The kicking of Paul Krueger, Austin half back, stood the Brackenridge high school football' team on its head today, and Austin won to 0 in its opening clash for the district interscholastlc league championship. A touchdown in ths first period as a result of a long drive down the field gave Austin the advantage in the gams. Shelley enjoyed first gaining honors with Krueger, ripping off a consistent yardags through ths San Antonio line. Austin high went into ths gams with a considerable weight advantage, and Robertson's lads made use of this every opportunity the tesm had.

There are 1,425,000 qualified voters in Texas. Less than 800.000 participated in ths run-off primary where Mrs. Ferguson won and Judge Felix D. Robertson was sent back to the bench by a brutal majority of 100,000 while Red Headed Dan Moody won In the same run off over his opponent by 250,000 majority. For years and years thousands of democrats havs remained away from the polls primary election day and never ventured near the polls on general election day.

When the finals were settled in the democratic camp there were 625,000 qualified voters in Texas who remained out of the scrap and away from the polls. Now what they ars politically speaking no man knows. A noted business man of New York has said: Voting Is Obligation "The obligation to vote was laid on you by the men whose bleeding feet made red the snows of Valley Forge. Many of them gave their lives to win freedom. Can you refuse Just one day to preserve it? Is it worth so little to you to live under the stars and stripes, to bs secure In your home and business.

to worship God in your own way, to have full share in governing the' land. From tho lima ni wins inhn down too many men have lightly neglected the vots as if it were a right or a privilege. In the main, it is neither. The vote is the duty of citizenship in a democracy and unless all of us recognize that duty and faithfully perform it ws subject ourselves to the danger of control by a selfish and self-seeking few." GOP Ssid It The man who said it is a republican. This writer who applauds every word of it, is a democrat who votes the ticket straight All men and women of Texas who are qualified voters should go to the polls In November.

All those who voted In in the democratic primary should go to the polls. All the 626,00 who! did not go near the democratic primary should go to the polls in No-1 vember and cast their ballot. AH democrats should vote. Alii republicans should vote. All pro-j gresslves should vota.

All lndepend- ents should vote if they are able to find candidates who appeal to thelrj convictions or their conscience. This is democracy. Ths people srs not! the masters unless they vots on' election day for the candidates and' policies of their political choice, i This republic isn't going to this commonwealth isn't going to: hell, but ths place to settle policies' of government is at the ballot box' and the place to elect servants of; ths people is at ths polls.

Mayfield was eiccieu -w. scarcely made a dent on the political map. Four years ago James E. Ferguson organized an independent political party. He dragged 100,000 democrats out of the party.

Republicans were delighted. They felt that they saw an opening in the distance. When the votes were counted the same old brutal democratic majority was there Ferguson and bis army didn't create a ripple on the political ocean, Opposition Welcome. It must be true that without opposition or without an incentive a political party or an individual succumbs to dry rot and decay and dissolution finishes the dry rot. Aggressive opposition should be welcomed by any political organization.

Then the leaders are placed upon their mettle and the followers catch the spirit from afar and get in fighting trim. There is a breezy campaign on now and all the so-called political preachers as well as many professors or interpreters of dead and living languages are making frontal attacks on the democratic donkey. This has dragged the donkey out of his trance and he is kicking as vigorously as he did when Andrew Jackson was his idol and leader. EARL COOPER LEADS RAGE He Is First in Event. 250-Mile CHARLOTTE, S.

C. Oct. 25. Driving a consistent and at times brilliant race. Earl Cooper of Fresno, was flagged as the winner today of the 250-mile in augural race at the Charlotte auto mobile speedway.

His time was announced as 2 hours 9 minutes and 41.64 seconds, an average speed for the distance of 115.8 miles an hour. Bennett Hill was flagged second and Pete de Paolo third. Cooper by his victory wins 19000 as first prise and should the re-check show that he broke a record he will receive $500 additional. He also is credited with 250 points to ward the national racing champion ship. Although Starter Wagner flagged Cooper, Hill and De Paolo as first, second and third, it was announced immediately after the race that the result would not be official until a re-check of the timing and the lap records could be completed.

With loss than one minute to play. Cur-ley saved Chicago from defeat by Ohio State here this afternoon that would have put Coach Stagg's men out of the Western conference running, when he booted a field goal from the 19-yard line, the same ending in a 3-to-3 tie.

