Shriners Form
4 Committees
For Fish Game
A meeting yesterday in
Bryan between the Brazos
Valley Shriners and the Aus
tin Shriners resulted in the
forming of four committees in
preparation for this season’s Ag
gie Pish and TU Shorthorn foot
ball game.
The game which is sponsored by
e Shriners with all proceeds go-
g to the Ben Hur Crippled Chil
dren’s Clinic at Austin, will be
the only major football game in
the state on November 23, Thanks
giving Day.
The site for the 4th annual game
between the teams since its re
beginning in ’47 will be Kyle Field.
It will be an afternoon game.
Oliver Wolfe of Austin, director
of this year’s game, said that he
hopes to break the attendance rec
ord for a freshman game which
was set last year in Memorial
Stadium when 16,000 fans saw the
Cadet Fish romp over the Short
horns, 13-0.
Also from Austin attending the
meeting were the Ben Hur Shriner
Recorder A. H. Swanson and A. F.
Jones. From the Brazos Valley
Ben Hur Shriners, Brint Morris
was chosen as an assistant chair
man and will appoint co-chairmen
for the four committees.
\ The committees cover the pro
gram and advertising, publicity,
ticket sales, and the game itself.
W. D. Dansby, president of the
^Bryan Shriners, and G. W. Schles-
Selman, chairman of the Brazos
Valley Crippled Childrens Clinic
Committee, also attended the meet
ing.

Managers Agree To
Heavyweight Fight
New York, Aug. 18—(A*)—Man
agers of Joe Louis and Ezzard
Charles agreed by phone today to
pit their respective battlers for
the world heavyweight champion
ship on Sept. 27 at Yankee Stadi
um.
Louis, the 36-year-old ring great
who surrendered the crown 18
months ago, will receive a fat 35
percent of the net receipts to ap
ply on his income tax argument
with Uncle Sam.
Charles, who won recognition in
47 states as the new champion by
outpointing Jersey Joe Walcott
last summer at Chicago, settled
for 20 percent.
It is not recorded than any
champion ever before accepted the
short end of the purse in a title
fight. Charles was not left with
much of a talking point after his
unimpressive 14-round victory over
Freddie Beshore Tuesday night in
Buffalo.
