Aggies clash with the Longhorns in the r traditional
grid battla, twelve Aggies will end heir college
football careers. Seven of these gridsU rs will hav<
completed all of their eligibility at Ag^ieland while
the remaining five'still have another jear, but are
scheduled to graduate before the ’48 season rolls
around.
Five of these men, who will be fi nshing their
football careers for the Maroon and d /bite, are in
the present Aggie starting line-up while the other
seven are iinportant cogs in the Farn er grid ma
chine. It is estimated that this is the jreatest loss
any Aggie team has suffered by gra< nation since
1940 when John Kimbrough, Jim Tho nason & Co.
bowed out.
Two of these Aggies, (Bob Gary and Norton
Higgins) are vying for their fourth \arsity letter,
a feat that; became possible when Fr ?shmen were
made eligible for varsity football in'Id 3, Ed Dusek,
Barney Welch, s and Bob Tulis will have each won
three varsity letters and one Freshpian numeral
which is the maximum under the oldj rule that is
now back in effect. v

up for graduation in the spring but may possibly

ROB CARY, center, won a starting berth at
pivot last year and has kept it all tb s Season. Re
putedly one of the best, if not THE hi st line-backer
in the conference, the 184-pound Dalit site will have
earned his fourth football varsity let er at the end
of this season. Strangely enough, Gary didn’t play
football hack in, Highland park but used his energy
twirling the baton (while Doak Walker and Bobby
Layne took grid hemors.
, ROBERT (BLOODY) TULIS. 214-pouiid left
tackle from Fort Wortjh, will take hi; thirdjvarsitjy
letter in 'football thisi season. Earning th§ name
of Bloody, tne; 26-year old senior well qn to fill the
spot when* thj* A&M team was'weaki‘St,,this season
.in depth. Playing a good share of oaili -game, Tulis
won and kept: a starting berth on this year’s squad
to paiir off with Jim Winkler and keep tackle from
being actually the weakest position.
NORTON’ (COUNTRY) HIGGINS. Starting
l ight end from Galveston, will he out for his third
varsi y football letter (his year. The jl9t!-pound, five
foot, leleveh’inch lineman hiijs dcvelojjed, into an out-
