INTERSCHOLASTIC BASKETBALL
The Aggie Athletic Department has
been awarded the right to have the
State Interscholastic Basketball Tour
nament. Nearly every one has signed
up to get a ticket that will allow them
to see all the games for that price.
This is an exceptionally good offer
as each game will cost fifty cents if
you are without your ticket book.
There will be a book of five tickets
issued when each man pays up.
In ne> t weeks Bat will be a list of
teams that will be represented in the
tournament. The old home town may
be in there. Watch her go. Saturday
night, March 5, will be the date for
championship game.
Blonde: An obsolete word meaning
a lightheaded brunette.
Football, Volleyball, and Golf Fill up Past Conference Game Here Tonight
Weeks Card. Against Rice.
The past two weeks results in the
football games played will very nearly
point out who the winner is likely
to be. The two upsetting and near
decisive games were played by the
Cavalry and the Air Service, in which
game the Air Service turned up the
loser when a punt was fumbled and
Buchanan of the troopers, scooped up
the oval and dashed across for the
only tally of the game. The game end
ed in favor of the Cavalry, they be
ing on the long end of a 7-0 score.
Hard luck hhs assailed the Air Ser
vice in the past few games it has
played; in this game they made sev
eral first downs while the Troopers
made but one. The game between the
Cavalry and the 3rd. Battalion was
even closer than the preceding one;
Buchanan again starred for the Cav
alry when he booted a field goal for
the three-point margin by which the
Cavalry emerged the victors with a
3-0 score. With the next game the
Air service again hit their old stride
and poured it on the Composite regi
ment to the tune of 20-0. This rounds
out the season for the Air Service, a
season they think has been a success
ful one considering the loss of their
Coach Babe Watts.
If other games have been played
there have been no reports of them
turned in and consequently nothing
can be said about them. The Intra
mural golf tournament terminated
last Sunday when Fish Tom Holleron
beat his brother Bill 9 up and 8 to go
in a thirty-six hole final of the first
flight. In the second flight B. L.
Smith defeated Gordon James 4 up
and 3. Fish Allison won the third fight
v/hen he won from S. M. Boynton 6
up and 4.
The following named men turned in
their names and scores as being qual
ified to enter the tournament for the
cup to be given by the Bryan Counc
try Club: T. C. Holleron 83, A. O.
Nicholson 87, H. Bremer 89, W. K.
j Holleron 91, J. C. Landon 93, C. ^V.
Schueses 94.
There remain ,only three undefeated
] teams in the volley ball tournament:
Air Service, Upperclassmen, 1000; 1st.
(Continued on Page 7)
The T. C. U. Horned Frogs again
in the second and last meeting of the
two teams this year won by a score
of 32-31. The game was closely con-
, tested all the way and there was
^ never a difference of more than four
points between the teams the whole
game.
j Just when it seemed the Aggies
j would be victorious and with only
thirty seconds to play, Frank Cantel-
. mi, Frog Captain, and forward, threw
: a field goal from near the foul line
] that put the Frogs one point in the
j lead and gave them the victory. Can-
i telmi was high point man of the en-
] counter with fourteen points, and
played a brilliant floor game all the
way. Davis was second with eleven
points, and Sikes close behind with
ten.
i The margin of the Frog victory can
be counted to the fact that they sank
six out cf twelve free throws, while
the Aggies could sink only one out
of six.
] Between halves the Aggie tumblers
and the “Campus Kids” put on exhi
bitions. Both were very good and Mr.
Penberthy is deserving of much
i praise for his work.
The last conference game of the
season at Aggieland will be played
against Rice tonight. The final game
of the year will be at Austin Satur
day night with State as opponents.
