TRINITY GAME
O. D. Roland General Whitaker
O. D. Roland of Union City, Tenn.,
captain of the Trinity University
Tigers, and General Whitaker of Cal-
orado, star fullback of the Tigers, will
play their fourth game against the
Texas Aggies Saturday. It will be
the third time that they have played
on Kyle Field.
Roland was named as one of the
leading players of the country at
guard last year by Spaulding’s foot
ball guide. He was selected by sev
eral for a position on the all-star
Texas Conference team.
Whitaker was named for all-state
scolastic quarterback in 1923 when he
played with Strawn high school. He
is one of the most outstanding backs
of the Texas Conference.
The Trinity Tigers of Waxahachie, 1
led by Captain O. D. Roland of Un- '
ion City, Tenn., will invade Aggieland
next Saturday to meet the Texas Ag- ^
gies in their initial battle of the sea- (
son. Coaches Holton and Wilkins of i
Trinity bring a team composed al- [
most entirely of veterans, and it is
likely that the starting line-up will
be composed of 10 letter men and one
reserve of the 1926 team. Seven of
these veterans have played on his
toric Kyle Field before, as they were
members of the team that lost to the
Aggies last year, 20 to 10, when the
Farmers rallied in the last quarter
to overcome a lead annexed by the
proteges of Coach Holton.
This score, due to the fact that it j
is one of the largest that any team
has ever made against the Farmers |
on Kyle Field, combined with the fact ^
that practically the same team with
a year more experience will play this |
week, indicates that the game is not
going to be “duck soup” by any
means and the Aggie followers will
have ample opportunity to see their
team demonstrate against competi
tion that is plenty strong.
Veterans making the trip to Aggie
land will be picked from the following 1
iettermen and reserves:
Centers: Thompson, San Antonio;
Moore, Hubbard; Burleson, Waxa
hachie; B. McCluney, Kerens.
Right guards: Kozeleki, Yorktown;
A. McCluney, Kerens.
Left guards: Capt. O. D. Roland,
Union City, Tenn.; Duncan, Kauf- '
man.
Right tackle: Hollenshead, Haynes-
