f to the plate in the two games. He accepted 6 putouts and one assist withj'out an error. Homer’s voice can be heard at all times and there is not a man on the club with more fire. At the box we need not worry this season. The team boasts of a brace of first class recievers in Lack ey and Harris. Both are smart and hustling all the time. Tom Mills held the Buffs for seven innings and allowed only one run and six hits. Tom looks like he might be a winner this year if nothing goes wrong with his arm, these champion conference clubs will have to step. AGGIES WIN S. P. GAME ON The Saturday game was a drab and slow game. The Aggies had no trouble in handing the Railroad men a 13-1 beating and getting about 17 hits. Pete Wendt started the af fray for the Aggies and this left hander was replaced by Rechenberg because the opposition did not seem -¥■ * *■ -¥• * * -¥■ * -¥■ -¥■ •* * -¥■ -¥■ -¥• * -¥■ -¥■ * * *- -¥■ *■ At * Jf -¥■ At Jf Jf Jf At Jf Jf At At Jf Jf At Jf Jf Jf Jf Jf Af Af Jf Af Af Af Af Af Af Af Af Af Af Af Af Af Af Af Af Af Af Af Af Af At Af Af Af At Jf Af Af Af Af Af Jf At Af Af Af Af Af Af Af Af Af Af Af Af At Jf Jf Jf k ’ t EASTER MORNING You’ll surely want to be smartly dressed.

Perhaps that smart suit over there came from our store. Why not come in this week and let us dress you correctly for Easter morning—remember next Sun day is the day.

They did less against Eritz, ' and Eddie Gorman went on the mound and in a desperate attempt to make them take at least one score home, Eddie walked a run in. Evidently another player thought he was going to continue to be nice and started on in. Harris tossed the ball to Weston and it was the ’Aggies time for hitting practice again. Three former Aggies were on the S. P. team, Wyman and Dittmann of last year’s club and Broesche who was a student here a couple years ago. Wyman began like a house on fire, striking two men out the first inning, but the blaze was a small one and in the second and third innings, 8 hits and 7 runs sent the former Aggie twiler scurring to left field to give the second victim a chance. He was even worse, lasting only one inning and giving 4 runs and 2 hits. Brooks Conover proved that he is in splendid shape and will make a strong bid for all-conference honors. He made hard ones look easy and robbed several Buffs of extra base blows. In ten trips to the plate in the two games he accounted for three hits and two runs. Friday and Saturday the Aggies take on the Rice Owls in the first conference games and it looks as though the Aggies should win both these affairs. At least the Aggies are confident and are hustling the harder to brush up the rough places that showed up the past two games. INTRAM.URALS (Continued from Page 6) With the lengthening of the even ings and the sound of cracking bats coming from Kyle Field, the base ball bug is getting under the skin and just has to emerge and show its spirit. The intramural department will not be able to conduct hard ball leagues because there are no avail able fields to play on and the time to play a game would be too long to play between classes and retreat. Playground ball will be held as us ual, but on account of the interest taken last year and the great num- “Good Smoke! 53 Bays Hubby “0. K.” with Wife Brooklyn, N. Y. Larus & Bro.

I have been a user of it for the last eight years and find it’s the only tobacco for a real good smoke. For the last five or six months I have been trying several other kinds but I find Edgeworth is the only tobacco for me. If I am smoking any other brand my wife will tell me, as she likes the smell of only Edgeworth. When I’m smoking others she opens all windows and doors. The reason for writing this letter is that I had a card party last night, and most all of the party asked me what kind of tobacco I used. So I told them Edgeworth.

Each organiza tion that wishes may have two teams, a class A team and a class B team. Men may be taken from the class B team, but once they leave that team they will not be allowed ton play on the class B team. Two balls and two bats will be given each company next Saturday, as well as a set of horseshoes. This arrangement will make it pos sible for about three hundred more men to compete in indoor baseball. The evenings are long and this sport will at least provide some kind of recreation. A set of horseshoes are being giv en eah organization, and now those wishing will have a chance to prac tice more. Last year only one set was given each battalion. Last year 403 individuals partici pated for the championship of the college in playground ball and Troop A won the championship from Troop D in a hotly argued contest; some playing was done. 190 men indulged in the ancient and manly art of horseshoe pitching. Many more are expected to participate this year on account of the two classes of lea gues. count five for first, three for second, and two for third. The trophies will be awarded at Kyle Field as soon as the event is finished. Last year two Houston schools captured the honors here. Jeff Davis high school won the relay carnival and the San Jacinto high school took the track and field trophy home. Thirty schools entered the meet last year and over 250 contestants took part in the meet, and Coach Ander son expects many more teams to en ter and the participation raised be cause of the new arrangement. Entry blanks have already been sent out by the Athletic Department and if any of the students know of a coach that would like to enter a team it would be appreciated if he would have him write Coach An derson and obtain the necessary in formation. April 24 has been set as the day that all entries must be in the hands of the officials. Let’s help make this the biggest Carnival ever staged at A. and M.; it will bring many potential track men here and in the men that compete will be many football players and other ath letes that can be used very well on our teams. HI-SCHOOL RELAY (Continued from Page 6) events in the dashes, middle dis tances, distances, hurdles, and all the field events. Each event will count toward deciding the champion of the meet.
