Pass Perfectionists
BASED OP AP REPORTS
The fabulous razzle of the South
west Conference took up where it
left off last year, as four of the
six conference teams came through
with their expected victories.
A&M flew over UCLA, 21-14;
Texas edged Kentucky, 7-6; Arkan
sas smoothered the Oklahoma Ag
gies, 42-7; and Baylor shut out the
University of Houston, 19-0. Both
Texas Christian and Southern
Methodist were upset.
Kansas rocked the Horned Frogs,
27-13, and Georgia Tech stopped
SMU, 21-7. Rice, the other con
ference team, did not play.
Arkansas Gives Notice
Arkansas gave notice that it was
definitely one of the top teams in
the conference in racking up 422
yards through the air and on the
ground while limiting their offense.
Every player of the Arkansas team
entered the game.
The massive line of the Porkers
stalled the Oklahomans attack.
Larry Isbell of Baylor was out
shone in the passing department
as was SMU’s Fred Benners, when
Aggies Ray Graves and Dick
Gardemal gave the Southwest fans
something to wonder about when
the Cadets scored their three touch
downs through the air.
Texas proved that the Ken
tucky Babe, Vito Parilli, is human
and when rushed can, like any oth
er passer, fail to complete. A new
star was born at TCU in the form
of Mai Fowler, who outshone the
mighty Gil Bartosh.
Bruisin’ Bob Smith was just that
in California, reverting back to
the form of play which made him
famous during his sophomore year.
He broke off for only one long
gain, 19-yards, as the Aggies big
weakness—the offensive guard
spot—showed up.

Tech 21, SMU 7
Stubby Glenn Turner of Geor
gia Tech forgot to read the papsre
and led his Ramblin’' Wrecks to
an upset win over the Ponies of
SMU, 21-7, in a humid, hot, and
wet September afternoon in At
lanta.
Except for the first 10 minutes
when SMU looked two touchdowns
better than Tech, the Yellow Jack-

ets were faster and far better run
ners than their opponents from the
cow country.
During the first quarter and a
half, SMU twice paid dearly for
unsure ball handling on kicks and
poor protection for kickers.
Quarterback Darrell Crawford
made up for his weak throwing
arm to the 33,000 drenched fans,
by calling a near perfect game—
by finding where SMU was porous
and punching right there.
Turner blasted six yards to score
in the first quarter and kicked
three conversians. A fellow Tall-
adegan, Johnny Hicks, fastened
himself to one of Crawford’s meter
passes in the second quarter, and
covered 43 yards for another touch
down.
Rain In 2nd Quarter
Fain was falling lightly in the
second quarter when the Metho
dists’ string bean pitcher, Fred
Benners, looped a beautiful pass to
End Ben White for the Texan’s
touchdown.
The final score came on a 29-
yard run by Leon Hardeman, one
of about 10 first rate Tech sopho
mores.
Tech’s first big break came when
Jerry Norton, Methodist punter,
fumbled a high snap from center.
Lamar Wheat, Tech captain, batted
down Norton on SMU’s six, the
ball went to Tech on downs and
Turner butted through for a touch
down on the next play.
Russell’s Punt Hurts
A 10-yard kick by SMU’s H. N.
Russel, Jr., in the second quarter
helped Tech again. Soon after the
punt, Crawford passed to Hicks
for Tech’s second touchdown on a

Kansas 27, TCU 13
A fourth string quarterback on
the University of Texas freshman
team two years ago, Jerry Rob
ertson of the Kansas Jayhawks
proved a passing demon in Fort
Worth againt the Texas Christian
Frogs.
He completed a 36 yard scoring
heave to End Jerry Taylor in the
second period, hit John Konek for
an 11 yard -counter in- the third,
faked a pass and ran the final
seven yards for another TD in the
same quarter to lead the Kansans
to a 27-13 upset win.
Charlie Hoak, who was. expected
to be Kansas’ main threat, added
insult to injury by hitting halfback
Bob Brandenbury for a 39-yard
scoring pass in the final quarter.
Konek converted three in a row
after missing the first. Robertson
filled in at quarter to pull Kansas
from behind a 7-0 TCU lead built
on a 67-yard drive capped by Bob
by Jack Floyd’s one-yard smash.
Six-for-Six
His third-quarter splurge which
gave him a six-for-six completion
performance, ran the lead to 20-7
before TCU’s Malvin Fowler shift
ed to tailback to engineer a 78-
yard drive that ended when he hit
halfback John Medanich for a
touchdown from the threeyard-
line. Keith Flowers, who convert
ed after the first TCU score,
missed this time.

