THE BATTALION

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. Last year on their own
court, the Ags gave Rice the
scare of their life before succumb-

decided in the last 30 seconds of
play.
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.

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

Aggie Fencing Team
Loses to NTAC Here
The Aggie Fencing team suffer
ed a loss last Saturday afternoon
at the hands of the N. T. A. C.
team down at the gym. The Aggies
won the foils meet, but lost the
dueling swords and sabers matches.
Bederman, Stillinger and Shaw
won the foils matches for the Ag
gies. Adcock and Shaw copped the
dueling sword matches while Stil
linger and Wells took the saber
matches. Lyne was the outstanding
fencer for the Junior Aggie team.
The members of the Aggie team
are R. W. Shaw, captain, D. L. Stil
linger, C. L. Adcock, J. K. Wells,
J. J. Bederman. The Aggie team
sponsor is Lambert Molyneaux.
The N. T. A. C. team is composed
of Lyne, captain, Relyea, War-
math, Crockett, and Robinson.
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.
