TUESDAY, JANUARY 20, 1942- THE BATTALION -Page 5 Coach Marty Karow’s quintet will play host to the twice-beaten Kice Institute Owls tomorrow night in the DeWare Field House at 7:30. Already knocked off their high perch twice, first by the Texas Ag gies and next by the Arkansas Razorbacks, the Owls will have to get by the Aggies in order to stay in the race. And it’s vice-versa for the Cadets. To beat the Aggies, the feathered flock will have to be on their toes throughout the whole evening, because if they slip but once, it might prove fatal. The Aggies, though not a basketball power, have been known to be very tough on their home court, and have wrought many upsets on favored teams such as Texas and Baylor.

As for the Maroon and White team of Coach Marty Karow, it primarily will have to stop “Bat- em” Bob Kinney and Bill Tom Gloss, the high scoring aces of the Owls. They will have to hustle like they never have before for the Owls will be here after revenge and will be all set for the Cadets. Hustling has ben one of the fea tures of Coach Karow’s five this year, and should they start making good some of their free throws and long shots they might get somewhere. Their hustling and teamwork was great against Rice in Houston last week, and if they play like that against the Owls tomorrow, the Ags will have a great chance in pulling another unset.

Eco.—“Principles of Advertising” Coach Bill Buchanan’s Maroon team, composed of the Infantry, Cavalry, the Composite regiments and the Bands, capitalized on three self-made breaks to down the White team of Bill Buchanan, 19-0, Saturday afternoon on Kyle Field in the annual Red Cross Charity game. Vance Carrington, 174 lb. triple threat back from Maroons, and Earl Bemus, 185 lb. speedy back from the Infantry combined their efforts together to bring the Ma roons a victory. Carrington scor ed the first touchdown, passed for the second one to “Kay” Kizer, while Bemus accounted for the last one with a 44 yard run with an intercepted pass. Tom Lamberth was the big gun for the White team, doing most of the running and passing. His slinging hit the spot with remark able accuracy, but his receivers developed a case of “butterfingers” and dropped some half-dozen well placed aerials. First Break The Maroons received their first break early in the first quarter. Bolton kicked off for the Reds, and Lamberth brought the ball back to the 22. On the first play from scrimmage, Tom fumbled, and the Reds recovered. In three smashes, Carrington and Johnny Scoggins collaborated in bringing the ball to the one yard line from where Car rington hit left tackle for the score. Lamberth brought the ensuing kickoff back to the 28 yard line. In two plays he fumbled again and the Maroons recovered on the 32. Bemus broke loose for sixteen yards around left end before final ly being brought down out of bounds on the White sixteen. In three tries Carrington gained on ly six yards, but on fourth down, his pass was good to Kizer for the score. Bolton kicked goal, and the score was 13-0 as the half ended. Whites Threaten Most of the third period was a see-saw affair, with neither team having any sort of edge. Just before the end of the period, the Whites received a break as O’Neal sent a beautiful punt out of bounds on the Maroon 13. yard line. Vogt returned Carrington’s punt to the Maroon 22. Lamberth passed to Goodman for 4 yards, and one the next play Johnny Von Sprecken smashed left tackle*to the five yard line. However, the Ma roons stopped the Whites cold as Von Sprecken was thrown for a six yard loss on fourth down. Near the middle of the fourth period the Maroons scored their third and final touchdown as Bemus intercepted O’Neal’s float ing pass and ran 44 yards for a touchdown. The game ended shortly with a flurry of desperate White passes going for nought. The above picture shows Earl Bemis (44) of the Maroons tearing around left end for 16 yards to set up the Red’s second score. Close on his heels are O’Neal (29), Mache mehl (59), Flowers (40), Northcott (54), Zimicki (4), and Lamberth (30). The Ma roons seen in the shot include Bolton (65), Wheeler (54), White (56), Plyler (25) and DeSalvo (64). The man trail ing the players in the black and white shirt is Official W. L.

The Rice Institute Owls, seek ing revenge for the 36-34 defeat by the Texas Aggies last week, meet the Cadets in DeWare Field House Wednesday at 7:30 p. m. The Owls, who were pre-season favor ites to take the Southwest Confer ence championship, have suffered two setbacks in the past week. First was the upset by the Cadets followed by stunning 55-47 defeat by the Arkansas Razorbacks Sat urday night. The Owls will be gunning for the Aggies as a result of the close-fought game which ended with the Cadets on top. Bob Kin ney and Tom Gloss, sparkplugs of the Owls, have been giving con tinued displays of sparkling play. The conference race is all jumbled up, with the Baylor Bears, a mediocre team on the predic tion lists, leading the pack with three victories and no defeats. The Arkansas Razorbacks are in sec ond place with three wins and one loss. It has been a number of years since the Aggies have defeated the Owls in Aggieland. The Cadets will be trying to show the fans that the win over Rice last week was not just a fluke victory. Bill Henderson scored 11 points to take high-point honors for the Cadets in their game against Bay lor. He was closely followed by Ray Jarrett with 10 points and Fred Nabors with nine points. The top four season-scorers for the Cadets are Henderson 98, Jarrett and Leland Huffman 86 each, and Nabors 75 points. Jarrett and Huffman have shown expert skill in sinking bas kets and have sparked many of the Aggie scoring sprees. This duet is constantly in the game with as much hustle and fight as can be seen anywhere. The probable starting lineup for the Aggies is Jarrett and Nabors, forwards; Henderson, center; and Cokinos and Huffman, guards. Likely starters for the Owls are Gloss and Gomez, forwards; Kin ney, center; and Palmer and Lam bert, guards. —DISTRACTION S— (Continued from Page 2) excellent music that has come .out of movieland in a long time, then don’t fail to see “THE CHOCO LATE SOLDIER” at Guion Hall Thursday and Friday.
