Two Aggie Players
Sign Professional
Baseball Contracts
• 1 :
Hopes of a baseball champion
ship for Texas A&M this year
suffered a hard jolt today when it
was announced that two Aggie
regulars, outfielder Stan Hollmig
and pitcher Earl Beesley, have
signed contracts -with the St. Louis
Cardinals of the National League.
Both players will be farmed out to
Rochester of the International
Loop, a Card farm club.
The loss of Beesley further
weakened the already shorthand-
ed Aggie mound staff. He was
expected to be the mainstay ofi.
the Cadet pitching corps this
season. The right hander was the
top Aggie hurier last year until
he hurt his arm. However, Bees
ley stated {hat the wing felt
much better this year and the
Card scouts believe he can hold
his own in faster company.
The absence of Hollmig .will leave
a big hole for Coach Marty Karow
to till in left field. The Hondo
slugger led conference hitters in
the home run department last sea-
, son and throw* with deadly ac
curacy. Hollmig can also handle
mound duties. :
When asked: why he was leav
ing Stan answered, “A&M coul$l
not match the St. Louis offer.”
Under a new conterence ruling,
collegiate players must have the
approval: of their school before the
professional teams will hire them.
A&M’s approval was given yester-
I clay at the meeting of the Athletic
Council. j • f I - 1
Silver Taps will be observed’to
night for Coach Marty Karbw.
