the Cadets, and if mistakes are
to be made in Saturday’s thriller,
the boys from College Station prob
ably won’t make them.
The S.M.U. line was superb a-
gainst the Longhorns and will have
to maintain that pitch. The best
phase of the Mustang forward
play is to be found at end, where
two juniors, E. L. Keeton, and Gus
Tunnell, do more breaking up of
any forward defense than any other
players. Both men like to drive in
hard on plays, and Mustang sup
porters are expecting these two lads
to give the cadet blockers some
troublesome moments.
Kelly Simpson, Bob Maddox and
Alpine Poultry
Judgers Here Friday
The Alpine Poultry Judging team
will stop by College Station Fri
day afternoon for a short workout
while enroute to Kansas City where
they will represent the Texas div
ision of the Future Farmers of
America.
The team is composed of Hal
Smith, Earl Scudday and Eddie
Scudday, all of them high school
boys. These boys won out in the
statewide contest that was held
here last year from among 110 en
trants in the contest. The spon
sor of the team, Edward Lee Bailey,
will accompany the team in their
brief visit here on the campus.
The National F. F. A. Judging
Contest, which will be held at the
American Royal Livestock Pavil-
lion in Kansas City, will have en
trants from all the F. F. A. dis
tricts in the U. S. and the winner
will win nation-wide acclaim.
Bob Collins also saw service last
Saturday at the S.M.U. terminals
and each had his share in stop
ping the Texas ground attack.
If these ends come up with an
other great game, the S.M.U.-A.&
M. affair may be decided by the
aerial route, with Johnnie Clement
and Marion Pugh doing the elbow
ing.
The Aggies tried out plays on
a sloppy field yesterday, as an
all-day rain had the turf compar
able to the condition of the Aggie-
Mustang clash here last year. The
Mustangs were shaping a good de
fense for their go with the Aggies
Saturday and were concentrating
on Aggie pass plays.

WILLIAM H. MILLER — Flight Supt., American Airlines
^T"'HE ARMCHAIR above is his cockpit—but Bill Miller flies
I as many as 100 planes a day. North, south, east, and west from
New York’s LaGuardia Field (air view upper right) his radio
control-room directs the flying course of American's flagships.
Flier, navigator, engineer, traffic executive all in one—yes, flight
superintendent Bill Miller is a man with the extras —a man who
gets the smoking extras, too... in Camels.
For Camel’s costlier tobaccos and slower way of burning give you
more than mildness—they give you extra mildness and coolness
with a flavor that holds its appeal right through the last extra puff.
Camels also give you extra smoking per pack (see right).
