long
gains through the Cowboy line and
playing bang-up defensive game.
Austin Griffith, who took over the
line-backing job later in the fray,
showed his usual fine form, smash
ing through the opposing line almost
at will and taking such ball carriers
that tricked through the forward
wall.
That the Frog first line was air
tight is indicated by the first-down
tabulation which gave the Abilene
crew only three successful attempts
at tcn-yard gains. Two of these
were due to passes. IL appears as
though Ed kubale has built his usual
defensive line. as only eight first
downs have been registered by op-
p%onents in three games. At least half
OF these were due to the air route.
Saturday the Frogs kept their
aerial offense largely under wraps,
and the Bellmen flashed a strong
off-tackle and heavy line offensive
that had a semblance of a real run
ming threat. Merlin Toler. vteran
half. gained many yards from scrim-
mage, and played his usual heads-up
game. Merlin intercepted one of the
Cowboys passes that resulted in n
touchdown for the Frogs.
So far no injuries have shown ur
and the Purple mentors are driving
their charges for the fray with the
Austin College to be played in Fort
Worth Saturday. The Kangaroos
have a team Of unknown strength but
the rogs have always found the little
college from Sherman a tough crew
with which to deal. That Matty Bell
will take no chances with the Sher-
NANTES was indicated by the heavy
and careful work engaged in by the
Frogs the first part of the week.

BABE RUTH

BABE RUTH
You can pitch il fast or slow,
You can throw it high or low,
You can toss il where they say the
Babe is lame.
You might aim right at his pants,
With your puzzlin,' ccrvin' s~lants,
But he'll knock the cover off it
just the same.
You can curve 'em low inside,
You can zip 'em high and wide,
You can drop EN- down the middle Of
the we'll.
You might get his bloomin' goat,
Just by amin at his throat,
But he'll lift it in the bleachers
s~ureazell.
You might get him in a hole,
II you've got the old control,
You may have him in there cussin' at
his luck.
AS you start one at his nose,
He'll start swingin' from his toes,
May you rest in peace if you forget
TO duck.

SPORT criticisms
By Bill RIFT

The moral Of those early world Sc
ries games was: Never pick on Grip
pies.
The Cards tried il and were run
down By a lot of wheel chairs.
The Yanks must have forgotten
their bats and began to beat up the
81. Louis people with their crutches.
The Athletics found out long ago
that the only way TO keep from be-
ing licked by the Ysnks is not to play
them.
The As looked like nine Jack
Dempseys in other towns, but they
were only spsrring partners in New
York.
Connie Mack finally came to the
conclusion that outside of Ruth,
Cehrig, Lazerri, Meusel, Koenig,
Hoyt. Pipgras. Combs, Dugan, PEN
mock. Bengough, Gszella, Heimaeh

Carl Hubbell, the Giants finger,
must be given listing rs one Of the
most promising Of the yearlings in
the majors the last season.
During the campaign of 1929 Carl
will have to show that the good work
he turned in for the New Yorks this
year was not one of those "flssh in

Wiley Moore, a big shot with the
Yanks, proved almost worthless this
year. He pitched his arm out to aid
in the winning of the 1927 pennant.

Against the Capitalists

perialism which grows more and more aggres-
sive and grasping each month.
And now it is to be Africa!
And this time it is not oil, but rubber!
What was Hoover doing when, some two
years ago, he, as secretary of commerce, made
drastic attacks on the British rubber mon
opoly? Was he already interested in the Fire
stone corporation and the Liberian venture in
hundreds of millions?
But these are not passing events, to be cured
by some reform. This is not something "ab-
normal" or excessive" as the simpering liberals
would have us believe In the present period
it is normal it is the inevitable course of CAPT.
talism in the period of Imperialism.
Nor is it something peculiar to Hoover and
the spectacular bunch of yeggs that started
with Jess Smith, Jake Hamon, Albert B. Fall,
Warren G. Harding, Harry Sinclair some eight
years ago, and which is continued in the gang
of Coolidge, Mellon and Hoover today. 1t is not
peculiar to Hoover, nor to the republican party.
And as for Al Smith and the democratic
party, with Bill Kenny, John Raskob Woodin-
and the Tammany gang-they are likewise
aiming at the same goal. Any party that sup
ports capitalist democracy including any
socialist" party, as proven by the Barmat af-
falr IN Germany-supports this imperialism
which is the growing body of capitalist "democ-
racy'' today.
More than once in these columns we have
called attention to the fact that the Firestone
venture in Liberia has vast political signifi-
canoe Africa is the great continent heretofore
divided for enslavement between England,
France, Belgium and other European nations
the United States having been out of it.
But the heyday of American imperialism
dawns, and the United States, in ever-sharpen-
ing competition with Great Britain, will fight
for redivision of colonial possessions
Imperialism means slavery, and it means
inevitable war.
Let this example of the vile conspirator
Hoover be potent lesson to the working class
of the whole world and the enslaved colonial
and semi-colonial slaves of imperialism. Free
dom from imperialist slavery and war can
come only by destroying imperialism, DESTROY
ing capitalism.
The Bolshevik way is the only way out.

Hoover Steals a Nation

Herbert Hoover did nothing out of keeping
with his regular role when as secretary of COM
lnerce, he used the dirtiest methods known to
the art of imperialist robbery to force whole
nation into slavery to the Morgan-controlled
National City Bank and Harvey Firestone.
Hoover used the power of the United States
government to reduce the Republic of Liberia
to slavery.
A whole nation on the coast of Africa passed
into the direct control of Hoovers banking
friends and his hackers, the multi-nillionare
rubber manufacturer, Harvey Firestone. Forced
labor of practically the mass of the population
of Liberia at fixed wage of Is cents per day
per man was arranged for Harvey Firestone
by the United States government. A forced
loan which clinches the control of the Lberian
Republic until the year 1867 was put through
for the National City Bank by Hoover and the
state department.
Then the National City Bank, that is, Nor
gan, Harvey Firestone, and other capitalist pa
triots brought about the nomination of Hoover
for president. Coolidge, Firestone and Hoover
have long been intimates.) Prior to this deal in
politics it was arranged that the coming presi-
dent of the United States would appoint vir-
tual dictator over Liberia to enforce the "agree-
ment." Behind the dictator, to be appointed by
Hoover if Hoover is elected, will be Hoover him
self, interested in the gigantic deal, and the
whole naval power of the United States
The reeking corruption of Teapot Dome is
outdone. Teapot Dome graft involves, after
all, only some oil wells; this gigantic rubber
graft and international thuggery involves the
footing of whole people.
This is international crime on a scale which
gives US a foretaste of what we are to expect
of the capitalist imperialism of the United
states in the near future. Today Nicaragua is
being bombed. Mexico is raped, bloody coun-
ter-revolution launched against it's people and
the head of its government murdered as the
direct or indirect product of the effort of the
United States to force Mexico under the control
of United States oil capitalists and bankers.
