ON
KYLE
FIELD
'With Hub Johnson.
It’s the University of Texas
again. On Clark Field tomorrow
afternoon Marty Karow’s g<ang
will put all their best into nine
innings of ball that will tell a lot
as to who will take the bunting
this year.
The Longhorns have fallen once
and this was in Dallas to the Mus
tangs. Then they retaliated with
two overwhelming wins over the
Ponies.
So far this year the Aggies have
had bad luck with the University.
In 57 seconds, remember, they
wen,t down to the highly inspired
Steers in football. On the cross
country route, the Texas team
came out number one. In basket
ball, the Aggies were half-and-half
but failed to scratch over the Long
horns.
Swimming time rolled around and
Adamson’s men won seven of the
ten first places but still lost by
seven points.
Last week, however, the golf
team issued their warning to the
Texas crew with a tie, 3 to 3.
Before departing for Des Moines,
Iowa, Coach Dough Rollins stated
that Pete Watkins would enter
the high jump only and leave the
hurdles to Fred Wolcott.
This allows Watkins to concen
trate on the one event.

Baseballers Face Crucial
Test Tomorrow With TCU
Tilt Will Go Far
In Deciding Results
On Conference Race
Even though inclement weather
has kept Coach Marty Karow’s Ag
gie nine inactive for the past
week, it has given them the need
ed rest they desire to prepare them
for their crucial test against the
league-leading Texas Longhorns
in Austin tomorrow afternoon. This
tilt is due to go far in telling
the outcome of the Southwest Con
ference race.
The Longhorns disposed of a for
midable foe last week when they
let loose a barrage to bury Brooks
Atchison and the S. M. U. Mus
tangs in a two game series. At
chison was the same hurler who
plastered the only defeat on the
Steers’ record.
After a bad start in which he
was pounded hard by his foes, Mel
vin Deutsch has finally regained
his old form. He has been the
star Texas hurler for the past two
years, and is expected to be in top
shape for tomorrow’s game. How
ever, should he falter again, Coach
Bibb Falk has Udell Moore ready
for relief work. Moore, whe is the
son of the famous pitching ace,
Wiley Moore, has done the major
portion of this year’s twirling, both
in relief work and nine-inning
the only other southwest threat in
the event.
-fstints.
Pete Layden, the gridster who
proved the Aggies’ Waterloo last
Thanksgiving, is expected to carry
on the heavy hitting for the Steers
while Jack Stone and Leslie Crou-
cher are slated to shine afield.
Meanwhile Coach Marty Karow
and his diamondneers are sharp
ening their weapons in preparation
for the Texas juggernaut. The Ag
gies were slightly off in their ser
ies with Rice in which they were
handed their second defeat of the
current season. However, the team
will attempt to iron out their mis-
cues and are slated to be a form
idable hurdle in the Longhorn quest
for their twenty-second conference
title.
Karow is planning to send Lefty
Bumpers, his ace twirler, to face
the potent Steers. Bumpers wilted
in his last two times out, but is
expected to get the needed rest to
be in top shape for the Texas
game. If anything goes wrong,
Roy Peden will stand by for re
lief work. His relief hurling in the
Rice game was a major factor in
the Aggies’ victory.
The conference race is shapping
up in the same state as it was last
year. Texas is the top team as in
the .previous campaign with six
wins and one loss. The Aggies
and the Baylor Bears are still
fighting it out for second place
just as they did last year. A de
feat of Texas by the Aggies will
muddle up the conference into a
three-way tie in which anything
can happen, while a Longhorn vic
tory will set them that much closer
to the title.

We Feel Bad
about Violets
T)OETS always call the violet the shrinking violet.
We feel bad about anything that shrinks — but
chiefly shirts.
So we’ve spent our life
making the shirt that doesn't
shrink, the ARROW shirt.
It’s Sanforized Shrunk, which
means fabric shrinkage less
than 1%. Its Mitoga figure fit
is superb and its collar is the
world’s finest. College men
everywhere prefer Arrows.

