EDITORIALS
Dancing?
By MATTIE MAE McMINN
That President Roosevelt's prestige and popularity have suffered
a damaging relapse since his inauguration on Jan. 20 is an accepted fact. Political commentators
are currently engaged in the task
of polling and estimating the president's loss in votes. Boake Carter,
radio and newspaper editorialist,
estimates the vote loss at 2,000,000.
Revulsion of the political allegiance of a numerically large percentage of the 27,751,612 Americans who favored Roosevelt over
Landon last November is attributable in large part to the program
of radical legislation inaugurated
oy the administration at the last
session of Congress, namely, the
judiciary reform bill, the wages
and hours bill, the government reorganization bill, and the Tennessee valley bill.
Bringing the polling process to
S. M. U. in an effort to ascertain
the extent of Roosevelt's loss on
this campus, this reporter interviewed a total of 40 students,
equally divided among those of
senior, junior, sophomore, and
freshman rating, and among masculine and feminine students.
LET YOUR MIND ALONE
Here is a new book you should
read, according to the column,
Under Cover, in the Baylor university paper. "Let Your Mind Alone"
by James Thurber is the name.
The author says, "Your mind may
not be much gopd, but it's all
you've got to misunderstand with
and if you set to tinkering it may
turn on you and inflict a poisonous bite!" That is his idea of the
subject.
DANCING ON THE CAMPUS
Ballroom dancing is sponsored
as part of the sports program on
the Texas Tech campus.
The Toreador, Tech paper, says
that cow-education is the word for
it at Eastern New Mexico Junior
college. Bossie is helping put several youths through school. Bringing their cows to the campus, they
are selling milk to pay expenses.

am prejudiced against A. & M. is
because of the beating they gave
the Mustangs last year, to the tune
of 22-6. This licking was a disgrace to the bearers of the Red and
Blue colors of S. M. U., and I hope
the Mustangs can avenge this disaster.
The last reason I have for beating A. & M. is the dirty deal that
was handed our coach, Matty Bell,
when he was coaching at College
Station. He lost quite a few games
down there, or rather his football
team lost quite a few games, and
the alumni of the Aggies fired him
from the coaching staff. He did
not have the material to beat a
high school team while he was
down there, but of course the
alumni did not stop to consider
this. They thought that he should
win anyway. From there, Bell went
to S. M. U., and has proven himself
to be • one of the best coaches in

declaring "It was the principle of
the thing. We couldn't let Liberty

Whatever the outcome, S.M.U. is

What makes Mustang band music run wild ?
At every jam session, there is
an arrangement in black and white
lurking in the background. Those
responsible for such written measures are Henry Waggoner and
George Sebastian, a pair of Mustaing band aces, supplemented by
Director Frank Malone.
When a clarinetist forgets himself in a rendition of "St. Louis
Blues;" when the trombones moan
and grumble over "Caravan," the
credit is due Waggoner, former
Sunset high student and de luxe
guitarist with local dance bands.
He is official librarian for the 1937
Mustang band and has had five
years' practical experience in arranging music. He is a major in
business administration. His medley of Script and Score tunes and
variations of 'Teruna" especially
interest fans.
Sophomore G e o r g e Sebastian
does band arrangements which are
anything but sophomoric. He plays
drums and piano and lists public
school music as his major subject.
"Satan Takes a Holiday" leads the
Sebastian group with "Study in
Brown," "Bugle Call Rag," and
"Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" following.
Mark graduated from Oak Cliff
high school and has studied with
Mark Philipps.

FRAT FOOTBALL TO
BEGIN WITH FIRST
Football is the next scheduled
intramural sport to be run off, according to Buddy Foster, men's intramural director. Games will start
Wednesday, Oct. 27, and will be
played on the football field behind
the girls' dormitory. As a rule,
football is the most important
sport, as far as student interest
is concerned, although it counts
no more points toward the intramural championship plaque than
any of the other sports.
Interclass and independent basket ball is scheduled to get under
way Monday, Oct. 25. Foster urges
that all independent teams send
their entries to him as soon as possible. Men who participated in intra-fraternity basket ball are also
eligible to play in this tournament.
Duty is the demand of the hour.
