their last outing before the all important

This will be the setond dual track meet
between the two schools this season. The
Aggies, having won the first meet 72 to 50,
will be favored, to win ; but the improved
Longhorn squad could easily cop the meet
under certain conditions.
One of the conditions necessary for the
Steers to win is that John Robertson, Texas’
ace! broad jumper, be in top shape.

the Drake Relays, He has not jumped in
I competition since then.
If Robertson should not jump this Fri
day the Aggies will probably take first and
! second in the broad jump which will give
A&M the necessary margin to win.
In an effort to give everyone tm idea as
to how this dual meet will turnout! your re-
! porter has made his predictions as to the
! outcome of the meet. ^
The two biggest question marks" in
these predictions are: 1) Will Robertson
I enter and win the broad jump'! 2) Can
Webb Jay beat out Perry Samuels for
second place in the 100-yard dash"!
According to the following predictions,
if Robertson vvill NOT enter the broad jump
and Samuels will beat Jay in the 100, the
