• t Tigers Lose Both Games To Milano The trip to Milano turned out to be a disastrous one for both A & M Consolidated basketball iteams Tuesday night as they bowed to two fast-breaking Eagle quin tets, 22 to 48 (“A” game) and 13 to 26. In the first end of the double header, Milona lead the Consoli dated “By' 10 to 4 at the end of the first half and went on to lengthen their lead in the second half. Two Eaglets, Craig Magee and Bud Williams, tied for scor ing honors with eight points apiece while Pinky Cooner was high for Consolidated with four. Milano was never behind. The Consolidated varsity fared no better than their younger brothers as they too were never allowed to lead in their game. At half time they were on the short end of an 8 to 18 score, and, as in the first game, failed in their attempts of “catch-up.” Milano’s Bobby Brasher led all scorers with 16 points and Billy Blakely of A&M was second with 11. Last year Consolidated defeated the Eagles in the zone play-offs, but Milano didn’t lose a single man from that team and consequently has some fine prospects this year. To date the Eagles have been undefeated in ten games. This was the first district loss for the Tigers who have heretofore beaten Snook and Somerville in district contests, while this was the third district win for Milano. Cpnsolidated has won two of seven starts this season. According to Frank Vaden, Jr., Milano can field a potent five. “They looked good all the time and never let up. They made very good shots but not the kind that would be called “luck shots.” The Tigers will be idle until January 4th at which time they will play Thorndale in another dis trict game.

He sneer- cause we’re so ugly. “There’s a great deal of difference in Eastern and South western football. Except maybe for Princeton, most teams in the East play a conservative game of ball. Now judging from Army standards, I can say this. The game is much faster. I mean getting back to huddle, calling the play and getting it off. I “There is not much razzle-dazzle, except, as I said before, Princeton. Most of the time they just grind it out. Coach Blaik wants to go for a touchdown every play, but predom inately via the ground. We only averaged about 11 passes a game last year. Most of the time is spent on fundamentals, and they are really stressed. ' Just about that time Bill’s lovely wife came in. As they have only been married since July first, we turned our head discreetly. The wife is no less than the former Miss Alma Jean Vance of Bryan, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Harold Vance. This didn’t bother us too much since we don’t have classes under Dr. Vance. Scowling darkly at us, Bill re luctantly returned to the subject at hand. Of course, he had only gone to West Point to get a liberal education in travel, gadding about the East. He wouldn’t admit this naturally, but sat pouring out praise to both institutions. It was in July of ’46 that Bill galloped into “The Point”. Gallop ed is a mild word. This is what is typical of so many men that slip away from A&M. Aggies At West Point Yeoman lettered three years in Somehow we got back on the football.

I never thought they would heat them that much. Yes, A&M is getting better and more publicity In the East now. Last year and before that, it was only a score, hut now they are getting a little writeup, especially after the SMII and Georgia games. Most of the time it was Smith, though. We got to see those national statistics and were really impressed, hut if he is as good as they say he is (at this point we hastened to re assure him), he isn’t getting as much as he deserves. Then the conversation went back to Army. “We lose only one man, Fold berg, from our defensive unit next year. Offensively we lose Stephen son, Cain, Martin and Fischl in the backfield and Foldberg, Elmbald and Ackerson, the greatest offen sive tackle I have ever seen, in the line. Boy, is Ackerson underrated. Coach doesn’t have to worry about backs, though, for he will still have Pollard, Polluck, Filipski and Blaik.” When asked about Coach Earl “Red” Blaik he said. “Blaik thinks nothing of using more than 16 to 17 hours a day on the team. One day we worked two and a half hours on one play, just changing it around to get the best blocking. Finally it was changed back to the original way. When it comes to working out, counting the time getting on and off the field, the team spends about an hour and a half a day. The longest practice last year was an hour and three quarters. The coach believes in working out the kinks before prac tice and then gets the hoys out there and works things out! right. The wife came in again about here. We asked her when the heir was expected. “May the 18th!” It’s A Girl Imagine, she had it zeroed in. Mrs. Yeoman also made it plain that it would be a girl. Bill only grumbled—or was it mumbled. That was just about the end of a veiy pleasant conversation. After the holidays January sec ond or third, the Yeomans will hustle, complete with dog, to Fort Benning Georgia, where Bill will join the 4th Training Division. Af ter that, who knows? Yessir, quite an athlete and quite a guy. (His wife is nice too.. We went with her first, but he mar ried her. Yep, he’s big.) A&M could have used Bill Yeoman these last few years, but so like many others, they seemed to slip away. And to think that Bob Smith al most went to another school.

