Outioine of the 46th renewal of
the Tuna A. A If- Texas Univer
sity gridiron duel in Memorial
Stadum, Austin, on Thankegiriny
Day Thursday provide* the theme
for d (bates as unpredictable the
one m al remt-mbtf: I i
“R* solved, That Fire is More
Destricttve than Watek”.
Pie! ting the winner strictly on
‘‘form ", which takas into considera
tion i uch things as “past perfor-
man<s a”, “record to date* and
“strei igth of reserves’’—the Aggies
have It "in the bag*’—Maybe!
On the other hand there is that
“ole debbil" TRADITION (the caps
- are intentional) and in this depart
ment tho Steers have everything in
their [favor.
Since their firat encounter in
1894 the Steers and the Aggies have
beep providing the season’s most
colorful gridiron encounters for the
Lone! Star State, on severs! occas
ions fchoy have crammed t
into a single season
To, date the Steers from Austin
have left the cleat-tom turf victors
20 times, the Aggies having tri
phed
games deadlocked
• The Steers wen the first seven
tilts beforW they were tied in
190& at San Antonio. This tie so
enthused the Aggies that they,
came right back the saipe year and
pmrwd the Steers’ horns back to
the tune of 12-0 in Anktin
Since 1902, the Aggies have been
able only twice to journey to.Auas
.tin and come away with a victory
These came in 1909 when s aafetly
and field goal netted five points
and the Steers were unable to tally
and in 1922 when the Farmers took
to a 14-7 cleaning,
the Capitol City
k in 1922, how-
College Station
with a 6 to
r, bviu.!
the 1922-23 exchange of
victoried on visiting fields, neither
the Steers nor the Aggies have been
able to go afield on Turkey Day
and bring home the bacon, al
though the boys from Austin net
ted a ‘‘moral” victory in 1983 with
a 10-10 tie on JCyle Field.
Furthermore next Thursday, if
history repeats itself, there will be
no necessity for the ground-keeper
to mark off the goal line so far as
the Aggies are concerned, because
history has yet to record an A. A
r 1
For the benefit of those football fans who like to make a compari
son of the relative Strength of the opponents before selecting the win
ner, the Texas A. A M. College publicity staff has prepared the follow
ing dope on the Aggies and Texas longhorns who play at Austin on
Thanksgiving Day.
The comparison shows how players on both teams have per
formed against the aamt Southwest Conference teams and gives an
equal basis for the fans to pick the winner—perhaps Games other
than conference matches are not included In the following figum:
1938 Conference Record
two games
wan-ier who ever crossed the
Texas goal line for a touchdown
since the Steers moved into Memor
ial Stadium,
With this in front of them there
much wonder whether Dandy
Dick Todd ctn swivel-hip hh elu
sive physique across the barrier
or whether Big John Kimbrough,
the Haskell Hurricane, can plow
his mighty frome through that in
visible stone-wall that has so suc
cessfully withstood the touchdown
onslaughts of every Aggie who has
made the attempt.
Suffice to aay, that the Aggie
who dues cross that Texas goal
line next Thursday for a touch
down will take his place alongside
thb immortal grid heroes of all
time who have worn the Maroon
and White Who will it be. if any?
Thursday will see a capacity
audience to witness the annual grid
iron classic despite the fact thSt
both Ibams are hopeleaaly out of
the race for Southwest Conference
honor^' i
i Thebe capacity audiences have
jeurneyed to Austm and to College
Station for 13 years since both
teams entered the tUt knowing the
conference crown would go to the
winner. The Aggies trounced the
Steers for the championship in 1925
