All of the Cadet straight-ball throwers came away con vinced of the superfority of the hook ball, for the Texans gave a thorough three-hour short course in its effectiveness. The Aggie second team especial-4- ly got an unpleasant taste of Long horn tea. They thought it was luck When the hosts’ second team aver aged 178 in theiri first line, but when they averaged 187 and 182 in their next two* games, the Ag gies were convinced that they should have stayed at home. Out of the nine team, doubles and singles matches, A&M took only two. And;it took the third team to do.lt. Of the 24 lines bowled by each tratti; Texas had 18 scores above SOU,, while A&M hud only seven. ( < Bill Andrews of TU iook indi vidual honors with a 810 total, The Largest . . .

Floyd Henk led • the Farmers with a 549 series in the team match and a 517 in doubles play. Next on the list was Bubba Will iamson with a [491 and a 520. Henk will receive a free enchillada din ner ,from Smitty’s Cafe, North Gate. Harris Cox won the potato chips 'with the low game of the match. The University’s supply of lp>od bowlers seemed to diminish with the second team, for the Aggies third team composed of Harris Cox, Brad Holmes, Art Howard, Larry Bernhardt, and Jay Cavall outpointed the Texans two out of three games and won on total pins for A&M’s lone three points.' . A&M’s top squad of Wall Dixon, Bubbu Williamson, Ray Lyon, Bfb Williams, and M. L. Lunccford had tough going against*the TU shdig shooters who averaged 178. Claude Lee and Bill Klabunde, two of A &M’s first team members, were absent because of pressing school work. The Aggies’ second team of Fred Wilson, Emmett Trant, Floyd e enk, R. L. McClure, and Marvin agemeier averaged 161 fob their three tines, but ran into a hot score from their opponents. ?V ★ One of the most interesting single matci Aggie R. L. McClure ahd Long horn Elbert Weaver. McClure took a 27-point deficit on the first game, bat gained 11 of them back on the second line. He needed a strike on his last ball to win, but he missed the head- pin for a seven, three pins shy of Weaver. Another close match was staged between Ray Lyon and Steer team captain John Fox, Fox shot a blis tering 200 initial line to lead Lyon by i35 pins. But the Aggie came back with a 185 game to regain 15 of them. Then Fox outsteadied him and went on to win] Five Aggies broke “200” during the night. Henk hit 201, Bernhardt 207, Hagemeier 210, and Brad Holmes, 213. After their nerves recover from yesterday’s match, the Aggies will bowl the University of Houston early in April. j BRYAN SHOOTS 61 ’ Travis Bryan , of the Texas A&M golf team fired a nine-under-par 61 recently while qualifying for a place on the Aggies’ 1949 team.

Hauck had the Aggie betters his way until the fourth ng when they’ began to wear . out Rusty Meyee, third er, got the first Aggie hit with one straight through the box. Hauck, wary of Cotton Lindloffs power, walked him with four straight, then fanned Guy Wallace, shortstop, with a called third strike. Lanky John DeWiM then stepped up and surprised the stands with a single into left field, scoring Mayes for - the Aggies first ran. Wally Moon flied out, Bob Fretx was walked, and Bill Warriner struck out to finish the inning.
