By FRED WALKER inning 1 . It was very seldom that a
ball was thrown down the middle,
for Raschi had them slipping over
every corner.
The New York tally came in the
4th inning when Gerry Coleman
sent a long fly to left field to
score Bobby Brown. Brown had
opened the inning with a double—
the only extra base blow of the
game—and had gone to third on a
long fly by Hank Bauer.

Only 4 Hits
It was a heart-breaker for Kon
stanty who gave the Yanks only 4
hits in eight innings, (The fifth
Yank hit was off relieving pitcher
Russ Meyer.) all of which were
limited to one an inning. Though
credited with the loss, Konstanty
still demands a great amount of
respect and praise.
This was the first game he had
started since 1948 when he pitched
for Toronto. Three times the
Yanks had him on the ropes, two
on with no one out but failed to
bring a run across. Adding to his
moral victory was the fact that
he never allowed the vaunted “mid
dle” of the Yankee batting order—
the power hitters—Berra, DiMag-
gio, and Mize to get so much as a
scratch single.
Raschi Hero
But the Yank’s hero of the day
was still “Big Vic”. He retired 13
Phils in a row before he was
touched for those two hits. That
was all for the “Whiz Kids.” They
never had another base runner,
except Eddie Waitkus, who man
aged to work Raschi for the only
Philadelphia walk in the ninth.
Raschi struck out 5 and got one of
the five Yankee hits.
The Philadelphia crowd had a
short-lived moment of joy in the
eighth when pinch-hitter Dick
Whitman, who batted for Kon
stanty, sent a long drive into right
field, but at the last moment,
Bauer bounced against the balus
trade and hauled it down.
The tension hit the breaking
point in the ninth when, with two
down, Dick Sisler, who had knock
ed a three-run homer against
Brooklyn to salt away the pen
nant, stepped up to the plate.
Every Philadelphian had visions of
another game being saved, but
Raschi would not be denied and
Sisler went down swinging amid
the groans of thousands of fans.
Bear 0 U
Have you ever tried to stop 225 pounds
of charging fury? Or maybe you would like
to try to keep a rangy 6’ 3” end from reach
ing above you?
Those were the two biggest problems
facing the Texas Tech Raiders Sat
urday night in regard to Andy
“Jumbo” Hillhouse.
The spectacular performance
turned in by Hillhouse in last Sat
urday’s contest has won him the
title of LINEMAN OF THE
WEEK from the Battalion Sports
Staff.
If Hillhouse had done nothing
else after the second period, he
would still be unanimous for the
weekly honor for blocking the
Raider point after touchdown at
tempt that would have tied the
game at 14 all.
Feared by all opposing right
ends and their entire backfields,
Hillhouse repeatedly crashes
through defensive forward walls
to change potential scoring plays
into yardage losing chaos. Equally
important on Cadet pass plays,
he is to be seen time and again
towering head and shoulders above
a would-be defensive against Ag
gie aerials.
Third Top Scorer
At the present he is tied with
seven other SWC stars for third
place in conference scoring with
a total of 12 points. Hillhouse
amassed his 12 point total in
Alamo Stadium last week when
he snagged an eight yard toss
from the arm of Delmar Sikes for
the first score of the game. Again
in the final period Sikes found
him standing in the end zone and
connected with a 13 yard paydirt
aerial.
Ranking eighth in season stand
ings among the top ten SWC pass
receivers, Hillhouse has snagged
four passes for a total of 49 yards.
Hillhouse comes from Alvin and
was outstanding end on the Cadet
eleven in 1948. Although he didn’t
become a regular until mid-season,
Andy lead the team in blocked
punts and made sevex-al all-con
ference teams, not to mention being
named honorable mention on United
Press’ All-America team of ’48.
Should Hillhouse continue his
rough and rugged type of play
on the gridiron, he will undoubt
edly be one of the best ends in
the country.

