Star Of The Week
Bab Fretz Picked
Last Star of Week
(Editor’s Note: This in the last
selection of the Bait Sports Staff
for this semester.)
This week the Batt Sports Staff
has chosen. Bob Frets as Star of
the Week. The Aggie hurlcr and
right fielder, who hails from Hous
ton, Was picked for the brilliant
mound duty against Texas when
the Farmers turned back the Long
horn nine 6-1.
Frets allowed the Steers only
one run and five scattered hits in
notching hi's fifth straight confer
ence victory. In addition, to his
fine mound duty, he aided his own
cause by, driving in three runs
in the seventh inning with a homer
over the left field fence.
1 i ■ ! i ■ j K
In his next to lust conte.it the
Aggie hurier kept the Longfiorn’s
top hitter Tom Hamilton Mtlcss.
The Steer’s first sacker collected
only one hit in the two game series
between the two teams.
Fretz finished his baseball ca
reer at A(feM Tuesday as hei hurl
ed the Aggies to a 2-1 wiri over
the Rice Owls for his sixth con
ference win against no lossep. The
Cadet mound star allowed thti Owls
only five hits and Collected tjwo of
the Aggies’ six hits.
The Houston star, who has the
best pitching record in the South
west Conference this season, is a
likely choice for all-conference
honors this year.

J. D. Hampton and Herring will
both return for another year of
competition. That should be suffi
cient to take care of the two dis
tance events, but in addition the
team will have Jerry Bomien re
turning for bis last year, togethei
with some possible reinforcements
from, the ineligible squad.
Duel In Hurdles
With Augie Erfurth of Rice and
Jim Rowland/ of SMU [finishing
their collegiate eligibility, the high
hurdles are likely to becoijne a duel
between BUI Howton of [Rice and
Paul Leming of A&M. This event,
where the Farmers didn’t make a
point in the conference [meet in
Arkanaus, might be their strongest
event in years to come. Leming will
have to hold off the very fk»t How-
ton, who has the psychological ad
vantage of being the umjerdog.
Howton will also have the coach
ing of Freddy Wolcott, the great
est hurdler in the history of the
Southwest Conference. So It looks
like a tight duel between Leming
and Howton, with the i Mssibility
of Cleburne Price of HMlIipushing
the other two out next year.
Hall and Leming should team
with Billy Bless to give the Aggies
at least three place in the 220 yard
ow hurdle#. Bless in the national
record holder in the 200 yard lows.
George Kadera will return to
give the Aggies a base to build
their weight strength on in 1960.
George is almost cinch‘to take
:'irst in the discus and shot unless
le has another off day as He did
at the conference meet this j year.
5d Hooker is another disriri man
of promise.
Bob Smith, of the Aggie footbali
squad, is a candidate for points
in the shot and also the javelin.
Smith might be the sought after
javelin man. He has little experi
ence at this event, but his early
throws are very promising.
Two fellows named Hertry will
form the core of; the Aggie broad
jump strength next year, pill and
John Henry are not likely to im
prove enough to overtake Price of
A&M, but one is almost certain
to place in every meet nepet year.
Bill so far has made the best leap.
Don Graves and Buddy Davis
/vilkbe the two leading Aggies in
the High jump. Both are sopho
mores and might reach six eight
during the next season.
•Tack Simpson, Johnny Davis,
and Graves will be the top Aggie
entrants in the pole vault. Some
observers are predicting that Simp
son -will clear 14 feet before he
finishes his last two yearsj of col
lege competition. Graven is fairly

That just about sums up the
prospects for a successful track

Something might happen so that

that can never be accounted for.
