    Six Aggies Named In
Battalion All-Southwest
Hartman, Whitlow,
Simmington, Russell
And Brumley Place
By Hub Johnson
To the list of all-star teams goes
the Battalion’s today.
Six Aggies dominate the team,
while three men from Rice, one
from Baylor and one from Arkan
sas round out the eleven.
The backfield is filled with pow
er. It boasts the leading passer of
the league and the greaset back
ever to come from these parts.
Kimbrough and Brumley have all
the drive any coach would want
in his backfield. Thomason has led
the way to many touchdowns and
large gains. Pugh has passed the
Aggies on when the ground attack
failed to gain with ease. He has
called game after game without er
ror. For the punting we would prob
ably have to rely on Thomason.
Layden, Conatser, Johnston, and
Bruley were all in the class from
which to pick the fourth player.
Saturday Johnston took the back
seat, while the Rice star carried
on, even though the Ponies claimed
the game. Conatser with his punt
ing and great running pushed the
Owl gridder hard but evened up
with Layden for the second berth.
The line has on its ends one
junior and one sophomore. Sterl
ing from the Aggies has proven
his worth on defensive play as well
as on the offense while Russell of
the Bears takes over the other post.
Pannell and Hartman take the
tackle posts with records that tend
to crowd that of Joe Boyds’.
Robnett was an undisputed holder
of one of the guard posts. The
other was to be taken by Bassett of
the Owls, Henke of the Ags, Sher
rod of T.C.U., or Simmington of the
Razorbacks. Due to Simington’s
skill in place kicking and his bol
stering of the Hog’s line, he takes
the post.
Due to his skill in place kick
ing as shown especially in the Mis
sissippi game and his part in bol
stering the Hog’s line, Simington
takes the post.
Rice Institute’s Whitlow gets the
center post due to the letdown in
Nelson’s play and his transfer
to tackle for the one game. Pope
of S.M.U. and Vaughn of the Ag
gies were also considered for the
spot but failed to show up as did
the Rice line star.
The second and third teams are

Handball finalists are coming in
to the home stretch and the col
lege champions should be known
before the holidays.
In an eighth final game F Field
Artillery took another step to
ward the finals when Boyd, Pat
terson, Bailey, and Hutchens made
the ball bounce in their favor to
take the 5th Corps Headquarter
Cooper, Conway, and Davis combin
ed for 5 CHQ’s singleton.
B Signal Corps evidently doesn’t
intend to be “knocked off” in or
der to let last year’s football
champions repeat and turned back
F Engineers 6-0 to prove it. The
game was close though, with pen
etrations tied at one 40 and one
20 each. Their game with H Field
Artillery will tell whether or not
they go into the playoff.
A Engineers cashed in on a 40
yard pass to gather in six points
that matched D Cavalry’s six and
came from behind to take the game
on penetrations. D Troop set up
their counter on a blocked kick
that was recovered, recovering on
the 2 yard line. A pass, Callahan
to Ellis paid off. Both conversions
failed.
Darnell, Gous, Jackson, and Bem-
ish won a 2-0 tennis match for
A Signal Corps when they out
played the bunch from E Eng
ineers.
2-1 match ended in favor of G
Coast Artillery when Keese, Mc-
Kemie, Tillery, and Guill got hot
and took two gemes. Seigel and
Harrison cashed in for the Sigs.
Teams from Machine Gun Cav
alry and E Field outsplashed the
Headquarters Signal Corps and I
Field Artillery by scores of 2-0
and 4-0 respectively when they
took to the cool water of Downs
Natatorium in opening water polo
games.
E Infantry played heads up
football and won over 3rd Corps
Headquarters 9-6 by taking full
advantage of every opportunity.
Their nine points resulted from a
touchdown, conversion, and a safe
ty.
