football season for A&M Consol
idated High School will be blown
Friday night at 8 when the Con-
Yankees Pass
Lead to Indians;
Giants Fighting
By JOE REICHLER
Associated Press Sports Writer
A1 Rosen and Luke Easter,
Cleveland’s classy one-two punch,
are using their big bats to deflate
the theory that the Indians are a
“not hit, good pitch” club.
# The Indians wrested the lead
from the New York Yankees, who
dropped a 4-2 decision to the vis
iting Boston Red Sox. The tri
umph moved the third place Sox
4 to within three games of the de
fending champions and left them
four behind Cleveland. Boston
trails the Tribe by only one in the
important “lost” column.
Giants Hustle
New York’s Giants refuse to
give up their fight to overhaul the
National League leading Brooklyn
Dodgers. A sweep of a double-
header from Boston, 3-2 and 9-1,
enabled them'to cut Brooklyn’s lead
to five and a half games. The
Dodgers whipped the Philadelphia
Phils, 5-2.
Philadelhpia’s Athletics tpok two
from Washington, 4-1 and 9-7;
Cincinnati defeated Pittsburgh, 6-3,
and the St. Louis Cardinals and
Chicago Cubs split. The Cubs won
the opener, 3-2, in 11 innings and
the Cards grabbed the nightcap,
6-5.
Rosen, Easter Homer
The homers by Rosen and East
er were all Cleveland’s Early Wunn
deeded to register his 17th tri-
Jmph against 12 losses. The right-
iiander surrendered only four hits.
Dick Kryhoski batted in both De
troit runs with a homer and sin-
fle.
r Brilliant pitching by Leo Kiely
r.nd Maurice McDermott, a pair of
youpg southpaws, helped Boston to
its loth victory in 15 meetings with
the Yankees.
* Kiely Does Well
Kiely, called up from Louisville
last July, hurled seven runless in
nings before weakening. A bril
liant rescue, job by McDermott
helped the 21-year-old from Ho
boken, N.J., to his fifth victory in
eight decisions.
Billy Goodman’s two-run double
in the first inning, Ted Williams’
28th homer in the third and Bobby
Doerr’s single in the fifth, ac
counted for the Red Sox runs. All
came with two." out. Vic Raschi
lost his ninth decision against 17
victories. Williams now has hpm-
ered in every park, joining Eddie
Robinson of Chicago as the only
American Leaguers to accomplish
the feat this season.
A grand slam homer by Gil Hod
ges, the sixth of his career, gave
the Dodgers and Ralph Branca
V their victory. It was Hodges’ 37th
circuit clout and Branca’s 13th tri
umph.
solidated eleven meet Kosse in a
non-conference game at Tiger
Field. This game should forecast
things to come for the “Tigers”
who last year were third in district
play with two wins and two losses.
Beginning his third year as head
coach at Consolidated, 0. V. Chafin
was optimistic about this year’s
light, fast team. He predicted that
the team would win more games
this year than last year, unless
something unforeseen happened.
The Tigers will be using the T
formation Friday night with Fred
Anderson, 120 pound sophomore in
the man-under slot. No injuries
will hinder the Consolidated aggre
gation. They worked out under the
lights during the first part of the
week, but will relax with a light
workout today in anticipation of
the coming tilt.
Starting Lineup
In the starting lineup for Friday
night, the end positions will be
filled by two sophomores—Jimmy
Richards, 130 pounds, and David
Bonnen, 135 pounds. Don Williams,
155 pound sophomore will hold
down left tackle in Friday night’s
game and will act as team captain
for the game. Playing ht the right
tackle position will be Thomas
Wade, senior with weight set at
130.
The two guard posts will be filled
by Don Royder, 125 pounds, senior
student, and Jimmy Bond, 140
pound sophomore. Pinky Cooner,
weighing 150 pounds will start at
center. Rounding out the backfield
will be three seniors—Jerry Leigh
ton, 149 pounds at right half,
Gayle Klipple, 135 pounds at full
back, and George Johnston, 135
pounds at left half.

