Consolidated Footballers
Bruised and Battered Owls
Hope for 6th Cadet Defeat
By DALE DOWELL
| Saturday afternoon an injury
riddled Rice Institute eleven will
attempt to win its sixth straight
game from the rejuvenated Ag
gies. When these two football ma
chines clash on the turf of Kyle
Field, it will be the 35th meeting
of these old rivals.
Last weekend the Owls were
having trouble in subduing the Ar
kansas Razorbacks, while the hust
ling Cadets were outclassing the

The unofficial Texas spokesman
would not reveal the one-two order
of preference sent to Cotton Bowl
authorities by Athletic Director D.
X. Bible and Coach Blair Cherry.
But he said “all the top teams were
listed—-Oklahoma, Army, Ken
tucky and all the others we thought
might be available.
It was indicated that none of the
ranking teams of the Big Ten
Conference were nominated by Tex
as as that league has an exclusive
Rose Bowl agreement with the
Pacific Coast Conference.
In addition to unbeaten, untied
Oklahoma, Army and Kentucky, it
was understood Princeton, also
with a perfect record, Tennessee
(7-1), and probably Clemson, un
defeated but tied, were other
choices of the Texas Athletic
staff.
(No comment was available from
Texas A&M officials, but it is un
derstood that A&M’s choices gen
erally are the same as Texas’.
(Howard Grubbs, executive sec
retary of the Southwest Confer
ence, was not immediately avail
able for comment.
(Texas and A&M are the two
teams in the running for the cham
pionship).
Texas players were not consult
ed by Bible and Cherry in making
up the list.

Rumblings
College Station, Tex., Nov. 16—
OP)—The Texas A&M football team
began to think of T-formation de
fenses yesterday as it prepared for
the game with Rice here Saturday
afternoon.
After meeting the various wing
formations thrown by Arkansas
and SMU against the Aggies, Ihe
team had to work hard on expected
offensive plays of the Owls, who
use the regular T-formation. Later,
the offensive team went through
its paces.
Halfback Charles Royalty of
Freeport and Guard Murry Hold-
itch of Blooming Grove, both sen
iors, were named game captains
for Saturday.

Fort Worth, Nov. 16—(A’)—Gil-
Bartosh’s in-again-out-again knee
remained the most important sub
ject in Texas Christian University’s
grid camp today as the frogs pre
pared for their Saturday game
with Texas.
The star sophomore quarterback,
on the mend for nearly a month,
was running well until the knee
“popped out” during a pass scrim
mage yesterday. It was thought
the accident meant he’d not play
a down against the Longhorns.
But today he was moving around
again and commented “maybe that
was what the knee needed. Maybe
it popped back as it should be.”
B. J. Floyd, current number twh
quarterback, has a wounded hip
and the third man, Dexter Bassin-
ger, still is suffering from a shoul
der dislocation.

Dallas, Tex., Nov. 16—(TP)—
Southern Methodist University’s
football team stressed offense yes-

