But this quiet and unassuming fellow never watched ft with more delight than he did Saturday. It was a triumph for th Owl coach. Ho had worked for th victory three years. Twice he had to com home with a defeat. It was the fourth time the Owls have played the Longhorns but Arbuckle had no hope the first time.

The other victory for Arbuckle was back in 1909 the Southwestern team scored 11 points while the Texas eleven was getting a total of nine. Arbuckle was coaching the team that has since come to be known as the Tirates. Arbuckle Is the prince of Texas football coach.es. His words are few and are those of a gentleman on the field and off. His deeds may be few but they cut deep, as two Longhorn teams can now testify.

If the Owls can now do as much to the Asgies Thanksgiving, another poal long sought will have been reached by Ar-bucivle. a State championship.

Sewanee 7, At Chattanoonga, J. W. McFarland. To J. W.

McFarland goes the honor of leading the Owl team to iU first victory over the Longhorns. The Owl leader Is not much in pounds. He weighs but 14. Still he plays guard anJ matches his pounds and his nerve with the excess he often has to give. The Rice captain is a Brownwood boy, who won his spurs last year with the owls.

They like him at Rice, as his election last year shows. No doubt he considers It about enoiiKh honor to bo the first captain to get a victory at Austin. But ie will be tring just as hard in the games that follow. If the Owls do not take the State title, it will not be for lack of effort on the part of the captain. If the Owls do come out Thanks-giivng lav with the big end of the score, no small part of the glory will be due the captain of the Rice eleven of 1917.

Opening as a punting duel between Rip Collins of the Aggies and Ives of the Tigers, the game went through one full quarter and deep into th second before either side could get results. In this aerial duel Collins had the edge, and it was largely due to the clever manner in which little Marian flashed back In his retumsf to Ives' long spirals.

Favored by the wind In the first period Ives held his own for distance. But Mahan gave Collins the edge, and the Texans steadily and surely worked the ball up the held to strlKIng distance, where a forward pass, Collins to Weir, broke the scoring ice. But It was not lung before the game became a rout. I'nablc to gain at all after the first quarter against the steady Texas defense, the Loutsiania eleven time and again resorted to punts. Texas gained until stopped and tnen Collins sent his spirals down the field, covered in gallant style by hi ends and tackles.

And he capped his great toe work for the day with two beautiful f.eld goals one ot them covering a distance of 42 yards. The other, also made in the final period, was for 20 yards. Time and again when the Aggies were forced to punt about midfleld, Collins would try a drop kick Instead of a spiral. Once from past midlield he missed, scoring thus by a few feet. Finally he sailed the long one between the upright with yards to spare and the fans were satisfied.

Many had stuck around through Louisiana's rout. Just to see Collin deliver a field goal. Then they went home. It was one of the iongvst scrimmage goals ever scored in Texas football history. The lineup: A.