Anderson Takes
Golfers to Play
SMU in Dallas
Coach Frank Anderson and the
Texas Aggie golf team left the
A. & M. campus yesterday after
noon to journey to Dallas where
they will take on the highly tout
ed S.M.U. Mustangs this after
noon in one of the few exhibition
tilts remaining on the cadet sched
ule before the Southwest Confer
ence Meet comes off in Austin
May 9 and 10.
Captain Henry Hauser, Henry
Richards, Bob Wayne and Johnny
Roberts are the linksmen who made
the trip to Dallas. They form the
nucleus of the Aggie golf team
that has been more or less suc
cessful this season. Coming off
with fourth place in the Fort Worth
Exposition Meet, the golfers have
since then added Rice, Texas Tech,
and Baylor to their victory list and
tied the University of Texas.
Bright stars in the Aggie victor
ious march have been Hauser and
Richards, both of whom are well-
trained liksmen. Hauser has been
the leading Aggie golfer for the
past two years, while Richards has
been one of the leading putt and
approach men in the conference.
Warne and Roberts, the other two
golfers, have been coming along
nicely, and could well serve a threat
in the conference meet. Warne was
a squadsman last year, while this
is Roberts’ first initial appearance
on the team. He has shown fine
promise so far, and according to
Coach Anderson, should set the con
ference afire by his senior year.
Following the S.M.U. match, the
Aggies move over to Fort Worth
tomorrow afternoon to take on
the potent Texas Wesleyan team.

Drawings for Inter-League Play-Offs
In Volleyball Will Soon Be Under Way
By Bob Myers
Most all of the Volleyball league
championships have been decided
and drawings for places in the
finals are on the way. Many good
teams have reached the final play
offs and promise competition a-
plenty before the college champion
is crowned.
A Chemical Warfare beat I Field
Artillery 2-0 to cinch their league.
The two matches ended 15-7 and
15-2. Another team that came in
to the final play by winning their
league is G Coast Artillery by
virtue of a 2-0 win over D Field
Artillery. An easy 15-1 match
found the going tougher in the
second go-round and it was only
after a 16-14 score had been reach
ed that the game was settled.

