Horned Frogs’ Best

VMFs Joe Stump Did OK Till
He Hit Aggie Forward Wall
Lexington, Oct. 20—(SPC) —
Joe Stump, the V.M.I. fullback who
came into his own this year and
has ranked with the nation’s top
rushers all season, will match his
abilities with those of Virginia’s
Johnny Papit Saturday afternoon
in Charlottesville in a battle which
could be decided by fullback play.
Last year’s Virginia-V.M.I. en
counter, a 23-13 win for the Cava
liers, was decided in the final pe-
ri.Qd. when Papit came off the bench
to lead a three-touchdown spree
which broke the 13-13 third-quarter
score.
Even more valuable to V.M.I. this
season has been Joe Stump, who
averaged more than a hundred
yards per game until the Texas
A&M battle where he was held to
a net total of 54 by a big, fast
Aggie line. “Joltin’ Joe” did well
to go as far as he did that eve
ning, and still averages better than
93 per outing. His average pel
try is 4.8, far above par for full
backs.
Clayton Marable
The “old man” of the TCU team,
24-year-ol(J Clarence “Red” Mar-
able will be seeking revenge
Saturday in the ranks of the
Cadets. Red received a knee in
jury in the Aggie-Frog game
last year and was out for the
rest of the season.
Dove Season
Opens Today
Today will probably find a great
number of hunters in the field for
the opening day of dove season, the
season that millions of American
sportsmen look forward to with
keen and impatient anticipation
and look back on with pleasurable
recollection.
The mourning dove, a migratory
species, has long been a popular
game bird of Texas sportsmen.
They have always been rather num
erous in Texas, and survey data
shows there has been an increase
in the numbers of these birds dur
ing the last 15 years in spite of
increased hunting.
It has become popular in South
Texas because of the shortening
of open seasons on other game
and because it opens before others.
The great majority of mourning
doves in Texas hatch and rear their
young during the period from April
to about mid-September. Conse
quently dove hunting does not open
in Brazos County until October
20th. The daily bag limit posses
sion is 10 with some local excep
tions. The shooting hours are from
one hour before sunrise until one
hour before sunset, also with local
exceptions.

WATCH
OUT ^
GHOST-AND-GHOUL time is almost here. It won’t be long before dark
shadows dance across the face of the moon, and ghosts walk in the black
hours before dawn. Witches will hold their yearly conclaves in their hide-
away caves, watching the pot that always boils but never runs over.
And the superstitious, those who fear All Hallows Eve, will take pre
cautions against the evil that they feel sure will be abroad in greater force
than on any night in the year.
YES, MANY PEOPLE are superstitious about Hallowe’en.
They’re also leery of black cats, leaning ladders, and broken
mirrors.
BUT IT’S NO superstition that Battalion advertising brings
in results, on Hallowe’en as well as on the other 364 days in
the year. Whether it’s false faces or furs that you have
to sell, an ad in The Battalion will reach the right people.

TCU Planning
Imbued with the shrewd calculation of upsetting the
highly-favored Texas Aggies, the TCU Horned Frogs will
pile into Kyle Field tomorrow at 2 p. m. to contest a team
which hasn’t beaten them since 1946.
For the past week Dutch Meyer has been singing the
blues, but reports from Harry Stiteler’s office says the
Aggies took a hint from the Frog victory over Arkansas and
will be ready with determination, not over-confidence to take
the Purple and White.
TCU will be powered by quarterback Gilbert “Dual Pur
pose” Bartosh, star passer and runner. Already being com
pared to the great Davey O’Brien and the versatile Lindy
Berry, Bartosh, an academic junior but an athletic sopho
more, leads the Southwest Conference and is 16th nationally
on total offense. Against Tech he personally accounted for
152 yards—70 on the ground and* *
82 via the air. He didn’t play the
second half.
Of any comparison is to be
made between these two clubs, it
can be done from the teams’ show-
against Tech. First downs ran 12
apiece when TCU played them. The
total yardage Avas 368 for TCU
and 307 for Tech. Against A&M,
Tech ran up 15 firsts against 19
for the Aggies, while the yardage
was 273 and 305 respectively.
Heavy Backs
Rounding out the backfield will
be veterans Johnny Dunn and John
Morton and Sophomore Bobby
Jack Floyd. Dunn, who lettered last
&

