Jack Kimbrough and Marshall
Robnett drew the two most beau

“Thomason makes this Kim
brough” was heard time and time
again from fans in the stands. It’s
true that these two work like can
non and cannoneer together but
each in his own way, and what
ways carries a lot of force.
Southern Methodist tied their
first wrong way game last Satur
day against Pitt, 7 to 7. It was
rough for the ponies and only the
passing of Mallouf and the punting
of Johnston saved them from de
feat. Johnston set a new record for
punting, lifting the ball high in the
air and far down the field from his
own 6 to the Pitt 2, 98 yards.
Texas Christian lost to North
Carolina for the upset of the con
ference intersectional tilts and Ark
ansas ran over the Baylor Bears.
Rice closed out L. S. U. to remain
unscored upon this year.
We called the Rice and the Aggie
wins, but lost out on the Baylor
and T. C. U. upsets, and tied on the
remaining. So as “Mr. Williamson”
says this gives us a .500 per cent
average.

formance this season was mostly
by relief teams whipping Mercer
49-0 and Chattanooga 53-0.
It’s in the lap of the gods now,
and we’re riding the ratings.
The Williamson choices in the
other outstanding games this week
end are: Oregon State over Wash
ington in a mighty close one: Ohio
State over Minnesota; Pitt over
Fordham, which is probably a-
gainst a lot of other prognostica
tors; Michigan over Illinois; S.M.U.
over Auburn, unless the Mustangs
slow down or the phantom backs
of the Plains Tigers get to gallop
ing again; Georgia over Columbia.
Speaking of S.M.U., just remem
ber that Fullback Preston Johnson
punted a 92-yard record last week
in the 7-7 game with Pitt.
We’ll take Texas over Arkansas,
in spite of the latter’s 13 to 7 up
set of Baylor last week.
The figures say Villanova will
take Baylor at San Antonio, Bos
ton over Cincinnati, John Carroll
over Case but it’s a toss-up, Catho
lic U. over Miami in a hard one,
Tulsa easily over St. Louis U., San
Jose over San Francisco, Michigan
State over Temple, Ole Miss over
Duquesne, Notre Dame handily
over Carnigie Tech at South Bend.
Texas Aggies over T.C.U., Rice to
make it four-in-a-row losses for
Tulane, and Southern California
over Oregon.
The San Diego Marines, only
non-collegiate team that plays a
strictly collegiate schedule, get the
nod to win over Spec Keene’s Wil-
liamette Bearcats. They’ll play at
Williamette, from which comes one
of the season’s best press-informa
tion folders.

cated he would start a lineup quite
different from the one which open

tive starting lineup this week.

Baylor Freshmen
Play Kilgore For
Season’s 1st Tilt
The Baylor Freshmen gridders
get their initial test under fire this
week when they open their 1940
football season against the Kil
gore Jr. College Rangers.
The Cubs may find the going a
little rough against the Kilgore
eleven, because the Rangers don’t
lose many ball games. The last
time these oil field boys lost a
game was in 1938, and since then
have gone through 19 tests without
meeting defeat.
Coach Jim Crow has been work
ing the frosh gridders long and
hard trying to fashion a defense
and offense to cope with the Kil
gore powerhouse, but thus far
has been handicapped by the size
and strength of his squad.
There are only 34 boys out for
the Baylor freshman team and the
Cub mentor has had a hard time
finding a good forward wall out
of the handful of gridders capable
of playing line positions. Right now
it looks like Joe Donovan and Glynn
Lake will open up at ends, Bill
Stephens and N. A. Waters in at
tackle; Jim Bean and Johnny
Lampkin filling the guard slots;
and Ace Bryan or Olan Runnels
at the center position.
The Cubs can come much closer
to matching the Kilgore boys in
the offensive end of play. Kit Kit-
trell, shifty all-state performer
from McGregor, and John Mack
Curry, hard running fullback from
Henderson, have both looked good
in the daily practice drills and
will carry most of the offensive
power. Other probable starters in
the Cub backfield are Bo Robin
son, dependable back from Dayton,
and Paul Cook, 185 pound runner
from Tulia.
Coach Crow has several out
standing backs on the freshmen
team and will get plenty of good
reserve help from Bill Dowdell of
Jackson, Terin. Ralph Tucker from
Denver, Colorado; Conrad and Wel-
fred Elliot from Galena Park, Tex
as, Albin Murski from Brenham;
and Zack Muray from Eaden, Tex-

The keys will be in about two
weeks after they are ordered.

will be Hiram Philips, a former Ag
gie, who is editor of the South

Singing Cadets
Is Nation’s Largest
By Mike Speer
The famed Singing Cadets of
A. & M. college is the largest all
male chorus in the world. Origina
ted and directed by J. J. Woolket,
instructor in the Modern Language
department, it is composed of 213
male voices, all students of A. & M.
college.
In view of the fact that A. & M.
has no music department, that it
offers no credit for music work
whatsoever, that no credit may be
obtained from participating in this
organization other than personal
enjoyment, an ususual amount of
enthusiam and interest has been
devoted to making the Singing
Cadets an outstanding success by
the student body as a whole. It has
received favorable recognition from
musical organizations and critics
throughout the state.
One of the outstanding charact
eristics of this praise-worthy or
ganization is that it does not at
tempt to sing any musical com
positions characteristic of heavy
opera. It limits itself to those im
mortal, soul-stirring, vibi’ant, heart
thrilling songs that appeal to
every type of individual. The Sing
ing Cadets are now working dili
gently on five such songs for
their first public appearance.
In this organization there are
four sections composed of 20 first
tenors; 64 second tenors; 79 bari
tones; and 50 bases. An interest
ing fact to note about the Singing
Cadets is that it is entirely pos
sible for each of the four sections
to be carrying a melody strange
from the rest, yet the melody that
reaches the ear seems only to be
one song, perfect in tune and in
harmony. The organization as a
whole practices on Monday, Tues
day and Thursday nights from 7:30

or groups practice on Monday af
ternoon from 5:00 to 5:30. The bar
itone groups practice on Tuesday
afternoon from 5:00 to 5:30. “Any
one wishing to witness one of
these practice periods is cordially
invited to do so,” Woolket said.
The Singing Cadets have receiv
ed considerable publicity for A. &
M. and a great amount of recog
nition for themselves.
The primary purpose of every
member of the Singing Cadets is
to receive as much personal enter
tainment and enjoyment as possi
ble from their efforts. It affords
them a few minutes of relaxation;
a veritable sanctuary from their
everyday problems, studies and
duties.
