Last Chance To Honor Famed
Texas Aggies Tomorrow Nile
Tomorrow night in Sbisa Hall
the Aggies who in the past two
years have carried the name Tex
as A. & M. to every corner of the
nation and to many foreign lands
will be honored at the annual grid
dinner.
Many of these boys are closing
out seven and nine years of foot
ball, having played in high school,
junior college and here at A. & M.
Their praises have been sung
time and again. This will be our
last chance to pay them the honor
they so rightfully deserve.

Of Current Conference
Season Played at Home
The Texas Aggie basketball quin
tet will be going after their init
ial win in conference play Satur
day night when they tangle with
the Baylor Bears in the DeWare
Field House. This will be the first
showing of A. & M. for local fans
and the Aggie Cadet Corps for
1941.
Bringing a fast and versatile
squad to Aggieland, Baylor will
meet A. & M. closer to full strength
than ever before this season. Cap
tain Bill Dawson and Big Bill Hen
derson, Cotton Bowl participants,
are rounding into their old form and
with them hitting the loop in the
manner of which they are capable,
A. & M. should be on even ground
with the Bears.
Six lettermen grace the roster
of the Bruins and these veterans
are backed by several squadmen
of known ability. Heading the list
is Grady Vaughn 5’9” guard
weighing 165-pounds and playing
his last year. Vaughn is also cap
tain of the team along with Frank
Bryski 6’4” center who tilts the
scales at 200 pounds.
Bryski a senior is from Chicago,
Illinois. Joe Terry, Whitehouse,
S.M.U. Mustangs turned back the
Longhorns 43 to 36.
They came back from the start
of the second half to overcome the
two point lead and to slow up Cars
well and Gloss for the winning
honors.

Two of the Bears have great

Frank Bryski, both from Chicago,
Illinois, furnish the speed and at

“Hub” McQuillan
Texas, two-year letterman is the
other senior on the team and his
6’2” 195-pound frame plugs a lot
of territory in the forward posit
ion.
Center Joe Frivaldsky, forward
Dub Walters, and Guard Dwight
Parks round out the lettermen.
These three men are juniors. Pacing
along with them will be diminu
tive Jack Wilson, Baylor football
and rack sar, who sands a 5’6” and
weighs a perfecly proporioned 192-
pounds. Wilson is firey and a grea
sporsman. Because of his injury
in a Colorado tilt, Baylor suffered
a disastrous season.
A. & M. is slated to start Dun
can, Jarrett, Henderson, Dawsofa,
and Stevenson, but other players
are due to see action. They have
been working on a fast breaking
game and their speedy type of play
will set both teams up with a chance
at victory, because Baylor will
be at top with training and per
formance.
T Club Presents
Cotton Bowl Game
As Benefit Picture
The Aggie “T” Club will- hold
its annual benefit show Sunday,
with the Cotton Bowl and Rice
games being the feature attract
ions. This announcement was made
by Howard Shelton, varsity cen
ter, and president of the “T” club.
Interest will be held in both the
Cotton Bowl and the Rice fray. In
the latter game, the Aggies drubbed
the Owls 25 to 0. Another vital
interest as far as the cadets are
concerned was the record pass
snatching set by Bill Henderson.
Just seeing the “Jitterbug” going
about 3 feet off the ground should
be worth the price of admission.
The Cotton Bowl supplied the
Aggies their toughest opponent of
the season in the presence of
the Fordham Rams. This game
was missed by a number of stu
dents and should prove interesting
to those who even witnessed the
tilt.
The show will start at 1 o’clock
with the price of admission being
only 15 cents. Immediately fol
lowing these football picures, • a
free show will be held.
You cannot prevent the bird of
sorrow (from flying over your
head, but you can prevent him
from building a nest in your hair.
Let us have faith that right
is might, and in that faith let
us dare to do our duty as we under
stand it.

Playoffs in Class A Football Race
By Mike Haikin
The quarter-finals in the football

matches, the Infantry Band came
through with a 6 to 0 victory at
the expense of Hd. Signal Corps
while G Coast scored a touchdown

2nd Corps Hdq.
5th Corps Hdq.
B Cavalry
We hear that they have some so-
called athletes in B Troop. If so,
why don’t they prove it and come
out for these intramural games.
Water polo has had some close
games recorded as B Coast and
A CWS scored a 2 to 0 victory at
the expense of I Infantry and C
F.A. respectively. In the other
game D Engineers took a thriller
from D Infantry, 2 to 1.
The Chemical Warfare Service
fully dominated the tennis courts
as B and C CWS came through with
clear-cut victories. B-CWS scored
two wins, one at the expense of B
Coast, 2 to 0, and the other, a
close 2 to 1 score over A Signal
Corps. C-CWS shaded A Cavalry,
2 to 1.
Speedball saw some fast and
thrilling games as the winners lit
erally slaughtered their opponents.
In one of the feature games, F
Engineers ran all over the field to
earn a 19 to 1 victory over A Coast.
That is one of the biggest speed
ball scores in many a year. In
other games, C Coast overwhelmed
H Infantry, 10 to 3; 3rd Hdq.
blasted out a 8 to 3 victory over
F F.A.; 1st Corps Hdqs. handed
F Infantry a 12 to 7 setback; while
M Infantry won everything but
the ball in their 16 to 5 win over E
Coast. In the only close game of
the day, Hdq. Cavalry got by L
Infantry, 9 to 6.
Ping pong continued to dominate
Class B Intramurals with scores
of 3 to 2 and 4 to 1 being the only
ones recorded. In the former class,
the following games were reeled
off: C Coast over B Signal Corps,
Hq. Signal Corps shaded C Caval
ry, A Signal Corps defeated D F.A.,
and G Coast eked out a win over
3rd Hdq. F. A. In the latter class,
A CWS came through with a win
over 1st Hdq. F. A.; and H Infantry
romped to a victory over I F. A.
Wildlife Picture
Presented Friday By
Fish and Game Club
Coming to the Asesmbly Hall
screen Friday night will be an out
standing short on wildlife, soil con
servation, and forestry called “The
Heritage We Guard.” This film
wil prove to be of much interest
to the cadet audience and it is res
plendent in natural color.
The show, presented by the A.
& M. Fish and Game Club, will also
have as a feature “My Favorite
Wife”. This show is full of laughs
with such a short as “The Heritage
We Guard” on the program.
Science is resourceful; it couldn’t
pry open Pullman windows, so it
air-conditioned the train.
One thing about the School of
Experience—you can always take
a post-graduate course.
Paying cash for what one wants
is a good way to break the habit
of wanting so much.

Paralysis Fund
Begun at College
A drive to obtain funds for the
yearly infantile paralysis contrib
ution for College Station was re
cently started by Mrs. Ann V.
Smith, postmaster of College Sta
tion.
Coat lapel pins, symbolic of the
dire need for infantile paralysis
prevention in the United States,
may be obtained at present for ten
cents each at the main post of
fice at the north gate. An effort is
being made to place the pins on
sale in the various dormitories,
cafes, etc., so that those students
wishing to purchase them and
living in the new dormitories and
other places distant from the post
office will not be inconvenienced in
obtaining them.
As a rule the United States Post
Office Department does not give
its approval or sponsor drives of
this nature but this particular drive
is of such a worthy cause that it
has given its full consent and
is sending the pins to all the post
offices in the United States to be
placed on sale.
All the pins must be sold before
the President’s Ball, which is also
a means of obtaining funds for
infantile prevention, to be held on
January 30.
