JoJo White, varsity letter-man
end, underwent an operation for
a ruptured intestine following the
S. M. U. game, but is reported
making splendid progress is re-
covery. He will be out for the rest
of the season, making the reserve
end situation less strong than it
has previously been this season.
However, by using little Herb
Smith at either end, and with Britt,
Bill Duncan and Jack Kimbrough
in shape the Cadets should not
suffer.
According to an announcement
by Dean E. J. Kyle, chairman of
the Aggie Athletic Committee, the
Cadets will play the U. S. Military
Academy at West Point in 1943.
Negotiations under way for sev-
eral months were completed by
Dean Kyle on his recent try to the
East. It will be the first meeting
of the Nation’s two outstanding
military institutions.
T. F. “Puny” Wilson, 24, still
rated as one of the Southwest’s
all-time ends, is getting away to a
fine start in his first year as head
football coach at Sam Houston
State Teachers College, Huntsville.
He has his team up in the running
and an upset victory over the
North Texas Teachers brought
much credit to his new regime. Al-
ready one of the leading coaches
in the same conference is Bob Ber-
ry at the East Texas Teachers Col- |:
lege, Commerce, whose team this
year seems headed for another
title.
Basketball squads at conference
schools started work on Nov. 1.
Baylor, Arkansas and Texas are
pre-season favorites, with the dope
favoring the Baylor Bears. Last
winter Baylor had the greatest
freshman team in the history of
the conference, good enough many
claimed to have won the conference
itself. Those boys are all on hand
at Waco, together with some nice
varsity hold-overs. It looks like a
Baylor year, although both Arkan-
sas and Texas are coming up with
strong teams. Hub McQuillan’s Ag-
gies are not doped to go very far
against the kind of competition
they will face this year.
Dick Todd’s touchdown dash of
60 yards at Dallas against S. M. U.
was one of the finest bits of foot-
ball technique and sheer brilliance
ever seen on a Southwestern grid-
iron. Given little blocking on the
play and with at least a half dozen
Mustangs having their hands on
him during his run, he nevertheless
weaved his way until he broke into
the clear about the 20 yard line.
With a wave of his mates shielding
him from there on he could have
crawled the last 20 yards.
Warren “Rip” Collins, ’17, now
a member of the State Ranger force
and for many years a Big League
baseball pitcher, is still rated as
the greatest punter in the history
of the Southwest. His son is this
year a member of the strong Aus-
tin High School team and that
team’s punter. If the youngster can
come within fifteen yards of his
father’s punting he'll be a star in
the kicking department.
The best story of the football
season came out of the Arkansas
game in the fourth quarter. With
Big John Kimbrough tearing the
Arkansas line to shreds and strew-
ing would-be tacklers in his way,
Bill Minnock, Aggie guard, came
out of the huddle and murmured
to his Arkansas opponent across
the line, “Big John is coming
through here this time and per-
sonally I am getting out of his
way—you can do whatever you
want.” “Thanks, Buddy,” replied
the Razorback “I am getting out
of his way, too, I ain’t tackling no
horse.”
More about the Kimbrough fam-
ily. They come from Haskell, Texas,
where the father, now deceased,
was widely known as a physician.
The oldest brother, Frank, is very
successfully coaching at Hardin-
Simmons. Bill Kimbrough, 35, who
also lettered in football at A. & M.,
graduated in 1935 and is now
county agent at Sierra Blanca, Tex-
as. Dr. Ernest M. Kimbrough, ’32,
who is following in the footsteps
of his father, is practicing medi-
cine at Haskell, took his degree at
A. & M. in 1932, before attending
