skill and consistency. He has earned
a starting position in the Cadet
lineup and and has proven to be
an expert on both offense and de
fense. His home is at Belton and
he is majoring in fish and game.
Aggie quarterback for the 1942
season has been Cullen (Slick)
Rogers of Mart, Texas. Slick placed
second in the Southwest Confer
ence scoring race last season. With
a specialty of pass-receiving, Ro
gers has led the Cadets to many
touchdowns this year. The com
bination of Daniels to Rogers has
been the nemesis of many teams.
He leads the nation in pass-receiv
ing at the present time.
Bill (Dub) Sibley, stellar Aggie
center, has proven to be the best
defensive player on the- Cadet
squad. In 1941 he was voted to the
All-Southwest Conference team
through his sparkplug play at cen
ter. Bill is a hustler all the ‘way
and opposing ball carriers have
learned to keep a tight grip on the
ball when Dub is around.
Another of the outstanding ends
on the Aggie team is Elvis (Boots)
Simmons, 205-pounder from Som
erville, Texas. Boots divided time
with Henderson last year but he
has been a starter on the 1942 line
up. He is another of the three two-
lettermen on the squad. Simmons
has all of the offensive and defen
sive qualities that a coach pictures
in his “dream end.”
Jackson (Jake) Webster, 192-
pound Aggie fullback, has set the
pace for Cadet ball-carriers with
his blocking and plunging. Jake
stunned the sports world in 1941.
when he made 24 consectutive con
versions before he finally missed.
Hi stotal for last season was 29
conversions out of 32 attempts.
Last but not least we have Willie
Zapalac, dangerous blocker who tips
the scales at 200 pounds. In the
season of 1940 he was the great
Jim Thomason’s understudy. Be
sides being the team’s best blocker
Willie can hit the line and run the
ends as good as any player on the
team. Much yardage has been gain
ed by the Aggie team this season
by vitue of vicious blocks thrown
by Zapalac.
The nine junior members of the
Aggie grid squad wil probably^be
playing their last game of their
college careers. As they will grad
uate in September, 1943, they will
be in the armed services or grad
uated by the time the 1943 season
rolls around.
Heading the list of juniors are
three lettermen who proved their
worth last season and have been
upholding their prowess this year.
Lightning Leo Daniels, the back-
field flash, was voted the outstand
ing sopohmore in the Southwest
Conference last year. He has led
the Aggies with his passing, kick
ing, and running this year. Next
comes Arthur Mercer, hustling Ag
gie center who has shared that posi
tion with Bill Sibley this year. Mer
cer has proven to be a good defen
sive center. The last junior letter-
man is Bobby Williams, dimuni-
tive tailback, who, with but a
Candidates for Junior Represen
tative on the Student Activities
committee must meet the same re
quirements as those for Junior Yell
Leader except that no petition is
required and no separate vote of
the Sophomore and Junior classes
will be held. This officer is elected
by the whole corps.
Requirements for Junior
Yell Leaders
Junior yell leaders shall be elect
ed by a vote of the sophomore and
junior classes. To be eligible for
the position a student must meet
the following requirements:
(a) He must have attended A.
& M. College for three continuous
semesters, and at the time of his
candidacy be in attendance in his
fourth continuous semester.
(b) He must be a classified
sophomore with a grade point aver
age of at least 1.25.
(c) He must have passed at least
three-fifths of a normal semester’s
work during the semester immedi
ately preceding his candidacy.
To get his name on the ballot,
the student must file at the Stu
dent Activities Office at least one
week prior to the election. He must
file a petition of candidacy signed
by at least 200 sophomores, juniors
or seniors with the chairman of the
Student Elections Committee at
least one week prior to the elec
tion. At the time of filing he must
pay a filing fee of fifty cents. If
he is declared ineligible by action
of the Student Elections Commit
tee, or if he withdraws of his own
free will, this fee is to be refunded.
All of the candidates who qualify
as candidates under the above re
quirements will appear before a
meeting of the sophomore class to
be voted on. The six candidates who
receive the highest number of votes
shall appear at a joint meeting of
the junior and sophomore classes.

This year one football player
stood far out in front in statistical
points calculated in its 1942 poll
by the Williamson System. He was
no other than “Flat-foot” Frankie
Sinkwich, halfback or fullback or
almost what-have-you of Georgia
—present No. 1 football team of
the nation. No wonder he otherwise
is called “the Fire-Ball.” This re
markable gridiron performer re
ceived votes on nearly every one
of the hundreds of replies to a
questionnaire sent out by the Sys
tem in November.
Next to Frankie in widespread
popularity was Paul Governali, out-
weight of 174 pounds, hits the line
with the force of a 200-pound full
back. His speed and deception has
dealt misery to many a would-be-
tackler.
Others on the list of juniors are:
Bill Andrews, speedy tackle from
Amarillo; Truman Cox, pass-snag
ging end who hails from Donna;
Don Luethy, vicious tackle whose
home is at Monahans; Ed Ogdee, a
guard from San Benito who has
seen much service this year; Pete
Slaughter, of Houston, another end
who is a sweet player on either
offense or defense; and Ed Sturc-
ken, 222-pound fullback from San
Antonio.

(Continued From Page 3)
outs since the Texas game have
featured pass patterns, and judg
ing by this and the remarks of
Coach Norton the Aggies will flash
the most dazzling aerial attack
that they have yet cooked up this
year.
The game is expected to provide
plenty of thrills for the fans, as
a spirited and excited contest is
forecast. The Cougars are out to
avqnge the 7-0 licking which the
Aggies handed them last year in
Seattle, and the Aggies are out
to prove that they can come back
after the Texas defeat. The same
combination that provided the win
ning touchdown of an otherwise
deadlocked battle last year will
be playing for the Aggies again
today. It was a 34-yard pass from
Leo Daniels to Cullen Rogers that
scored the only tally of last year’s
game, and Jake Webster converted
the extra point.
As far as physical condition is
concerned the Aggies will be rath
er handicapped today. Felix Bucek,
ace guard, and standout of the
Aggie line was just released from
the hospital in time to make the
train Thursday and will be far from
ready to go this afternoon. In addi
tion to suffering from three crack
ed ribs, he was also handicapped
by a light case of the flu. Several
other Aggies are still nursing in
standing quarterback and near-
miraculous passer of this year’s
Columbia U. “Lions” of that fine
coach, Doc Lou Little. Governali,
while decidedly below Sinkwich in
the voting, was almost as decided
ly above all the other nominees in
the poll.

IN MODERN DRESS
Old Scrooge used to De a dreadful killjoy
and skin-flint. But one night he had a
vision of a shirt, a tie and a handkerchief.
The shirt had the handsomest pattern and
collar he’d ever seen. The tie harmonized
so beautifully with the shirt that he
thought he heard the angels singing. And
the handkerchief chimed in smoothly.
The vision announced itself as "Arrow
Carol Tones.”
Next day, Scrooge lost no time buying
Arrow Carol Tones for himself, his nephew
Fred, Tiny Tim, and everyone else he
could think of. The'shirts all had the San
forized label, which meant they couldn't
shrink out of fit. The ties knotted perfectly,
and their patterns looked like £1,000,000.
And the shorts were most comfortable.
So, everyone was happy, and old Scrooge
became the most popular man in town.
