The Methodists nre well-fortified at ail ppsitfotu*.except center and blockihg/oack. They should have the best backfield in the confer ence. The line looks very good from guard on out. ? But at blocking back SMU will be using the man who was third in lipe last season; Bob Ramsey, the regula^ blocking back, finish ed. Howard Parker, who divided the time with him, became ineligi ble kcholastically and signed a pro contract. Francis Pulatjtie, who had been expected to work with Dave Moon at the spot, also has signed a pro contract and gone to the New York Giants. Fred Goodwin, who played be hind Cecil Sutphin and Lloyd Bax ter is back at center. On what can be developed to work with Moon and Goodwin will largely depend the changes of SMU In the conference race) 7 Blair Cherry was fortunate/ in one-sense at Texas last year. He managed to start the !shason with out being put On the spot as faw- orite. It’s different this time. Tex as is due to he the majority choice to win the title. Surprisingly, Rice is rated vir tually even with Texas. Riee lost a lot of good footballers but it still has Tobin Rote, the Sparkplug of a fine finish last season. Alftfit has Joe Watson, a magnificent center. And it has the advantage —a big advantage, too— iij the sf’hpflulp The Owls play Texas, Sriuth- ern Methodist and Texas Chris tian all at Houston. Those arc considered the three toughest teams in the conference other | than Ripe. And some say Rice also has a strong ally in Hous ton humidity. Arkansas appears to be the mys tery team. Word from Fayette ville is that the Razdrbacks should be their strongest since John Barn hill came in as coach. Barnhill has been there three years and in 1946 tied for the title. However, it doesn't seem possible that Arkansas could have a line pis strong as last season. It. lost its/jstarting tackles among other stalwarts in that, forward Unjll. \ 1; Texas Christian probably would be favored had it retained all the men it finished with in a blaze of glory last season. The Frogs lost both tackles-— Weldon Edwards and ^Harold Kil- man, the former turning pro and the latter losing in a battle with the scholastics. It > also appears pre,tty certain of losing A1 Vaiani, a very fine back, who contracted polio this summer. He isn't likely to. play any football this year. All this summarizing leaves Baylor and Texas A&M to fight for the last two places in the conference race. But they could make trouble. Harry Stiteler of the Aggies looks atlit like this: “I think Bay lor and A&M arc going to have good ball clubs capable of win ning from any team on any given date, but of course! common sense says neither of ur should win or come close to it.” ^4. m a if) If Mfi * ssell of Bizzell and Arthur I i • J* •! if j l ' 1 it votes.
