One of the Waco scribes de
scribed yesterday’s baseball game
as a comedy of errors, but to our
mind it was a comedy of the Ag
gies banging every offering the
Bruin twirlers served them.
In the first of the fourth it
looked as if the rain gods would
take over, and Coach Dimmitt, see
ing his boys with a comfortable
7-1 lead, decided it would be a good
idea to get the required four and
a half innings played. Therefore,
the Aggies did everything except
go to bat without a bat trying to
make outs, but the Baylor boys
had different ideas. They started
prolonging the contest, and it
looked as if it might go on for
ever. But eventually the side was
retired, and the ball game went
the entire nine. The boys could
have easily used flashlights in the
ninth because of the darkness. Um
pires could have used them during
the entire game. (All right, maybe
we don’t have a right to talk about
the umpires).
Bill Bradley, stellar first base-
man for the Aggies, was called
out of the ball game in the fourth
inning when he received an emer
gency call from college that his
little girl was seriously ill. He
was rushed to Bryan, and reported
last night that she was resting
much better.
Hubert Moon got a freak hit yes
terday. It was of the infield va
riety. With" the count 2 and 1,
“Hub” took a terrific cut, and hit
the ball on the handle of his bat.
The bat broke into three pieces,
the big end going toward the sec
ond baseman, another piece going
to the pitcher, and Hubert was left
with a small piece of the handle.
The second baseman chased the big
end, the pitcher the small sliver
coming his way, and the catcher
was dumfounded, watching the ball
trickle down the third base line.
“Hub” took off for an infield hit,
and a small piece of bat, he car
ried with him.

Bill Yeoman, outstanding bas
ketball and football player has an
nounced that he will enter West
Point July 1. It will be a severe
loss to both the teams, but the
coaches and the student body wish
Bill all the luck in the world in
his new venture.
Yeoman is also a distinguished
student here at college, and he
passed both the competitive exam
inations for Annapolis and West
Point.

in order to prevent runaway in
flation the process of releasing
price controls should be very grad
ual and on a selective basis.
The trend toward superiority in
bargaining power of labor over
capital started in 1930, Col. Chev
alier said, and wil result eventually
in improved social and economic
condtions. He warned that the
transiton would be acompanied by
a good many evils and abuses and
that the possibility of a govern
ment-controlled economy would be
an attendant danger. He labelled as
a common mistake the effort to ar
rest the trend rather thain to
control and guide it.
Col. Chevalier concluded his re
marks by scoring the policy of
isolationism and citing “our mut
ual dependence upon one another”
as the hope for solution of both
our domestic and international
problems.
