Eric Miller
Nealon Speaks At
QB Club Meeting
“In a way Texas A&M has an
1 advantage in being remotely lo
cated,” stated Clark Nealon, sports
editor of the Houston Post, to the
QB Club at their regular meeting
last night.
Nealon explained that A&M by
not being located near a large city,
is not likely to attract gamblers
and bribers.
“Some may call me prejudiced,
but I honestly believe that the
Southwestern conference is supe
rior to all other conferences in the
nation, both in playing material
and coaches.” Nealon mentioned
as his reasons for this opinion are:
the potential football players gen
erally come directly to the South
western colleges and not via the
prep school route; and at the prep
schools, it is easy for the students
to get warped ideas about their
studies and football in general.”
When asked about the TCU |
game, Nealon picked A&M to win
21-13. Movies of last week’s Trin-
ity-A&M clash were viewed at the
meeting and Ray Graves gave a
humorous commentary on the film
as it was unreeled.
For winning first in Lie weekly
QB contest, Theodore Pfrimmer
was presented two tickets to the
TCU-A&M game and J. D. Hinton
received two cartons of Chester
fields for second.
Next week’s speaker will be Jack
Dillard, secretary of the Baylor
Ex-Student Association.
Yards Gained I
Paces Nation
“Mr. Offense” is the new name
! for Johnny Bright, the great Drake
tailback who is working on his
fourth mile.
The 200-pound Negro back, the
all-time record ground gainer in
college history, is pacing the na
tion’s major school in total yard
age, rushing, and scoring, accord
ing to figures released by the na
tional collegiate athletic bureau to
day.
TCU Works Behind
Closed Field Gales
. Coach Dutch Meyer’s Frogs
worked out behind closed gates
yesterday in preparation for their
coming conference clash with the
unbeaten Aggies.
The Frogs continued to concen
trate largely on defense. Meyer
still has the problem of stopping
up his ragged defensive wall that
allowed 1950 opponents more than
250 yards per game.
•
be ready for steady action against
the Cadets.
Ray McKnow, sophomore, contin
ued to work in the tailback slot to
day, however, with Frank Meda-
nich and Dan Hallmark working
some at halfback and Bobby Jack
Floyd at fullback.
Medanich is one of the team’s
fastest players but has been han
dicapped previous seasons by leg
injuries. This is his last year and
he has already seen lots of action.
Bill Ballard, sophomore back
from Wylie, will start as defen
sive right halfback Saturday
when Texas A&M plays Texas
Christian in Fort Worth.
Coach Ray George said Bal
lard will replace Augie Saxe who
broke his arm in the Trinity
game Saturday.
Most of this afternoon was
spent in setting up defenses
against TCU’s wing and spread
formations. Emphasis was plac
ed on fundamentals as linemen
worked on offense.
•
TCU’s two star tailbacks were
limping somewhat, Mai Fowler
from his knee injury and Gil Bar
tosh from his sprained ankle.
Bartosh was running more free
ly than Fowler, however, and might
McKnow, the new addition to
the Frog backfield, has been a de
fense specialty up to this time, but
now is getting his chance in the
ball carrying department.
TCU favors the “two-platoon
system” and are supplied with the
necessary manpower to employ it
effectively.
The team will also operate from
two positions. One being the na
tionally famous “Meyer Spread,”
the other being a modified double
wing.
The Horned Frogs will entertain
the Aggies with a large team,
with a line averaging 200 pounds
and the backs around 180.
This Conference clash, the first
for the Aggies is expected to be a
rough and tumble classic and one
of the top games in the south.
—Beat TCU—
A constant menace to any pass defense, Miller will probably start
the game against the TCU Frogs Saturday afternoon. This 201
pound sophomore offered the first sign of his capabilities by mak
ing the second touchdown for the Aggies in their opener against
UCLA.

Th*n you certainly should be
smoking PHILIP MORRIS!
THIS TIST TELLS YOU WHY:
Take a PHILIP MORRIS and any other
cigarette. Light up either one first.
Take a puff-get a good mouthful of
smoke —and s-l-o-w-l-y let the smoke
come directly through your nose.
PROVE TO YOURSELF PHILIP MORRIS IS DEFINITELY liSS IRRITATING, DEFINITELY 1WI1DER!
1
Now, do exactly the same thing with
the other cigarette.Notice that with
PHILIP MORRIS you don’t get the
bite, sting and irritation that you
do with your own brand.
REMEMBER: The irritation you feel in your nose
is the same irritation that occurs in your throat
every time you inhale! Don’t let irritation spoil rl^
taste, the fine flavor, the rich pleasure of smoking.
For a better smoke than you’ve ever known before, ^ ^
try PHILIP MORRIS-the one cigarette
proved definitely less irritating, definitely
milder than any other leading brand.
