FRESHMAN BASKETBALL.
(Continued from Page 8)
Smith, with three years experience
with Port Arthur; F. Broiles, another
Fort Worth boy, who has three let
ters to show for his high school ex
perience, and J. A. Cotton, one-year-
man from Abilene, compose the list
of candidates from which the guards
will be chosen.
Competition has been kept at a
high pitch since practice began in De
cember and the fact that the seven
teen men now on the freshman squad
were chosen from more than sixty,
all of whom had experience, either
high school or academy, speaks well
for their ability.
AGGIES HAVE TWO GAMES THIS
WEEK.
(Continued from Page 8)
it may turn out to be more than the
usual practice game. The Teachers
have always had a good team and
should put one out on the floor this
week that will give the Farmers plen
ty of competition and the Cadets
plenty of thrills.
Jinx says: “S. M. U. on its return
home will stop in College Station for
a game with the Aggies. As the
noisy Aggie Cadets crowd the gym
the Farmers and Ponies will mix it
one week from Monday. That also
should prove a splendid game.” And
so it should. Monday, Jan. 16, the
Ponies will be the invaders for the
second time during the college year
and our chances for victory this time
are just about the same as they were
in football, depending on the start.
Of course the dopesters have it that
S. M. U. will win, but of course dope
sters are often wrong. The Ponies
will have the slight edge on the Ag
gies, in that they have played more
conference games and had the added
experience; but this should be over
come by the contest between the Ag
gies and Teachers next Thursday and
Friday. Apparently the greatest fault
that one can find with the Aggie team
of this year is that they were a little
self-conscious and it can never be
said of any Aggie that self-consciou-
ness remained with him long!
