er th^t will pfobably mark him as
a serioiul contender for fullback
honors oa thr mythical All-Con
ference team. The brilliant running
of Lhjmiitfue ! however, furnished
the tihlla of t^he game. Pete Hew
itt and Dab Williams made consid
erably gains in| off tackle plays and
end runs, and (although few passes
were attempted, Ray Murray com
pleted one that was good for about
SO yirds. Murray also played a
good defensive game, and Henry
Graves and kfluggins Fowler kept
the Wild Hogg guessing with long
runs and timely punts.
Thy outstanding players for the to
Javelinas were in the backfield and
at left end, although Chesty Allen,
200-pound A1UT.I.A A center last
year,] gave the Aggies plenty of
trouble in the middle of the line.
John Mark Digon, left end, playing
his fihit i-cllegje football game, die.
hit part as a pass snatcher when
he completed two passes in the Iasi
period of the T*me for s total ol
73-yards. Dicld Kercheville, All

played a good defensive game for
the Jgvelinas \fhile Speer, A and I
halfback, thredr the passes that
brought about i the most serious
scorinpr threat of the South Texans.
Harbip and .Cox, half-back and

We have only a fighting chance
win Saturday against T.C.U..
and certainly the least chance since
I have been coach at A and M."
This is what Coach Matty Bell
thinks of the game this week-end
against the Horned Frogs on Kyle
Field. Thi Purple and White will
have the same team that has de
feated the Farmers on two pre
vious occasions, still the Aggies
vill go into the game trying to
win their first conference tilt of
the season*' and to keep the Horn
:*d Frogs from making a record of
three victories on Kyle Field. No
earn has won more than two games
at < ollege Station although the
Frogs have tied the Farmers once
as well as won two victories
It teok the Rice Owl* eleven
years to win a game over the Sou
thern Methodist Mustangs since
their last in 1921, but they did it
in a decisive manner when the feat
finally was accomplished last week
It has been only aeven years since
the Aggies defeated the Frogs, and
at present the Farmers stand less
chance of heating them this year
than any year previously unless the
dope bucket is overturned.

With “fish” football well under
way and the squad rapidly round
ing into shape* vigilant eyes are
scanning the ranks of freshmen
gridsters in search of possible
varsity material for next year.
Although this freshman squad is !
one of the largest in recent years,
the ‘dopesters’* are rather gloomy
as to its possibilities as they say
it does not come up to par when
compared with the freshmen teams
of 1931' and 1932. Line material
is' bsing given the most attention
as this is the point which is the
weakest in the varsity machine
according to the coaches.
' In spite of the dope however,
real premise is being shown by
some of the freshmen, and it is
1 altogether possible that this team
will^ prove itself to be a real asset
1 to the vfcrsity next year.' Some of
the leading candidates for position*
on this team include the following: 1
Centers—Ben Cullen, San An
