OF THE seven conference mem
" bers, five look good enough to
win first honors. T.C.U., Texas
A. &M., Southern Methodist and
Arkansas all will give Rice a
tough afternoon when they meet.
When We chose T.C.U. in
1888 we believed that Rice had
the possibilities for an out
standing first team, but that
the schedule and reserves were
against them. Their 1888
schedule was top heavy and
without a breathing spell.
When the season was over We
checked the schedule valua-
tons of all major football
schools in the country and
found that Rice played the
second toughest schedule in
the nation. Yale was first.
This year Rice is better equip
ped in reserve strength. They are
stronger than last year. The IN
