Fish Bury Camp Hood Under 71-0 Avalanche
Baylor Has Compiled Great “Home” Record
Against Coach Homer Norton's Texas Aggies
When the Texas Aggies clash
against the Baylor Bears Saturday
at Waco they will be engaging
one of the toughest “home” teams
of the entire conference, and that’s
not just for the past year or so-it’s
been that way ever since the Ag
gies and the Bruins resumed foot
ball relations back in 1931 on Kyle
Field.
It has always been more of a
fact than anything else that a team
can always play better ball in its
own back yard than it can on for
eign soil. That has been proven
time and again, especially in the
Texas and A&M series. Home
crowds, that needed pep from the
throng and other psychological fac
tors all went to give the home
team a small advantage.
But with Baylor, that “home”
feeling has been more than a mere
small advantage. It seems that they
can surmount any hurdle if they
have that psychological effect of
playing on their home grounds.
Since 1932, the Maroon and
White shirted Aggies of A&M Col
lege have been able to account for
two triumphs at Waco, the highest
margin of victory being 7 points,
a feat accomplished by the great
1940 aggregation.
The Cadets have brought some
of the strongest teams of the con
ference to Waco, and although fa
vored to come through with an
overwhelming win, they either lost
to the fightin’ Bruins or barely
gained a victory. Notable of these
was the 1938 battle when the Ag
gies were heavy favorites to annex
the game. Pounding that good ole’
Baylor line back and forth from
one end of the field to the other,
the Ags were only able to gain a
6-6 deadlock after being subjected
to their hardest tussle of the year.
This year, the Cadets of Coach
Homer Norton trek over to Waco
with an unimpressive record of
one win and three losses. The
Bears, meanwhile, have accounted
for four victories out of five games
but will be considered underdogs
despite that record.
It’s a cinch that if the Aggies
want to win Saturday they will
have to double their efforts, for
those Baylor Bears are known to
be a tough foe, especially when
there’s I a home-coming crowd
around.

Rover Crew Meets
Tonight in Y Lounge
Th Aggie Rover Crew, associa
tion of former Boy Scouts, will
hold an important meeting this eve
ning in the lounge of the YMCA
at six o’clock, according to Buster
White, field artillery senior who
leads the organization.
White stated that very important
plans for future activities will be
discussed at the meeting, and urged
all old members of the Crew and
all other former Boy Scouts who
are interested in Scouting to be
present. Having sponsored such
successful programs as the “Scout-
O-Rama,” held this past summer,
the Crew, now going into its sec
ond year of existence, has more
plans along the same line set up
for the future.

The Texas Aggie Fish football
ers turned in their second win of
the season yesterday afternoon on
Kyle Field when they slaughtered
the 628th Tank Destroyer Battal
ion team from Camp Hood by a
71-0 count. The game was one of
the worst routs ever seen on Kyle
Field, with the Fish in complete
command of the contest from the
opening whistle. Sparking the
freshmen attack was once more
the excellent running of their 165
pound scatback, Marion Flanagan.
• Baty Stars
Also a major factor in the over
whelming victory was the accurate
passing of Buryi Baty, who com
pleted 13 out of 20 heaves, three
of them going for touchdowns.
Baty also completed two more
aerials which would have been good
for six points, but both of them
were called back and the Fish pen
alized. 1
The Fish kicked off to the “Tank
Busters” to open the contest, and
after three futile trys at the stout
Fish line were forced to kick. It
was then that the fireworks start
ed. Flanagan hit tackle for nine
yards, Baty passed to Flanagan
for 16 yards, and then Baty circled
end for a score. The play was call
ed back, however, and the Fish
were penalized 15 yards for clip
ping. Baty then passed to Flana
gan for another touchdown, but
again the play was called back
and the Fish penalized, this time
for offsides.
Fish Score
After losing 11 yards the Fish
kicked out on the Tank Busters’
15. After two exchanges of kicks,
Baty passed to Zock for nine
yards, and it Baty’s passing work
ed the ball to the Camp Hood four
yard line from where Flanagan
crashed over for a touchdown. The
Fish kicked off to the Tank Bus
ters, and after they were forced to
punt, Flanagan returned the kick
from his own 45 yard line to the
Camp Hood 24. Two. plays later
Baty dropped back and shot a
perfect pass to End Bill Grear for
the second score. The conversion
attempt failed.
Early in the second quarter the
Fish worked the ball down to the
Hood 5 yard line on a sustained
ground attack, and Haltom crash
ed over for a touchdown. Dodson

Ags Given Toughest Drills
Of Year; To Leave Fri Morn
After experiencing their hardest
and toughest scrimage of the year
against the freshman and the “C”
squad in the past two days the
Texas Aggie gridsters will take
it easy this afternoon and tomor
row as they taper off in prepara
tion for their clash with the Baylor
Bears at Waco Saturday.
Coach Homer Norton and 34
gridsters wil leave for Waco Fri
day morning at 10 o’clock, taking
the train from College to Bremond
whence they will board a bus which
will take them on to the Baylor
city. There they will take a short
workout Friday afternoon at Muny
Stadium before calling it a day
until the Saturday ball game.
Blocking the secondary out after
the ball-carrier gets past the line
of scrimage was continually em
phasized in Tuesday’s scrimmage
sessions. Line-men and backs alike
were given definite assignments as
to the man to take care of past that
line of scrimmage and each did
their job much to Coach Homer
Norton’s delight.
First the A team, sparked by
the consistent blocking zeal of
Willie Zapalac, Cullen Rogers and
Wayne Cure ran roughshod over the
“C” squad and their consistency
was carried over by the second-
stringers. Otto Payne, Weldon
Maples and Ed Ogdee looked ex
ceptionally good in taking care
of the would-be tacklers.
Little Bobby Williams, 175 lbs.,
of dynamite whose marriage this
past weekend seems to have added
zest to his ball-carrying, looked
like a million dollars lugging that
pigskin as he would zig one way
and zag the other with remarkable
regularity. Bob is slated for heavy
duty against the Bears and if his
swift running is any indication,
the little Elorado youngster will be
the Bears’ chief nemesis.
Wednesday afternoon, both
squads endured almost the same
shedule as the A and B teams con
tinued to batter the hard-working
C squad all over the lot. The latter
has been giving the first and sec
ond teams plenty of competition,
and it is their hard work that
makes the Aggies team improve
with each week.
All those boys in the line and
backfield—Muley Moore., Bill
Redus, Red Brown, Jelly Steymann,
Johnny Davis, Fred Walker, Har
old Attaway, Jim Montgomery,
Dickie Haas, Ed Dusek, Johnny
Whitacre.
