    Strong Arkansas Tear, Licks Texas Christian FORT WORTH, Tex, Oct. S. R-A strong south wind and a rugged Arkansas team licked Texas Christian 34–⁠14 today in a Southwest conference football game featured by long runs and sensational passes. Four times the superbly conditoned Razorbacks, whose line gave the Horned Frogs a rough whipping, took short Christian punts and rolled to touchdoWns. Three times it was the strong south wind that ruined the TCU kicking. Another time it was the charging Razorback line.
