The Maily fan.letn Vol. VII College Station, Texas, Wednesday, March 19, 1924. No. 139 DiANOND OPENING ON KYLE FIELD FRIDAY Waco Indians Will Come for Pair of Games; House Cuts Squad to 21 Men. The first test of Aggie baseball strength will be permitted Friday and Saturday afternoon when {he Waco League Club Indians come to Kyle Field for a pair of games with Coach H. H. House’s Aggies. In cutting his squad following the week of prac- tice which concluded last Saturdav Coach House has definitely set hi~ judgement upon the men best fitted to carry out Farmer diamcnd hop-s this spring. He has left 21 men in uniform and has stated that he will not make another cut this season bu! will maintain that squad throughout the playing period. Examining the list which he has re tained it appears that he has found a couple of men for each position and for the pitching staff has held a re- serve of four men to support “King” Gill of Dallas and H. L. Rogers of Mart. These four are T. Kishi of Terry, L. H. Daniel of Corsicana. J. A. Graves of East Andover New Hampshire, and M. R. Jennings of | Martindale. To R. H. Crawford of Chicota who has been held over for the second base position may fall some of the responsibility of the pitching work. Gill is right hander and Rogers is a southpaw. There is an assort- ment of left and right hand slingers in the others. From the placings that House has made the past faw days in practice | games it appears that a likely linenp | for the Friday game would include “Jack” Forgason of San Antonio and | captain of the team behind the bug, Gill and Rogers in the box, J. D. Johnson of Kingsville at First base C. L. Craig of Brockston at second base, S. P. Chapman of Hutchins at third W. N. Montgomery of Por: Arthur at Shortstop, Jack Williams of San Antonio in left field, S. M. Kyle of Pecos in right field and A. M. | Puckett of San Antonio in center | field. But if this should be the be | ginning lineup of the season there | would probably be some shifts be- fore Coach House finally decided that | he had the best combination.

Dr. Thacker’s text was taken from Psalm 126:6, “He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, AS ASSISTANT 00 ACH shall doubtless come again with re- wd ! joicing, bringing his sheaves with "him.” He began his discourse by | saying that when a person wants per- ' fect assurance about salvation, or a- bout perseverance in the Christian life, or about success in working for Christ they have to rely not upon how they think or feel about these matters but upon what the word of God says on the subject. The speaker outlined three condi- tions of success. The first condition was that the candidate for success must bear the precious seed. Jesus caid that the world was the field and that the Gospel was the seed. The person who would succeed in working for Christ and winning souls to Him must carry the Gospel message to the world. He showed the importance of conviction and belief in the person tearing the message because of the fact that God has inseparably con- nected doctrine and duty and also creed and practice. There must be a positive message carried before suc- cess can be possible. In order to hear the precious seed Christians must believe in, practice, and proclaim the unsearchable riches of the grace of God.

He left in the summer before the be- ginning of the 1921 football season to take up the management of his in Cham- paign, Illinois. Last year he found time from his business enterprizes to act as assistant coach at the Univer- sity of Illinois. Before coming to the A. & M.
