Everyone, and everything from
head football coach Harry Stiteler
to the NCAA Sanity Code came
under the humorous fire Of the
El Paso grid tutor. He drew a
round of laughter when he ex-,
plained hoW Aggie athletes got
around the NCAA requirement of
receiving only one free meal a day
from the school: “They just eat
from eight in the morning to six
in the evening—just one big meal!”
Molberg Named Most Valuable
Carl Molberg, aggressive junior
guard from FredrickSburg, was
awarded the Lipscomb-Colson
Most Valuable Player Award dur
ing the program. W. jN. “Flop”
Colson made the preseritation.
Molberg's running mate, guard
Max Greiner, was honclred by be
ing named to receive the Bert Pfaff
Best Blocker Award. Coach Stite
ler presented the award to the
Beaumont three-year letterman.
Lipscomb-Colson pen and pencil
sets wore given the 1049 co-cap-
stains, Wray Whittaker and Bob
by Goff. Whittaker, former Jeff
Davis (Houston) end star, and
Goff, power back from Kenedy,
completed their careers as Cadet
gridstera during the past cam-
paign. i
Lotto,rmen Presented Medals
The only other non-returning let-
terrnen arc backi D0n Nicholas
and Jim Cashion, guard Dick Scott,
and linebacker Dick CWIender. The
entire group of 35 football letter-
mein were! presented with their “T"
medals and bars by Aggie Sweet
heart Jcannine Holland.
Freshman coach Marion Pugh
introduced the freshman football
numeral winners, • Toastmaster
Howard Jones, executive secretary
of San Antonio Chamber of Com
merce, eyoked envious whistles
when he told’of reading recently
that Georgia Lee. a Powers model
from Santone who has won the
title of "Sweater Girl of ’49”, says
that her heart belongs to Dick
Self, one of the Fish gridmen.
Harriers Honored
Miss Holland, besides assisting
D. W. Williams, Athletic Council
chairman, to present awards to the
football players, helped President
elect M. T. Harrington award med
als to the cross country runhers.
Captain Julian Herring, Jerry
Bonnen, Howard Jones, John Gar-
many, Jim McMahon, and Alexan
der Ortiz were the members of the
Conference championship harrier
equad who won letters.
The crowd of several hundred
Aggie followers who attended the
banquet were entertained with sev
eral numbers sung by Buddy Boyd
and Gloria Martin during the evem
ing's program. Leonard Perkins
accompanied the singers.
Four teams now share the lead
—Baylor, A&M, Arkansas,] snd
SMU. Each has / won three con
tests while dropping two. Texas
and TCU are tied for seco|nd with
2-2 records, and Rice is alone in
the cellar with a 1-5 slate. The
Rice loss to Baylor po.unded the
Owls deeper info the hole on Jan
uary 21.
Though the SWC is not consider
ed as one of the nation’s stronger
organizations this year. It is one
of the most interesting conferences
due to its highly competitive ac
tion.
Baylor Game Decisive
Friday’s game with Baylor will
virtually decide Cadet chances of
winning the flag race. The Aggies’
last championship came in 1923.
Their best mark was registered
in 1920 after taking 19 Straight
games without defeat.
Some hoop-happy fans of the
Bryan-College Station are claiming
that Coach Majrty Karow has as
sembled the bpst quintet in the
history of A&M.
The young Farmers have as good
a chance as any one to win the
conference, but they have a long,
tough road to trod. Five of A&M’s
remaining sevdn games are away
from home, and traveling teams
this year have turned in Relatively
poor records.
Coach Bill Henderson’s Bears
are double-tough to whip on their
home floor. They will depend hn
a recently installed fast break.
Captains "Lighting” Hickman and
Bill DeWitt, brother of "Long
John’’ mastermind the Bruin play.
This style of play successfully
destroyed Arkansas’ slow, deliber
ate ball-control game and enabled
the Bears to share with A&M the
honor of bowling over the confer
ence favorites.
Odell Preston, O' 3” rebounding
demon, and sparkplug Bill Brack
will be among the starting five.
Don Heathington has been favor
ing a twisted knee all season, but
he is expected to start the game.
A&M Tops oa Defense
The Aggies hold the best defen
sive record in the conference, al
lowing the opposition only 43.6
points per game. Lately Baylor
has sparkled defensively, indicating
a low-scoring game.
The Aggies have the two tallest
men on the court in 6’ 8” Walter
Davis and 6’ 5” John DeWitt but
the Bruins hold a slight edge in
overall height.
“We’ve got to play our best ball
of the season to beat Baylor on
their home court,” Karow said
Wednesday, j
The next Ag contest will be
against SMU in Dallas Tuesday,
night.
Aggie (Sweetheart Jeannine Hol

Max Greiner with the Beaumont
athlete’s third bar for his "T”
medal. Greiner waa awarded ihe