Leo “Dutch” Meyer
TCU Head Mentor
year at half, looms as one of the
Frogs’ top backfield stars of 1950.
He has picked up more power this
year and has already proved to be
one of the fastest men in the Con
ference. If unable to play, Dunn
will he relieved by “defensive”
halfback John Harville who aver
aged eight yards per against
Tech. The 220 lb. Morton has been
transferred from half to full fol
lowing injury to John Medanich,
the usual right halfback. Last
year he scored 42 points to lead
the Frogs in that department.
Starting at fullback will be
Floyd who weighs in at 200. A
hard-driving, bull-necked runner,
Floyd is expected to be the main
offensive threat on the ground.
Marable and Eubank Ready
Charging from line positions will
be two of the most respected lines
men in the Conference—center Max
Eubank and tackle Red Marable.
Eubank, a three-year letterman
who has yet to play a down of foot
ball this fall, backs up the. line
and is a fine pass defender as well
as the regular offensive center.
Also a three-letter map and two
platoon player, Marable missed the
first two games due to a knee in
jury. The 220 lb. right tackle has
long been lauded by sports writers,
and many expect him to make the
All-Southwest Conference team
this year.
Billy Willingham and Milton
Farmer, both two-year lettefmen,
will hold down left and right
guard respectively. Both turned in
splendid performances against
Tech.
The ends will be Bob Moorman,
Wilson George, and Bill Moorman.
The Moorman twins are three-year
lettermen and are known as the
best defensive end team in the
SWC. George usually alternates
with Bob Moorman and fills his
capable shoes.
TCV’s offensive line will aver
age about 2t)8 lbs. while the de
fensive uflit' weighs in around 222.
The presence of Morton and Floyd
in the backfield would bring that
average to 191.
Offensive Game Expected
At no time in the ’50 season
has TCU been at full strength,
but Meyer hopes to field prac
tically all of his first-stringers to
morrow. Against a heavier and
deeper Arkansas line the “crippled”
Frogs ran amuck.
Neither the Aggies or Frogs
are taking the game lightly. The
Frogs listened to Bud Wilkerson
say that “They (the Aggies) grind
you down, blast you to pieces and
take you apart ... nine aren’t
enough to stop that Aggie smash
ing.” TCU has been working vig
orously on defense since.

Dillon to See
Full Service
Austin, Tex., Oct. 20—
(AP)—Bobby Dan Dillon of
Temple will be one of the
few Texas Longhorns to do
double duty against Arkansas
here Saturday.
A regular defensive halfback
since the SMU game of 1949, Dil
lon will move into a first string
offensive post against the Razor-
backs.
Dillon owes his chances to the
injury of a teammate. Last year
when Billy Pyle, regular safety-
man, was hurt in the SMU melee,
Dillon took over and in four games
proved himself one of the league’s
outstanding defensive performers.
Dillon, proved himself an out
standing candidate for offensive

Fayetteville, Ark., Oct. 20 —
(Spc)—The Arkansas Razorbacks
will , be , on hand to see a third
straight Southwest Conference
school get its loop season under
way this Saturday when the Pork
ers journey to the Texas state cap
ital for their 32nd battle with the
Texas Longhorns.
The series, which dates back to
Arkansas’ first year of football,
1894, has always been one of the
most colorful in the southwest—
this despite the overwhelming mar
gin of victories held by the Steers.
Otis Douglas is Arkansas’ 20th
head football coach—but only one
of that number has had the honor
of ceelbrating a victory over Tex
as— Fred Thomsen. The period
from 1933 to 1938—a lean one in
Texas football history — was a
fruitful ope for Arkansas. Thom
sen’s charges took over and handed
the Longhorns five defeats in the
six years. They have been the
only wins in the 54-year history of
battle between the two schools.
Douglas admitted he was unfa
miliar with football as played in
the Southwest Conference prior to
becoming Arkansas’ head coach—
and adds with the same breath—
unfamiliar with any so-called jinx
that Texas might hold oVer Ar
kansas.
Records don’t lie as far as,hfe?s
concerned but his Arkansas foot
ball squad isn’t going to be awed
by the Steer’s series domination.
He still admits frankly that his
ball club makes a lot of mistakes—
but at the same time it is improv
ing week by week.
The Porkers gathered momentum
and much-needed poise against the
Baylor Bears in a 27-6 lashing last
Saturday and emerged from the
game in good physical shape. Dou
glas was visibly pleased with tl)e
Razorback line — a forward wall
that will meet its match in experi
ence and size this week. Against
Baylor the Hogs did a superb job
of bottling up quarterback Larry
