en-headed football star is on the
wane. Today it's the all-around boy
or girl who makes the grade, not
only scholastically, but socially.
Which would you rather be? Dumb
and beautiful or handsome brute,
whichever the case may be, having
a gay whirl for short length of
time until your dull chatter takes
you down from the heights which
you achieved with your grand
stand plays? Or would you pre-
fer cultivating that little mind of
yours and being guaranteed date
whenever the occasion arises? Seems
to us the second choice would be by
far the happier and the longer
lasting one.

There are many ways to make

from being loud" on the street.

your lesson with confidence in your
sociology class. Do you run for the
nearest exit or sink way down in
your seat so the teacher can't pos
sibly spot you when it's time for
you to speak your piece? And, of
course, round-table discussions are
only for those poor fools who aspire
to be great orators and the intel
lectuals of the world.
Well, teensters, you are quite
right. Those poor fools are laying
the groundwork for becoming citi-
zens who will be able to voice their
opinions properly and convincingly

cause they have not the thought

own conclusions. Yep. we guess

your very helpful page. Our SUBJ

I wonder if you could give me some
information. Is there anywhere in
Washington or Arlington where
classes are given in baby care? In
my home city nursing organization
gives a course in fundamental care,
bathing, etc., which is very helpful
to an inexperienced new mother. I
am expecting a baby in May and
would like any help in this line that
is available.

BOILED APPLE DUMPLING?
(From Mrs. A. c. K, ArIington.)
While on a recent trip to the
coast, I was singing the praises of
the RICH, giving out the tip about
cleaning ovens with ammonia, and
my cousin asked if I would write in
for a recipe she had seen her
mother make many times, but had
not been able to find the true re-
cipe herself. It is for boiled apple
dumping. Within the past week I
saw where some one else had writ
ten in for this also; wonder if it
is the same one she wants? The
apples are cut up, and it is a large
pudding, boiled in a bag; when it
wss finished, the dough was deli
cious, and the apples all thoroughly
cooked inside. She said she could
remember the outside of the dunn
pling showing the creases after the
cloth had been removed.

Tigers Tangle With Naichez Tonight;

Trailed only by Jackson in Big

pie one of the conference lead
ers here tonight when they meet

UP ami with Spud Afford a

Natchez is undefeated this
year in six starts, but the quail
ty of the teams they have play
ed does not compare with the
powerhouses Moss Point has
taken on. The relatively weak
Biloxi and Brookhaven teams
have fallen to the Rebels by mar
row margins in their two con-
ference tits, and they have de-
feated Rolling Fork, Mcgee,
Yazoo, and Kosciusko in out
side games.
A line-busting fullback, 1855
pound Bernard Calendar packs
most OF the Rebel punch, ac-
cording to advance billing, and
the Tigers are set to stop him.

tain and center looked good last

McComb Game
The McComb tilt was marked
by the classy running of Tiger
Halfback Meyers, who looked
better than at any time during
the season and took some of the
load off Harry Davis.
The highly touted McComb
eleven, rated by sports writers
as a top-bracket team in the
south, looked less than sensa-
tional in the tilt, despite their
"a point margin of victory. Billy
Stewart and Johnny Leddy scor-
ed two touchdowns each, but
McComb was outgained on the
ground and the scores were as
much the result of Tiger FUN
bles and miscues as anything
else.
