SPORTS
PARADE
Once Over Lightly . . . R. C.
(Beau) Bell, ’31, who has been in
the Major League for several sea-
sons at St. Louis, Detroit, and
Cleveland, is this year with Tole-
do of the Class AA American As-
sociation. The team trained in
San Antonio and old “Beau” look-
ed as fit as a fiddle. Younger
brother Woody Bell, ’38, is in the
Army. Both captained and were
star outfielders and hitters on
championship Aggie Baseball
teams their last years at A. & M.
. . .. Jake Mooty, ‘35, is still in
the majors with the Chicago Cubs
and the sporting news recently had
this to say about him, “Jake Mooty,
scheduled to be the Cub’s night
game expert, is being brought
along slowly but is feeling fine
and has had no recurrence of the
sore arm trouble that has pes-
tered him in the past.” Jake was
a star pitcher A. & M. He makes
his winter home in Fort Worth
and has been in professional base-
ball since graduation . . . Jess
Landrum, ’38, is with the Dallas
team in the Texas League. He is
listed as an outfielder but is ex-
pected to be used all around the
diamond. He has also played with
Toledo and Shreveport since his
baseball days at A. & M.. ...
Johnnie Morrow, 38, former fiery
Aggie football, basketball, and
baseball star is back in the pro
game with the New Orleans team
of the Southern Association. He
left A. & M. to pro ball for sever-
al years and later returned to
Texas to go into business and play
semi-pro ball. He went back with
New Orleans last year. . . . The
Aggie swimmers can’t overcome
the superior quantity of their
Longhorn rivals and Texas won
its 11th swimming title in a row
at the conference meet recently.
It is the third straight year that
the Aggies won the most first
places and still lost the title . . .
If the war doesn’t intervene, Dough
Rollins will have a championship
track team at A. & M. within the
next two years. This year’s fresh-
man team is a strong aggregation
of both individuals and relay teams
who can outstep the varsity... ..
That boy Collins pitching for
Texas, this year is a son of former
Aggie Star Warren “Rip” Col-
lins, ’17, still rated the greatest
punter in Southwest football his-
tory. “Rip” is sheriff of Travis
County and lives at Austin. . ...
Back to swimming, Bobby Tay-
lor, Aggie swim star, is the out-
standing tank performer in the
Southwest. In the recent confer-
ence meet he set a new conference
record in the 220-yard free-style
and also won the 100-yard free-
style and the 440-yard free-style.
. . . And a bouquet to a long list
of A. & M. men who pioneered
the swimming sport for inter-col-
legiate competition at A. & M.
For years they struggled along
without coaches, organization, or
other support. Now swimming is
creating lots of interest and excite-
ment and it is a grand inter-col-
legiate event. . Baseball
Coach Lil Dimmitt’s mouth waters
every time he takes a look a Fresh-
man baseball pitching star big
Lee Forrest. If the varsity had
Forrest to team with Charlie
Stephenson this year they might
be hard to head for conference
honors. Forrest is from Dallas’
Sunset High School.

Cadets Beat Texas
Split With Bears
In Diamond Race
As the AGGIE goes to press the
Cadets split a baseball series with
S.M.U. at Dallas, thereby dimming
sharply early season title hopes.
Another game with T.C.U. at Ft.
Worth this week will further tell
the story of where the Aggies will
land in the conference race.
Lil Dimmitt’s Aggie Baseballers
got away to a good start in the
conference winning two and drop-
ping one in their first three games.
The cadets split a pair against Bay-
lor at Waco but trounced the fav-
ored Longhorns 4-1 at College last
Friday.
With every team in the league
rated below par, the current race
promises to be a wild scramble.
Texas, as usual, is favored for the
title. For the Aggies Captain
Scoggin, catcher, and Charlie
Stephenson, pitcher, are outstand-
ing.

Dallas Club—
(Continued From Page 1)
are at war and to advise them that
we are being licked every time we
get close enough for the near-
sighted little so-and-sos of the
Rising Sun to spot us.
“If Congress can hear the voice
of Dallas amid the groans of busi-
ness and trade associations, over
the noise of labor hoodlums calling
for stoppage of work, over the
snoring of complacent sleepers—if
Congress hears the voice of Texas
and acts, America will not pass
out in her sleep.”
Pacific Failures Blamed on Strikes
Church listed the strikes in de-
fense industries and the resulting
loss of man-days. He said that
“had not these unpatriotic and
treasonable stoppages occured, the
Mikado and his armies would now
be back in Tokyo.” The strikes
denied MacArthur the fighter and
bombing planes he needed, Church
said, and brought on other failures
in the Pacific.
“I know that the laboring man
is all right,” Church said. “He is
willing to work and he loves his
country. I also realize that some
of his unwise and greedy leaders
are binding him to a collective
record which some day may at the
hands of public opinion deny him
the advantages in peace time that

‘he has gained under the present
administration.
“It amazes me to hear our com-
mander-in-chief say that you can’t
make men work when he has the
power to prevent men who won't
work from keeping men by force
from working who are willing to
do their full part to serve their
country by sweat and toil.”
People Want Radical Changes
Church said that Roosevelt and
Churchill seemed unwilling to
make as radical changes as the
people of their countries demand-
ed.
“In England the masses demand
more aggressive war,” Church
said. “In the United States the
citizenship is outpouring their
pent-up convictions and petition-
ing that the closed shop govern-
ment within the national govern-
ment of democracy be removed to
the end that all may become free
workers and willing fighters in
the common enterprise of destroy-
ing tyranny.
“Mass meetings and speeches
won’t win this war now. We want
action. We want airplanes, tanks,
guns and ships to take all these
war supplies to Bataan now, not
in 1943. Congress is not listening
to MacArthur's call for planes,
tanks, ships. They are otherwise
engaged, trying to appease labor
and other pressure groups. This is
election year and General Mac-
Arthur and his men may not be
able to cast a vote this year.
“In the face of the situation and
congressional inaction, we are
asked to exercise patience and
calmness. Are we going to keep
silent while Congress cringes and
cowers at every sound of John L.
Lewis’ growl and while members
who are paid to stay on the job
hang around cloakrooms listening
to the honeyed words of Green?
Dallas says no by this gathering
tonight.
Work or Fight Is Motto
“Work or fight must be your
motto and ours. Management and
labor, professional men and
preachers, women and girls want
to help now to win this war. Tell
us definitely what to do. Get out
in front to lead us. Get competent
assistants to speed production.
Quit trying to find jobs for defeat-
ed politicians as executives. Don’t
spend so much effort trying to
bolster our morale back home. Try
harder to shatter the morale of
the Germans and Japs.
“We want action now. We will
cheerfully pay the bills if our tax
money goes into planes, tanks,
guns and ships to take them to our
fighting forces everywhere. But
we, warn you that we won’t put up
with huge war production profits
nor with our tax money being ex-
tracted to fatten the income of
some of the labor organizers who
use Storm Trooper methods.”
