T. C. U. Vs. Baylor—From the Side Lines By TED KOHINSON, Ad Man at Washer Bras.

I use the heading "A Great Victory" for several reasons. First—everyone connected with the school should In' proud of the fad that T. C. U. scored two touchdowns against our old rivals. This feat alone is the first time that Baylor's goal line has beet) crossed by a Texas school in two years, and Messrs. Fouts and others had their hearts set on making the two years complete without a touchdown against them. We should be proud of our boys for accomplishing this and for holding them to as close a score as they did. Second—We had the largest crowd that ever attended a football game in the history of Fort Worth. They were out on the 1, C. L. ( ampus and could see what a wonderful institution we have, and we all know that the school will be greatly benefited bj the advertising it derived by the number of visitors present...... , ,_ ,. , , i i ^ i Not one student should say a word against the coaches or the team lor losing this game, butL should look back at the glorious victories we have achieved this season and the good work done by every member of the team, and our loyal coaches. Look how long Yale worked and struggled to get a team to beat Harvard, and after years of bitter defeat at the hands of their rivals, they accomplished what they had started out to do. Let us do the same as Yale and commence at once to build our team for next year with one aim in view—to beat Baylor. With the mat .rial that Coach Daniel has on hand now, his knowledge of the game and ability to handle the players, we know that he can give T. ('. U. a team next year that will crumple all opponents and come through with a glorious record. Coach Daniel has given us a better team this year than we have had for several years and this fact should be pointed to with pride by the en- tire institution. Therefore, this defeat at the hands of Baylor should only be a stimulant for T. C. U. and encourage their players to look forward to next year's victories. , , . , The thing most important to us all now is to keep "Dear Old Dan" for our coach next season and the faculty,u as well as every member of the student body should insist that he stay with us, giving us another winning team next year. I for one, as well as many more of the loyal supporters of the T. C U down town are with you Dan, "stronger than ever before" and are looking forward to your next year's team which we feel confident will be the champion of the state. Mr Cahoon should be congratulated on the condition he had the grounds and stands in, and the able manner that he handled so large a crowd. We should congratulate Mr. Higgins in selling so many tickets in advance of the game. With such men as Mr. Daniel and Mr. Cahoon to lead our team next year, and the loyal spirit of the entire student body, I predict the most successful year for T. C. U. in athletics that she has ever had.—Advt. Two THK SKIFF A TRIBUTE THE SKIFF •n. If «u not, r.owever, a KM ■ of. VV.- met a team thai :. ilr>-ailv
