The team’s last matches were with Abilctne Christian with the Ma roons winning, 5-1. Rice swept through the Cadet squad, 6-0, earlier in the SWC campaign, but as the-Owls have the most experienced quartet ir the circuit such a loss was far from a sign that the Aggies were weak. Both Teams Young A&M will be playing a team to morrow which is as young as th< local court sqtiad. Texas has foui sophomores on its team while the Aggies feature three sophomore: and a junior.

THE EXCHANGE V- -- ■ / % ' “Serving Texas Aggies” Not Well-Liked By Big Schools By WILBUR MARTIN Associated Press Staff alk of a new Class AAA Division for the Intercholas- tic League High School sports program is being heard again. The latest on the proposed new division was at a meeting of the athletic directors of the four Ctty Conference! members. Fort Worth is difinitely in favor of abolishing the City Conference. Dallas would kinda like to see it go by the boards. Houston and San Antonio are satisfied with the four-city league, but would go along on whatever plan is wojrked out. t Herman ; Clark, the a'thl rector for Fort Worth high in woefully unhappy with the City Conference. “It’s ruined un here,” said Her man. Hu was talking about faq, interest in high school sports which has fared badly in. Fort Worth since the City Conference was crc- ajted, . | | Clark win host for the City Con ference Basketball Tournament re- eentfy. Ho< dljd an excellent Job of presenting tjhe tournament. Th*j ligand of basketball waa—In the opinion of many Southwest Con- ffSrencc coaches—better than'' at tne^ three-dlyi»lon stath tourna- ment at Justin; Attendance Down But less than 5,000 persons at tended the two day tournament, A| total bf 42,000 turned out at Austin in tli ree days. [Clark would like to see the bas ketball tournament] held in-, Aus tin each year-—if the City Confer- Chce contmu js. / f “There’s no tr^ditionj behind it When you hold it in One town every four years,” he said. Why not, fie suggested, hold the Class B and. Class A tournaments at a certain time at Austin and the Class AA afltd City Conference at Another,? ,. The idea 1 for the Class AAA division wot Id be to limit it to Reboots with; 750 enrollment or more. -That wou d include practically aff of the members of the City Conference, plus such schools as Amarillo, Corpus Christi, Austin, Waco, Odessa and others.
