THE BAT T ALIGN
FALL PRACTICE
Bright Prospects Loom Up as First
Workout of Season Is Held
Under the direction of Track Coach
Frank Anderson and S. D. Snyder,
who has assisted in cross country
coaching at A. & M. for several years,
the Aggies’ cross country team got
down to actual training for the 1927
season, Sept. 19. Snyder will help
with the cross country men during
the early football training in which
Anderson is assisting.
With the return ,pf one and possibly
two of last year’s lettermen assured
and with three squad men and five
promising men from the freshman
team of last year, the outlook for a
successful season is bright.
Three meets have already been
scheduled for the 1927 season and
more are expected to be scheduled
in a few days. The Aggies will meet
the Texas Longhorns October 28 at
Austin and the Rice Owls November
11 at Houston. The other meet is the
Conference meet at Dallas November
19th.

“You don’t have to be a ‘grind’ to be smart.
The way this nifty writing stick eats up notes
is nobody's business — an’ how! Pleased

One look at these superb new Wahl Pens will tell you that it
is no longer necessary to pay more for complete pen satisfaction

They’re everything a campus favorite should be: handsome — big — and guaranteed to last.
Choose one of these big, new pens in your favorite color: Mandarin Red, Jade Green, Royal
Blue, Rosewo#d, Oxidized Silver, Coral or Ebony Black. Seven popular colors, and three
handy styles—long with roller clip, short with ring (for co-eds) or soldier clip.
Farmers out of the field.” Little is
known in Texas as to the strength of
the Tennessee team as they have not
been scouted this year and have not
put out any information to the news
papers up to this date. They have
always produced a strong team and
this year we may be assured that they
will be plenty of competition.
Looking forward to this game,
Coach Bible has cut hs team down to
36 men so as to be able to give more
attention to perfecting team play on
offensive and defensive. In all prob
ability the starting line-up will be as
follows: Sikes and Petty at ends,
Lister and Sprott at tackles, Holmes
and Figari at guard, Bartlett at cen
ter, Hunt quarter, Conover left-half,
Alsabrook or Varnell at right-half,
and Burgess full. No army is strong
er than its reserves and in this Bible
should not be weakened as he will
have a mighty team in reserve; Def-
febach and Cody ends, Cuthrell, Hol-
leron, Mosher, and Ewell tackles,
Rektorik, Richter, Rogers, and Snead
guards, Big Tom Holleron and Brown
centers, Davis and Mills left-half,
Mortellra full and Ish and Dorsey at
quarter. Wiley, veteran tackle last
year, will be in uniform but his leg
isn’t quite strong enough to risk so
valuable a man in a non-conference
game.

a fighting team and a fighting Corps
behind it things certainly look good
this season.
