BIG ATHLETIC
PROGRAM BILLED
Conference Race in Baseball and Track
Will Start Here This Week; Ten-
nis Also on Schedule.
A full schedule of athletics has been
arranged for this week-end in Aggie-
land. The Farmers will inaugurate
their conference baseball race on Fri-
day afternoon with the Southern
Methodist University - Mustangs and
on the following day they will com-
plete the baseball series with the
Mustangs, match the Dallas track
stars in a dual meet and in the same
half day period Aggie courtmen will
yield the racket against the Long-
horn tennis players.
Weather conditions this week have
broken up training schedules and the
_ Aggies will go to the athletic events
in about the same condition they
achieved last week.
The diamond actors showed sea-
sonal form in the game. with the
Omaha Bees here Monday, defeating
that Western League club by a 1 to
0 margin. In that game Pat Olsen
demonstrated his line of great speed,
curve and control and looks good for
_ one entire game against the Mustangs.
“Lefty” Matthews who held the Hous-
ton Buffs six innings of the first game
several days ago promises to be in
physical condition again by Friday
and any strength he lacks will prob-
ably be supplied by “King” Gill, who
supplemented Matthews in his one
game of the season.
The Saturday meet will initiate
track for the Aggies this spring.
There has been some improvement
in the prospects for field and track
honors with the progress of training
during the last two weeks. A decidedly
pessimistic view held by Coach Frank
G. Anderson earlier in the season has
been greatly improved recently. Cap-
tain “Sammy’’ Sanders finally broke
a case of mumps and has appeared
for training for the past few days.
Sanders was high point man in the
conference meet at Waco last year
and: his continued absence from the
training field was consigered critical.
“Heinie” Weir, captain of last year’s
conference champions has gradually: Genetics

long-winders have appeared in the
distance events. Reynolds and Little-

hurdles will be Frazier, big point win- |

BAYLOR TEAM DEFEATS
AGGIE TENNIS SQUAD
Fighting for every point, the Aggie
tennis team, playing its first meet of
the season, met defeat at the hands
of the Baylor squad in one of the
“fightingest” tennis meets seen in the
Southwest Saturday at Waco. For
over five hours the Aggies battled to
overcome the handicap inflicted by
their first experience on concrete
courts, but were unable to go over
the top. All the matches were excep-
tionally well contested as is shown by
the fact that most of the games went
to deuce, most of the sets went to a
tied score, and almost every match
had to go three sets for a decision.
No less than 174 games v re played.
After the match the team was the
guest: of the University at the Bay-
lor-Rice track meet. |
Next Saturday the Aggies will meet |
Texas University at College, and the !
following week-end hope to erase the |
Baylor defeat, when the Bear ten-|
nis men come to College for a return
meet.
