True to past experiences our average on game predict
tions took a sudden drop lagt week-end but so did every o
er sports "authority’s” average. With Arkansas and LSU i^ot
content to just spill the dope bucket, but rather insisting
demolishing the mute, metalic objects we (the dope-s) w^re
left with only four correct fOre-t -
Cuts. ' s M
‘'However, despite bad'- micses on
thi^ Fayettevilie and Baton Roupe
contests, we drd do some accurate
calling on the rem lining four tilts
(We have to say something to buck

gins of victory for both the SMU
and Aggie tusslles . (1 and 20

po-
:iif-
nits
points respectively) were right
the nose.
Our margin in the Baylor
was a touchdown,: and the actual
margin was only a six-pointer plus
two^extra points. For the Steer
tato peel we called a 46 point
ferdneb and actually |4!) poi

Noti sensational calling, but c oSe

Sophomores To Play Big

By WILBUR MARTIN
AP Staff Writer
Don’t disregard the young-

You may find one or more
sophomores on the All-South-
wdst Conference football team
this year.
That’s a large statement, ■ but
thpre’s a large crop of flashy Hint
yegr varsity players.
To name a few:
Paul Williams, Joe Arnold and
Byron Townsend of the Univer

Bob Smith and Boh Shaeffer of

Most of Southern Methodist’s
better sophomores are hacks—

tee _
The University of Texas and
iA. and M. are depending
more on sophomores than the
other schools1\
Sophomore stkrs are not unusual
in the southwcsV Conference, but
this season there seems to be more
than the usual number.

Sophomores played a prominent