Head Coach
Aggie Aerial Attack Shaping Up
Attainment of Coach Ray
George’s No. 1 objective of develop
ing an acceptable passing attack
for the Aggies loomed as a defin
ite possibility near the conclusion
of the first week of two-a-day
workouts.
Team conditioning has become
of secondary importance now that
most of the players have rounded
into their weights of last season,
and George and his staff are put
ting increased stress on throwing
and catching the football, and
blocking for the passer. If A&M
develops this passing game to equal
the running game of last year,
most of George’s worries will be
over.
The coaching staff has placed
training on a general theme of
team improvement rather than one
of competition for the “starting”
berths.
The four quarterbacks, for exam
ple, are getting identical schooling
in ball handling, passing and signal
calling in an effort to raise the
overall level of efficiency.
Quarterbacks Dick Gardemal,
Ray Graves, Delmer Sikes and Roy
Dollar have actually progressed
faster than their receivers in the
passing-attack plan. The chunkers
have been laying the ball in the
receivers’ arms, but the ends have
had some difficulty in holding the
areials. Graves, a junior squadman,
has developed rapidly in passing
during this past week.
Bob Smith, the Aggies’ fullback
candidate for All American, re
turned to college this fall in good
Injuries Hit Aggies
During Workouts
Injuries cropped up among the
Texas Aggies as the squad went
through a long work-out yesterday.
Charlie Hodge, starting end,
pulled a muscle and guard Robert
George suffered a head injury.
Meanwhile, Yale Lary, the team’s
top punter, watched from the side
lines with a pulled muscle. He
hasn’t worked out all week and
neither has linebacker Van Heth-
erly, who also is hux-t.

condition fop the first time in his
college career. Wearing a plastic
mask this year instead of the
leather-covered face piece, Smith
has mixed in blocking and tackl
ing practice with the enthusiasm
and abandon of a sophomore. The
big fullback and his two running
mates— Billy Tidwell and Glenn
Lippman—already show much of
the polish and hustle which caused
the Aggies to lead the conference
in scoring and rushing last sea
son.
Coach Gil Steinke has been im
pressed by the smallest player in
the Aggies backfield—sophomore
fullback Johnny Salyer of Austin.
Salyer, who quarteibacked the
freshman team last year, has been
as hai’d to stop as a young Bi’ah-
man. Two other sophomores—half
backs Pete Mayeaux of New Or
leans and Bill Ballard of Wylie—
are developing defensively for this
fall.
A transfer from Tulane and a
member of the Aggie B team last
year, W. G. Blair has moved ahead
rapidly at the tackle spot. His
ability and desire have pleased line
coach Paul McMurtry. Lettermen
tackles Sam Moses and Jack Little
and guards W. T. Rush, Mai’Shall
Rush and Elo Nohavitza ai’e get
ting back into seasonal stride.
Coach Hank Foldbei’g pi'ejsed his
ends all week in an effort to de
velop the receiving end of the pass
ing attack. Ends Walter Hill, Clin
ton Gwin, Darrow Hooper and Eric
Miller turned in good defensive
performances duxing scrimmages,
but Foldbei'g has found all the can
didates weak on blocking and pass
receiving.

Did you ever pause to listen to the voice
of God? We hear it every day, wherever
we may be.
In the whispering of tall trees...the music
of rushing brooks...the songs of the birds...
the gay laughter of happy children... we
' hear the voice of the Great Creator. Through
... his infinite grace a bird is enabled to sere
nade his mate, a tiny cricket chirps its faint
refrain. God is the Bringer of all blessings
to man and beast alike.
Let us give thanks to Him who has so en
riched our lives. Open church doors beckon
all over our land. Let us seek the House of
the Lord, and enter in to pay Him homage.
Here through prayer and humility, let us
re-dedicate ourselves to His service and
glorification.
THE CHURCH FOR ALL . . .
ALL FOR THE CHURCH
The Church is the greatest fac
tor on earth for the building of
character and good citizenship. It
is a storehouse of spiritual values.
Without a strong Church, neither
democracy nor civilization can
survive. There are four sound
reasons why every person should
attend services regularly and sup
port the Church. They are: (1)
For his own sake, (2) For his
children's sake. (3) For the sake
of his community and nation. (4)
For the sake of the Church itself,
which needs his moral and ma
terial support. Plan to go to
I church • regularly and read your
I Bible daily.
