Blinn To Test Ag Fish
Thursday on Kyle Field
By FRANK SCOTT
Battalion Sports Writer
Coach Klepto Holmes will send
his A&M freshmen eleven against
the Blinn College Buccaneers
Thursday night an Kyle Field at
8.
“It will be the initial test for
the power-laden freshmen,” said
Holmes.
Last week the Baylor Cubs over
ran Blinn 41-0, and Thursday’s
game should give the Cadets a
yardstick by which to measure
themselves to the other SWC fresh
men squads.
Coach Holmes’ eleven will send
one All-American, 11 All Staters,
and 28 All-District players to the
Varsity squad next year to help
replace 20 graduating seniors.
Probably the outstanding name
on the squad is that of Paul
Kennon, a Louisiana lad, who
handled himself well enough to
garner All-American honors last
year.
One of Little River Academy’s
greatest players, Kyle Killough,
will adorn the fresh roster. Kil
lough Was all-district for three
reasons and led Academy to a pair
of championships.
Stars on the roster include:
Henry Arnett of Dallas, two
years all-State end; Fred Brous
sard of De Quincy, La., three
years all-District and all-State
center; James Self of Wichita
Falls, three years all-District
and all-State halfback.
Others include Ed Hennig of Ty
ler, second-team All-State, Nation
al Scholarship Award quarterback;
Sam Howard of New Braunfels,
All-District quarterback; Marvin
Tate of Abilene, two years AU-

“Col. Andy” Anderson’s cross
country team will be without the
services of John Garmany Saturday
night when they meet Oklahoma
University in the annual two-mile
race preceding the OU-A&M grid
iron clash.
Garmany was spiked in the* knee
last week and will not be able to
hold down his spot on the squad.
James Blaine, sophomore num
ber one man on the team, has inn
^racticq jlaps, in near-record time.
Dale DeRouen, also a sophomore,
is running a close second to Blaine.
Holding down the number three
spot is Charles Hudgins, a junior.
Garmany, originally fourth man
on the team, will be replaced by
Charles Gabriel, whose number
five position will be filled by Jody
Zern.
Year of Experience
On the OU side of the ledger, a
junior team with a full year’s ex
perience will take the track against
the Cadets Saturday night at 7:35.
Last year in Norman, the Aggies
were defeated by the Sooners,
23-32.
In cross-country, as in all track
events, low score or low time wins.

Dallas, All-City Conference, and

ence.
Blinn College was the producer
of the great Joe Routt, Texas
Texas A&M All-American, and
Ernie Key, one of the great ath
letes in the history of Texas Uni
versity.
Blinn resumed football in 1948
after a lapse of 16 years. Head
Coach Frank Butler has faced a
re-building job.
Only four lettermen remain from
the 1950 squad. Among these are:
Douglas Thames, 155-pound half
back from Rumble; Wesley Davis,
center from Waelder; Earl Ger-
sten berger, 236-pound tackle from
Rockdale, a 60-minute player; and
Olen Armstron. end from Cameron.
Backing these veterans will be
William Gaskamp, a half back
from Brenham who won an All-
State berth while playing there.
Gaskamp also won a freshman
numeral with Rice last year.
Bob Holick is the team’s most
unique player. Holick handles
kickoff and points after touch
downs without the benefit of
shoes, preferring to do his kick
ing barefooted.
Coach Butler came to Blinn as
head mentor in 1949. Butler play
ed college football with Texas
University before the war, parti
cipating in the 1944 Cotton Bowl
game against Randolph, Field.
After serving with the Navy
during World War II, he returned
to college at Southwestern Univer
sity at Georgetown, where he let
tered in 1946 and 1947.
Here is a breakdown of the
squad which began workouts last
week and which also furnishes a
This year, with the aid of Blaine,
DeRouen, and Hudgins, Garmany,
and Gabriel, the Aggies hope to
stay in the lower berth.
Bruce Drummond will be the
Sooners number one man. He cov
ered the two-mile distance in 9:59
in last year’s meet, to win over
the Cadets. The SWC record for
the event is 9:30.
Drummond will be backed by
juniors George McCormick, Bert
Vargas, and Ken Cooper.
On tap in the near future for
the Aggie runners is a two-mile
race with Oklahoma A&M.
Following this meet will be a
series of cross-country inns against
TU and Arkansas, last year’s SWC
champions.
The Cadets also meet TU and
North Texas in a three-cornered
contest, and the last tilt of the
cross-country season will be the
SWC meet sometime in November
at Fayetteville, Ark.
In 1950, the Aggies dropped the
cross-country title which they had
held for three years, to the Razor-
backs.
This season, with Blaine, De
Rouen, Garmany, Hudgins, and Ga
briel in the running, the outlook
for the Aggies looks very optimis
tic.

