The undefeated Aggie Wat-' ■
er Polq Team will take to the
. water againat outside compe
tition for the first time this
season when it meets the Uhi-
vmity Aquatic Club, better known
as the Tewe University team, in
Austin Thursday night. Texas has
never defeated A AM in this eport.
This year will mark the fifteenth
[season of competition foir Aggie
Coach Art Adamson’s team. In
"those fifteen . seasons, Adamson’s
teams Have never lost a game to a
team from another Southwest Con
ference school and only twice have
they mot defeat at all,
In 2938, the national champion
Northwestern team outscored the
Farmer tankmen and in 1940, the
University of Illinois slipped by
them for a win. These are the only
two collegiate teams which have
defeated Aggie water polo teams
in the history of the sport at A&M.
Not Recognizedi
- -Water polo has yet to be recog
nized as a conference sport by
the Southwest Conference commit
tee and at present is being carried
on by only three of the Conference
schools, A&M, Texas, and Baylor.
This is the first of two games
scheduled between A&M and Texas
teams. A return match will be
played in Downs Natatorium on
November 22nd.
These two matches will decide the
unofficial championship between
A&M and Texas.
The Aggies team this year is
made up to two seniors and sfive
sophomores. As the roster stands
now, Fleming, Karow, Adamson,
McKinsie, Comstock, Ellis, and Sar
gent will get Adamson’s nod to
staft against the. Texas team to
morrow night.
Tha Texas team this year is
made up of graduate as well as
undergraduate students. Coach Tex
Robertton of Texas even plans to
use as one of his team members,
Bob Tarlton, conference b a ck -
stroke champion back in 1938.'
The probable starting team for
• Texas tomorrow night will be Hill,
Smith, Wilson, Anderson, Pryer,
f Tolar, and Tarlton.

Why don’t the little guys ever
»t chance to achieve conference
recognition ?
The answer to this oft! asked
question should be—“They; will"
-f-now that the Sports Association
for Men has been created. This as
sociation has been contemplated
for a year, but it wasn’t until
October 18 that the intramural di
rectors of the various SWC schools
[ot together for a discussion here
College Station and made tenta
tive plans for competition between
tne loop. schools in recreational
arts.
The association’s purpose is to
promote interest and participation
in non-intercollegiate sports at the
colleges and to secure extra-mural
dompetition.
[i Club-Sponsored Sports
The association is made up of
jubs, one for each sport. Includ-
d are the team sports of softball,
blleyball, soccer, hatidball, bad-
inton, squash, bowling, weight
[ifting, wrestling, and tumbling,
he billiards clubs at thedifferent
L’hools are being organized and
he game of pocket billiards will
e included.
Interest in the extra-mural ath-
tics has spread to most confer-
Ince schools; and there is a possi-
ility of determining conference
ihampions in the sports.
Interest came to a focus when
the 24 leaders of physical educa
tion met last month. All seven
schools in the conference indicated
would like to be includ-
the program.
Whitaker Leads Talks
Berry Whitaker, Director o^ In-
Jramural Athletics at Texas, led
ihe discussion vhen . the leaders
met in October; Although the
group took no formal action, the
representative seemed to be in
general agreement on the follow
ing points:
1. That a great need definitely
jexists in the field between Intra
mural sports and intercollegiate
athletics. .•
2. That activities in this field
include badminton, bowling, gym
nastics, handball, softball, table
tennis, volleyball, water polo,
weight lifting and probably others.
3. That competition in these
sports, between the schools in the
conference, 1 was not only highly
desirable but entirely feasible
both on a tournament and on a
home and Home basis.
4. That live must guard against
the ever present jiossibility of
lover epiphasis. j “
That a proper balance would lie to
pay for th£ transportation of the
club on a basts]ofor 6>- per car,
per mile, where/funds are avail
able, hut not to attempt, to pay
for meals and/lodgings of, the par
ticipants.
(5. That/the*,following tentative
irnotVr wnlwxl 111 *i iw> IttV
ring Day game with Texas
liversity. it has been decided that
tomorrow night would be a more
advantageous time in which to
ht ld the meeting. . j
Stiteler’s talk tomorrow night
will be on the Aggies’ chance
qgainst the Steers Thanksgiving
y and upon the prospects of the
950 Aggie eleven.

