Cagle has been flooded with messages to come to Shreveport. He is expected to visit his family at Merryville, during the Christmas holidays, and may arrange to perform here. The Legion, however, is careful in saying they have nothing definite on Cagle. I t's only their desire to have him here. Already quite a few acceptances to invitations to play here have been received from the grid athletes of Louisiana and Texas.

Many of the lads have been craving for just such a chance to get back into harness. eot as It Is today, but the swing of football's pendulum has brought well-earned recognition to players over a wider range of action than ever before. It has been conclusively proved that no one section any longer has a monopoly on star teams or star performers. Whatever shouting there inay hare been from the eastern hilltop, toward the close of November waa abruptly stilled after the event that transpired at the Yankee stadium under the direction of Oregon State and Stanford. Nowhere has the nationalizing process tn college football been so strikingly emphasized as In the sll-Amerloan consensus compiled by The Associated Pree in the four ears since the death of Walter Camp, father of the all-star idea.

Houston, however, let it be known that seven other clubs will have to give their patrons good ball if tlicy are go'tiitf to have any show in winning the pennant. After all. that is what the pay-as-you-enttr customers care for. With the Yanks in control at San Antonio there inifiht he a lively fight for pennnnt laurels between the Htars and the Huffs. The Yanks, it they go in for chain-store teams, will do it on a big scale.
