11 Second Game The second meeting- of the Ags and Long-horns was more or less an un eventful affray. Tom Mills closed the season for the home club; he pitched a mighty nice game, but was not supported so well. The visitors piled up a three run lead in the first inning and held it thru the time contest to make them Southwestern Conference Champions for the seventeenth consecutive time. gs*.

TENNIS SEASON ENDS Hyland Stars For Ags Coach Thomas sent his net squad to Austin last week for the South western Conference Tennis Tourney, where they acquitted themselves cre ditably. Captain Joe Hyland, Storey, Kelly and O’Bannon made the trip, and each one played a classy game. Kelly and O’Banon went to the sec ond round, while Hyland went to the third. Joe was playing a bang-up game, but had the hard luck to draw Berkley Bell, Texas number one play er for the third round. However, Joe put up a hard battle, and forced the liSfeaiiiiiiiiiiiiiKiiMniiii Hot Weather Cold Drinks Casey’s Nuf Sed first set into extra games before he succumbed, 8-6, which is by no means a slight accomplishment, as Bell is one of the leading players of the coun try. The Texas team dominated the tour nament all the way, placing four men in the semi-finals of the singles, and two doubles teams in the finals. The big upset of the tourney came when Barnes, Texas number two man, beat Bell in the finals for the singles cham pionship. The tournament ends the season for the Aggie netters, which has been very successful. The letter men will be announced after the next meeting oi the Athletic Council, and next year’s captain will be elected shortly after ward. AGGIES HUMBLE TEXAS TECH Coach Brady Higginbotham’s Tex as Tech Matadors traveled far to taste defeat at the hands of Coach Bob Countryman’s Aggie Champion ship Hopefuls before a large crowd of East Texas Chamber of Commerce fans. This was the second time that Tech and Aggie athletes have tan gled, Coach Bible’s 1927 Champion ship beating the Tech eleven at Lub bock that year. The Matadors failed to show very much in their two games here, but put up a fighting- battle and didn’t stop till the last ball was pitched. The Aggies com mitted 14 errors, enough to lose sev eral games. Maybe they got them all out of their system and will play er rorless ball the remainder of the Conference schedule. In the first game the Tech boys jumped into the lead the first inning, but Hill had a bad inning in the sixth frame, and the Aggies collected 5 runs on 2 hits. Kasprowicz, hard luck pitcher of the Aggie club, gave up 4 runs on five hits and retired in favor of Mills who gave the Mata dors 2 hits and one run. Hill went the route for the West Texans and allowed 7 hits and 9 runs. Hodges swatted a home run for the visitors in this game. The second game was played be fore many of the Texas law makers and the Tech team had many rooters in their ( midst. Again Higginbot ham’s men started off with a run, but the Aggies collected 6 in return the next inning. The game featured a general contest among the Aggie infielders to determine the one that could make the most errors. 10 er rors were chalked up against the Ag gies, but with all this help the Mata dors could not win. Rechenberg pitched good ball for five innings allowing- but three hits, but failure of his mates to support Ivm sent him ************************** | BRYM NURSERY AND | j FLORAL CO. i A * * TELEPHONE 2G6 1 E | t 1 * F.
