Fish Win Over TU
By CHUCK NEIGHBORS
Battalion Sport Staff
In a hard-foupht pame at Clark
Field in Austin Tuesday, the Fish
defeated their lonp-standing rivals,
the TU Shorthorns, 8-4.
The Cadets went behind 0-2 in
the first inning on a terrific home
rain with one man on base, by
Travis Eckert, TU center-fielder.
Aggie Al Fuchs hit into a triple
pkiy in the second frame, when
be popped-up to Bob Newberry,
TU second baseman. Fuchs was
automatically out, on the infield
fly rule, but Newberry dropped the
ball, and runners Joe Schero and
Jerry Robinett tried to advance on
Newberry’s error.
fv'hero was cut off at the plate
on a fast throw from Newberry to
Shorthorn catcher Al Knebel.
Knebel relayed to third baseman
Bill Towery who tagged Robinett.
The score was tied un in the
fourth inning when a single by Ag
gie hurler Mel Work scored Schero
and Fish center fielder Ernie Law
rence.
Work had a fine day in Austin,
despite an infected knee that had
hospitalized him the night before.
• ‘He pitched a five-hit ball game as
he went the distance.
The seventh was the big inning
for the Fish as they scored four
. . runs on three hits. Hunt started
the fireworks with a hit to center
field, Leissner followed with a
sharp single to the same fielder.
Selman drew a walk, Shero was
hit by a pitched ball and went to
fint, and Lawrence went down
swinging for the first out.
Meanwhile, Hunt had scored
when Schero was hit by the pitcher.
Al Fuchs drew a walk from relief
pitcher Ronald Hague and Work
then came up and hit a line single
through shortstop scoring Selman
and Schero.
The total, four runs on three
hits. ’
The Aggies scored their last two
runs in the eighth when catcher
Robinett lifted a long hit over
the right field fence for a home run
with one man on base.

A&M,TCUGolf
Quartets Battle
In Fort Worth
Two last place golf teams
with large and high aspira
tions, A&M and TCU, will
slam it out at Fort Worth to
morrow afternoon to see who
will take over undisputed posses
sion of the SWC cellar.
Both quartets have compiled a
.333 percentage this season, but
the Frogs, who have played one
more match than the Aggies, have
won eight matches, whereas, A&M
has won only six. The equalizer is
the loss column, which shows the
Toads with 16 losses as compared
to the Cadets 12.
The A&M linksmen started their
1951 season as if they yould tear
all contenders to pieces. Two wins
were quickly posted over the Uni
versity of Houston—one was a
shutout—and single victories were
taken from Hardin-Simmons and
St. Edwards of Austin. A&M
blanked the Austin invaders.
In their first conference appear
ance, the “Big Four” of Bob Da-
honey, Tony Guerrero, Johnny Bar
rett and Billy Baker were held to
a tie by a potent Rice outfit. Bay
lor’s youngsters then added anoth
er tie to the Aggies’ score up in
Waco.
Texas added insult to injury in
Austin when they blanked A&M
6-to-0 in Austin.
Last week, in a contest which
was a fill-in for a postponted SMU
match, A&M fell before Trinity
University of San Antonio, 5-and-2.
Considering that Trinity is the na
tion’s best, it may be assumed that
the Cadets did very well.

