WILLIS NOLAN of Santa Roaa,
who lor some unknown reason »
called 'Slobberin' Willie ’ by his
teammate* ai A AM, will ring
down the curtain on hus South
West conference football career
against the Longhorns today. Wil
li* had a long hard pull to make
the Aggie eleven but this year the
critic* are giving him a chance
at the All-Conference layout. A
story from Aggieland about the
Valiev boy reads.
"Like many other future stars,
Nolans name was little known
when he came to A AM. in the fall
of 1929 from Santa Rosa where he
had plaved high school football.
Ke spent hi* first days in the
freshman ranks a* a member of
the *‘B-' squad, the freshmen* sec
ond squad, not team. But he work
ed hi* way up, and hi* sophomore
year found him a* a varsity sub
stitute centrr capable of making
bis letter. He was "head man'' in
a group of three C.fdet pivot men
during the 1931 season. This year
he seem.s to be "head man” for
the mythical all-con.'crence plvo'
position. Willis is *2 years old. »
feet tall and neigh* 178 pounds.”

Dop* Favors Texas But It
Doesn't Mean Anything,
So They Say
AUSTIN, Nov. 24.—UT— The
embattled Farmers of Texas A. A
M. and the atalwarti of the Uni
versity of Texas were ready for
their Annual Thanksgiving Day
• gridiron battle—« game that in
j the past has made football history
snd added much to the grid lore
of the Southwest conference.
An estimated 30.000 persons were
expected to witness the encounter.
The weather forecast was “clear
and cold.’* A heavy rain, which
started yesterday afternoon, had
dwindled to an occasional flurry
Uat night. The rain slackened
after a sharp decline in tempera
ture.
Today's game marked the 38th
time the Farmers and the Long
horns have met on the grid.ron
field of battle. Texas sought re
venge for the 7-6 defeat suffered
in the last Turkey day tilt, whLe
i he Aggies sought balm for some
of the gridiron wounds that hav»*
fallen to their lot in the curren
campaign.
Is Out
Both teams mere handicapped
bt injuries. Texes was without the.
aid of it* regular quarterback
: Hank Clemis, while several of the
Aggie players mere not In the
best of condition.
A win for Texas would give
Texas a chance for a tie wVn
' Texas Christian University for the
j conference crown The tie moulo
ensue if T.C.U. was defeated by
Southern Methodist University
Saturday.
A win for the Aggies would make
the season moderately successful,
since A & M. supporters mould
rather see the Aggies topple Text*
than moat anything else.
Texas ruled a slight favorite,
by virtue of its record. Critics
j however, mere inclined to discount
; the dope and mere prepared for
' almost anything to happen. Thev
mere not unmindful of the trad.*
lion that the underdog as a gen
et al rule, ha* been returned the
winner in this colorful engage
ment.
The Longhorns relied for vic
tory on the offensive ability of it*
back field and pinned its hope*
partirularlv to the elusiveness of
Hilliard, the blocking and pass
j catching ability of Stafford and
! the passing and plunging of Koy.

I tnbuted much to the Longhorn

mere nominated to carry the brunt
of the A. and M offensive.
Spectators anticipated with in
terest the duel between Koy ana
Spencer, opposing fullbacks Koy
has been hailed as the greatest
Texas fullback in years while the
A. Si M fans believe Spencer is
one of the be*t line plungers ever
I to take the field.
The two lines were regarded as
being about even in ability.
The A 4 M squad arrived early

ball vs. turkey conflict by starting
their game at 11 a. m.
Both were outstanding among the
nation's teams and the winner was
sure to get some serious considera
tion In choosing the eastern team
for the New Year s day game at the
Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Calif.
Sharing interest with Brown and
Colgate in the east were the his
toric Pennsylvania-Cornell rivalry
and the younger but still interesting
clash between New York Univer
sity and Carnegie Tech.
Nebraska, favored to continue the
record which brought it the Big Six
championship, held the center of the
mid-western picture with ns an
nual struggle with Missouri, while
Detroit* Titans engaged in an in
tersectional struggle with Oregon
State.
Southern California, recognized
national champion of 1931 and the
probable western selection for the
Rose Bowl classic, squared off
against Washington m the big game
on the Pacific Coast. The Trojans
were expected to win. The Univer
sity of California at Lot Angeles
offered an attraction of only slight

In the sou ill. where fewer Thanks

Better Than Soda
For Stomach Agony
Certainly reputed trials htva
shown you that soda can not be
counted on to end your stomach
agony. And magnesia is no better.
If you really want to get rid of
stomach distress, forget these so
called alkaline digestants and Just
take a tablespoonful of artificial
stomach Juice, or mentha pepsin,
with your meals. The difference is
magical. No gas. No pain. No bloat
ing. No unpleasant symptoms at
any kind.
You can absolutely count on men
tha pepsin. Money back, says Mc
Kays Pharmacy, any time It lets
you down.—Adv.
