I Battalion PORT MONDAY, MARCH 14, 1949 S Page 3 Maroons 41, Whites «0, In Spring Final By BILL POTTS In the last scrimmage game of spring football train ing, the Maroon squad defeated the White squad Saturday on Kyle Field, 41 to 0. Too much ability on the part of the Maroons was the difference as they scored five touchdowns from scrimmage and another on an intercepted^ pass. It was composed of the play- * ers most likely to earn a position on the starting lineup against Villanova next fall. Buddy Shaeffer’s attempts to kick the points after touchdown * Saturday were all successful ex cept one. Three men did the quarter- backing for both teams Saturday afternoon. Dick Gardemal and Delmar Sikes alternated at the man under position for the Ma roons while Jimmy Cashion did it all afternoon for the Whites. Missing at that position was Don Nicholas who has been mov ed, to an end position. John Christensen, the back that got to play in two games last fall * before his hard luck caught up with him, proved to be the high scorer of the afternoon. He scored the Maroon’s second touchdown, running the ball through left tac- * kle from the seven. To cop scoring honors for the afternoon, Christensen then inter cepted Jimmy Cashion’s pass in tended for end Charley Hodge and took it back all the way to paydirt from his own 47. At halftime, the Maroons were leading the Whites 27 to 0. Two of the Maroon’s touchdowns had been made by Christensen, one by Doyle Moore on a 22 yard run, and the other by Bob Smith on a plunge through the center from the two. “Little Moses” Lippmann start ed the scoring for the Maroons in the second stanza. Beginning on the White 23, he carried it four straight times, the climax coming when he scooted around right end for the marker from the 13. Guard A. J. Dugas provided Lippman with an assist on the play before when he recovered his fumble on the 13. Delmer Sikes provided the long est pass of the afternoon when he tossed one from his own 46 to end Dorbant Barton who romped on across for the score. Speed was the main feature of the White’s offensive game and mixed in with it were some ex ceptional receptions by the ends. Charlie Royalty and Carl Holl- ier put the scares into the Ma roon linemen with their dazzling speed. June Clark and Royalty teamed up at safety for the Whites but were never able to get back all the way with a punt return. The White’s deepest offensive thrust came in the middle of the third quarter when Carl Hollier caught Jimmy Cashion’s pass on the Maroon 11 yard line. Hollier fumbled on the next play though, and the Marons took over. Buddy Shaeffer took scoring honors for the three spring games played. He scored two touchdowns and kicked 13 extra points for a total of 25. Glenn Lippman was second with four TD’s for a total of 24.

It will be sponsored by three Texas chapters of the American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers, the Shreve port chapter, and the air condit ioning and related industries of Texas, O’Bannon said. The opening day of Intramurals found these two counterpunchers mixing it up in the ring. On the left, Edwards of “A” Air Force, throws a left to the head of Gebert, CWS, and takes a left to the body in return. Gebert went on to win the 149 pound bout. Aggies Open Season With 6-0 Victory Over UH Baseballers By SACK SPOEDE Coach Marty Karow’s Texas Ag gie baseball squad opened their 1949 season with a 6-0 victory over the University of Houston Cougars Saturday afternoon on the Kyle Field diamond. Three pitchers shared the mound duties for the Aggies. Cotton Lindloff, the second Ca det to step to the platq, got the first hit of the season for the Maroon and White team. He placed a sharply hit single over the first baseman. It was not until the second in ning that the Aggies got the scoring underway. Left hand bat ter Wally Moon started the ball rolling when he laid one of the offerings of Cougar pitcher John Boon down the left field out- of-bounds stripe and went to second, and then went to third on Bill Warriner’s fly to right field. Coach Marty Karow had placed him. Pat Hubert started on the mound for the Farmer team and except for a little wildness, seemed in good shape. He was relieved by Bruce Morrisse. Morrisse handled the throw ing duties for the fourth, fifth, and sixth innings without allow ing a hit. He had everything while in the box and proceeded to show it to the Houston team. The wrong-hander shows plenty of promise for this year. Veteran Bobby Fretz finished the game. One of the more evident things to be,/ seen at the game was the fact that Aggie team was hinder ed by the lack of time and good weather in getting ready for the game; This year the Aggie team might not be as powerful at the bat as last year, but in speed and field- After first-bagger Herschel Mal- tz grounded out to short, Moon stole home before the surprised Houston pitcher realized what had happened. Pinch hitter Hollis Baker scor ed again the next inning for the Aggies. Batting for pitcher Pat Hubert, Baker was given a walk by the Cougar pitcher. He went to second when right fielder Felix Fraga dropped Russ May’s fly ball, took third on Guy Wal lace’s long fly to center, and came home on a wild pitch. Wally Moon scored again in the sixth inning after he singled and went to second on a hit and run play. After going to third on a pitch the Houston catcher let es cape, he scored on John DeWitt’s double to center field. Bill McPherson ended the scor ing for the day when he pasted one of the offerings of relief pitcher Bob Hollman over the center field fehce with Russ Mays on base. McPherson thus went a long way toward prov ing that he was capable of man ning the clean-up spot in which Red Cross Drive’s Goal is 60 Million The annual Red Cross drive be gan last Tuesday with sixty mil lion dollars as the national goal. In this area letters will be sent instead of using door-to-door can vasses, Dan Russell, of the Agri cultural Economics and Rural So ciology Departments', reported.

