FROSHWIN
FROM ALLEN
First Game of Season.
Unleashing their willows to pound
out a total of thirteen safe blows,
! the Aggie Freshmen trounced the
j Allen Academy ball tossers in a
one-sided game Thursday afternoon,
12-5.
After getting off to a slow start,
being unable to get Lewis for the
first four cantos, the Fish began
their bombarding activities in the
fifth inning to rout the Allen club.
Fanklinr started the fireworks with
a long four base clout nto left field,
and his mates fell in line raining
extra base hits all over the lot.
Crozier smacked a homer over the
left field fence in the eighth frame,
it being the longest hit of the game.
He also slashed out a two base fly.
“Sweetie” Davis, sorrel-topped key
stone sacker, hit the apple well, man-
agin for three two-base hits. Xelt-
man got a pair of singles and a two
base hit.
Wallace hurled invincible ball, hav
ing the Academy boys eating out of
his paw until the late stages of the
game when he loosened up with a
big lead to fall back on. His curve
| ball was breaking nicely and he look-
; ed like sure stuff for the club this
season, although Thursday’s tilt was
his initial game of the year.
What looked like a rough, green
club at the beginning of the season,
is fast developing into a smooth
aggregation, and it looks as if Coach
i Hig will turn out some very good
i varsity material. His infield will
| match up with the best of the college
freshmen teams. With Keith on
third, Corpenter holding down short,
Davis cavorting around second and
either Jones or Stafford on first,
the infield is well nigh perfect. First
base seems to be the weak spot.
Veltman and Crozier have been
looking mighty good in the gardens,
while Summers and Coleman have
also been turning in some nice out
field work.
On May 17 and 18, Coach Hig
will take his charges to Brenham
for a two-game series with Siki
Sikes Blinn College outfit. It is ru
mored that Sikes has a neat club,
and the series should be a dinger.
Although no definite plans have
been made as yet, it is probable that
the Fish will make a four-day trip
during the R. Y. holidays to Mc
Kinney. The high school there has
what they think is a state champion
ship club, and they are anxious to
book a series with the Aggie Fish.

You may read, and you may study
You may cram for years at a time;
But (you {have not accomplished a

If you cannot use your own mind.
You may go through schools and col

And get your degree, if you are
not a quitter,
But your goal is still far from you
If you cannot weigh and consider.

The Supreme Threshing Test
TT IS GENERALLY admitted that no
B work tests a threshing machine so
severely as the threshing of rice.
Rice is grown on flooded ground. It is
usually saturated with moisture at cutting
time. Often the bundles are set up in water
two to three inches deep. Sometimes the
crop has to be hauled to the thresher on
mud boats.
Even though the heads dry out to some
extent, there are still tough, wet straw and
muddy butts to contend with in threshing.
Never an easy crop to thresh, rice puts a
machine to the supreme test when con
ditions are at all bad.
Therefore it is significant that in the
territories where the worst conditions
obtain, the Case rice thresher is the out
standing favorite. Approximately three-
fourths of the rice raised in Arkansas is
threshed with Case machines.
J. H. Beck, of Stuttgart, whose outfit is
shown above, is one of many successful
Arkansas rice growers who testify to the
excellent performance of Case threshers
under difficult conditions.