Cravath abandoned stricken ship, effective Jan. 1, climaxing an anti- Cravath, old grad offensive that mounted as the Trojan grid for tunes wallowed and pitched last season. Cravath, senior coach in service in the Pacific Coast Conference, stepped down with nothing but BPW Predicts Bowl Winners “The trite expression is ‘Bowl Game.’ That is, any football con test not scheduled for regular sea son play but arranged as an after season performance, usually with festive trimmings.” This is the way the United Fea ture Syndicate’s football expert, Paul B. Williamson, ushers post season grid-iron activity through out the country. As usual Williamson is on hand with on-the-spot “hot ones” for all bowl enthusiasts. The System sounds the horn of prognostication from the Tournament of the Roses in Pasadena, Cal. to the Hula Bowl in Honolulu, but takes time out to discuss the ever-increasing rise in the number of bowl contests. “Therefore this 1950-51 football season will haVe seen at least 52 so-called ‘bowls’. And that does not include several over-seas service af fairs and the various colored bowls. “So . . whether there are getting to be too many bowls or not, there they are. And the trend seems to be definitely upward. After all, it is not bad Americanism to feel that if the good people of, say, Cor pus Christi, Texas, want to stage a holiday football game for char ity’s sake, they have as much right to do so as the good people of Pasadena, California.” Next Monday, December 25th, the second (A&M-Georgia being the first) major howl game will be played when Northern and Southern All-Stars meet in Miami, Florida. Williamson takes the South, 13 to 7, in the first of three North-South affairs. This one is known as the Shriner Bowl. Two representatives of A&M, Carl Mol- berg and Max Greiner, will play in this game. For December 30th, the System picks the South to defeat the North again—-this time 19 to 7— in the oldest of the North-South games. This is the annual Bliie- Grey contest which is played at Montgomery, Alabama. Williamson also picks the West to take the East 20 to 13 on the same day. Andy Hillhouse of A&M will take part in this Shrine game which is played every year for the benefit of crippled children. Texas To Beat Tennessee On New Year’s Day Williamson sees things this way: California 13, Michigan 7 in the Rose Bowl; Oklahoma 14, Kentucky 6 at the Sugar Bowl; Texas to beat Ten nessee 13-7 in the Cotton Bowl; Clemson 21, Miami, Florida 20 in the Orange Bowl; the Sun Bowl fans to see Denver take Cincin- natti 21-20; Miami of Ohio to beat Tempe State 21 to 13 in the, Salad Bowl; Denver 20, Hawaii 6 in Hon olulu’s Pineapple Bowl; Wharton JC 13 to 7 over San Angelo in the Oleander Bowl. This leaves only one major bowl game, the Senior Bowl, played at Mobile, Alabama on January 6th. The System picks the South over the North 13-0. All participants from the Southwest Conference will find themselves peculiarly playing for the North. Beat SH Bob Smith And Billy Tidwell On Ga. All-Opponent Athens, Ga., Dec. 21—(A 5 )—Geor gia football players unanimously voted Texas A&M’s Bob Smith, and Alabama’s left end, A1 Lary, to their 1950 all-opponent team. The Bulldogs voted Texas A&M the strongest offensive power they faced, Alabama the “best all round team” and Maryland (in the first half) just as formidable as either Texas A&M or Alabama. The first all-opponent team in cluded Bill Tidwell (Texas A&M) halfback. Smith was also chosen by “Sports Album” as one of the top 10 backs in the nation for 1950.

He will be paid $30,000 which the wealthy alumni agreed to dig up to buy off the two years remaining on his contract. Cravath, 47, made no direct men tion of the pressure brought by the Alumni. A series of secret sessions ended with one last night in which it was agreed to demand the coach’s resignation and buy up his contract. Cravath, one of the greatest line men in Trojan history, took over as USC in 1942. He guided USC to four Pacific Coast Conference Champions and into four Rose Bowl games. He won the, first two but lost the last pair, to Alabama and Michigan. The 1950 campaign was the most disastrous. The Trojans lost five games, tied two and won two. Disappointing losses were to Navy, California and UCLA. The final game was a big victory 9-7 over traditional rival Notre Dame, and many felt the win might squelch the Wolves’ howls. Cravath’s overall record at USC was 54 wins, 28 losses and eight ties.