tice.
The Mustangs their Southwest
Conference title hopes about chill
ed on a 25-20 defeat to Texas A&M
last week, play Arkansas Satur
day.
Coach H. N. Russell said tackles
Neal Franklin and Hal Quinn and
backs Val Joe Walker and Gene
Roberts would be able to see some
action against the Razorbacks.
They have been hurt.
Houston, Nov. 16 —(JP)— Rice
Coach Jess Neely has hopes at
least two of his crippled Owls will
have a good day Saturday against
Texas A&M.
“I believe Sonny Wyatt and
George Glauser should have a
good day,” Neely said yesterday.
“They both are looking better than
they have in weeks.”
Wyatt has had a shoulder in
jury, while Glauser has been troub
led with an ankle sprain.
Neely emphasized offense today
in a long dummy scrimmage.
The only missing players were
guard Charles Stearns and Center
Don Rhoden. Both have knee in
juries.
Trainer Eddie Wojecki said he
experts Rhoden to play Saturday
but still is uncertain about Stearns,
a defensive specialist.
Fayelleville, Ark., Nov. 16—(A*)—
Coach Otis Douglas concentrated
on defense yesterday as he prepped
hjs University qf Arkansas foot
ball squad for Saturday’s meeting
with SMU at Little Rock.
The varsity was drilled in con
tact work against plays Douglas
expects SMU to use.
The squad apparently was in
high spirits. Physically it was in
good shape. Halfbacks Sammy
Furq and Johnny Cole are the only
injured who are considered cer
tain nbt to see action against the
Methodists.
•
Austin, Tex., Nov. 16—(A*)—
Coach Blair Cherry yesterday toss
ed customary caution against late
season injuries out the window and
put his Longhorns through a leath-
high and mighty SMU Mustangs.
Even though the Owls have not
looked good in recent games, they
sport a very commendable record-
seven and two, including early sea
son victories over Santa Clara and
LSU.
There are hopes that some of
Rice’s injured will be in condition
to play and should they, the cadets
will have a rough time.
At least two men who did not
go against Arkansas will be ready
Saturday—Tackle Joe Watson and
Halfback Don Campbell. Several
more of the braised and battered
Owls are given a change of recov
ery before the A&M game.
Sure to be idle on Saturday are
guard Charley Stearns, who hurt a
knee in the Arkansas skirmish, and
the broken bone contingent of Billy
Ed Daniels and Teddy Riggs.
The Aggies haven’t beaten the
Owls since 1944 when they ran up
a 19-6 count. Since the series be
gan in 1914 with the Farmers win
ning 32-7, A&M has won 18 games
to the Owls 11. Five games have
ended in a tie.
The greatest day in the series
for the Aggies was in 1933 when
the Cadets won 27-0. On Kyle Field
this year, the Aggies have been in
vincible and if they continue their
touchdown production rate, a new
scoring record for the series may
be set.
The Aggies scored 32 points in
their initial meeting with the
Feathered Flock to establish a rec
ord which has not fallen in 33
games.

Blaik Uneasy Over
Stanford “Power’’
West Point, Nov. 16—(A 5 )—Coach
Earl Blaik has an uneasy feeling
that his powerful Army team is
heading into a real bear fight
against Stanford out at Palo Alto
on Saturday. He anticipates any
thing except an easy victory over
the twice-beaten Coast eleven.
“All I’ve heard tells me Stanford
has a really fine team, extremely
fast and explosive,” the cadet men
tor said yesterday. “I think they
are good enough at this time to
give any team in the country an
even game. How we come out
against them might depend on how
we stand the trip.”

Bales, Molberg Named For
Defensive Linemen Honors
By RALPH GORMAN
Bob Bates and Carl Molberg have
been named A&M’s Defensive Line
men of the Week by the Battalion
Sports staff.
Both of these stellar athletes ex
hibited grid greatness against the
power running of the notorious
Kyle Rote and were thorns in the
side of Flingin’ Fred Benners in
disrupting his passing game,
r Fans in last Saturday’s Cotton
Bowl melee will remember that the
Cadet defensive linemen were de
ployed on each Mustang pass play,
as part of the forward wall would
rush while others dropped back
to cover potential pass receivers.
Pony linemen were confused on
this point because they never knew
just who would rush and who would
drop back on each play, so every
Aggie lineman played the roles of
rasher and pass defender.
BATES, a t
210 pounds,
played only on
defense, but can
be credited with

the A&M-Rice game and watch
Bob Smith, this season’s great full

In addition to seeing the annual

times to either break up the
play or stop the receiver in his
tracks.
MOLBERG,
""I senior letter-
t man from Fred-

played all but a
j few moments of
I the 60 minute
| contest, and has
| been employed
I on both offense
and defense
throughout the
season.
At 190 pounds,
Molberg is supposed to be “handi
capped by his size,” but recent Cot
ton Bowl spectators will agree that
the former three year all-district
guard is handicapped by nothing
and is one of the most capable
linemen in SWC football.
Molberg played with his eyes
wide open in chalking up two un
assisted tackles, and five more with
assistance. In addition to this,
A&M’s 60 minute guard is credited
with setting up 'tkePlfunr 'Xggie
tally when he recovered a Rote
miscue in the opening minuts of
the third period on the Mustang 17
yard line.
Four plays later another Cadet
six points was marked on the
scoreboard.
Review the highlights of the ac
tions of Molberg and Bates in last
Saturday’s gridiron battle and any
one will agree that these two
Cadets are in the running -^and
running hard—for all-conference
mention.
