Many Runs in Second Gams
-The second game was destined, to
be a close one, but the mighty Keith
failed to show his usual form and
down went the Rice Owls in the sec
ond Conference tilt 14-9. Eleven men
faced Keith the first inning and 3
hits netted 7 runs. The track meet
started when the Aggies took ad van-
tag - e of four free rides, one error,
and three hits, one a home run by
Tom Mills with the bases loaded to
capacity. Enough' other runs were
added in the remaining innings to
allow for the two Owl rallies. Dur
ing the first five innings, only 15
men faced mills. Just two balls were
hit out of the infield, one for a sin
gle. And then in the sixth a few er
rors and miscues and two hits netted
the Owle five runs. Mills was then
relieved by Eddie Gorman. Coach

reason for Mills trip to the showers.
Conover connected with two hits
in three times to the plate and one
was a long drive to right for a home
run, scoring two men ahead of him.
Brooks accounted for three runs
himself. The Aggies completed an
other double play when Morgan hit
a fast one to Johns. Johns threw All
nock out at second to Pampell who
threw out Morgan at first to Mar
tin. The Owls trumped this double
with one of their own making, Beis-
mer to Knippel. Homer Childers was
credited with twelve pult-outs. He
got one bingle in two official trips to
the plate.
This Captain Dannie Allnock looks
like a second rate catcher in com
parison to either Lackey or Harris.
Either of the Aggie catchers showed
up far better than the Rice All-con
ference receiver. Allnock looked
poor with the stick, couldn't throw to
second, and fielded his position poor.
Carrol, hustling little short stop for
the Owls, secured his first hit in two
years of Conference baseball against
Mills in the sixth. It was only a sin
gle.
With these two clear-cut wins, the
scribes are inserting the Aggies’
name along with the Baylor Bears
as possible strong opposition for the
Longdrorns. If the Aggies pitching
staff suffers no injuries, the Long
horns will have to play their best
brand of ball when they meet the
Aggies if they expect to take the
crown again.
Waco and Notre Dame Micks are
the opposition this week.
INTRAMURALS
New Events Started
■ Equipments for playground ball
and horse shoe pitching has been is
sued and competition in these sports
will begin very soon. Playground ball
diamonds are being placed on the
drill field and all teams wishing to
practice may do so there. About
eight diamonds will be placed there
and there are about four on the
Freshman football practice field.
These leagues will start April 15.
Each organization will be allowed to
enter two teams, a class A team and
a class B team. 50 points will be al
lowed the organization for entry of
an “A” team and 25 for a “B” team.
The best men do not necessarily have
to be on the “A” team but it wL
work out much better if this plan is
followed.
Horseshoe pitching a week or so
later. The official distance between
stakes is 40 feet and the games will
be held at the same place that com
petition was held last year.
The volleyball league is progress
ing very fine, except that a few of
the organization managers are al
lowing their teams to forfeit a few
games. The intramural department
has announced that the sole respon
sibility is placed on the managers
now and that they will no longer
notify them of games, schedules are
furnished each manager and each
time he forfeits a game ten points
is deducted from the organization’s
entry points. At present Battery B
is still in the lead with only a few
points and the flag still belongs to
anyone.

Following a month of intensive
training, Coach Matty Bell closed
the 1929 Texas Aggie Grid Team’s
spring training last Thursday with
a stiff scrimmage which bore all the
earmarks of a mid-season game.
Each day about fifty one men report
ed to Coaches Bell, Bible, Bassett
and Petty and when these candidates
return next fall for practice they
will be well schooled in the Bell sys
tem. One month has been a short
time to do much with a team but
Coach Bell has been bearing down
on them and every man that has
been out has showed much improve
ment. On the last day of practice
Coach Bell said: “Many of the men
who are expected to be out next year
are out for other sports, but we have
had a very fine spring practice and
I am well pleased with the spirit that
of the men that have been out.
Coach Bell was particularly interest
ed on the fact that seventeen of his
charges were out for practice each
Aggie (•yridsters paid for spring
training. Those that were injured
were: Scovall, Moore, Golasinski and
Thompson.
The delegates to the highway con
ference received a real treat when
they watched the embryo stars in
action. A stranger would have
thought that the game was a con
ference affair from the amount of
betting and enthuasism displayed;
those old 'Aggie grads are sold on
Matty Bell now and they will broad
cast the poweress of the 1929 grid
machine. Their antics were almost
as interesting as the actions of the
future Aggie warriors. Coach Bell
allowed his charges to play more
than game and still those grads yell
ed for more.
Coach Matty Bell was in charge of
the spring practice and he was as
sisted by Coaches Bible, Bassett and
Petty. Petty worked especially with
the wingmen and those that he had
charge of showed much improve
ment.. Ewell and Hable have been
removed from the center of the line
day and that there were about ten
that missed only one day. The fol-
lowinir is a list of those that du
not miss a day: La Boa, Overton,
Hable, Zarafonetis, Filizola, Bible,
Moser, O’Dowd, Christian, Abbey,
Hill, ^Anderson, jMcCowan, Sebesta,
Guseman, Woodman and Wolfe. Go
lasinski was injured about the mid
dle of the training period, but was ’
out each day to watch practice and
at least learn Coach Bell’s methods. |
I Dansby missed one day and that was
and an endeavor is being made to
make wingmen out of them. Var-
nell has also been shifted to the end
position.
Coach Bell left for Fort Worth
Friday Ixnd will more than likely
return to Aggieland once more be
fore the fall practice there and get
acquainted with his players and as
sistants. He will be gone about one
month.
The following is a line-up of the
two squads that played in the final