Main Bryan Steers Stop Aggies In Border Olympics 58-55 By HAROLD V. RATLIFF LAREDO, Texas, March 12 —(A*) The University of Texas dethron ed Texas A&M as champion of the Border Olympics tonight, winning the seventeenth annual running of the track and field carnival, 58 points to 55. Oklahoma A&M finished third in the university division with 31 points while Rice and Southern Methodist tied for fourth with 14 each. J. D. Hampton, slender Texas A&M runner, performed the un usual feat of breaking records in both long distance races—the mile and two mile—in a track and field meet. Hampton featured the Border Olympics as he raced the mile in 4:18.7 and the two-mile in 9:36.0. The latter cut more than a second from the record of 9:37.3 set last year by Jerry Thompson of Texas. Five records fell and two were tied as Texas and Texas A&M waged a tight duel for the Border Olympics Title. Ray Holbrook of Texas A&M sped 440 yards in 48 seconds to crack the Border Olympics rec ord of 49.2 set in 1947 by Art Harnden of Texas A&M. Park er won the 100-yard dash in 9.7 and then broke his own record of 21.3 in the 220-yard dash, set last year, by running that event in 21.1. The last record to fall was the last event—the mile relay. Texas A&M erased its own mark of 3:- 19.6 by doing the distance in 3:- 17.1. With a team of Carroll Lud- wick, Don Mitchell, Erwin Bilder- back and Holbrook. Robertson broke the broad jump record in the preliminaries when he leaped 23 feet 6% inches. He held the record himself at 23 feet Boxers Open Up For KO’s, TKO’s In Slugging Spree Knock-outs and TKO’s predomi nated the Intramural Boxing bouts Friday afternoon.

The Texas 440-yard relay team tied its record of 42.2 set in 1947. Second high point man in the university division was George Kadera of Texas A&M with 12. He won the shot and discus and was third in the javelin. John Rowland, tall Southern Methodist hurdler, cracked the 220 yard low hurdles standard with a time of 23.6 and also tied the rec ord for the high hurdles in 14.3. The latter however, was set in the preliminaries. Rowland won the finals in 14.5. The 220 yard hurdles record was 24 flat, set in 1946 by Ralph Tate of Oklahoma A&M. The high hurdles mark tied by rowland was made in 1939 by Fred Wolcott. John Robertson and Charley Parker led the Longhorns to their triumph as seven records fell and two were tied in the university di vision. Robertson was high point man with 12 !4 and P'arker turned in ll'A as both figured in the rec- Ex Pro Cage Great Emphasizes Hustle SARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y.— Huge, soft-spoken Dutch Dehnert, the gent basketball can thank for the revolutionary pivot play, has a couple of other suggestions for the improvement of the game. The ex-Original Celtic ace, who romped the boards with such court greats as Nat Holman, coach of CONY, and Joe Lapchick, of the New Yoi’k Knicks, vigorously con tends there is one major change to make and some hustling to do if basketball is to reach even greater heights and stay there. Dehnert believes basketball “goons” should be made to show their worthiness through all- around play rather than mere phy sical stature. “When I planned the pivot play, I planned it for use at various spots on the court,” says Dehnert. “Today, they put a big fellow close to the basket and because of his height there is nothing a smaller guy can do except foul him.” • Either widen the foul lane a couple of feet, suggests Dutch, or create a half circle from the end of the court big enough to keep these big fellows from simply turn ing around, feinting a bit and drop ping them in. Widening the lane already has been suggested in some circles but has not met with much support. However, Dehnert’s suggestion of a half circle is something else, and with a three-second rule in force there, it could cause the pivot man to do some tall stepping. “Getting the big men to hustle is not the only thing that would be done with a wider foul lane or a half-circle,” claims Dutch. “It would open up the game more in stead of presenting a set pattern revolving around a tall pivot man. You’d see plenty of action and better basketball.” Dehnert also warns that unless top-flight pi’o cage teams look to the future, they will be running out of material. The George Mi- kans and Joe Fulks don’t pop up very often, but there are many who could be groomed into stars with seasoning. Dutch contends that when the present stars burn out, the talent that moves into their shoes has got to be just as colorful or else pro ball will suffer at the ticket window. Dutch believes the clubs that establish a back-log of stars through a farm system will wear the crowns and count the cash. AGGIE FENCERS WIN The Baylor fencing team lost two of three bouts Saturday after noon in an unofficial clash with the A&M squad in the Rena Marrs McLean Gymnasium. Baylor bowed to the Aggie team in the foilfest, 7-2, and in the sa ber bout, 8-1. The epee bout was won by Baylor, 5-4. The Philadelphia Eagles have won five of the last six games played against the Washington Redskins. WATCH REPAIR At Its Best! OUR WATCH REPAIR Cost no more than ordinary watch repair R. L.
