THE BATTALION
Page 3
TCU To Seek Revenge
Over Unbeaten A&M
Texas Christian University set
tle down for workouts this week,
is seeking revenge after its sur
prising loss to the surging Texas
Tech Raiders.
The game will mark the first
SWC test for the Cadets who will
bring a perfect x’ecord against non
title foes into the game.
The Frogs after an opening game
defeat, bounced back to win their
only Conference tussle by whipping
Arkansas 17-7. Last week, disaster
struck the Frog camp as they lost
to Tech 33-19.
Despite this over-whelming set
back, it can be assumed that the
Frogs just had a bad day for
which the cause can never exactly
be determined.
Head TCU Coach Dutch Meyer
will have his Frog grid eleven
shaped to provide the Aggies with
the usual rough and tumble and
unpredictable conference clashes of
the Southwest.
pounds and tjje backs around 18Q.
They have" '21 returning letter-
men which includes four key posts
manned by juniors. They are quar
terback, fullback, one end, and cen
ter.
Frogs will definitely have a two-
platoon system. Coach Meyer goes
to the extent of teaching his de
fensive players only enough signals
to fill in on the attack if badly
needed.
The team will operate from two
formations. They are the “Meyer
Spread” and a modified double
wing.
“Meyer Spread”
Their “spread”, which gained
much popularity in the Southwest
last season, is run from a balanced
line with guards and tackles in
normal positions or split slightly
out as the defense demands.
The ends are split out several
yards from the tackles, with the
halfbacks stationed in the split be
tween tackle and end, a yard back.
The fullback takes position in line
with the halfback and the tailback
is in normal position.
In 1950, the Frog offense was
much more potent than the de
fense. Ten opponents gained an
average of 279.3 yards against the
Frogies. Coach Meyer has had ex
tensive work with his “stop ’em”
unit this fall in an effort to cut
down the excessive damage.
Departing sharply from the cus
tom of many years, the team does
not have regular, full-season cap
tains. Game captains for offensive
and defensive units will be appoint
ed each week.
This game will be the 47th meet
ing of the old rivals which began
in 1897. Over the long years, the
Aggies have won 25 games, the
Frogs 17, and four were ties.
Second Aggie TD
Augie Saxe
Outrunning the defense, Saxe runs 61 yards to pay dirt for the
second Aggie score of the night on an end-around play. A senior
from Beaumont, Saxe was injured in the second quarter of play.
Gilbert Bartosh sparks the TCU
star-studded backfield. Bartosh
stands 5’ 10” and weighs around
170 pounds. In 1950 he completed
77 out of 150 passes for 1023
yards, carried the ball 171 times
for 862 yards.
He led the SWC with a total of
fense yardage of 1733. He figured
in 321 plays—100 more than any
other player in the conference. He
was fourth in the United States.
Frogs Have Knee Trouble
TCU has been hard hit by “knee
trouble”. After last year’s season
no less than four Frogs underwent
knee operations. They were Gil
bert Bartosh, Malvin Fowler, Keith
Flowers, and Bobby Harding.
So iar this year' Malvin Fowler
and Kieth Flowers have re-injured
themselves. Fowler to the extent
that he might be out for the rest
of the season.
Bobby Jack Floyd is the Frog
number one fullback. He is a fast
powerful runner despite his 200
pounds. Floyd led the team last
year scoring 48 points. He is a
, doubtful starter because of a hand
injury received in practice.
The Frogs possess two of the
best linebackers in the south. Keith
Flowers, 200 pound 6’ 1” senior,
•is great on the defensive team and
with his helper Doug Conaway,
220 pound, 6’ 2”, promises to give
the Cadet balhcarriers plenty of
trouble.
The Horned Frogs will have a
huge team, the line averages 200

Ti g ers Prepare To
Greet Waller High
The A&M Consolidated Tigers
will play their third district game
against Waller High School on
Friday night. Game time is sche
duled for 8 p. m. on Tiger Field.
Both teams are undefeated in
district play and a hard-fought con
test is expected.
The Waller eleven outweighs the
Tigers almost 20 pounds per man,
hut the Tiger’s spirit is high and
the game is expected to be a tight
battle.
In last week’s battle, the Tigers
took a close one from the Mag
nolia Bulldogs JO-19 on Thursday
night.
Trailing at the half 12-0, the
Tigers came back in the second
half with revived spirit and scored
six points immediately. Pinky
Cooner converted the extra point.
The next tally came on a 23 yard
dash by Arnold with Cooner miss
ing the extra point.
Jei’ry Leighton dashed 55 yards
for the 'Tiger’s final score with
Cooner kicking the extra point,
which proved to be the game-win
ning factor.
George Johnson was the only
Tiger injury during the game.
