Croucher Stands Out 
For Longhorns

BY BILL WHITMORE
Texan Sport* E ditor

HOUSTON, Jan. 7— For

torrid R ice Owls a real b attle, b ut 
then the S outhw est C onferen ce 
favorites, 
in an am azing display 
o f speed, sure-shooting, and team ­
work, m ade it a runaw ay to hum­
the S teers, 62-38, here to­
ble 
night.

A ll-A m erican Bob K m ney and 
I v truly great band o f team m ates 
sim ply had too much o f every ­
thing as th ey show ed fiv e thous­
and fan s a t the gigan tic C oliseum 
that they really rate the role o f 
confer, n ee favorites.

K inney w as a one-m an show a s 
he poured in shots from all sid es 
o f the T exas basket to score 25 
points— and he didn’t even p lay 
the la s t eigh t m inutes when th e 
second team s played fo r exp eri­
ence w ith the outcom e easily se t­
tled.

The Owls go t o f f to a fa st sta rt

Ii 3 first-h alf rally, riftin g a cou­
ple o f his fam iliar lon g shots and 
con trolling the bail w ell 
in set­
tin g up plays.

But those Owls cam e back in 
tho second h alf with a rush that 
sim ply w ore the S teers down. B ig 
Les Sander had done a pretty good 
in check 
j b o f holding K inney 
up to th at tim e, even though ho 
had scored tw elve points, but then 
the rangy Owl leader g o t ou t o f 
J c

Texas went to a Boston tea 
party during the Christmas holi­
days— and came away with the 
spoils— when Louis Bloom and Da­
vid Farb, delegates from the local

brought back with them :

(1) The best delegation cup, 
won on a basis of participation, 
traveled, and number o f 
miles 
delegates attending.

(2) A medal awarded to the 
local chapter advisor, Morris S. 
Goldstein, businessman, for being 
the best of the national frater­
nity,

(3 ) A scrapbook embossed with 
the fraternity colors and crest, 
and two tobacco pouches as gifts.
Bloom and Farb, who are past
and present masters o f the local 
chapter respectively, were in Bos­
ton from December 29-31 spread­
ing all the Texas propaganda they 
could by wearing cowboy boots 
and hats, and by presenting the 
Supreme Master of the convention 
with a ten-gallon hat.

The Gamma Deuteron chapter 
received further recognition by be­
ing cited by the national rush 
chairman for outstanding rushing 
activities.

Ameche Movie Entertains

Bg LIZ SUTHERLAND

A picture that will start you 
wondering how much o f the real 
news o f the war we are getting 
is “ Confirm or D eny,” the effec­
tive story o f a London newspaper­
man who sacrifices the greatest 
news story since the discovery of 
Livingstone in a last minute deci­
sion. The picture will show at 
the P a ra m o u n t through Friday.

Don Ameche does surprisingly 
well as the ace news-hawk who 
gives his blood, sweat and tears to 
get the biggest story of his ca­
reer . . . H itler’s invasion of Eng­
land. B ut fo r the first time in 
his life, the correspondent is un­
able to “ Confirm or Deny,” for to 
do either would break faith. So 
it stands today . . . the unanswered 
question of the w a r: “Did 
the 
Nazis attem pt an all-out*invasion 
of E n glan d?”

Joan B ennett plays opposite 
Ameche as the English girl who

tries to persuade Ameche that the 
war is not being waged solely for 
the newspapers. A very promis­
ing young newcomer is Roddy Mc- 
Dowall, who has also established 
his ability in “ How Green was My 
Valley.” He is not as British as 
Freddie Bartholomew but much 
more sincere.

One of the strongest touches in 
the entire film is the blind reporter 
played by Arthur Shields. He 
gives a “thumbs-up” performance.
To your inevitable question, “ la 
it propaganda?” we would reply, 
it’s propaganda, but find 
“Yes, 
something besides last year’s La­
dies Almanac that 
isn’t.” The 
word “propaganda” has been so 
broadened by the American peo­
ple that it has come to include 
anything from Churchill’s visit to 
the B l9.

“Confirm or Deny” 

is highly 
recommended as a most enter­
taining picture.

