Easy Victory

DALLAS, Oct. 24-tP- Southern
Methodist University's celebrated
aerial circus swooped down on the
Centenary College Gentlemen here
today dropping three touchdown
bombs for a 10 to 0 victory. The air
squad was In command OF Weldon
Mason and Badly" Oliver who
scored the Mustangs three touch
downs, and otherwise made the
Gentlemen spend an uncomfortable
afternoon.
The victory allowed Southern
Methodist to retain her 1881 un-
defeated record which has reached
five straight. Famed for passes,
Southern Methodist scored all three
touchdowns on straight football.
Centenary offered little extensively,
except for several substantial gains
by Murff.
Mason was easily the outstanding
star. His consistency in returning
punts and slashes off-tackle and
around ends was invaluable to the
Mustangs. The game, a non-con-
ference affair, marked the first
meeting between these two teams
since 1927 when Centenary won.