Aggie Nine Meets
Baylor In Waco
By FRED WALKER, JR.
Battalion Sports Editor
The Aggie baseball team will hit
the road for Waco Friday to meet
the tied-for-third-Baylor Bears, a
potent diamond nine.
A&M will have a two-game series
this weekend, one Friday and one
Saturday contest.
With four regulars and a pitcher
batting over .300, the Bears are
far more powerful than their five-
five record would tell.
Catcher Lary Isbell is leading the
Bruin batting order with a fat
.339 while Ken Williams, third
baseman, is second with a .313.
Second baseman Tyree Newton
and outfielder Buddy Parker are
the other two regulars hitting
above the magical three-hundred
mark. Newton has a .30,9 average
and Parker has slapped out 19
hits in 63 official trips to the
plate for a .301.
The rest of the starters, and
their batting averages, are Joe
Miles (.227), first base, Harry
Davis (.187), shortstop, and out
fielders Charley Price (.235), Tay
lor Willoughby (.233) and Bobby
Stotts (.276).
Parker, Parker
In the Runs Scored department,
Parker is the leader with 16 tal
lies while Isbell is a close second
with 15. Williams and Newton have
11 and 10 respectively.
Parker leads also in Runs-Batted-
In. The big outfielder has knock
ed in 14 and again Isbell is the
A&M, Rice, TU Track
Stars Yie Tomorrow
By RAY HOLBROOK
Battalion Sports Staff
Returning to Southwest Confer
ence Competition, the undefeated
Texas Aggie tracksters take on
Texas and Rice in the third tri
angular meet of the year. This
one will be in Austin Friday after
noon.
For the Cadets it will be their
last priming before the SWC meet
in College Station, May 11 and 12,
where they hope to regain the SWC
crown.
Topping the list of point scorers
is Ag Soph Darrow Hooper, unde
feated in the shot and discus. Just
last weekend he completed his
sweep of the weight events in the
nation’s relay carnivals by taking
the Drake Relays shot and discus
with 52’ 7” and 152’ .65” respect
ively. ”
Hooper will be counted on by the
favored Aggies for 10 points this
week as well as in the conference
meet where he is almost a cinch to
break the shot record of 50’ 2”.
Leming vs Howton
Paul Leming, A&M’s SWO high
hurdle champion, will renew his
duel with Rice’s Bill Howton. Lem
ing took third in a photo finish
in the Drake high hurdles with
Val Joe Walker of SMU fourth.
Howton did not place.
Should Leming beat Howton this
week he will be the favorite to
fight it out with Walker in the
conference race.
Rice’s feature stars will be half
milers Otha Byrd and Bill Graf,
however. They hold a time, togeth
er, of 1:54.2 for the best SWC
time, as well as a decisive win oVer
Ag soph sensation, Ed Wilmsen.
Wilmsen will be pointing for them
as the two Owls attempt to bet
ter their times.
Meeks, Marek, Person
Texas’ outstanding performers
will be Charlie Meeks, Ray Marek,
and Ralph Person. Meeks is unde
feated in the broad jump this year,
winning the event at the Texas,
Kansas and Drake Relays.
Marek, second in the javelin at
Drake, is the conference’s leading
spear tosser. The big question is
whether Person, star sprinter and
low hurdler, will he rqady for this
meet and the SWC meet next
week. He pulled a muscle at Kan
sas week before last.
Jack Simpson, Ag captain and
great pole vaulter, will be trying
to vault 14’ again, a mark he is
most anxious to attain in the con
ference meet if he is to elipse the
record of 13’ 10%”. He took a tie
for third at Drake, going 13’ 6”.
Looking for some of the luck
(See TRACK STARS, Page 6)
runnerup; this time with 13. Davis
has 12 to his credit.
Isbell, the triple-threat quartei’-
back, leads in doubles with four
while Davis and Stotts trail with
three apiece.
Again Parker takes the leader
ship in an important department.
He has four home runs and Isbell
and Stotts have two each.
Classy Hurler
Ray Fitzpatrick, the classy little
Bear righthander, has built an ad
mirable mound record this season.
Of the five conference games that
Baylor has won so far, four of the
victories were taken by Fitzpatrick.
Texas, A&M, TCU and SMU have
all bowed to the curve-ball artist.
To complete his record of seven
won and only three lost, Fitzpat
rick also beat Oklahoma, Minne
sota and the University of Hous
ton. His losses were to Texas (1)
and Rice (2).
Fitzpatrick has hurled 74 1/3
complete innings this year and
has allowed 30 runs and 60 hits.
The impressive part of the right
hander’s record is the 41 strike
outs.
The other two Bear mound aces,
Clyde Robinson and Mac Gresham,
have given up 32 runs, 42 hits in
38 1/3 innings and 14 runs, 16
hits in 19 1/3 frames respectively.
Robinson is really the leading
Bruin batter with five hits in 14
trips for an average .357.

this morning.
“Deadline for filing has been set

This is the first major event for
the recently completed A&M

Austin, will be back to defend the
title he won with a 72 hole total
