Roy Peden and Charlie Steven
son have been designated by Coach
Marty Karow to face the T. C. U.
Horned Frogs today and tomorrow
as the Texas Aggie diamondeers
packed up their belongings and
headed for the invasion of North
Texas.
Following their series with the
Christians, they swing around to
Dallas to face the S. M. U. Mus
tangs in a one-game stand.
Baseball teams are made or
broken in the North, and it is our
hunch that Marty’s gang will come
out unscratched just as they did
in, their last three game series.
Meanwhile the Texas Longhorns
will face the Baylor Bears on their
home field, and should not have

for runnerup position, which should
be the highlight of the meet. The
cadets defeated the feathered flock
earlier in the season in a duel
meet, but lost out to the Owls last
week in the “Little Conference”

Golf, tennis, and track have their
final go round this weekend in

The Aggie linksmen participate in
the meet today and Friday, while
the cadet thinly clads and netters
have their heyday tomorrow and

Meets Frogs
In Cow Town
Peden to Take Mound
In Opening of Games
Roy Peden, who throttled the
S.M.U. Mustangs in a masterful
performance here last week, will
be Coach Marty Karow’s choice
to face the T.C.U. Frogs this aft
ernoon in Fort Worth in the open
ing of a two game series.
The cadets, who are in the midst
of a three game winning streak,
will send a lineup against T.C.U.
that has collected 24 runs and 28
hits in the last three games,
among which was a 14 to 6 Frog
setback. When hitting was lack
ing, pitching came through in fine
style to offset the slump.
The Toads are resting comfort
ably in the cellar with one win
to their credit. However, in sum
marizing their feats this season,
every team that has faced the
Frogs has had to fight hard for
a victory. Even the league-lead
ing Longhorns had to come from
behind to thump the ever-hust
ling T.C.U. team.
A. J. Brumbaugh, who has ac
counted for the lone Frog vic
tory, will probably be T.C.U.’s
choice to face the cadets in the
first game, with Adams or Van-
dervolk working in the second.
Adams’ three inning relief stunt
against the Aggies last week
should gain the big righthander
a starting berth.
Following the T.C.U. series, the
Karowmen journey on to Dallas
where they take on the revenge
seeking S.M.U. Mustangs in a sin
gle game. The Aggies showered
the Mustangs with heavy hitting
and excellent pitching in their last
time out, and will attempt to
duplicate their feat Saturday.
Lefty Bumpers, who has accounted
for three of the cadets six wins,
will face either Brooks Atchison,
loser of the first game here, or
Atwell Tessman, whose pitching
prowess, may well gain him an
other crack at the cadets .
Golf Team Plays
In Austin Tourney
Coach Frank Anderson and his
Aggie golf team left the campus
yesterday afternoon to participate
in the annual conference meet
which is to be held in Austin today.
Five other schools are entered, with
Texas and T. C. U. ranking as
pre-meet favorites.
This meet is expected to be the
closest one in many years. The
cadets have won four matches, lost
one and tied one. One of their best
exhibitions was against Texas
when they deadlocked the erst
while Steers, 3 to 3, in an early
season match.
Leading the cadet offense this
year at the meet will be the No. 1
and 2 men of the team, Henry
Hauser and Henry Richards. Haus
er, who is the captain of the links
men, has been one of the leading
golfers in the conference for the
past two years, and is expected to
put a serious bid for top individ
ual honors. His record this year
should place him among the top
of the selected golfers. He placed
second in the Fort Worth Exposi
tion.

Baseball Prospects
By Mike Haikin
With warm weather in prospect
for the coming weeks, softball is
in for heavy duty. Adverse weath
er has been alloted the dia
mondeers the past two weeks, but
with Old Sol looking down upon
us, the banging of balls and the
baseball byword “Play Ball” should
be heard excessively the next few
days.

These forfeits not only hurt the
teams, but it gets the intramural
department out of tune, too. At
this late a forfeit may mean the
difference between a high place
in the standings and a low one. So
let’s get together and keep away
from this doghouse.
Intramural activity was about
nil the past two days mainly due
to the number of forfeits. Volley
ball held the spotlight for the day,
as F Engineers turned back the
on-rushing B Field Artillery, 2
to 0, to gain the semi-finals in the
playoff. The engineers led all the
way, and were never seriously
threatened.
In a feature swimming meet,
F Field Artillery completely out-
swam the C Coast Artillery tank
ers in a 35 to 10 score. In other
matches, H Coast Artillery won
over D Infantry by a score of
27 to 20; G Coast blasted B Signal
Corps into submission by a score
of 30 to 14; and E Field Artillery
outscored I Infantry, 26 to 18.
