en returning lettennen on the hard
woods. They make up the team
that won the Southwest Confer
ence championship last year with
the exception of one player. Only
Levi Craddock, forward and polish
ed “hole” performer, finished his
eligibility among the lettermen.
With eight wins under their belts
and a weakened Texas team yet
to play the Owls will be hard to
stop and will require all of the skill,
and cunning commanded by the
Aggie quintet to curb them.
Cotton Bowl—
(Continued from Page 3)
the 15 yard line came the second
touchdown run over by Blumen-
stock.
Henke Blocks Kick
The game once more hung on the
educated toe and the tall Aggie
line. Henke went high to interfere
with the ball. Down it came close
to the cross bar on the field side.
A sigh of relief came from the
stands as the Aggies still held the
lead.
The Rams marked up 13 first
downs to the Aggies 8. They gain
ed 118 yards to A. & M.’s 52, but
the cadets accounted for 101 via
the air route while the Fordham
eleven gained only 62. Aggie punts
averaged 32.9 yards and the Rams
averaged 30.4. Fordham ran back
all kicks for a total of 55 yards
while the Aggie returned 73 yards.
Hard Fought Contest
The game was a hard fought
contest. Elbows flew wide and
tackles came hard. If ever the
revolution narrowed down to a foot
ball game, this was the game.
John Kimbrough played his
same great ball and closed his A.
& M. career with a good show for
the home state people.
Jim Thomason blocked the same
and led the way for many of the
Aggie runs. Marion Pugh passed
the skin around in great fashion as
did Marland Jeffrey. Bill Conatser,
Derace Moser and Earl Smith all
added their valuable bits to the
win.
On the line Chipp Routt and
Charlie Henke played the best
games of their final year. Marsh
all Robnett and Ernie Pannell play
ed hard ball but left the game with
slight injuries in the last quarter.
Odell Herman and Tommie Vaughn
called good defensive signals
though the Rams had never been
scouted. On the ends Bill Hende-
son, Jim Sterling, Boots Simmons,
and Bill Buchanan stood up well.
A record that will top that of the
great fighting Aggies will be a
long time in coming. The ’39 and
’40 Aggies go down in the books
as the team of all time from the
Southwest Conference.

1925 to 1927 he was county agent
of Galveston county. In 1927 he
was appointed poultry husbandman
for the Texas A. & M. College
Extension Service, a position which
he held until 1934 when he became
administrative officer of the AAA’s
com-hog program in Texas.
With the reorganization of the
AAA in 1936, Holmgreen was nam
ed administrative assistant to the
director of the Extension Service
and had charge of the AAA pro
gram when that agency was sep
arated from the Extension Service.
Vance also studied at Texas A.
& M., taking post graduate work
in 1929. Previously he had attend
ed Baylor University and graduat

College. Throughout his school ca
reer, however, he farmed and
taught school in Wise county.
From 1929 to 1933 he was county
agent in Madison county and from
1933 to 1935 in Young county. In
1935 he was appointed Extension
Service agent for district 3, a posi
tion he held until he resigned in
1939 to become assistant adminis

Engineering
Graduates Sought
By Naval Reserve
The United States Navy has re
cently instituted a program to
bring college engineering students
into its commissioned personell.
Because of the great expansion of
the navy at the time, a large
demand exists for trained grad
uate engineers as officers of the
navy.
Many advanced naval engin
eering courses require as a pre
requisite graduation from an en
gineering college. The navy is mak
ing a special effort at this time to
urge engineering graduates to take
advanced courses in marine en
gineering and naval architecture.
All students completing this work
are eligible for appointment as
commissioned officers in the Navy.
Men with training in Diesel, Radio,
Aeronautical or Aerological eng
ineering are also being accepted as
officers.
All A. & M. engineering students
are being encouraged to apply for
Naval Reserve Commissions upon
graduation. Captain Randall Jacobs
in a letter to the college says that
“Graduates in all branches of en
gineering are being considered
prime material for commissions.”
All students interested in the Navy
should write to the Navy Depart
ment, Bureau of Navigation, Wash
ington, D.C., for further infor
mation.
Vanity Fair,

Deadlines Changed
The deadline for turning in all

G Infantry, Room 101 Dormitory
5, on or before January 20th.
With the making of all freshmen

The senior, junior, and sophomore
class section pictures have been

Baggett is in a cheerful humor,
