It all started way back in 1M0
when fooball was at its peak at
Aggieland.
In 1939, the Aggies had finished
the season un
defeated and
untied with a
beautiful 21-0
victory aver
the Longhorns
at College Sta
tion. What a
wonder-
ful feeling
that must have
been! Not on
ly had they
been named
the best football team in the na
tion and finished the season with
a record of ten wins, no losses and
no tiee but also they had beaten
tho orange and white on Turkey
Dnar.
Then came the famine, and what
a famine! 1 It has lasted for sev
en long years and who knows when
it will ever end.
In November, 1940, It wa*. that
the black cloud of famine came
ir Aggieland and to thin day
that cloud has yet to move.
This is how’It came about Tho
Aggies were oa their way to an
other undefeated and untied i
eon, and all that remained waa to
beat a mediocre Texas University
team in Memorial Stadium. The
didn’t aound like too big an under
taking for John Kimbrough aad
Company, but it waa. The Ma
roon and White went down in de
feat 7-0, after playing one of their
greatest games.
Since that gloomy November day
in ’40, very few faithful Aggies
have been able to hold their heads
up without feeling as though some
thing is ladling—and rightfully ao
because something b Lacking —
Longhorn blood on the gridiron!
Everyone thought that ’41 would
be the year for revenge; then came
that horrible nightmare on Kyle
Field when Crain, Layden, and
Company walked over the Aggies
to the tune of 23-0. This marked
the first time that the Longhorns
had beaten the Aggies on Kyb
Field. ^
Bat this wasn't the ewo, not by
any means, as a matter of fact R
was only the beginning. It hap
pened again in ’42, ’43, ’44, ’46, and
again last year aa the famine con
tinued at its peak with the Aggies
bowing to the Longhorns in Me
morial Stadium 24-7.
“How long can It last?" b the
cry that we hear this summer at
Aggieland as the '47 football
son draws near. Can tkb be tbs
year to end this Jinx?