. . . Sports Chatter
Things are definitely looking up
on the football field . . . John L.
Christensen has returned to scrim
mage practices and is looking as
good as ever . . . Dick Gardemal
replaced Delmar Sikes at the man-
under slot yesterday and seemed
to have improved considerably in
his ball handling, which was never
too bad . . . This means the Cadets
are set in QB spot . . .
Delmar missed most of practice
yesterday as he walked the field
most of the afternoon, favoring his
hurt ankle, but, according to
Trainer Bill Dayton, he will be
working with the team again to
day . . .
Moving back to John L. for a
moment, he, you may remember,
is the hard luck kid of the Aggies
. . . He has yet to complete a sea
son of football with the Cadet var
sity . . . Good Luck, John, you’ll
make it this time . . .
Speaking about hard luck . . .
Charley Royalty, who was definite
ly looking forward to the OU tilt,
like everyone else on the Maroon
and White eleven, will miss the
game because of a dislocated
shoulder . . .The hard luck moved
in this week during practice . . .
The backfield had been working
light most of the day, and when
the scrimmage started, everything
was still OK . . . Near the end of
practice, Charley was hit extra
hard on his shoulder which a few
years ago had been operated on,
and that did it . . . Charley will
be ready for SWC play.
Beat the Sooners
Considered by many as the nucleus of
the Aggie team against their first two op
ponents, Delmar Sikes has been duly named
BACK OF THE WEEK by the Battalion
Sports Staff.
Ranking as the No. 4 man for
the quarterback slot before the sea
son opened, Sikes has shown his
true prowess on the gridiron and
at present has a firm hold on the
No. 1 spot for the man-under posi
tion.
Sikes threw 14 passes in last
week’s contest and completed five
of these for 60 yards and two
touchdowns. He now ranks in
tenth place among the leading
passers in SWC play.

As Outstanding Back of Year . . .
Williams’ Top Choice
New York, Oct, 5—(A 5 )—Who do
you think will be the outstanding
backfield man in college football
this fall?
The nation’s sports winters and
broadcasters pondered that ques
tion and decided it would be Bob
Williams, Notre Dame’s quick
thinking, sharp-passing quarter
back.
It wasn’t an easy decision to
make in the Associated Press’ pre
season poll.
Williams barely won out in the
voting over Kyle Rote, Southern
Methodist’s 190-pound whiz who
almost fashioned Notre Dame’s
first defeat in four years last
December.
Halfback Johnny Karras, Illin
ois’ big ten ground gaining cham
pion, and Chuck Ortmann, Mich
igan’s splendid passing ace, fol
lowed in favor but it was mostly
a two-man race.
“Williams
Great...”
Williams, acclaimed by Coach
Frank Leahy as “as great a quar
terback as Notre Dame ever had,”
received 44 votes among the 109
cast. Rote, the Mustang’s triple
threat whirlwind, got 34.
Votes tapered off sharply from
the point with Karras receiving
cm by TECHNICOLOR
“ANNIE GET YOUR
GUN”
nine for third and Ortmann getting
five for fourth.
Leon Heath, Oklahoma’s 195-
pound fullback, followed with four.
Then came Billy Cox, the Duke
Sparkplug, with three, and Cor
nell’s Jeff Fleischmann and Iowa
State’s Bill Weeks, two each.
Williams is making Notre
Dame’s millions of alumni, offi
cial and other-wise, forget such
quarterback greats as Angelo Ber-
telli, Johnny Lujack and Frank
Tripucka.

A trigger-quick thinker, his
field generalship is credited with
helping extend the fighting Irish’s
unbeaten record to 39 games, long
est in modern football .
“ ... Brilliant Strategist ..
“He is a brilliant strategist,”
says Leahy. “You never know what
he is going to do.”
Williams’ pass to end Jim
Mutscheller in the last 2% min
utes gave the Irish a 14-7 victory
last week over North Carolina.
Bob is a 20-year-old senior from
Baltimore who earned ten letters
at Loyola High School there. He
is a six-foot-one, 180-pounder who
is both an excellent passer and
dangerous runner.
Last year he completed 83 passes
in 147 attempts for 1,374 yards.
Rote, also a terror as a thrower
and ball-carrier, is rated one of
the greatest backs ever to play in
the Southwest, which has given
us Sammy Baugh, John Kimbrough
and Doak Walker.
Other backs receiving votes in
the poll were: Harry Hugasian,
Stanford; Bob Blaik, Army; John
Dottley, Mississippi; Hank Lauri-
cella, Tennessee; Bill Barrett,
Notre Dame, and Gil Stephenson,
Army.
Beat the Sooners
Tipping the scales at 181 pounds
and standing 6’ 1” in his stocking
feet, Sikes is football wise and is
the most deceptive ball handler
on the squad.
Ineligible in 1948 because he
transferred from another college,
Sikes saw limited service in the
’49 campaign. He looked sharp in
both passing and punting last
spring and demonstrated his po
tentialities of playing safety or
defensive halfback.
He is the only Aggie quarter
back in the last three seasons who
has commanded a winning ball
club, for there were but few of
fensive minutes in which he was
not calling signals.
