throwing a scare into the entire
state last year. We would like TO
see Doug stay but heartily agree
with him when he said he cannot
afford TO turn down the promotion
which will be his at Robstown.
DOUG is a football mechanic.
He delights in building UP powerful
machines. In our opinion. he ranks
with the best high school coaches
in the entire south. TO build up
these powerful machines, 1t Is neces-
Sary that he have good material TO
work with. At Robstown this fall he
will have Just that. The Cotton Pick
ers had only a fair team last sea
son. but If you noticed, individual
performances stood out like a sore
thumb. When Doug starts TO work
this fall, he will have something
like is lettermen to work with. He
will have one Of the three best
squads in District No. 8. We would
not be at all surprised to see him
cop the bunting.

the second evening of music with the
Schubert Choral Club. The club was
under the direction of the guest con-
ductor, Mrs. Apolline Blair of Boston.
Guest soloists of the evening were Alma
KitcheI, contralto, of New York, and
Richard Lorleberg, cellist, of this city.
Rendering its selections under the
leadership and dynamic personality of
Mrs. Blair, the club seemed imbibed
with the spirit of the music and was
remarkable in its coordination both in
technical Interpretation and expression
Of feeling. The program was opened
with three selections, "Salutation"
(Gaines), Trees" (Rasbach- Harris)
and 1.-THE Night" (Schubert). OF these
the last was outstanding, both from
the standpoint Of beauty and presenta-
ton. This number had cello accom-
