■J in 1943. Only three teams played j
I in competition that year. . . Rice,
Texas and A&M and the Aggies
i split the crown with the Long

! Pitching will be the main trou-
ble of the A&M nine this weekend.

I Earl Beesle'y on the mound Fri- i
day afternoon. Earl at the present
1 time has won six games and lost I
| two. He has pitched more innings j
of ball that any other hurler in the j
conference with sixty-five innings !
behind him.
For the second game with the
Longhorns, Karow will either
use Alvis Nixon, Bob Fretz or
Art Newman. Fretz has three
wins to his credit and Nixon
has one in !S»VC piay.
W'ith this pair of games, seven
Aggie player’s will end their col- ]
lege careers on the diamond. They j
are Earl Beesley, Pack Vass, Tex ;
