Texas came very near icorlng again when Vln- Ing recovered a kick some forty yards down the field and was tackled on the. ten-yard line, southwestern recovered their spirit and were carrying the ball down the field al a terrific rate with forward pass when Leonard and Massln- gllt stopped their progress by remarkable tackles and Estlll distinguished himself by a tackle, throwing the runner by a fifteen-yard loss. The game with the ball in Southwestern'a possession on their own twenty-five- yard line. Weak The weakest point In the work of the Texas team was their line, which riddled at will by the Southwestern back field.

Texas failed to gain on bucks during the first part of the game. unil only In the fow minutes preceding tlio second touchdown used themselves affectively. Southwestern made long und consistent gains with bucks except ut critical times, when Texas braced close to their own goal line and held them. Texas also failed to get together on end plays, and their Interference torn up repeatedly. Forward passing was their salvation, winning the game.

Southwestern did not make, a great deal of use of the forward pass, and made their chief calm with end runs and line bucks. Individually the Southwestern players made a remarkable Dhowlng. While their line did not show any brilliant form, It Is doubtful If four more brilliant players ever appeared on the Texas gridiron than Hoadrlck, Volgt, McHenry and Snipes. Headrlck and volgt plugged the line Cor long gains. Snipes phenomenal work behind the line and McHenry run back punts, Intercepted forward passes and carried the ball In great style.

For Texas, Leonard. Estlll and Masslnglll showed up splendidly on defensive work, and Spoonts was very effective In receiving forward passes. The Southwestern team had the, advantage of longer practice and more thoroughly developed style of offense. Texas showed promise of developing a great game, and many of their faults may bo excused trom the fact that they have not had more than three or four scrimmages. Very Inadequate facilities were furnished to the newspaper men for reporting the field, they being denied side line privileges, und no reporters' box In the grandstand was provided.

Probably never before on a- Texas gridiron were newspaper men treated as at this time, During one stage of the game, while they were attempting to catch the details of the play, they were rushed by a mob of i'exus students who were attempting to clear the fence, and hardly escaped severe handling.
