    TEXAS AGGiE5 JUST SMOTHER WASH. SKATERS SAN ANTONIO. Dec. T. The Texas Aggies stopped all thoughts the Washington State Cougars might have had about the Rose Bowl last Saturday by trouncing them 21–⁠0 The Aggies pierced their oppon- ent’s line with ease and their well executed pass plays were too much for the Cougars to cope with in one afternoon. It seems that Coast football teams were far from their usual standards this year and Washing ton State was just getting a taste of mediocre football, at that, as the Aggies record proves that they were far from the team that in 1889 was undisputed National Champion.
