TMI SIX THOUSAND WITNESSED THE GAME SOONERS HAD CLOSE CALL Kendall College Held Oklahoma to a 1 4 to 1 3 Score in Greatest Surprise of the Southwest Gridiron Results. $5,635.45 Actual Gate Receipts of Sewanee-Texas Game on Gala Day for Students. Preii KrL TVLSX. November The University of Oklahoma foot tall tram undefeated claimants of the 115 championship In the Southwest, kept Its record ilear by a single point victory over Henry Kendall college here today.

The score was II to 13 and the university team was behind until the third quarter of what proved the hardest game of the season to the eleven which had defeated Texas, MiKsouri and Kansas. Kendall determination and generalship made them the most dangerous opponents the university has faced this season. Kxpecting to win by a good margin, the Sooners showed their desperateness when Captain Geyer's long passes were repeatedly broken up and six times intercepted by Kendall men who returned for good gains. Kendall made the first touchdown after three minutes of plfly by the two line plunges, 20-yard forward pass and two wide end runs, the last one sending Ha use over the goal. A 45-yard pass by Young to Miller gave Kendall their last score in the third quarter.

Captain Groves kicked goal. Johnson. Oklahoma quarterback, made the first touchdown for his team in the last 35 seconds of play in the second quarter on a forward pass from Geyer. Line plunges by Capshaw gave them the PIGSKIN BOOTERS 0 xxn A' 'WWT aHam -v the followers of the game will have an opportunity to see him in action. Brown has also icelved a challenge from Walter Miller, one of the crack 158-pound men who has been dolrtfc things in the Middle West this year.

The terms are still under consideration, but it is probable that the men will be matched to come together in Houston late Id December or early hi January. John Kllonla is anxious for another match in Houston, and a letter has been sent Joe Turner and Fritx Hanson, who lives in Wilmington, N. asking them If they ould come to Houston for a match. Kilonls has met Turner, but has never met Hanson. Montour wishes to come to Houston to meet Brown, but has made such terms that It is hardly probable a match can be arranged.

However, the negotiations will not be terminated until It Is seen that the men can not be brought together. In their last meeting In Taylor Brown won the decision and the Indian is not satisfied. Cutler, the Heavyweight, is anxious to come to Houston and to bring a couple of men of lighter weight with him. The heavyweights have never wrestled here and It is possible that a match will be sought for him. Cutler is one of the top-notchcrs and it will take effort to get a man to keep him active.

the Question of the best twe out of three. Nearly 2 WO people saw Liberty finally defeat Sugar Land In a wonderful series which ended last Sunday. Six games were necessary to decide two out of three, for three games ended tn ties that ran Into extra innings and darkness. In Sunday's name the Tailors and Lib erty have decided to start early, and the game will be on promptly at 3 p. m.

Sledd Allen and. Johnny Frierson of th Buff regulars win umpire. Spectators will see some clever baseball. and game played as only amateurs can play with all the baseball enthusiasm a player can have. That it sometimes proves more effective than the cleverness of regular league players la shown by Hie faot that the Tailors trimmed the members of the regular Houston team after the league season was over.

Bellmont. athletic director of the State university, last night. Receipts almost reached 16000, being 15635.46 to be exact. As actual expenses of staging the game, including the heavy $2500 guarantee to Sewanee, amounted to 13800, the athletic council has not quite $1500 to record as profit on the day's excursion to Houston.

But for the students there was more there was a holiday and a day of real fun-making in Houston a day of cor-, uibi reunion wun me aiumni, ana xne knowledge that the bonds between the alumnus and undergraduates of the Uni versity of Texas had been knit Just a little closer by the spontaneous outburst of football enthusiasm. There were nearly eight hundred in the Austin delegation to the Houston game, including members in the univer sity faculty, students and residents of Austin interested In the progress of the eleven. Probably, a thousand other Texas alumni came from different points to see tne game. Sewanee's delegation of old Mountain Men must have numbered at least five hundred men. The crowd Is the best Texas nlaved to in Houston since the severing of relations wun Agricultural ami mecnamcai in 1911.

The Texas students reached Houston early and mostly in a body, as the train from Austin arrived in two sections almost simultaneously. And from the start, In the capable hands of earnest alumni preparation, the students were well taken care off. The faculty members were entertained at the alumni breakfast at the Rice, the girls were chaperoned to the woman's breakfast at the Bender, prepared by local Texas co-ed-alumnae, and the male students found the Richmond lunch ready Texas A. and M.

In Rice the Aggies will cope with the same sort of youngsters that they met In Haskell, speed men, and last Saturday's defeat of the Indians showed that the College Station lads can hold their own against fast men.

The only two by-play features of the parade were the Texas float. In which' "Sewanee's goat" was tied, and another jn which Sewanee had the Texas longhorn boxed. The Sewanee alumni carried their huge pictorial representation of the Sewanee tiger, while Texas students In the parade carried many banners with patriotic criticizing legends. After the parade the Sewanee luncheon occurred, while there was no formal Texns ceremony excepting E.
