About SMU spectators saw the University of Texas and Oklahoma University meet upon the andiron last Saturday in one of the fiercest and most spectacular exhibitions of football ever witnessed in Austin. The outcome was a ti.*, ti to o.

hind interference, which was at times alme t perfect Watson circled Oklahoma's et(,is three times for gains of forty, twenty five and fifteen yards Searcy put forty yards behind him around right end. For Oklahoma, Bogo! st. pped out for gains of twen- tv-tive and twenty yards, and Mc- oreary managed to steer himself d ear of ’Vars ity ’s tacklers for twenty yards also.
Fumbles were frequent on both sides. ’V ars ity ’s fumbles, however, occurred at more critical points than those of Oklahoma— one resulting in a failure to score a touch-down, and another making Oklahoma’s touchdown possible. Texas, particularly, was hoodooed by a fatal inability to hold on to the pigskin, not a single one of the Oklahoma kickoffs being squarely caught for the return. The fumble which resulted in giving Oklahoma the ball on Texas’ four-yard line was little worse than the handling of several other punts, except that Blocker ought to have allowed the oval to bounce over the line instead of trying to catch it.
The individual work of some of the players deserves spec jai mention. Captain Watson was the bright particular star of the day. His playing Saturday is pronounced by many to have been as good as any witnessed on the athletic field in several years. He was in the heart of every play, and the way he advanced the hall was simply brilliant Searcy ca ner- aled the team with excellent judgment and made one of the pr< fliest runs of the game. Hartison played in his old reliable way. Mar hall again had the misfortune to be up against Hie hardest proposition on the

The* annual convention of the Texas Intercollegiate Athletic Associationwas hold at the Oriental Hotel in Dallas on the night of Oct, s AU the colleges belonging to tin* association. except Austin College of Slier man. were represented. After routine business was transacted, a num lier cf important amendments were a lop!* d. fhe principal one being the enlargement of the executive committee from five members to one representative from each et liege,
Golf was added to the list of even th, and the executive committee was authorized to arrange for an interpol legiate toil! nament.
The one-year residence rule was modified so as to allow a man who has represented some other Institution in an intercollegiate contest to represent an institution in the Texas Intercollegiate Athletic Association, provided he has not represented any institution in an intercollegiate meet for one year previous.
Section I of "Student Qualification" was modified so as to bar allmen who do not enter within thefirst thirty days of the* fall term from competing on teams for that year. This rule knocks out . ...iHmll, track and tennis men who have heretofore been allowed to enter at Christmas,This is a distinct stop forward inpurifying the spring spurts, especially baseball.
The standing broad jump and the standing high jump were out out or the annual track meet, and the tw o mile run and the mile relay race were added. These were fin* principal changes made, others being only as to minor details
The chairman of each delegation was a member of tin* Faculty All questions before the meeting were treated iii ti broad-minded, far-seeing manner, tin* members realizing that they were laying tin* basis for the government of athletics In the future and that that basis must be well laid if athletics arc to be kept on a high plane.
F. Homer Curtiss, who organized the association in the beginning and who has been its president ever since was re-elected president for the fourth time by acclamation.
Prof. Hamilton of Baylor Un iversity was elected vice president and Prof. J C. Hardy of Southwestern University secretary-treasurer.
W h ile the discussions were pointed and animated the utmost harmony prevailed. A ll the colleges represented were brought into closer touch with one another by understanding each other’s position and motives.