ARKANSAS WINS FROM OLE MISS, Bagby and Derby Twinkle In Victory. LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Oct 2a.

Flashing an offense at times brilliant, but marred by erratic breaks, the University of Arkansas this afternoon defeated the University of Mississippi 20 to 0. This was the first clash in 10 years. Bagby and Derby contributed several thrilling runs in the early periods, while Ful-bright, Winkleman and Stewart completed some beautiful passes in the closing minutes. After Mississippi kicked off, the Razorbacks carried the ball down the field and seemed headed for a touchdown, until stopped by penalties. After an exchange of punts, however, Bagby was sent around end for 44 yards and a touchdown.

Futrell kicked goal. "Ole Miss" made her only serious threaten the second period. After getting within 25 yards of the Arkansas goal, she could not gain, and a drop kick by Allen failed. The teams played evenly in the third period, but in the last period Bagby went over for a touchdown on a five-yard buck. Fulbright missed goal.

Ths Only Autherissd Fordsen TrscteP Sates snd Ssrvics Deslsrs for This Territory I Bulldogs Defend 50 -Yard Line Against Visitors. BARTLETT, Oct 25. The Bart-lett Bulldogs won from the Baylor football team on the Taylor grid-Iron one of the hardest fought battles ever witnessed by the Bartlett fans, the score being 14 to 0. Coach Hollls' pupils went into the game as the under dogs, but with a series of bucks they carried the ball over for a touchdown in the first period. Captain Overby of the Bulldogs played the greatest game of his life, tearing the Taylor line to pieces when gains were needed.

Bartlett'a goal was never in danger, as Taylor never crossed the 50-yard line. The second touchdown came as the result of an Intercepted forward pass, which Tipton grabbed on Taylor's 80-yard line and was stopped on the 1-yard line. Frank Overby carried the ball over and Moore kicked goal. No one Bartlett man could be picked as a star in the line. The Taylor captain played a good defensive game and Taylor's fullback was responsible for all of the gains they made.

Egger of "Southwestern was referee; Hardin of Southwestern, umpire: Cagle, head linesman; and Llndemann, timekeeper. The Bartlett Bulldogs will play the Belton Tigers on the Belton grid next Friday, and a magntfieenl gams is expected. Canyon Tumbles Simmons Cowboys AMARILLO, Oct. 25. The West Texas State Teachers' college Buffaloes upset the dope bucket at Canyon this afternoon when they defeated the Simmons College Cowboys, 12 to 6.

It was a hard fought battle, Simmons scored on a long punt downed on the Buffaloes one-yard line and a blocked punt in the first quarter, while the Buffaloes scored on a blocked punt in the second quarter and series of line bucks and a 40-yard forward pass in the third quarter. The Canyon backs plowed through the Simmons' line frequently and although Woolen, Walker, Estes and Hannah were able to make several spectacular runs for long gains they coud not put the ball across. The Cowboys resorted to a passing game almost entirely in the last quarter. Lynn Bomar Is Seriously Hurt NASHVILLE, Tenn Oct. 25.

The physicians state that he will eventually recover, but will never be able to play football again. It was his last year at Vanderbllt. Michigan Finds Another Star ANN ARBOR, Oct.

25. Michigan whipped Wisconsin, 21 to 0, today and found a new and dazzling gridiron meteor. Just as Red Grange of Illinois 'almost single-handed defeated the Wolverines a week ago, Ben Friedman of Cleveland, Ohio, beat Wisconsin today. Playing his first game as a regular, Friedman scored one touchdown on a 26 -yard run and mads forward passes that accounted for the other two. ing, for it would have indeed been a bitter experience to have to writs James E.

Ferguson's name on my ballot, but, so help me God, as an honest man, I would have dons it even though the heavens fell. Somewhere in ths old book I read God's definition of a gentleman that was fit to associate with him, and I have tried in my feeble way to be that kind of a gentleman. One of the specifications of the qualities of that gentleman is, 'be that sweareth to his own hurt and changettt bo, not only did I enter into a bar gain to which there was a valuable consideration, but I gave my word of honor in entering into that bar gain, and I don't know anything eise 10 ao dui lo Keep, that word. "Nothing tends so much to moral confusion as the failure define a deed in words that are clear-cut. unequivocal and strong.