Aggie Halfback In Action
BASED ON AP REPORTS
Oklahoma University, last year’s
“national champions,” opened its
1951 season Saturday by coasting
to .a 49-7 victory over hapless Wil
liam and Mary while 38,000 Nor
man fans watched.
Coach Bud Wilkinson then left
Norman by plane for Dallas where
he watched the Aggies edge Tech,
20-7. His only comment about the
Aggies .was, “the Aggies have a
great team speed this year.”
Wilkinson’s Sooner ran up a, 42-
7 half-time lead and played out
the last half with second and third
stringers in a contest marked by
frequent penalties.
Rated No. 4 in Nation
The bitterly-fought contest end
ed with the OU substitutes failing
on a fourth down try for a touch
down from the 5-yard line. Joe
Megale of the Indians and Jerry
Wilkes of Oklahoma were banished
from the game for fighting a min
ute before the final gun.
The Sooners showed a dozen fast
backs and a young but hard-charg
ing line. The seven touchdowns
were scored by six different play
ers, with Right Halfback Frank
Silva contributing two.
The Soonei’s scored in five plays
from the William and Mary 15-
yard line When the game was just
two and a half minutes old, Silva
going over from the three. Jim

Weatherall, All-American tackle,
made the first of his six successful
conversion tries.
The score was set up by End
Gene Ball, who knocked Ted Rol
ler loose from the ball on the 15.
Guard Bert Clark recovered for
OU.
Bad Pass From Center
The Sooners scored again five
minutes later when Buck Mc-
Phail took a handoff from Quar
terback Eddie Crowder and
rambled 57 yards without being
touched.
The third touchdown came after
a bad fourth-down pass from the
William and Mary center. Weath
erall caught Dickie Lewis on the
six and Silva went over on the
first play for OU.
In the second quarter, Crowder
scored from a yard out on a keeper
play. Then the Indians made their
only score on a sensation 48-yard
pass from Lewis to Ed Mioduszew-
ski. Quinby Hines converted.
The Sooners made it 35 to 7 on
Billy Vessels’ pass to Silva, Ves
sels pass covering 13 yards. A min
ute later Sooner End Hugh Bal
lard intercepted a Lewis heave on
his 25 and roared 75 yards to score.
The final score was made by
Quarterback Jack Ging, who dived
over from the one-yard line in the
third quarter.

A&M Halfback Augie Saxe (46) plows through

tackle Saturday against Texas Tech. His colli
sion with Tech Fullback Charles Welton (30)
and End Dean White (82) brought Saxe to earth.