An added attraction 

is Bob 
Benchley’s “Nothing but Nerves” 
which is so-so.

,T rHIS MAY SOUND peculiar in times of 

national distress, but:—

It w as encouraging this w eek to see the 
preliminary final examination schedule in 
the window outside the Registrar's Office 
the world
draw the crowds away from 
maps in other display cases.

The nine th ou sa nd students in th e Uni­
versity have one job RIGHT N O W , an d it 
ie not around on the other side of 
th e 
earth.

Their one responsibility this month to 
themselves, to their families, and p e r h a p s 
to the country, is to complete the semes ter 
they have s t a r t e d — and complete it well.

After F e b r u a r y I, let each man account 

enlv to his own conscience.

W i t h d r a w a l figures have not been as­
tronomically high, t r u e ; which ma y s ug ­
gest t h a t th e a f t e r m a t h of “ R em em be r 
Pearl H a r b o r ” was not too destructive to 
the school year, ma ybe not destructive 
enough in th e light of patriotism.

Much too prevalent, however, has b er n

the attitude of those who rationalize: “I 
w on ’t be back next semester anyway, or 
at least I w on ’t be able to finish my degree 
work, so why should I exert m yself on the
subjects I am t a k i n g n o w ? ”

T h e y a r e fooling no one b u t themselves, 
if th a t. W ere these persons leaving to en­
t e r some service, t h e re m ig ht be some e x ­
cuse for d r op pin g their books. But t h e y 
a re not. Most definitely th e y a r e not s er v ­
ing the victory ef fo rt when t h e y come up 
with D ’s and F ’s or fail to t a k e the final.

As for those who r em a in in school by 
the grac e of th e ir d r a f t boa rd or th e Navy, 
it can be said t h a t they ar e bei ng allowed 
to stay to finish th e ir edu ca tio n a nd it is 
the ir DUTY to keep faith with th e go ver n­
me nt by t a k in g every a d v a n t a g e of the op­
portun ity a w a r d e d them.

So, d r a g yourself a w a y from t h a t radio 
a minute (and t h a t com edy sh ow y o u ’re 
listening to instead of the n ew s) an d drop 
those p ap er s a while ( an d 
those comic 
s e c t i o n s ) ; you can still learn a lot of things 
in books and classes.

Parade of Opinion

Seven S im p le IV aui 
To 'Keep. Cool'

Q E V E N RULES for mainta in ing w ar tim e 
^ civilian morale have been outlined by 
Dr. Irving J. Lee of N o rth w es te rn Un iver­
sity, an ex p e r t on the psychology of an x ­
iety. F o r a nu m b e r of year s Dr. Lee has 
applied the principles back of these rules 
to ma ny cases of s tag e fright with a m a z ­
ing success.

“ The position of m a n y A me ric ans to­
d a y , ” he points out in a release of th e As­
sociated Collegiate Press, “ is analo gou s to 
t h a t exp erienced in stage fright. This sit­
uation, if perm itted to continue, mig ht lead 
to a deterioration of civilian m o r al e. ”

Points to be r e m e m b e r e d by all civilians 

d u r in g the crisis a r e :

1. Center your attention on yo u r task- 
at -h a n d an d seek new ways of helping.
2. D on ’t feel t h a t the whole b u r de n 
rests on you. J u s t do something, h o w ­
ever small, and the net result will be 
great.

3. W o rr y in g a bo ut a situation dissi­
pat es your energy, leads to more worry, 
and saps y ou r efficiency for necessary 
work.

4. D o n’t exp ec t too much. P r e p a r e for 
bad news. It isn’t the pain, bu t th e aur- 
pri»e coming of th e pain t h a t hurts. Re­
m e m b e r t h a t the anticipation of d a n g e r 
has a protective effect.

5. Question all rumors. Don ’t let th e m 

aff ec t you emotionally.

6. Tr us t those in authority. They are 
the only ones in a position to know the 
facts.

7. Do n’t w orr y n e a r children. The y 
a re easily excitable and sp re ad anxiety 
quickly.

J u s t as an inexperienced public s p e a k e r 
allows his worry a bo ut the audience or his 
own failings to dist ra ct his th ou gh ts from 
the ta lk he is to make, so ma ny civilians 
dissipate the ir energies w orrying ab out 
conditions t h e y ca nn ot control and 
lose 
t h e ir effectiveness for necessary duties.

