“Bashful Buzzard” Cartoon
Flicker Flashbacks Short
Coach Marty Karow has had* 1
three bad breaks during the past
week, as Bill Underwood, Dan Fold
berg, and Billy Townsend have one
by one dropped out of the avail
able list. Underwood, a former U.
S. Air Corps pilot, is suffering
from* flak wounds received in serv
ice and is not expected to return to
the court this season. Foldberg,
6’-l” freshman center from Dallas,
who has shown plenty of hustle in
games thus far, is in the hospital
with a knee injury; and Townsend,
a freshman guard from Coushatta,
La., is rendered ineligible by schol
astic difficulties.
A single ray of sunshine was in
jected into the otherwise cloudy
picture today when it appeared
that Oscar White, 6’-4” center
from Rising Star, who has been in
the hospital with a bone infection,
would possibly be in condition to
play. Jamie Dawson, sparkplug of
the Aggie offense, received a head
injury Monday night but is ex
pected to be in shape for the game.
The A. & &M. starting lineup
will probably include Homer Ad
ams and Bill Yeoman at guards,
Vass and Kirkland or Weber at
forwards, and Dawson in the cen
ter slot.
Coach Karow was somewhat pes
simistic yesterday as he reviewed
the Aggies’ chances for an upset
victory over the Steers, but com
mented that “we guarantee to see
that T. u. has a very busy evening.”
Tonight’s game has been moved
up to 7:00 p.m. in order to permit
basketball fans to attend the Town
Hall performance at 8:30 at Guion
Hall.