The Southwest Conference blast
ed the lid off another weekend of
football. While winning four and
dropping two, the Conference again
survived with a better winning
average, the same as last week.
A&M continued it’s winning
ways with a 20-7 win over a stub
born Texas Tech squad. Texas
looked good beating Purdue 14-0.
Arkansas came through as expect
ed but had to wait until the third
quarter before they could beat
Arizona State, 30-13. TCU easily
over ran Nebraska 28-7.
SMU and Rice were the only
losing teams during the weekend.
Both clubs fell to intersectional
foes. The Mustangs losing a close
one to Ohio State 7-0. Clemson
proved too much for the Rice Soph
omores’s 20-14.
Texas 14,..Purdue 0
The Longhorns, sparked by their
crushing half back Gib Dawson,
scored twice in the first half to
increase their grip on their high
national rating. This was all the
TU boys needed to win.
Gib Dawson, no bull in Texas’
china closet, found it easier to go
around a rugged Purdue line than
through it Saturday.
So around he went to score all
the points the Longhorns needed
for a 14-0 .intersectional victory
over the Big Ten’s Boilermakers
before 31,000.
All the scoring came in the first
half and never before has the pass
ing Southwest sent out a represen
tative so addicted to the ground.
Texas ran for 215 yards but tried
only three passes and completed
not a one.
The Longhorn defense managed
to snag four of Dale Samuels’
tosses at opportune moments and
helped along by six Purdue fum
bles, three of them recovered by
Paul Williams.
Purdue’s operrtng-game mistakes
didn’t dull the battling performance
of its line. Ray Pacer, Leo Sugar
and a jaw breaking end named Jim
Wojciehowski were constant thorns
in the side of the Steers.
Texas went most of the way
without three of its stoutest de
fenders—June Davis, Bill Milburn
and Bill Georges. They were hurt
early in thfe game and saw no more
service. But the big Orange line
stood the test well, giving up most
of Purdue’s 144 ground yardage be
tween the 30s and leveling solidly
once the Boilermakers’ four minor
and one major scoring threats be
came real.

Arkansas 30, Arizona State 13
Heavily favored Arkansas start
ed very slowly and didn’t gain full
speed until the third quarter then
they finally set back a surprising
Arizona State eleven 30-13.
The spirited Sun Devils from
the Border Conference built up a
13-6 halftime lead, and it I’emained
for Lamar McHan, a big blond
sophomore triple-threater, to pull
it out of the fire for the Razor-
backs.
McHan, operating at both quar
terback and fullback in Arkansas’
split T attack, passed for two
touchdowns and helped tremend
ously to set up all of the other
Razorback scoring including an 11-
yard field goal by Pat Summerall.

TCU 28, Nebraska 7
The Frogs took advantage of all
the breaks and made a few of their
own as they crushed Nebraska 28-7.
Malvin Fowler, sophomore sensa
tion, again over shadowed the great
Gil Bartosh, who saw action in only
one series of downs.
A crowd of 38,000 saw the Texas
club score twice in. the first four
and one-half minutes of the second
quarter to wipe out a 7-0 Ne
braska lead, gained in the opening
period.
The Nebraska score had. come
largely through a Texas Christian
pass interference penalty in the
end zone. But this break was erased
on the second play of the second
quarter.
That was when Quarterback
Johnny Bordogna fumbled the ball
on the Nebraska 8, the ball rolling
backward into the end zone where
End Wayne Martin of TCU fell on
it for the tieing touchdown.
But the fourth Texas Christian
touchdown in the last period was
the one that really gave the crowd
its biggest share of laughs and
sobs. The events leading up to it
started when Nebraska fumbled
and TCU got the ball on the 28.
TCU promptly fumbled it back to
Nebraska, immediately fumbling it
back once more to TCU on the 28.
This time TCU went the distance.
Nebraska, played without All-
American Bob Reynolds, who was
sidelined with a shoulder injury.
However, Nebraska showed nothing
in the way of the kind of an ex
plosive offensive line that so con
stantly broke Reynolds into the
open last year, and it is doubtful
that Reynolds - could have staved
off this kicking.

Despite the sensational efforts
of passer Fred Benners, SMU
quarterback, the Mustangs slipped
before a highly-rated Ohio State
Buckeye eleven.
Benners amassed a total of 21
completions out of 29 attempts,
for 211 passing yards. SMU had
to be satisfied with 38 yards gain
ed rushing.
The Ohio scoring play was- a
sensational one. The Bucks pick
ed up the ball on a pass intercep
tion on their own 32V2-yard line
and aided by a roughness penalty,
moved in six plays to the Mustang
