—AGGIE FISH—
(Continued from page 3)
a beautiful 34 yard pass from Al
varez resulted when Bart Haltom
of the Fish intercepted one of
Alvarez’s passes on his own one
yard line, and was knocked back
over thp goal for a safety.
Ernest Genthner, who incident
ally played a standout game at
end kicked off for the Fish to
open the ball game. Allen tried
two plunges at the stout Fish line
and then kicked to Flanagan who
made an 11 yard return. The first
half was a hard fought affair with
neither team able to gain an ad
vantage.
Flanagan Goes Over
Early in the second quarter the
Fish drove deep into Allen terri
tory and Flanagan plunged over
from the five yard line for the first
score of the game. Following this
the Ramblers opened up with a
terrific aerial assault which cul
minated in a 34 yard pass, Alvarez
to Sudduth, for a score. The half
ended with the score standing 6-6.
Allen Academy kicked off to open
the second half, and Flanagan took
the ball on his own five yard line,
fumbled momentarily and behind
beautiful blocking raced 95 yards
for a touchdown. The Ramblers
then opened up another aerial as
sault which culminated in a safety
when Haltom intercept a pass and
was tackled over his own goal. The
Fish took the ball on their own 15
yard line late in the third quarter
and marched 85 yards for their
third score. Strohmeyer kicked the
only conversion of the afternoon.
The fourth quarter found the
fish attack slowed up somewhat
as a steady stream of substitutes
trickled into the game. GoaCh Lil
Dimmitt used a total of 53 players
during the afternoon. However, late
in the fourth quarter Allen was
penalized to their 15 yard line for
clipping and from this point, Baty
pitched a touchdown pass to Flan
agan for the final score of the con
test.
The Fish roundly outplayed the
Ramblers in every department, pil
ing up a total of 132 yards pass
ing and 144 yards rushing to the
visitors’ 79 and 36 respectively.
Leading ground gainer of the day
was Flanagan who carried the ball
eight times for a total of 64 yards.

(Continued from Page 1)
. . . tighter, tighter . . . you’re
going into a deep sleep ... I am
going to count to ten, and at each
count you will go into a deeper
sleep . . . one . . . two . . three . . ”
By the time he reached the count
of ten, Williams (we’ll drop han
dles for convenience) was rocking
limply in a deep sleep. Backster
continued, “You now have perfect
balance. You will not rock any
more.” Immediately Williams stop
ped rocking.
Incredible Mental Powers
The most fascinating and most
incredible part of the demonstra
tion was the mental telepathy and
clairvoyance. The latter word
means the power to see things not
visibly present. Backster placed
Williams in a chair facing the cor
ner of the room, then said, “I
want your mind to mentally look
behind you; then you can tell me
who you see and what he is doing.”
Williams mumbled, “I see the boy
who takes pictures and writes for
the Battalion. He is reaching in
his back pocket for his billfold.”
“Good,” said Backster, “Now, I
want your mind to mentally travel
around and find Lt. White.” After
a moment he replied, “He is out
at the polo grounds talking with
Lt. North.” Later I checked up, but
found the clairvoyant mistaken.
However, several boys in Goodwin
testified that during the A. & M.-
Corpus game Backster had a boy
under hypnosis who told many in
cidents about the game which were
announced a few seconds later over
the radio. Backster admits his sub
jects aren’t always accurate, but
he is trying to perfect his clair
voyance. He intends to get into
the army or navy intelligence de
partment when he graduates from
A. & M.
Backster is of course taking all
the psychology he can get, but he
has to major in sociology because
no major in psychology is offered
at A. & M. He picked up the art
three years ago at Rutgep’s prep
School, where he overheard another
boy telling about the powers of
hypnotism. He tried it on a hall-
mate, and to his surprise it worked.
Since then he has read a great deal
on the subject and done much re
search, especially in the field of
clairvoyance.
He more than welcomes anyone
interested to drop around to Room
62, Goodwin, to shoot the bull or
to be hypnotized. He works at the
Campus theater Wednesday, Sat-
