McDowell’s Play
By HAROLD GANN
Basketball representatives from
A&M and Baylor will vie for su
premacy tonight on the hardwoods
of DeWare Field House in a game
that may well decide the outcome
of the Southwest Conference.
If the Bears get by the Aggies,
they will have smooth-sailing down
the home stretch, having played
Arkansas and A&M twice. Two of
their remaining games will be at
home against TCU and SMU, and
a couple will be on the road with
Rice and Texas—quintets that
have yet to prove their crown-cop
ping ability.
After tonight’s contest, the Ca
dets will find the going easier.
According to the records, their
toughest assignments will be to
dispose of Arkansas in Fayette
ville and TCU in Fort Worth.
Bears Seek Revenge
Coach Bill Henderson’s Bruins,
realizing that their game with
A&M tonight will be the last dif
ficult task to master, will enter
the i game with hopes of seeking
revenge against the i team that
tromped them in Waco a week
ago. L I’
After engaging ini rugged, ex
tensive drills on Monday and Wed
nesday, both teams tpok brief tun
ing-up exercises yesterday with'
the exception of onej player.
Jewell McDowell, A^M's stand
out guard and baskjetbaU’s attri
bute toward greater success,
could only go throuAd the motions.
McDowell is Ready
The court-sentinel was nursing
a muscle inflamation in his should
er. He became awarcj of the cramp
after aWakening Monday morn
ing, but did not report it to train
er Bill Dayton until Tuesday morn
ing, just before the team mounted!
a bus for Dallas.
Dayton had neitKer time nor
facilities to sufficicrjtly treat the
cramp before the fateful SMU
game. During the gaime, the Ania-
riloan couldn’t lift his arm above
his shoulder.
McDowell has beeh undergoing
treatments twice dally, and Day-
ton hinted yesterday that he would
be in good condition! for tonight’s
battle.
Winner Take All j
The winner of tonight’s contest;
will be alone in first position for
at least 24 hours. SMtT will pliy
host to 'Texas tomorrow and .if
the Mustangs win, they and the
winner of the Bear-Aggie tilt will
be tied for top position.
Reports from Waco indicate that!
Bill Srack, 5’ 9” senior guard, wfillj
be the Baylor stalwart: tonight.;
Jinx Tucker, sports editor of the
Tribune, claims that Srack is the
best ball-handler and sharpest 1
shooter among the Bears, and only
recently has been able to prove it
because of a slow start.
Whether Srack will be better
than all-conference Don Heathing-
ton, 6’ 3”, or 6’ 3” Bill Hickman
at the forward slots is a matter of
opinion.
Both Teams Determined
Odell Preston and Bill DeWitt;
both 6’3” senior guards, complete
the starting alignment.
Baylor is essentially a team
with no outstanding performers.
The starting five is composed of
game-sawy veterans who hold
three varsity letters. Their de
fense isn’t so effective with thej
belief {that “a good offense is the
best defense.”
“Baylorr will come to Aggieland
with great determination,” Coach
Marty Karow said yesterday;
“A&M will be just as determined;
We will have to play as good S
game as we’ve played all season.’;
Aggie fans would like to forget
the treacherous , encounter with
the red-hot Mustapgs Tuesday. A
victory over Baylor in DeWare—f
where a partisan, crowd might
stifle Baylor’s hopes of getting
hot—might cause the fans to for
get.

Gone SchiickeiV-rapidly recup
erating Fish basketball team will
meet the Baylor Cuba tonight in
DeWare Field House at 6 as a cur
tain for the scheduled conference
the two senior
game bctweeji
teams. .
Starting at center for the Fiah
will be Leroy Miksch, who hud a
sprained ankle in last week’s
game. Ample support will come
from Don Garrett, Max Montegut,
Don Heft, Wally Bleyl, and Jimmy
Velvin, from which the remainder
of the quintet will be chosen.
The Fish will lie probably be in
the’ best shape that they have seen
all 'year, having worked extra
hard this week with the intention
of upsetting coach Bill Mencfree’s
junior Bruins. Last week the Cubs
drubbed the Fish, 56-35.
The Cubs will come to ■ A&M
without their star of last week’s
game—Boland Ellcdgc— and Der-
rell Davis, high scorer .for the
Baylor fi cabmen who, at last re
port,-was laid . up with influenza.
Menefcee’s Cubs have a very im
pressive record for the year, 0-1,
while the Fish boast, only a -1-4
record; ’ ’
Tonight will see the Kish com
bining their greatly improved pass
ing with the sharp shooting ability
of Heft, together with Miksch’s
hackboaid play to try to outdis
tance the ('ubs at the beginning of;
the game. So fur this season, the
Fish have proved to he u second
half team. I » jj
