A. & M. DEFEATS U. OF T.; SCORES 4-3 AND 4-0 (Continued from Page 1.) This did not discourage the Farmers at all, and in the first half of the eighth they came hack strong. Shorty Hooker reached first, followed by Jim Kendricks and Tom Cherry. Pow T ers hit out. Then Rigney stepped up and got the hit that won the game. He knocked a long two-hagger that cleaned the bases and put A. & M. in the lead. This was the last of the scoring.

Con Lucid’s Farmers walloped the University nine last Thursday by a s'core of 4 to 0. It was a regular shut out, State getting let down with only one hit. The Aggies outplayed the Longhorns in every department of the game. Tom Cherry got one of the prettiest three-baggers ever seen, and it came when it was needed most. In the fifth inning the score was 0 to 0. Three men got on base. Then, with two men out, Tom Cherry came to the bat and got three balls and two strikes. He hit the next ball out against the fence, bringing in three funs. Skeeler pitched a perfect .game Although the ball was wet and slip pery he got seven strikeouts, and let the Longhorns down with one hit.
