This will give Aggie ln« juries time to heal before they venture ojtt again. Next week the Texas Relays will be held in Austin. This la ‘ not a meet In that no team wln> ncr is chosen. The only champ ions are the individual and relay team champs. Don Cnrdon, in jured when he hit the last hur dle in the 220 yard lows in the Fort Worth Recreation MeM,' might be able to go by the time the 7 Austin engagement rolls around. jj . b Arkansas will be| the host team in the conference meet this year. The meet will be held in Fayette ville. Thrilling meets of all time can be expected to be, unravelled up .im the Ozarks this spring. If either Texas or the Aggies are able to dominate the 880 yard run, that team that does so will probably win the Confer ence track and field flag. In Ft. Worth both teams lost about 7 points to the other that they normally would have had either due to the rules or to mishaps. A&M suffered because no' two mile eVent was held. In this event A&M should pick up seven points on the Steers. But the Longhorns should normally have won the 440 relay, if one of their sprinters had not pulled a leg muscle.; If they had there would have been a great er difference in the score.

All this totals up to 64 Mi points for Texas to 63V4 fbr A&M. That is so close that it proves that any thing can happen. Neither team can afford to slip in any of these events and winners of seconds, thirds and fourths will certainly determine the winner of the meet. A A Jinx Tucker, the venerable sports scribe of the Waco papers has predicted that the Aggie baselmU team will finish in fourth place in the conference race this year. Angies will re member Tucker as the writer who advocated the abolishment of track in the conference last year, after Baylolrv^s blanked in the conference meet. , This year he has placed Texas, Baylbij, and SMU ahead of the Aggies in the race, for the base ball crown, with TCU* and Rice battling it out for the cellar spot, Last year he madei somewhat the same forecast if t|he memory is right. Tucker places the reason that the Farmers will drop to fourth from the second spot they ended with Ian season On the lack of Aggie pitching.