T in in'; I U n ive rs ity of Texas M ag azine for the year has made U h appearance, ami right app ropriate ly , too, does it . cover embody the sp ir it of the season: the spirit of tho typ ic al college gam e—-football. Hut later in the year. when football has g iven p lace to more in te llectua l diversions, when ter the library we have fo rsak en the bleachers, ami xvhen lr-nu a detailed account of the last football gaum as recorded in the Texan, we pick up the publication xxhlch Stands d istin ctly for the lit * rum ab ility and sp irit of the U n ive rs ity , would not a cover of less a th le tic ami more l i t e ra ry pret< nsions be more in keeping w ith th<> kind of m atter usually found in ‘ in- lite ra ry m onth ly? Doubtless the business m anagem ent w ill p ro vide for this. Vial vv Hat is in ide the cox cr, m oreover, is of g reater im portance than the cover itself.
There is first a poem. ‘•'Tin* Night- vx)ml,*’ by I. onard Doughty, a name far from u n fam ilia r to readers of the Magazine in the p a s t Indeed, no one bas done im ie in recent ye irs tow ard enrich ing the Magazim w ith good poe try than leis Mr. Doughty. “ 'The Night W ind ’ is a po* in a f 'a i the writ e r a cburueterfsd.le style. \ tone of des date wailing, of deep pessim ism p. made < w ry tine of it. possesses ii so com pletely, in fact, that the reader ai its conclusion ran not butt ee) I lie Sped Of It.
\ jus! amt adequate appreciation. im bed of W< ran wert b’s predominant po. tie mood is “ W ordw orth as a L y r ic boce ’ As a piece of com position it exhibits <ar*uut planning and execution. I mice.* I, the a, * mini- u : structure is in p laces l ig h t ly too e v i dent, ami espe daily is th is true o! the conclusion whose stereolypod lot rn exhib its bad a it And the num ber of tx pograpltu a1, errors found in tins essay Is positive ly inexcusable. a casual reading rex ••ating eight such, e rot a. T ills Is, of co th , no fund of tie* w rite r; it revea ls a lack of < are ( n the pat t of i Ire proof i ider, It is to be imped that the Magazine xviii lie fre d of sm ii e rro rs in brie Is l nos that follow.
The w rite r of "B u n - should not have xvii bile ft h is name T h e story is a very cred itab le one, and the I ’c i ve! sit > pub ie n a ta n t ly want a to know who w rote it ; ami besides, w ith holding names is a bad habit for tile Magazine to fait int.* T h e ch ie f charm of the story consists in the sim plic ity of its them** and setting. W ith a l, it. is a story possessing m any elem ents of strength, s im p ly and un* im passioiied ly told, Its strength would have been im rea-ed, how ever, by the e lim inate ti of a few stock expressions such as “ s lig h tly undu la ting grotto I." “ the dark shadows g rad ually spread ai r< ss the p ra ir ie ” and “ the vv.-st was ahunt.- w ith glorious tints of crim-ort and gold ” B s good qualities far outweigh its defects. however, and stories of its value w ill a lw ays find a welcom e.
The short conversational essay “ Un Rusting ’* is notew orthy for tw o tilings; F irs t, it ca lls to mind what excellent students we all were before coming to the U n ive rs ity , when it was considered a d isgrace to fa ll below ninety-seven or ninety-eight; secondly, ii is an excellent representation of the psychological process attend ant on d am m in g Hue is not especially impressed w ith the trueness to experience of Mio observations educed in the first three paragraphs.
About all that can ne said of “ a B ack Action M etam orphosis” is that is the ch-ver. st piece of composition the Mat azine ha caught in several years 'The w rite r has a sty le dis tim th ins own, a style w hile not ole ga ut in any sense of tin* word, is supe rla tive ly sung* th e and p ic tu resque. W ho but Steger, for in stance. would have ti night of M aiz ie ’s “ m om tner" as “ a human parenthesis when if conies to shape'"? W h ile a great m any of the expressions used verge near onto slang, yet they are not slang, and are. I think, leg it! mate in th is form ot discourse.
“ M arion C raw fo rd 's age-.aba'" is th* work of one possessing more than ordinary c r it ica l ab ility , The style is clear, strong, elegat t The organ ization Is po r f e< t as regards conventional standards, and w itha l, we could ask for nothing that Cho r* va wa r has not gixa si cs w ith in tho scope *f the two pages which the c ritic ism occu pies.
That any one w ith the a b ility tow rite as good a story as “ T h e G o v e rn o r H and ” should have stooped to adopt so cheap a nom-d* plum e as did i he w rite r of th is story is ineon- te ivab ie W h y he did not sign his own name is hard to understand, but w liy he chose to w rite under an assumed name el such prep-school ap pearance is beyond com prehension. if the- U n ive rs ity of Texas M agazine desires to uphold its d ign ity and position in a class above hi.git school publications, it must re lig iously es- chew ail such assumed names as the one referred to As regards the story, 11 deserves a ll praise. It has a good plot, is well told and is. iii fact, above the average Ma zag inc story.
W h ile thoro in a notab le sca rc ity of poetry in tin* October M agazine, the qu a lity is a ll that could be expo ted from U n iv e rs ity ta lent. In deed., any one of the three poems in tie* Magazim* this month might w ell grace tin* pages of far more pretentious Journal . ‘‘A lice ” by C lyde W a l len H ill, i ti ly r ic of exceptional beauty. The ■ ..cd line of the first stanza m ay not lie as new nor as Im ag inative as we could w ish, but if is more than counter-balanced by the beauty an-! imagery of the other stanzas. ” 'Vers ify V iew s,” a prose* s k c < h by the same w rite ! is hardly so xv* Ii (lone.
