The famed thin red line" of the Texas Aggies is not so thin judging from the lengths and breadths of B players who reported to Coach Homer Norton when practice began. I'otaling almost five tons the foot ball talent averages 181 pounds man in weight and feet Il inches in height.
 More than three of the five tons are wrapped up in "A linemen who total 6,540 pounds, averaging l93 pounds a man. The average height is feet
 Roy Young, all-southwest guard last season, takes the ribbon for weight, scaling 216 pounds. Young wears the largest shoe on the squad IA inches long and 71s inches wide. They are tailor-made and cost the Aggie Athletic Association $40 a pair. Young is not at all proud of this distinction. Opposing linesmen will do well not to bring the matter up.
 Roy is a senior, with two football letters already to his credit. He also earned varsity letters in track in 1885 and 1886, and held the intra- mural heavyweight boxing title in 1885.
 Of course, the star of the Aggies' line is Joe Routt, the schools first tuil -fledged all-America player. He is finishing his eligibility having been ineligible in 1884. For player who was unable to win his letter as a freshman, in 1883, he has done pretty well in climbing to the top of the stack of all-time e Aggie greats"
 Southwest conference critics be- gan beating the all-America drums for Routt early last fall Pacific Coast writers were greatly impress cd by his playing, summing 1t up with "Routt was riot at guard" Utah football scribes declared the coast writers were too conservative after having seen him in action against the University of Utah in Salt Lake City. A 60-minute player, the more he played the better Routt seemed to be.
 Routt laughingly describes him. self as ''the toughest man in Texas" That's taking in lot of territory. But opponents are none too keen to seek demonstration of his hard ness.

FAST DRIVERS TO
 HAVE DIFFICULTY ON THANE ROAD
Government Officials to Take Action Residents
 Say Condition Dangerous

In an effort to curb speeding through the Community of Thane, the Bureau of Public Roads is pre- pairing to erect warning signs on that part of the highway in the next few days and if warnings do not suffice, the Marshal's office has announced that it will take steps to make arrests under the Terri torial law which prohibits the driv- ing of motor vehicles more than 25 miles an hour.
 Complaints from the residents of the community, numbering about l8 families, declare drivers speed by their homes often at terrific pace, endangering chilren in the neigh borhood as we'll as other pedestrians. N M. Richardson, spokesman for the community, told officials that fast driving was becoming a prob lem, especially for those living close to the highway.
 Limiting the speed of vehicles on highways outside of incorporated towns, the Territorial law reads.
 "It shall be unlawful to drive any motor vehicle except truck upon any of the public highways within the Territory outside of in- corporated towns at higher rate of speed than at the rate of twenty five miles per hour, and it shall be unlawful to drive motor trucks upon any of such highways at higher rate of speed than at the rate of twenty miles per hour for trucks of one ton or less capacity and fifteen mics per hour for trucks over one ton capacity. It shall be unlawful to drive any kind of motor vehicle whatsoever around any curve or pass any other vehicle going in an opposite direction at higher rate of speed than twelve miles per hour; and at any point on the high way where the road cannot be dis tjnctly seen for a distance of at least one hundred yards ahead it shall be considered a curve within the meaning of this section, as, well as all other bends in such high ways"

Fairbanks Fox Runs Away with
 Hunter Knife
Fairbanks News Miner)

Nrdli DdllhS lNCWS multlJ
 And then children, there's the story about the little red fox that took the big, bad hunters long knife and scabbard and ran away with it.
 Sounds like a bedtime story, but it happened the other day right after breakfast.
 E. E. Giinther, Victor Pattinson Gene Fields and Nick Kinsella, a newcomer in these parts, went moose hunting on the Chatanika flats.
 Cute Little Scamp
 They failed to find any moose, so they started for home. Coming down Cleary summit they saw a little red fox by the side of the road.
 Cameras clicked, for the fox, not long removed from his mamma, seemed to be tame. But he knew the difference between a camera and a rifle.
 Likes Color
 Also, he had an eye for color bits of cigaret pack, coins, any thing bright seemed to delight him. Nick Kinsella didn't have much else to attract the fox, so he took off his handsome hunting knife, sheath and all, and tossed it to the little fellow.
 The pup snapped it up and de- camped in flash of red
 Hunting for him then was in vain, for the scamp had run safely away with his prize.
