Scribe Lauds Texas Christian as
Nations Greatest Football Team,
Forward Wall is Smart, Tough, Quick

HOUSTON, Tex, Nov. 18. (UP)
The Lone Star states greatest
football team has no lone star, de-
spite the tens of thousands of words
written the super-human qualities
OF Little Davey O'Brien. He's a
heller, this OBrien, with his arm
that is as accurate as Robin Hoods
bow. But he isn't the Texas Chris
ttan team all by himself. Working
with him, and for him, is a line as
tough as cactus plant; a line that
throws it's tremendous weight
around with amazing speed and
saVVy. In the middle of it, big,
mean, rough and knowing, is KY
Aldrich, a center so good that Texas
critics say that any All-America
team without his name in it should
be published only in a standard
and accepted Joke book.
You only have to follow Jim Far
ley's advice, and take a look at the
records. to see what this line has
meant to OBrien and his passing.
Last year, when TCU's forward wall
was mediocre, O'Brien was a fair
to middlin' paSser, and that's all.
This year-Well, Texans are swear
ing he is better than Sammy Baugh
ever was A few years ago if anyone
had publicly declared that Baughs
passing featS would soon be sur
passed he would have been taken to
little ropin' party at the nearest
cottonwood tree.
With TCU's powerhouse line in.
front Of him, affording him the
same sort of protection that the
Ma3lnot line gives France, OBrien
has been terrific, in the truest Hol-
lyWood sense. In eight games Davey
has unloosed 139 passes, only four
OF which have been intercepted
and 70 of which have been COM
pIeted for a total gain of 1874 yards.
Fifteen Of the passes went for
touchdoWns and figured in the scor-
ing of 173 of the 2O5 points TCU
has made this year. AS a senior.
Baugh threw 2O3 passes, completed
lO4, had 20 intercepted, for a gain
of 1876 yards.

"DING" ON WILD LIFE

Conservation of wild life is a subject about which more has been said and less done than anything in the world except the weather, declares J. N Ding Darling, cartoonist and former chief of the United States Biological Survey in the current Rotarian Magazine. With Americas wild-life population on the downhill skids, he says much must be done to conserve for coming generations resources intended to be the heritage of all.
 We may initiate currency, but it won't put back soils on eroded farms bring back our forests he asserts. We may accumulate all the gold in the world in our Treasury, but it won't put water back artificial deserts nor restore our food crops fish, fowl, and gifts of Nature"
 Americans have poured down the rathole much of that which Nature gave them writes Conservation St Darling, for rivers once teeming with fish are sewers; millions of of the richest soil have become ugly, erodng scars; and forests of priceless value have been hacked down and burned away
 We have lots of conservationists but little con- servation and our resources continue to disappear

WELL DONE, MIR. ROOSEVELT

Tribute is being universally paid President Roose- welt for the part he played in avertng war in Europe during the recent emergency The messages the Presi- dent directed to Adolf Hitler and to the other leaders abroad doubtless were potent influence in bringing about solution without open conflict. Typical Of be favorable reaction to Mir Roosevels efforts is the ,llcuina by James A. Wood in The Seattle Times:
 When history yet to be written deals with he world crisis which has just been averted, we believe t Will be said of Neville Chamber lain that he was the ablest and least selfish British statesman of his day.
 And when that history is written--no mat ter who may write it--it will be recorded that the turn of events followed swiftly upon the messages of Franklin D. Roosevelt to the men who had it within their power to solve the crisis.
 Always felcitous in choice of words, Presi- dent Roosevelt attained new heights, both for himself and the political literature of the world in the writing of those messages, es- pecally the message of last Wednesday, di- rectly addressed to Chancellor Hitler.
 This was masterly yet in no sense a dic- tatorial presentation of the of peace; dgnified and firm, yet altogether kindly; perfectly accurate reflection of the opinions and the prayers of the American people, set forth in simple language the meaning of which could not possibly be msconstrued; in every respect great state paper.
 The effectiveness of MT Roosevets we'll timed effort is apparent in the happy result. It is doubtful that any other present-day leader in world affairs could have done this. His people and those of Europe involved by mmedated threat of war in truth the people of all the world deeply grateful to him
