THE BATTALION
Page 3
ON KYLE FIELIL
by PAUL MARTIN
Aggies Trounce Frogs, Swamped by Ponies in Openers
Last week the South West Conference opened with a
bang and, taking into consideration the expected number of
upsets and a few not expected, the weeks results might be
considered fairly representative of the outcome of the race.
Every team in the conference had at least one match and
most of them had two.
In Fayetteville the Rice Owls
dropped two in a row to the Ra-
zorbacks, the first by the narrow
margin of 52-51 and the second,
played on the following night
by the score of 66-53. This
places the Porkers up with Tex
as with two wins and no losses
and both teams have a good
chance of preserving this record
for awhile. However the Owls
are not out by any means and
with ten games left on their
schedule they may pull a few
upsets.
Texas is off to a good start as
usual and is scheduled to chalk up
a few more entries in the win col
umn sparked by John Hargis and
a long tall freshman named Tom
Hamilton. They opened with
TCU’s Frogs, defeating them 62-46
and then dumped Baylor in the
mud with a score of 45-38. The

Despite the Aggie’s one win and
one loss this week-end to start the
conference ball rolling we came
out with a rather bad showing
against a taller, more experienced
and faster SMU team. The results
of the week-end did give us the
jump on TCU and Rice. Baylor
and SMU have their second game
yet to play. It is still a bit early
in the season to make a definate
statement on the outcome of the
' SWC but though the Ags may not
have the material to make a cham
pionship team this year they are
still in a good position to pull some

TCU bringing up the rear with

with the SMU Ponies slated for
next Wednesday night which
should prove interesting as the
Mustangs are plenty hot right
now. Considering the fact that

Baylor Bears and though the
Bruins have a tough team I’ll stick
to the Maroon and White on this

bunch of boys who are capable of
some real ball handling.
Bill Batey is still setting the
pace for chalking up points among
players in the Southwest Confer
ence with 186 to date followed by
John Hargis of Texas with 179
points. The Aggie cagers have
the nucleus of a real team.

have done, but I’m asking the boys
who are here tonight and myself
to pledge a championship at Texas

Aggies To Play
Bears Here Wed.
With a record of one won and
one lost in the Southwest Con
ference race, the Texas Aggies
will take on the defending cham
pion Baylor Bears in DeWare Field
House on the campus here Wed
nesday evening, January 15, at
8 p. m.
The Bears served notice last
week that they are a dangerous
team by threatening the Texas
Longhorns but finally went down
by six points, made by Texas in
the last few minutes of the game.
The Athletic Department offi
cials have announced that a capac
ity crowd is anticipated and that
no general public tickets will be
sold for that game. It also was
announced that they will follow
the policy recommended by the
Student Council and will limit ad
mission to coupon book holders to
those bearing odd number endings.
For example the holder of any
book bearing a number ending in
1-3-5-7-9 will be admitted. Even
numbers will be admitted to the
next home game which will be with
Rice on January 25.
In the case of the families hold
ing two books (one for the hus
band and another for the wife) it
will be up to the head of that fam
ily to decide which one is to attend
the ball game since only odd num
bered books will be admitted.
The odd number rule will apply
on faculty books the same as on
student books so if your book ends
in an even number time and troub-

Saturday night in Dallas the
Aggie cagers were swamped by an
attack by the tall, experienced and
determined SMU Mustangs to the
tune of 68 to 35.
The two teams met on the floor
of Joe Perkins gym for the Ag
gies’ second and the Ponies’ first
conference game and the Mustangs
had things pretty much their own
way from the start and kept the
advantage. A crowd of some 2500
patrons witnessed the runaway
Ponies, featuring Bryan Lloyd,
Roy Pugh and J. C. Canady, drop
ped the ball through the loop time
and again to bring the scorse up
to 30-10 in their favor at half
time.
Bill Batey dropped a ringer
through the goal that put the Ags
in the lead for the only time dur
ing the game. They held the lead
for only about a minute before los
ing it. Tommy Tomlinson dropped
a ringer through a few seconds
later to again give the Ponies the
lead.
Fourteen of the points made by
Aggies were made in the last eight
minutes of play and it was Billy
Tumbow who sparked this attack
with a total of three field goals
and four free tosses for a tally of
ten points. Bill Batey came up
with six points and Don Voiding
made four.
O. U. Swimmers To

to advice from that city.
VA estimates the potential load
of women war veterans in the
United States at 350,000. As of

Before the largest crowd ever
to attend a basketball match in
Ft Worth the Aggie Cagers opened
their conference schedule with a
48-41 victory over the TCU Frogs
in the Will Rogers Coliseum. An
estimated 6500 were present.
This marked the opening of the
coliseum for cage tilts and was
the first game played on the new
hardwoods purchased by the city
of Fort Worth at a cost of $8,000.
The new floor was still slippery
putting both teams at a disadvan
tage but the play was nip and
tuck with the lead changing hands
some eleven times and being tied
on seven occasions. At the half
the Ags held an' 18-16 lead but the
Frogs took it over several times
early in the next half. With eight
minutes left to play the Cadets
held a two point margin the score
being 29-27. In the last three min
utes the margin had narrowed to
one point and the score was 40-39.
Bill Batey, one-handed loop ar
tist for the Farmers was display
ing good style and tallied 13 points
but Don Voiding, the 6’ 3” center
who joined the squad late. Void
ing was outstanding on the grid
iron at the end position during the
football season.
For the Frogs Wardynski was
the leading scorer with ten points.
Leroy Pasco, TCU’s fast moving
pointer was held to a total of four
points, two of which were from
free throws.
