Aggies Bear Down For Clash
With Horned Frogs Saturday

COLLEGE STATION, Oct. IA
Far from feeling overconfident be-
cause Of their % to 0 victory over
Iowa University the past Saturday,
Coach Madison Bells Texas AggieS
this week are busy preparing them
selves for their football game at
Fort Worth Saturday with the Tex
as Christian University Horned
Frogs, their first Southwest Con-
ference clash Of the season, In the
knowledge that 1t will take a team
continually fighting and on its toes
to win.
The chances Of the Aggies to de-
feat the Frogs are exceedingly slim,
Coach Bell is pointing out daily to
the players. I'VE can't feel too
gratified over the Iowa game" he
said. Iowa didn't have much be-
cause they were affected too much
by the heat. 1t will be different
with i. C. u, though, for they're
as accustomed to this climate as we
are.

can be expected to do much against

line and in the backfield. The Frog
forward wall is expected to aver
age about 20l pounds to the man
and the Aggies' line probably will
average about 1873 pounds, giving
the T. G. U. line an advantage of
approximately eighteen pounds to
the man. The Christian backfield
is expected to average better than
eleven pounds than the Cadet
offensive group, for the T. c. u.
backs average about 1870 pounds md
the Aggie backs about 100 pounds.
The Cadet line and backfield we're
outweighed in their games with

pen with which the measure was
made law.
President Hoover had the Bud
get Bureau give the bill it's 'once-
over" received a favorable report,
and then affixed his signature
as a part of his morning routine.
Those who share in the credit
for pursuing the bill through both
houses of Congress yesterday are
Secretary of Labor Doak, Luther
C. Steward and Miss Gertrude M.
McNally, of the Federation of
Federal Employees; N. P. Alias. Of
the machinists' organizations: Sen
ator Wesley Jones (RD of Wash
ington, and Representative Lelll-
bach (RD of New York, and La
Guardia (R.) of New York.
One Branch Omitted
Only one setback was encoun-
tered by the Federation of Fed
eral Employees in pushing the
measure through conference.
That was the omission of the
field service of the Interior De-
partment from it's provisions. A
concession on this point was
made by federation representa-
tives in order to expedite the
conference bill, with the House
amendments.
1t is understood that President
Hoover will be asked to include
certain classes of Interior Depart
ment field service workers into
| the bill by executive order, if this
action is practicable.
Almost 20 Full Days
The new law means that the
Government workers will get an
additional 80 additional Satur.
day half holidays in a year. For
several years past, during the
summer months, they have had
13 such holidays. The EN-.
plOyes now get the equivalent of
almost 20 days holiday, without
loss of pay, in addition to their
usual annual leave and sick leave.
The Federation of Federal EN-.
ployes has been working for the
legislation since 1917. It was not
until the past two years, however,
that it was pressed with strong
. support in Congress.
/ Between $4,000 and 10000
Federal employees throughout the
country and exclusive of the pos
tai service, are included in the
