Coach Norton’s gridders are leading the conference as
far as offensive averages are concerned, and also boast the
leading scorer. Paul “Bubba” Yates who has 48 points to his
credit. Only two fumbles were committed by the Cadets in
the game with N. T. A. C., so maybe their acute case of
fumbling is a thing of the past. It was during the T. C. U.
game that .the Cadets committed nine fumbles which paved
the way for their downfall.
Jimmy Cashion, regular quarter-'*-
back, is expected to be in the start
ing lineup Saturday, after being
held out of action in the N.T.A.C.
game. Jimmy suffered a leg in-
. jury the latter part of last week,
but seems to be about normal
again. Performing in his position
last week was Tom Daniels who
took over and ran the team like a
veteran. Gene Spires alternated
between his halfback slot and the
quarterback position and looked
especially good on his passes.
The Aggies starting backfield
is still somewhat indefinite. Coach
Norton can start either Bob
Butch of sky or Mann Scott at the
right halfback post. Butch is
rounding into playing shape after
being shelved with a broken jaw,
while Scott has been coming along
fast the last few games after get
ting off to a slow start. The other
three Aggie backs Saturday will
be Jimmy Cashion, Bob Goff, and
Paul Yates.
Arkansas will boast a four
pound per man weight advantage
overv, the Aggies, averaging 191
pounds to the Cadet’s 187. The Hog
line averages 191 while their
backs hit 190. The Aggie forwards
average 196 and the backs 170.
Probable starting lineups are:
A. & &M.: Cotton Howell, left
end; Charles Shira, left tackle; Bill
Gray, left guard; Bob Gary, center;
Damon Tassos, right guard; Monte
Moncrief, right tackle; Norton
Higgins, right end; James Cash
ion, quarterback; Bob Butchofsky,
right half; Bob Goff, left half; and
Paul Yates, fullback.
Arkansas: Lamar Dingier, left
end; Glen Halstead, left tackle;
Henry Ford, left guard; Earl
Wheeler, center; Robert Cope, right

Michael Straight. 41 7pages, 1943.
A twenty-four year old American
has produced the best book (in
this reviewer’s opinion) about post
war problems.
What To Do With Italy, by Gae
tano Salvemini and George La Pi-
ana. 295 pages, 1943. A sensible
review of the whole Italian ques
tion, with sane suggestions.
One World, by Wendell Willkie.
206 pages. 1943. If you won’t read
more than one book on this sub
ject, read this one.
Economics and Peace, a primer
and a program; the primer by Marc
A. Rose . . . the program by a
group of 34 economists. 63 pages,
1937. A little old, but not out of
date. Especially useful for making
clear the connection between eco
nomics and world politics.
Dumbarton Oaks Conference
Proposals for the Establishment
of a General International Organ

compare these measures with the

release. After 28 years I felt it
was coming to me.
“But the job has been a major
factor in my life. It’s been a great
social satisfaction to me. I’ve got
ten more out of it than I put in.”
Upon being informed of the
resignation of Law, Gilchrist said,
“Texas A. & M. college has lost
the services of a man whose entire
life has been wrapped up in this
institution.
“Mr. Law has been extremely
helpful to me both during my ten
ure as dean of engineering and
president. The progress of Texas
A. & M. during Mr. Law’s tenure
has been such as to prove the value
to the state and to the institution
of pai’ticipation of a successful
business man in it’s affairs.”
Gilchrist added: “He will be
missed by his host of friends at the
college but this loss is tempered
somewhat by Mr. Law’s promise
to maintain his intense interest in
the institution, to visit us often,
and give counsel and advice when
ever it might be needed.”
Harrison, the new appointee
graduated in animal husbandry
and served as a county agent for
some time. Harrison does not suc
ceed Law as president as the board
members always choose their pre
siding officer.

BATTALION
Srtt
By S. L. “Slim” Inzer
Battalion Sports Editor
Aggies, Longhorns, and Rice Picked
This writer took a new lease
on, life last week when he guessed
four out of five games, missing only
the Rice-Texas tilt. I might add
that I didn’t feel at all bad about
the outcome of that game and am
willing to miss one like that every
now and then.
So it is with a new outlook
that I attempt to pick the winners
for this. Saturday. There are two
conference games on the'card, the
other two conference members tak
ing on outside opposition.
A. & M. over Arkansas—The
Aggies have a better team than
they showed against TCU in their
only other conference outing. Ar
kansas has a big team and are
dangerous, but if the Cadets play
the brand of ball they are capable
of playing they should win.
“Jarrin John ,, Returns
When any sports fan thinks of
football in connection with Texas
A. & M., he usually thinks of John
Kimbrough. Mr. Football himself
returned to the campus this week
and proved that his name still
carries dynamite.
All eyes in the mess hall were
focused on him during the even
ing meal Monday and the Aggies
crowded around his table to meet
and shake hands with the immprtal
fullback of A. & M. John was just
TEXAS over S. M. U. — This
game maye be closer than most
people expect, however the Long
horns should win. If Layne, Pyler,
and Fischer miss the game as the
papers indicate, the Mustangs
could easily win.
RICE over Texas Tech.—Rice
seems to have the top team in the
Southwest at the present writing,
and unless the Raiders have come
a long way since the early part
of the season the Owls should win.
T.C.U. over Chatham Field. —
The Frogs have been weakened
recently but they still rate the
edge over this Service outfit.
RANDOLPH FIELD over N. T.
A. C.—The hospitals at San An
tonio should keep some rooms
empty.
as glad to meet the present Aggies
as they were to meet him, for de
spite his fame he has remained
the swell person and Aggie he al
ways was.
“Jarrin John” is now a Captain
in the Army Air Forces, and was
by Aggieland to visit his brother,
Jack. He is expecting to really get
into the fight soon, and when he
does the Nazis and slant eyes
haven’t got a chance.
Navy Troubles
-f-
Three Southwest Conference
schools were hard hit by Navy
transfers and examinations during
the past week. Rice lost Buck Shef
field and Joe Howard, two of their
most dependable players, but they
gained eight more men. None of
the eight new men are expected
to be outstanding gridders, how
ever.
At T.C.U., Coach Dutch Meyer
suffered a repetition of the 1943
season when he found himself with
only five starters from the early
season team. However, Meyer was
a little better prepared for these
transfers this year than he was
last fall.
Over at the forty acres, Coach
Dana Bible has losi five of his
men. Phil Bolin, regular guard has
been transferred, while Conda Ke-
gans, A1 Martin, Paul Simpson,
and Truett Peachey did not come
up to the scholastic standards.

The meeting was addressed by
President Gibb Gilchrist of Texas
A. & M. College who, until recent
ly, had been chairman of the Post

sion. President Gilchrist resigned
his chairmanship of the Commis
sion on account of pressure of oth
er duties and -has been succeeded
by A. P. Rollins, Sr., of Dallas.
President Gilchrist told the
meeting th^t one of the first ob
jectives set down by the Postwar
Economic Planning Commission
related to agriculture and called
for stimulated “production of ag
ricultural, forest and livestock
products and the potential use of
manpower in that field, including
the development of processing in
dustries for agricultural and other
raw-materials and products.”
Some 30 representatives of
farming and ranching organiza
tions, and State and Federal agri
cultural agencies took turns giving
their views on the major problems
that will confront the industry aft
er war’s end. In several instances
suggested methods of handling
these problems were enumerated.
All this data will be at the dispos
al of the seven-man committee ap
pointed by V. C. Marshall at the
close of the all-day discussion.