However, he reported for Monday
practice in good shape and will be
ready for Friday night’s game.
Elizabeth, Duke
Visiting in Canada
Windsor, Ont., Oct. 16—UP)—
Princess Elizabeth and the Duke of
Edinburgh thrilled Canadians and
Americans in this border city yes
terday before flying into Canada’s
gold-mining back country.
And what impressed them most
was the friendly relations between
the two countries separated here
only by the Detroit River.
Estimates of the crowd that lined
the 21-mile procession route to
see the next ruler of the British
Empire and her husband ranged
from 200,000 to 500,000.
Highlight of the three-hour-plus
Windsor tour was an international
ceremony on the river front, only
a few thousand feet from Detroit.
With Detroit’s skyline providing
a backdrop on a brilliantly clear
day, the Princess and Duke met
the first American officials. In
fact, Michigan’s Governor G. Men-
nen Williams presented the Duke
a bow tie from his own big col
lection.

Fish Tangle With
Heavy Wog Lineup
By GUS BECKER
Battalion Sports Writer
Two of the strongest SWC fresh
man elevens will tangle on Kyle
Field, Thursday night at 7:30,
when the TCU Wogs meet the Ag
gie Fish.
The Wogs, who lost to the Rice
Owlets in Houston, 21-13, have
been preparing extra hard for
their game here.
The forward wall of the Wogs
averages 211 pounds and will pro
bably be the largest the Fish will
face all season.
Small But Big
Coach Walter Roach describes
his freshman team as the. “Small
est in numbers; biggest in size!”
Only 36 Wogs reported for prac
tices but most of these were huge
linemen who weigh over 220
pounds.
Claude Roach, 248, and Billy Joe
Stephenson, 238, who were stars
for Fort Worth’s Arlington Heights
High team of last year are the
stai-ting tackles and the mainstays
of the monstrous Wog line.
Maclin at Guard
At right guard will be the cat-
quick 180 pounder from Fort
Worth’s Carter-Aiverside, Roland
Maclin. Maclin is the lightest start
ing lineman.
Leon Moore, 210, from Slaton
will be in the left guard post and
Dale Brakehill, 190, from Abilene
will be at center.
Wingmen for the Wogs will be
Weldon Dacus of Brady and John
Nickens of Sikeston, Missouri, both
weighing 205 pounds.
The backfield will have Ronald
Clinkscale also from the Fort
Worth Arlington. Heights team,
starting at quarterback.
E. Mack Watson of Temple will
be at left half and his running
mate at right half will be Waylon
Buchanan of Naples. Jimmy Rod
gers of San Juan or Gene Gamer
of Colorado City will be in the
fullback slot.
Dacus Against Owlets
Dacus scored for the Wogs
against the Owlets on a 41-yard
pass from Clinkscale. Clinkscale
connected with Dacus twice more
for yardage totaling 35 yards in
the Wogs second touchdown surge.
Jack Graf of Mercedes who
scored the second TCU touchdown
is also the place kicker of the
team.
The Wogs have been ironing
out flaws and practicing blocking
in preparation for Thursday’s tilt.
The Aggie Fish have been unde
feated thus far this season, and
will be out to avenge the 60-0
licking they suffered last season
at the hands of the Wogs.
The Maroon and White Fish have
scored victories over Blinn Mem
orial College, 28-13, and the Bay-
los Cubs last week 40-20.
Fish line play looked very im
pressive last week against the
Cubs and should be able to hold
their own against the huge Wog
frontal wall.
Sparking the Fish line will be
Marvin Tate, 185 pound guard from
Abilene; Sidney Theroit, 185, from
Gibson, Louisiana; Leo Marquette,
225, from Marrero, Lauisiana;
Lawrence Winkler, 200 pounder
from Temple; and Lyman Preston,
215, from Austin.
End Joe Schero
Ends will be Joe Schero, 165,
from San Antonio; Paul Kennon,
177, from Shreveport, Louisiana;
Bennie Sinclair, 180, from Mineola;
and Henry Clark, 202, from Mes
quite.
The strong Fish ground attack
features James Self, All State lad
from Wichita Falls, Gerald Sandus
ky, smashing fullback from Bronte,
Warren Anderson, 170 pound scat-
back from San Antonio, Bernie
Cook from Clyde, and Edward
Kacktik, a powerful fullback from
Rio Hondo.
Quarterbacks who will see ac-
tiion are Charles Killough, a Little
River product, Joel Smith of Lock
hart, Elwood Kettler from Bren-
ham, Charles Leverman from Mc
Allen and Charlie Howard who en
gineered a 65-yard pass play
against the Cubs.
The outlook for Thursday night
seems to be that a hard-fought
battle will develop, with the two
forward walls giving little ground.
