The Georgia Tech Yell ow jackets 
yesterday opened their post-sea­
son practice for their clash with 
the California Bears in Rose Bowl 
a t Pasadena New Year’s IMy. The 
“laid off" 
Yellowjackets have 
training for a week now, 
and 
“ Modest” Bill Alexander has or­
dered his men to take nothing but 
the lightest of light exercise for 
the first few days of work. Though 
the enfluenza epidemic which hit 
his squad as the race in the South­
ern Conference drew to a close has 
lifted, Bill is afraid to be exul­
tan t over the outlook. The date 
for the departure of the Yellow­
jackets for the coast has been 
kept a secret.

University 

students will get 
their second opportunity to see 
the Steers in action Friday 
and 
Saturday nights when they meet 
the Southwest Texas State Teach­
a two- 
ers' College quintet in 
game series. The admission 
to 
the games will be by means of 
tickets which will be issued on the 
presentation of the blanket taxes 
at the office of the athletic depart­
ment, Z Hall, Wednesday morning. 
This will be the first time 
that
the plan which has been adopted 
for the conference games will be

Dr. H. S. Ettiinger, director of 
athletics, has promised that Texas 
will have the most attractive base­
ball schedule in her history next 
spring. Already exhibition games 
have been carded with the Yanks, 
Giants and the Ozaka team from 
athletic officials 
Japan. Texas 
are now attempting to get games 
with a number of the big colleges 
in the mid-west. Michigan, Illi­
nois and Notre Dame are being 
considered.

The annual eligibility war that 
is being waged to determine what 
school has a clear title to 
the 
state high school football cham­
pionship and that is causing 
a 
stir in the northern part of the 
state was developed over an in-

of

“ The whole situation in a n u t­
shell,” said Mr. Henderson in an 
afternoon, 
interview Monday 
the 
“arises from the fact that 
state committee is prevented by 
the rules of the 
plan 
from interfering with the actions 
of the district 
committee. The 
action of the state executive com­
mittee in ruling Squyres of C le­
burne ineligible, but permitting 
the team to continue in the race 
grew out of a strict following of 
the Interscholastic rules.’’
Section eight of the 

football 
plan which states: ‘lf a team that 
is certified as district champion 
has won any conference game by 
the use of an ineligible player the 
said district shall be disqualified
jn the state race,’ is the bone of
contention. By this ruling Cle­
burne could be ruled ineligible if 
it were not for the fact th at tho 
district committee 
in District 4 
ruled Squyres, the player under 
dis­
discussion, eligible for the 
trict games, and Cleburne did not 
play the man in the Cleburne-Sun- 
set game. The state committee is 
prevented by Section 6 of 
the 
football plan from interfering in 
any way with the rulings of the 
district committee 
in any ques­
tions of eligibility within the dis­
trict.

ABILENE, Dec. 17.— Port Ar­
thur and Abilene will clash here 
the
1928 state high school football 
title. This was decided in Waco 
Sunday afternoon when the offic­
ials of the two schools met in a 
c o n f e r e n c e that lasted four hours 
before the 
decision was finally 
reached.

V a r i o u s cities styling themselv 
es a s being in neutral territory put 
in bids for the game, but all were 
rejected by the officials in the ses 
sion. Most of the cities that made 
bids for the game were located in 
Central Texas.

This will be the first titular bat­
tle to be waged in Abilene thougji 
the Eagles have been state final 
isis four times prior to this year.
Dope will favor the Eagles in 
the final clash of tho year by 
their powerful

ets from the coast are expected 
to give the locals a hard fight for 
the honors.

the 

The Porkers completely out­
classed the visitors in both games, 
and were never in danger from the 
start to the end.

By their impressive showing in 
the two games, the Porkers served 
notice on an already worried con­
ference that they will be after 
their fourth consecutive basketball 
championship, an honor which no 
other conference team has ever 
been able to attain.

A serious threat to the Porker’s 
supremacy will come from Texas 
where two teams on their pre-sea­
son showing appear to be the most

to the Porkers.

PRINCETON GOES HIGH H A T

“ A recent survey made by the Princeton Alum ni W eekly ehows 
that the high silk hat or opera hat is being generally worn by P rince­
ton student* on formal occasions for the first time since before the 
War. Tills recently notieable trend is indicative o f a tendency toward 
greater form ality in dress am ong the undergraduates, m ost o f whom, 
have for the past year worn the black derby and C hesterfield.

At the senior prom three weeks ago, 40 opera hats w ere worn 
by the undergraduates attending the dances. A week later on the oc­
casion o f the joint Yafe-Prineeton musical club's concert, 22 o f the 
high hats were cc unled.

“Inquiries of the local hat retailers reveal that Princeton men 
really are buying the silk hat. One hat man said that he had sold 24 
o f the dignified top pieces during the past few weeks None w hat­
ever wore sold here last yea r.”— Cornell Daily Bun.