Therefore. I must confess that if I fail to carry out the pledge made as mentioned above, I would count myself Just a simple- plain, every-day liar. And if I entered into a contract of this sort and then not only broke the contract, but went farther and ssked other men to break theirs I would have to writs my platform down In one simple plank: 'I am a liar and I want the support of all liars like Please pay attention to that fact that I am using these strong words about myself, but my moral philosophy would permit me no alternative. Having entered into a contract as thus stated, I shall feel that I have been defrauded by every man who falls to keep his part Of ths bargain under the circumstances, because this fundamental question In morals and political Christianity is more important than any man's election, and the question of clean conscience by the Golfers of the Austin Country club will be the first to "try uur' the new Lions municipal golf course when a score of the country "club's ejeperts go over the nw links today.

Smith, right end for Austin college, on -the first play of the game today scooped up a fumble by Strickland and ran 75 yards for a touchdown, which finally resulted in a 7-to-3 victory for the Kangaroos over the Baylor Bears here. Baylor kicked off and Hill. Kangaroo halfback, fumbled and Sisco, Baylor, recovered. It was here that Strickland's costly fumble took place. Smith had a seven-man interference and easily jogged the distance to the goal.

Bears Fumble Eight Times. Fumbles were many by both teams. Baylor fumbled eight times during the game and Austin college four, and ton nearly every occasion Baylor's fumbles proved costly. Bill Coffey, Bruin quarterback, who last year went through the season without fumbling a single punt, today fumbled three times, two of which were recovered by Austin college. Three times with the ball within striking distance of the goal Una the Kangaroo forwards held atrong.

Baylor once had the ball within three inches of the Austin college goal, but on fourth down Pittman, Baylor captain, was pushed back. Baylor also got within five yards of the goal on two other occasions, but lacked the punch to take the ball across. Basra Outfought. The Bears outplayed the Kangaroos, but were outfought and outgeneraled by their lighter opponents. After their famed spread formation had been stopped, Baylor resorted to forward passes in the fourth quarter, completing one for a gain of seven yards, but the others were either intercepted or grounded.

Baylor scored a field goal late In the second quarter, when Jones dropped back and place-kicked from the 24-yard line. A summary of the game showed that Baylor registered eight first downa to two for Austin college. A 25-yard run through Baylor's line by Hill and two successive end runa by Allred accounted for both of the visitors' first aowns. Baylor Drive Haltsd. Early in the second quarter Baylor started a drive that took them nearest their first chance for a touchdown.

Strickland ripped off 15 yards and this, with a five-yard penalty, put the ball on the Austin college five-yard line. Pittman made three yards and then one more but failed on the fourth down with three inches to go. Miller of Austin college fumbled a punt and it was recovered by Reed of Baylor on the visitors' 18 -yard line. -Baylor, by a short drive, took the ball to the visitors' three-yard but the ball went over on downs.

-Adv. Harold Rudolph and Akers Lead Drive. Coming back In true form after week off-color, the Texas Siients trampled the St. Mary's academy eleven yesterday afternoon on the deaf institute field with a 88 to 0 score. The game yesterday reflected a probable thorough working over given the "boys of the school since their pmo last week with the San Marcos iJaptlsts.

which resulted in a defeat fur the Sllents. Unlike most of their games this season, the Siients scored as many points In the first half as they did in the Their attack was unwavering, led by Harold Rudolph, who took the place of his brother, Harry, at quarterback. Akers, the hard-hitting fullback, made two touchdowns, Ablan made one touchdown by intercepting an academy pass, while Dunagan and Rudolph each made one. Akers kicked goal twice. Dunagan's uncanny knack for finding open and unguarded holes in St.

Mary's line accountr ed for many of the gains. The most outstanding feature of the game was the complete teamwork carried on by the Siients. gemeraled by Harold Rudolph. There were no stars for the deaf lads. They all starred.

The academy put up. a fight, but it was a losing deal for the St. Mary boys from the very beginning. The Silent will meet the Allen Baptist academy eleven In their next game, playing on the deaf institute fild, on Monday afternoon, Nov. 3.

"Let us apply now these great principles to one or two prcatical political matters upon which we as Christians are going to have to decide. First, there is a question of moral causintry, upon which much has been said, both pro and con. That question is a simple one: 'Is it inorally right for a man to break the pledge with which be bound himself when he voted in the Democratic primary, namely, "I will support the nominees of ths Democratic primary" I am awars that many subtle and metaphysical arguments have been brought to bear upon this question and will not speak, therefore, in general terms, but will only talk out of my own conception of my own duty and my own definitions in ths premises.