ght’s program will be the show

Meet Saturday
The two most prolific fresh
man scoring teams in the
Southwest Conference, the
Shorthorns of University of
Texas and the Aggie Fish of
Texas A&M, will get together in
Austin Saturday afternoon.
And a check qf the two teams’
record indicates that the real win-
ners will’ be the fans who turn
but for the football battle and the
Crippled Children’s Hospital, which
will get proceeds froYn the gate.
An offensive battle is in the
offing.
These two clubs have a lot in
common. They each have 2-2 rec
ords. They each were nosed out by
the TCU Wogs and they each whip
ped the Rice Fish soundly. The
Shorthorns have rolled up 12
touchdowns and the Aggie Fish
have tallied ten TDs.
The Aggie Fish have been an
unpredictable club. They beat
Weatherford JC, 28-13; muffed
four scoring opportunities and fell
to Baylor’s Cubs, 0-13; were nosed
out by the TCU Wogs, 21-19, then
thrashed the Rice Owlets, 20-0.
Most observers agreed that the
Aggie Fish played their best game
of the seaosn last week against
Rice, and if they can take it from
there, the charges of Coaches Mar
ion Pugh and Milton Routt should
give the star-studded Shorthorn
crew quite a jtussle come Satur
day.
guard, wjerq all con
sidered for the award.’
Molbcrg, if he keeps gaining
lit
■b his present rate, will noon' jump
to the monstrous class.
Molberg, junior business major
from Fredericksburg, Weighed 186
pounds his senior year in high
school. His first season at A&M
with the Fish in 1947 the /cales
read 180 when Molberg looked a
second time. Then, at the beginning
of last season he jumped up an
other ten pounds. Now the five
foot, eleven Incher tips the scales'
at 195.
Leading his team from the full
back slot in high school, : Mol
berg powered his way into an all
district berth three consecutive
years and AH-Central Texas his
third season.
South All-Star
However,
la player sa
it was felt-Uhat where
w a great; deal of ac
tion on both offense and defense,
he merited an edge over the solely
offensive or defensive performer.
Copeland during the Second and
third quarters was in the game all
iof the time. He entered the game.
the first time the Ags had the
ball on the attack. T
The 176-pound former Waco Ti
ger patrolled his end of the line
on defense 'like a bearcat—in fact,
the terminal play of Copeland and
ton Was!
Barton was| the best defensive work
the Aggies have had ii| some time.
On the offense Copeland teamed
with Wray I Whittaker to catch the
areials tossed by Gardemal, Cash-
iop, and Nicholas for good yardage.
The Wacogn gained 34 yards on
four receptions of tosses.
While a freshman Copeland
started fori the Fish, and last year
as a varsity end he won consider-
lahle recognition among sports ob
servers: He was nominated for
Southwfeste|rn Lineman jof the Week
and also for the weekly national
line award on the basis of his
play against TCU. i
Besides Jbeing listed as one of
the outstanding sophomores of the
year in a national poll, Copeland
received honorable mention on the
United Press All-SWC selection in
’48- | ! ? .
He teamed with Kyle Rote, Ver
non Glass, and Sonny Wyatt in the
North-South game in ’47, being
picked on the All-Star squad that
year. In the same game, playing
for the North, were Shug Mc
Pherson, ’47 Fish quarterback star,
and Dorbandt aBrton, Aggie end
who played a whale of a defensive
game against the Owls last Sat
urday. ' I !' . J' j .
Molberg says the toughest team
the Aggies have met this Reason
was Oklahoma, despite the accred-
itablc performance by the Farmers
against the Sooners. He classifies
Rice as the secoqd'strongest team.
“They really hit hard,” said Mol
berg.

has started every game this season,

CARL MOLBERG

When asked if his folks keep up
with the Aggies, Molberg quickly
replied, “Dad and Mom neverNiss

his son in action owe tipie in Texas
since his college career began In
