...That neither of these feats was a fluke was later demonstrated. Two other 60-yard processions were staged, and the most outstanding break capitalization was on the last touchdown. Torh Macdonald intercepted a pass on the 47-yard stripe and before he had taken two steps a phalanx of Harvard blockers had formed.

Masterpieces at the Carnegie show in abstract or other methods of painting were conspicuously rare. Second prize ($600) was awarded for Woman Near a Table, a semi-nude against a clever perspective, done in sombre blues and browns by Italian Felice Casorati.

In fact, with its post-Civil War collection of desperate Southern aristocrats, filibusterers and assorted bad men, their plots and generally seditious hell-raising, Texas looked like just the sort of a place for another rebellion to cut loose. Against this hot-blooded, nearly forgotten background, Texas-born U. S. Marine Major John W.
