Mile Relay i A SiM’s mile relay, composed of Buddy Shacffer, Doh Cardon, Ber nard Place, and Dop “Jose" Mitch ell will ' be back to defend its title, won last year in 1 3:17.3. The 1948 .Aggie mile relayers hold the present record of 3:17.2. Rice Will be favored to take this everjt tomorrow, however, and if they do, it will mark the^fend of a five-year reign held by tpe Ma roon and White trackmen, unde- lisated since 1944 in that event. Team to wa.tch in the relays will be the Aggie four-mile relay. Con sisting of Jib McMahon, John Gar- many, Julian Herring, and’ J. D. "Hampton, the foursome stand a “good chance of a win and a record. Four-Milcrs Tops Hampton, Herrings, and Gar- rhany finished in' that order in the mile run in every meet this year and,. together with McMahon, a fine two-njiler, should have, the best four-mile relay teamj in the nation. Hampton has. run a, 4:17 jnile and, Herring had a 4:19 last year. /r The Texas Relays record calls for a little under a 4^25 average, which they ‘should . surely meet, while- it is very possible that the Aggies could average under 4.20 apiyer and break the national rec- prd_ in this event.

Baylor has' stacked up a re spectable 6-0 season record, with the last three games in conference play. The Rice Owls kind BMU’s Mustangs have gone down before Bruin onslaughts, with the Hous ton school getting a bitter taste of defeat twice. Pitcher Unknown ‘‘I may just toss a coin,” Coach Marty Karow said in reply to a query on tomorrow’s' starting pitcher for the Cadets. All of the Aggie hurlers have proved incon sistent thus far in the Season, although George Brown and Sam Blanton seem the most; reliable. The Bears, on the * other hand, have a pitching staff cjuRy com parable in strength to Texas Uni versity's. Texas, NCAA 1949 champs, have the majority jof last year’s pitchers again id the line up.

Six Events Six events j comprise the JC- Freshman division in the annual Relays. They are the high jump, 120-yard high hurdles, sprint med ley relay, 440-yard relay, mile re lay,' 1 and 100-yard dash. Of these events, the Aggie Fish placed in all but one, the 100-yard dash last year. Dick Graves placed second in the high jump, and Paul Leming won the high hurdles.

Along With „— Robinson, who stop ped Rice with ortly three hits last Saturday, Burke and several oth ers will be depended on heavily for the Beai-s. j Hard Hitters Baylor’s hurlers will meet some of the hardest-shooting guns of the conference, however, in the Cadet lineup. With such hitters as Wally Moon, who has totaled five home runs this season, and big Bill “Shug” McPherson, now sporting a .567 average in 10 games, the Aggies will try to best Baylor with a fifevee offensive game. : j v ! 1 ; ■ j , uT Several other A&M players are hitting well, including Hank Can- delari, third baseman, with a .316 average.
