THE COTTON BOWL 18th an
nual contest was perhaps the
most promising sports start Of
the NEW EAR. Certainly 1t over
Swallowed all the other publ
cized bowl games in democratic
significance. Unquestionably it
was one OF the most AIL-AMER-
IcAN contests ever played in the
south.

SOUTHERN METHODIST Uni
versity, coached by famous Mat
ty Bell, made history at Dallas,
Texas, last week. Two sepia
stars glittered in the Cotton
Bowl as $4,000 wildly cheering
fans, most of them southerners,
watched SNdU and Penn State
battle to a thrilling 1913 tie in a
fine clean game with no rough
ing or clipping penalties,

WALLY TRIPLETT, the coll
ored Penn State star not only
played right up to four minutes
OF the final gun but he was not
(a) lynched, (b) singled out for
slaughter or (c) tarred and
feathered by the Khan. Triplett
did the long brilliant booting for
the northerners, he grabbed a
pass to score, and tie the game.
He passed and carried the ball.

THE TEXAS GAME ended
with the fans standing in ire
mendous thrilled fascination as
Penn States colored end. Dinny
Hogget raced across the SMU
goal-line and just missed catch
ing the pass that would have
won the classic for the north
erners. Thus the two Penn sepia
stars actually featured the i94s
Cotton Bowl game.

O'Banyoun's
observations


Yes, I, too, am curious to know
the entire personnel of the com
mittee which selected the Choir
Of Peoples Baptist Church as the
outstanding one in this commu-
nifty. There is something so au-
thoritative about a signature and
there are some names waich
carry so much conviction. Not
that I have the least doubt of
the authority and sincerity Of the
donor, / still would like to know
the names of those who helped
him make the selection. AS l
said in an article, last week, one
who has nothing to hide and is
willing and able to show a reason
for a statement, should never
hesitate to affix his signature to
said statements.

Mr.. Olsen, you must remember
this: Your COW had no business be-

are our private property and when
she invaded them, she became a
trespasser. Technically speaking,
you, as her owner, became tres

Although the recent special SEES

voted pay raises for state employees
totaling 100000 per year. to many
workers the increase amounts tc
only 20 dollars annually, or 1914
cents week. A booklet giving the

apparent that Stains heart condition was not
merely the result of overwork, but that he
was seriously i'll. There were rumors in
Moscow at the time that Stain suffered q
slight stroke on his return home. The
truth of this is, of course, difficult to
ascertain. At any rate, it was at that time,
i.e., the beginning of 1914, that consulta-
ton of heart specialists was called and deter
mined, after careful examination, that Stain
was the victim of severe cardiac asthma.
This disease has no relation to ordinary
asthma, which it resembles. 1t is heart con-