A URIVESSAL-WIttNAYlOKAL RICTUSE
Arkansas 42, Okie A&M 7
Arkansas gave notice in Still
water, Okla., that they were defin
itely in the race for the SWC title,
downing the Cowboys, 42-7.
Arkansas substituted freely in
the latter stages after taking a
23-7 lead at halftime. The Razor-
backs scored in every period with
sqven players piling up points.
Twenty-five thousand saw the
local Missouri Valley conference
entry gain considerable yardage in
midfield. But Arkansas, of t h e
Southwest Conference, halted all
but one A&M drive.

Dick Gardemal uses the form
which enabled him to complete
six out of nine passes for 101
yards, one TD and a 67 per
cent average, above« To the right
is Ray Graves who pitched nine
completions out of 17 attempts
for 146 yards, two touchdowns,
and a 53 per cent average. Both
boys efforts were against the
UCLA Bruins last Friday night

down. Hooper added his third con
secutive extra point to make the
final score A&M 21-UCLA 14.
Twice the Aggies drove deep
into UCLA territory behind the
almost perfect aerial bombing of
Ray Graves and Dick Gardemal
only to bog down before a stub
born Bruin line.
UCLA almost equalled the Aggie
scoring pace in the last half. The
Californians were lead by an un
known sophomore third-string tail
back, Paul Cameron, who sparked
the Bruin ground attack.
Cameron—New Star
Cameron scored on an 18-yard
jaunt after completing two straight
passes to Ernie Stockert for 22
yards. Herb Lane ran outside end
for eight and then Cameron went
the rest of the way to score.
Four plays later Pete Dailey
hauled in Yale Lary’s punt and
sped through the entire Aggie
team for 73-yards to register the
final Bruin score. Hal Mitchell,
captain, added both points after
touchdowns.
The Uclans threw a scare into
the Texans in the initial period
by reeling off four straight first
downs and traveling to the Ag
gie 20-yard line before being
stopped.
Charlie McDonald, defensive
halfback, and William Blair, guard,
were the main stalwarts, in halt
ing the early Bruin drive.
McDonald Stops Uclans
McDonald participated in four
straight tackles to help stop
UCLA’s first attempt to paydirt.
While the Bruins were kept busy
watching Bob Smith, who netted
50 yards on 13 carries, Graves
and Gardemal had a field day in
the air. Smith was still the Aggie’s
leading ground gainer.
Graves completed nine out of
17 throws for 142 yards and a 53
per cent average. Gardemal hit
the bullseye six times out of nine
attempts for 101 yards and a 67
per cent average.

UCLA’s Joe Sabol, before he
was forced to retire because of a
leg injury, put together a 14.75
average with 73 yards in five
tries. Dailey carried the ball sev
en times for 90 yards.
The Cadets gained only 124
yards on the ground as to com
pare with 243 yards gained through
the air.
This week the Aggies will be
preparing for their battle with
Texas Tech, who surprisingly beat
West Texas State in a one-sided
affair, 46 to 7.
Beat Texas Tech

Battalion Sports Writer
A&M Consolidated’s Tigers bow
ed 13-7 to the Cypress-Fairbanks
Bobcats in a hotly contested game
Friday night on Tiger Field.
The Tigers, holding a 7-6 lead
as the teams left the. field in the
first half, were hard-pressed to
hold the Bobcats to their one
touchdown in that period.
Big Ed Schroeder of the Bob
cats, tore the Tiger line to shreds
in the final period, and made the
winning TD for Cypress-Fairbanks.
Coach Othel Chafin’s boys are,
for the most part sophomores,
which means that with two years of
experience, the Tigers should be
hard to beat in ’52.
Leighton Scores
Jerry Leighton’s 35-yard run
in the first quarter gave the Tigers
an early lead. George Johnston,
Consolidated’s kicker, booted the
extra point.
In the second quarter, the Tigers
forced the Bobcats to punt three
times. On a 53-yard Tiger punt,
the Bobcats fumbled and the Tig
ers recovered on the C-F 17.
After a penalty and a fumble
the Tigers lost the ball and Adams
of Cypress-Fairbanks recovered.
Three plays after the Tiger fum
ble, Charley Bertani of C-F sprint
ed 56 yards before being brought
down by Consolidated back Willie
Arnold.
Ran Over Tigers
Cypress-Fairbanks literally ran
roughshod over the Tigers in the
second half, and big Ed Schroeder
of the Bobcats went through the
small Tiger line time and again.
George Johnston did a good job
of holding the Tiger secondary
defense together, and Tom Wade
and Pete Hickman were also ef
fective in holding the Bobcats
back.
This Friday, the Tigers have an
open date, but a week from Fri
day they open district play against
Milano on Tiger Field.
