THURSDAY, OCTOBER 23, 1941- THE BATTALION Page 5 INTRAMORALS By DUB OXFORD mgr Class A Basketball Touch Football It seems that one organization out of the many on the campus thought that they could gain credit and possibly win a game by using ineligible men, and taking a still further long shot, decided to play them under assumed names. It is not the policy of the intra mural department to look for such discrepancies, but neither is it their policy to overlook them. To play an ineligible man is bad enough, but to play him under an assumed name in an attempt to win over an op posing team is a Oxford plain attempt to defraud the opposing team and win by “fair means or foul.” Not only does the organization that committed this breach of eth ics have a forfeit marked up again st them, but none of the players re ceive credit for a participation. We hate to think that there are men on this campus who are so very small as to pull a stunt like this, even though we do have our customary^'two per-cent.” It seems that “two per-center” has grown to a lowly “four.” This is the first time such an unethical move has been attempted and we hope it is the last. It was called to our attention by an un interested party and both the names of the men and the organziation are known. We will withhold the offenders names this time, but in the future, let the guilty beware. Such a move places a stigma on \\ “Right Dress ' for outstanding smartness'. alligator s^ 50 You’ll really get “attention" in this dashing authentic military model*.

Twenty-three games have been played; there are 26 yet to go. There’s a lot to be done yet, however, about the strictly family fight in the conference itself. Southwest teams have done pretty well for themselves in intersec tional play, but when two member teams meet each other they can’t both win. Only four conference tilts have been played, with 17 yet to go. Two of these come up next Satur day, and the spotlight is easily taken by the Texas-Rice affair at Austin. The Owls shut out the Long horns last year in Houston, 13 to 0. Since Rice won from the highly touted Tulane Greenies, there are those who contend the Owls are good enough to stop Texas. At any rate, it will be the game of the week in these parts, and the win ner will have gained the inside rail on the track that leads to the championship wire at the end of the season’s race. The Texas Aggies and the Bay lor Bears clash at College Station in the second conference contest of the day. The Bears held last year’s high-flying Aggies better than any team except Texas, who won from them. This year’s Bay lor eleven appears to be consider ably stouter than the 1940 team, but the Aggies will be playing at home. Pull a name out of the hat on this one. T. C. U. makes a Broadway ap pearance against Fordham in New York City Saturday afternoon. The Rams have what it takes (as they usually have) and the Frogs are given only one chance—that of keeping the score from piling up too big against them. The fourth contest of the week is a game under the lights in De troit, where Arkansas plays the University of Detroit Titans. The game will be the sixth night con test for Southwest teams this sea son. The Razorbacks are not con ceded much chance against Coach Gus Dorais’ boys.

Class ’97 Coach Kimbrough Uses Same Double Wing Formation as Ags Frank Kimbrough, head coach of the Baylor Bears, is in his four teenth year of coaching since his graduation from Hardin Simmons university in 1926. Kimbrough was a stellar athlete in college, let tering four times each in football and baseball, three times in basketball, and earning a letter in track. Coach Kimbrough, a long-time admirer of Homer Norton, is an ardent advocate of the double wing- back formation with emphasis on the forward pass. He has attend ed coaching school at A. & M. and has obtained a number of inside glimpses of the Aggie defensive and offensive strategy. Some of his plays have been styled after those of the Aggies and, as Baylor’s coach, he has taught much of this to his squad. When Baylor meets A. & M, there will be a demon stration of two similar fashions of football science in competition. After leaving Hardin Simmons in 1926, he entered medical school at Galveston for a year. In 1927, he became coach at Wayland Jun ior College of Plainview, staying there until 1932. Outstanding in Kimbrough’s stay at Wayland was that school’s 6 to 0 victory over the Texas Tech eleven in 1930. Kimbrough coached the Amarillo Junior College Badgers in 1933 and 1934; winning the Texas junior college title both years. The Har din Simmons squad was held to a 13-13 tie by the junior college team in 1934. He returned to his alma mater (See KIMBROUGH, Page 6) Enough to niake your hair stand onlend! m ■wsisass;;. On many of the defense projects encountered by the Bell System, the work sheets-showing telephone fae.ht.es needed and time allowed-would make a good, eonservattve engineer’s hair stand on end. For example, take the Navy’s huge new air base near Corpus Christi, Texas, which covers 14,500 acres, includes 29 separate flying fields and 481 buildings. Closely connected with the base are Defense Housing projects for 1700 families. Imagine the complex problems involved in planning tele phone -facilities for this new "city” where formerly there were sand dunes—in obtaining and installing miles and miles of wire and cable, switchboards, telephones by the thousand. But telephone engineers and construction men took hold —proceeded to shatter records—completed their huge task in seemingly impossible time. For men with the "will to do,” there’s a real thrill in such Bell System work!
