After battling from one end of the field to the other for three quarters the superior reserve strength of the Texas Longhcrns, plus the flying feet of big Jay Arnold and Jud At chlson, paved the way for a specta cular 19-13 victory over a game, but tired Centenary eleven. ft For the Gtvitlemen it was the mighty arm of Neal "Pug" Crowther who almost speited defeat for the Steers. He laid the pigskin down the middle to ends and backs dur Ing the first period, until the lnvad' ers reached pay dirt at the conclU' slon of eight minutes of play.

A proud and haughty Tiger, well fed, petted and pampered, bearing decorations from the experts of tha effete East, and ready for a feast on wild hog meat, was forced to dis card his Roman holiday attire Saturday afternoon at the State Fair grounds, return to his savage Jungle ways, and fight with all the fury of a beast to escape with his own hide. The University of Arkansas Razor-backs, picked for an easy "killing" by shrewd observers of the pigskin sport, turned on the Tigers of Louisiana State with a stubborn defense, and held their own ground until th closing minutes of the battle when a 17-yard left end sweep by "Pinky" Rohm, running from a right lng-back position, left him fatally wounded. The Razorbacks struck back In an effort to again get on even footing, but crumbled before a brilliant goal line stand that turned back eight thrusts that needed only a four-yard gain to a touchdown, and the possibility of another tie In the score. The final result was 13 to 7, with the Tiger standing In triumph for th sixteenth time since their first battle was waged back In 1901, and with the thirteenth victory the Razor-backs scored In 1929 still holding forth as a Jinx to the Cardinal and White color bearers from Fayettevllle. Ten thousand persons witnessed the spectacle, the attendance falling live thousand short of the goal set by Louisiana State Fair, and the hugh crowd poured out or the stadium not knowing whether to cheer for the Tigers or the Hogs.

Failure to gain only three yards In about eight attempts, when a score would have placed them within one point of the enemy, robbed the Arkansas crew of much of the brilliance that it had exhibited through three and two-thirds quarters. In the same light the goal line stand that the Bengals made added to the glory that had been denied them almost throughout the game.

They have been given a choice spot, being assigned to play the Gentlemen at the Louisiana State Fair. The squad Is the Texas Christian University Horned Frogs of Fort Worth. When the Gents were making an early bid for major competition, the Frogs gave them a place on their 1923 schedule.

It was the break the Shreveport grid warriors of those days were looking for, and they responded by handing T.C.U. a 23-to-0 lacing. It took three years for the Frogs to get over that loss. They failed to book Centenary again until 1926, and they then wiped out their previous defeat by a score of 24 to 14. Like other members of the Southwest conference, the Frogs are on the big end of the defeat column In battles with the Gents.

They have dropped three games and won but two, and have one tie. It has been two years since they have tasted victory against Centenary but they are well set this fall. They already have proven their worth. They are capable of matching the Gents In weight and experience. The game will be the third in a row for Centenary against a Southwest conference member, leaving only Baylor's Golden Bears from that organization yet to be tested.

Big Conway Baker. Centenary tackle, covered himself with glory by his superb line play during the remainder of the first period. He stopped the Texas running attack cold and further added to his laurels by recovering a Texas fumble. Centenary threatened to score again In the first stanza after the Gentlemen recovered Arnold's fumble on the Texas 40-yard line. Crowther passed to Parker for nine jUirds and Cohan made It a first down on the Texas 33.

Cohan then made five over tackle, but Sands Intercepted Cohan's long pass to Parker on the Texas five-yard line. Pltzer got off a poor punt to the 27-yard line, but the Gentlemen's passing attack bogged down and Crowther was forced to kick. From there Atchison and Arnold started a drive that ended with Atchison tossing a long aerial to Johnny Morrow for the tying touchdown. Small added the extra point.

Of course, sentiment for the battle will be swayed by the fact that It Is to be planned for the free milk fund, but surely the sporting fans deserve more protection. The clove racket Is Just returning to popularity In the east, and feeding Louis such setups as Vzrudun will not help It along.

There are a number of younger and more promising fighters In the heavyweight division than Czru-dun and we wonder now what has become of the plan to match Max Schmcling against the Detroit negro. Uzcudun Is "done" as a fighter, if he ever was one. He's tough. It Is true, but that is all. He could not beat Primo Camera, losing in 15 rounds, and how can he be expected to show anything against Louis? He is 36 years old and started his ring campaign in 1923.

A homecoming crowd of 16.200 Jammed the stadium to watch Kansas State outplay the vaunted Huskers from the drop of the hat In defending the title they won last year by surprising Nebraska. It was Ayers, swift 145-pounder, aided by Injured Maurice (Red) Elder, all-Big Six fullback, who supplied the dash and power of two State scoring threats, while a crippled line silenced the big guns of th- Husker attack, Lloyd Caldwell and Jerry Lanoue.

Midway In the final period, after Elder intercepted a Nebraska pass, Ayers took Ted Warren's pass on the Husker 37, squirmed his way for 30 yards before being brought down on the 7. A pass failed, Ayers plunged for two yards, and then Warren dropped back and tried for a place kick. The kick was wide.

DIZZY DIGGING OWN GRAVE Jerome (Dizzy) Dean has walked out on his audience twice In the past week, which should not add to his popularity to any great extent. Dean refused to pitch a game In Chattanooga because the fans stayed away from the park In droves, and did the same thing In New Orleans Friday.

It means the difference between being a member of a world championship team and an ex-champlonshlp outfit. If Dean places his value so highly, he should demand a guarantee on his baseball tour. An athlete Is entitled to only what he can draw at the gate. If Dean's name on a baseball advertisement mean no more that 100 in gate receipts, then he should have taken his medicine. He probably is well fixed financially, and may never have to return to the minors, but should he drift back to the Southern association he won't be very popular In two of the league's cities.

A heavy shower Just before the 19-yard pass from Stapp to Bryant. A forward lateral, Stapp to Bryant to Smith, gained 15 and Smith scored added the extra point.
