Marty Rarow Starts Baseball
Season Off With Forty-five Aggies Out
With dtawn a diamond hope-*
fula atartinf practice for the
1939 baaehall aeaaon, Coach Marty
Karow ia wondering Just how hf is
roinf to ehift hie men around in
order to gHa the Aggie* a winning
combination. With only one |L|k
gotw from last year's squad the
Cadeta should be much stronger,
bat then are smreral things still
wrong with the Aggiee^
In spite of all the material that
Karow had on hand the first
of March, inexperience, the big
faalt of the IS team, still dogs
the steps of the Cadets. Another
thing is the unproven pitching staff
which includes 11 men. The Cadeta,
it is true, hare the makings sf
•ome great pitchers, bat at the
present they haven't been made.
The whole picture ia a nutshell, is
one ef hopes and desires, far at
the presit the “Ole Man of South
west baaehall," Billy Disch, has the
upper hand, and when he’s oa top

TW first regularly scheduled
Mi for Mm Aggies is the 10th
and 11th of March, against the
Grand Prise team of Houston, and
the last one will bs against the
>ys powerful Texas Longhorns
at College Station. Coach Ka-
will have the following men
to «ae against the Grand Prixers
early next month:
Catehors: C. V. Kirkpatrick, Al
vin Olbrich, Corden, and Jack Da-
M j’
Pitchers: Harry Cohen, A. T. Po-
lonovich, Ralph Uadsey. Hal Welch,
Sqm Baaa, Q. F. Miller, Droleaky,
Penden, Copley, Nugeat, and Key
tft.
Infielders: Bob Williams, Jack
Lindsey, Dave Thrift, Jaa Slicker,
Bdanar, Booker, Harvey Stone.
Chubby Nolen, Rothe, Call
Parker, Simms, Pugh, McCullough,
Handley, flerri.'on, Hancock, Owen,
and Jttffry.
Outfielders: Dave Alsobrook,
Bailey Timmerman, Jack Cooper,
Bruce Moreland, Rice, Tommie
Tinker, Karcher, E. F. Boyle, C. J.
Keeae, J. D. Scroggins, and Salman.
Out of this array of material
there seem to be a few staadouts
flv most of ths positions open,
however non# of them have been
definitely filled yet. Kirkpatrick,
letterman from last ytar's squad,
seems to be bolding the edge for
the backstop job, Over at third
base Stone is going to bs poshed
hard for his job by Jeffry and Han
cock while Dave Thrift ia going
to give Will ism* and Pugh a real
fight at first base Williams, All-
Sou thweet first baseman, has ths
edge, but it’s bard to keep two
good men oat
At the present, Karow is count
ing mainly on Harry Cohan, A. T.
Polonovich, both saniora from last
year’s team, and Ralph Lindsey to
carry the bdrdea of the pitching
duties. All three of theee hosiers
