Last season’s fish nine split the
series with the Shorthorns. The
Fish took the first win at Austifl,
10-5, but when the Texans engaged
the freshmen on Kyle Field, they
were victorious, 4-1.
Three hurlers
Three good pitchers, together
with the consistent hitting of the
freshmen has been the main fac
tor in the previous three games
that the Cadets have won. Along
With Brinkley, Coach Shoemaker
has from time to time called on
Clifford Ohr and Bill Stirling to
pitch for the first year team, arid
with good results.
Charley Russell is the heavy
hitter on the team and is battin;

The Aggie baseball games with
SlfU in Dallas today and tomor
row have been postponed because
of consistent rain, according to
Coach Marty Karow.
The two gamea with SMU now
are scheduled for Tuesday^ and
Wednesday of next week, accord
ing to Karow. Both are set to be
gin at 2:30 p.m.
Mathematical Chance
The Aggies 1 have a fair chance
of jumping back into a tie with
top running Texas—if A&M sweeps
the SMU series arid Baylor upsets
the Longhorns in Wsco tomorrow.
Both SMU and A AM are de
finitely on the downgrade, after
enjoying successful pre-season ef-
ficiency. The Aggies have dropped
three of their last four games.
The Ponies haven’t won ,in four
loop starts, losing to Bayldr, TCU,
and Texas. - |
The Cadets have been founding
the ball freely with Wally Moon,
Shug McPherson, and John De
Witt, turning ii; heavy stick-work.
Why Pitchers Failed
Inconsistent pitching has been
the main Aggie weakness. Why ?
As i the season got underway this
year. Coach Karow was confront
ed with the difficult problem of se
lecting two or three hurlers to
carry the burden during the con
ference grind.
Because many of the promising
moundsmen were untried in varsity
competition, and because there was
an abundant array of candidates
on hand, Karow used as many as
four per game in order to get an
