The Texas Aggie water polo
team met and defeated the Uni
versity of Texas team Saturday
night at Temple by a ft to S score.
It was the first game for the Ag
gies since winning the National
Championship at St Louis.
The Longhorn mermen with all
their nationally known stars in
cluding Keffar, Hoffricfca, McClam
rock, Flannagan, Crouch apd others
were not powerful enough to stave
off the last half attack of the Ag
gies.
The first half found the A. A
M. swimmers taking an early lead
with Ty Hall slipping in a fast
shot. But the Longhorn swim
mers were determined and came
back to score three goals before
the half ended..
Realixing that their laurels were
being endangered, the Aggie went
into thb second half of the fray
determined to do or die. Play was
not a minute old before Captain
Bing Armstrong put one past the
Texas goalie. Then Hensely scored,
then Ball, then Armstrong again,
and the University fellows realised
that the jig was up. The Aggies
were victors again.
Pre-game Ceremonies Included
the introduction of the individual
players and coaches of both teams
Coach Art Adamson made a brief
talk in which he explained the rules
and fouls of the game ta the spec