Civilians often w or ry so much a b ou t w a r 
conditions t h a t th e y lose efficiency in the ir 
work and the ir personal lives. This 
in­
creases their anxiety. Any prolongation of 
w orry leads first to inefficiency, the n to 
personal b re a k d o w n . At a 
time when 
America needs the full efficiency of ev ery ­
one, it is essential t h a t we realize w h a t our 
imme dia te ta^k is and do not allow’ w o r r y 
to distract us.”

the 

Much has been written about the e ffe c tiv e use 
Hitler made of meteorology in the early days o f 
the war. It is said in planning his attacks on other 
countries he followed the advice o f his m eteorol­
ogists as much as his military advisers.

Hitler began his invasion of Poland at a time 
when the usual rainy season was about to start.
I he Poles 
thought his heavy mechanized army 
soon would be bogged down in the deep black mud 
o f their country. They were counting on “ General 
Mud 
to save the day for them. To their surprise 
and chagrin the rainy season did not begin until 
week-- 
later, after Germany*s army had time to 
overrun Poland.

It was not just a happen so or Providence that 
in this campaign, but rather the 
favored Hitler 
information and advice given him by his m eteor­
ologists that there would be an exception to the 
usual weather conditions in Poland and the rainy 
season would be delayed a few weeks.

in other countries 

exceptional weather conditions 
vail 

Likewise, scientists kept him informed as to the 
that would pre­
later conquered by him.
The extent and thoroughness of the Axis power’s 
meteorological methods and forecastin g were re­
vealed recently when 
their meteorologists with 
proper equipment were discovered near the Arctic 
Circle 
in the north part of Greenland. In short 
wave codes they transmitted to collogues in Ger­
many information which could be used in forecast­
ing accurately weather conditions at certain times 
in d ifferen t localities.

Scientists have proved that most o f our unusual 
weather conditions in the Northern Hemisphere are 
born in the Arctic regions. By ascertaining weather 
conditions in this weather cradle land and plotting 
the rapidity of their development 
general 
movement, experts can tell with considerable ac­
curacy what the conditions will be during the sev- I 
era! months thereafter in the d iffer en t countries. 
This accounts for Hitler sending some of his m e t e - 1 
otologist* to the Arctic. Surely tho Allies, if they I 
already are not doing so, soon will do the same 
thing.

and 

Scientists also have proved that w eather phen­
in the stratosphere have definite I 
omena high up 
bearing on the kind o f weather that will prevail 
in d ifferen t localities over rather wide period of j 
time. By knowing such, meteorologists can make 
fairly accurate short and long tim e forecasts. In ; 
recent years they have been sending balloons with 
recording equipment high up into the stratosphere, 
in forma­
which gives full, definite and accurate 
tion o f conditions in that region.

Closely linked with the changing conditions in 
the Polar regions and the stratosphere are the anti­
cyclones and cyclones commonly called “ high" and 
“ low ” pressure areas, that move across the face of 
the earth on land and sea. Scientists well know the 
kind o f w eather that will accompany these m ove­
ments -m l the laws controlling same are almost as 
fixed as the law o f gravity. With widespread and 
instant means of communication through the radio 
they can check constantly and accurately the in ­
tensity, rapidity, and trend o f such movements. 
This it can be seen why recently enem y submar­
ines were able to pick a favored tim e for an attack 
on our ships at sea after receiving information as 
to the kind of weather prevailing a chort time prior 
thereto up in the Dakotas.

is d ep en dent 

No part o f our m ilitary service is m ore depen- 
lent on m eteorology than aviation. The su ccess of 
our fly in g over 
jn 
long d istances 
know ing beforehand the w eather conditions. We 
are told that on every airplane carrier a t sea :herc 
is a m eteorology o ffic e r w hose orders as to flig h ts 
and attacks are suprem e. A ttack p lanes o ften have 
a range of over a thousand m iles in hunting enem y 
ships and must know the w eather that will be en ­
countered. It is recognized that success in this wai 
will depend on control o f the air and with success 
ful fligh ts and attacks.