Havoc With Recent
Aggie Baseball Games
This weather may be doing the
farmers a great deal of good but
it certainly has kept the Aggie
athletics at a standstill. All base
ball games in the past week have
been postponed, while only indoor
intramural activities have Been
kept going.
The Aggie Fish-Baylor Club
game was left hanging in the air
due to bad weather, while the Ag-
gie-Baylor varsity game hit the
skids for a similar reason. The
latter tilt was moved up from
Thursday to Tuesday only to see
the game washed out. Yesterday
afternoon, the Aggie Fish suffer
ed their second consecutive post
ponement in their game with the
Allen Academy Ramblers. All these
tilts will be put off indefinitely.
Avast There, Ya Lubbers;
Sailing Regatta Set May 3
“Ready about! Hard a’ lee!”
The Texas A. & M. Sailing club
is on the last leg bf the course
which will lead it straight to the
Houston Yacht club and the inter
collegiate sailing regatta on May
3.
This regatta, which is sponsored
by the Yacht club at La Port, Tex
as, promises plenty of keen com
petition for all those men who love
the tug of a sheet or the throb of
a tiller. Most of the Southwest con
ference schools have announced
their intentions of entering.
The newly organized Sailing club
has piled on all sail and is trim
ming its sheets for its two goals.
The first is to foster interest in
sailing and to obtain membership
in the Intercollegiate Yacht Rac
ing Association. The second goal
is to get more regatta, more boats,
and more members to help spread
the name of the Texas A. & M.
from coast to coast and from the
■f Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mex
ico.
You say no such thing has been
done before?
You’re right! But some of the
old salts that form the nucleus of
the club say that membership in
the I.C.Y.R.A. will enable them to
leave their wakes across more riv
ers, lakes, harbors and bays than
you can count on two hands!
One of the prime requisites for
membership in the I.C.Y.R.A. is the
training of land lubbers to be sail
ors and sailors to be sportsmen.
If you are interested in sailing—
and not afraid of getting wet—if
you are a landlubber, old salt, or
just in between, steer a course to
room 319 Academic Building tomor
row night at seven fifteen, half
way between the look out’s six and
seven bells, and find out what it
is like to be in an organization
that is sailing full and hard, not
luffing a bit.
Many swimming teams are losing
points by having their backstrok-
ers disqualified. A check-up with
coach Adamson or one of his as
sistants, on the proper kick in this
event,. might mean the difference
between the loss or a win in a
meet.
An Aggieminton demonstration
game will be held in DeWare Field
House tonight at 7:30 for the bene
fit of those who wish to become
better acquainted with the sport.
Credit for one game will be given
all men in attendance who are tak
ing intramurals for physical ed
ucation.
E Engineers, fifth place contest
ants in last year’s swim meet, is
a definite threat in the current
contest. They accumulated a total
of 35 points to the six of D In
fantry in a meet Tuesday.
Class B Handball quarter-finals
are over and four teams have ad
vanced to the semi-final stage. I
Infantry’s win over 1st Headquar
ters Field Artillery kept the spec
tators on their feet until the last
ball was played. With one match
to the credit of each team, Slover
and Eskridge, I Inf., were tied
up with Hightower and Carasco
in the final and deciding match of
the game. I Infantry came out on
top 24-22 and advanced to the
semi-finals on their 2-1 win.
Brusse, Parsons, and Pealor took
care of three ping pong matches
to win a 3-2 match for F Infantry
at the expense of Machine Gun
Cavalry. Crayton and Delameter
accounted for the loser’s wins.
Badminton Champs
Give Show at Baylor
Jack Purcell, world’s champion
badminton player and Guy Reed,
American court champion, will
headline a special badminton show
at the Baylor gym May 6.
In addition to these world fa
mous bird smashers, several top-
ranking badminton players of Ifex-
as will appear on the program.
These include Mary Honaker, State
Singles player who recently par
ticipated in the National meet at
Cleveland, and Texas Judy, lead
ing women’s doubles player from
Dallas.
Heading the list of men players
from Texas who will help out with
the show are Roy Harrison and
Harold Reddick of Dallas, who
have finished in the top places in
nearly all of the major tourna
ments in Texas. Irvin Stewart,
1941 state men’s singles champion
and Lowell Douglas, Baylor coach
and outstanding court performer
will also participate in the matches.

NRA Director Comes
To A&M Next Week to
Conduct Rifle Classes
Theurman Randle, Director of
the National Rifle Association,‘will
be on the A. & M. campus April
29, 30, and May 1, to hold classes
in rifle instruction.
The classes will be open to all
Aggies interested in receiving
training for rifle instructorships
and will be limited only by the
capacity of the class rooms.
Randle is a nationally known
rifleman and holds several records
in this field. He is being brought
to the college by the Extension
Service in conjunction with the
National Rifle Association.
Definite class periods and place
of registration have not been de
cided yet, but will be published in
Saturday’s paper.

this same boy—Bill Henderson—
was elected to captain the team
next season.
His sophomore year on the floor
he was selected as an all-confer
ence player. He then set out to
claim positions on more of the Ag
gie teams.
That same year he won a letter
in track.
In the Rice football game this
past year he attracted the eye of
every sports mentor in the country
and marked him as a men to watch
in his next two years of grid pla'j.
With the awarding of his grid
letter, it was realized that Bill
might become the first four-sports
letterman ever to attend A. & M.
All he lacks to claim another “T”
is the winning of a game on the
mound or the playing of forty-five
innings at first base.
On top of all this, he has taken
the Class A Intramural heavy
weight boxing title.
The only other player to receive
recognition by votes was Charlie
(Fat Boy) Stevenson.
