Outstanding In SMU Game
Sliaelfer, Nohavitza Given
Top Honors For SMU Tilt
Elo Nohavitza
For his excepional work and aggressive playing, Nohavitza has
been named the outstanding offensive lineman of the week. Elo
is one of the smallest lineman on the team but makes up for his
size with lots of spirit, hustle, and hard work.
Elo Nohavitza, the “watch
charm” guard from El Campo, has
been voted offensive Lineman of
the Week by The Battalion for his
outstanding line play in the A&M-
SMU game last Saturday.
The smallest guard on the squad,
Nohavitza weighs 185 pounds, al
though line coach Paul McMurtry
claims he weighs closer to 180.
Standing 5. feet ten inches tall,
Nohavitza is a senior who has two
varsity letters and played 104 min
utes during the 1950 season,
Team Leader
One of the team leaders, Noha-
vitz'a is also company, commander
of A Athletics, and maintains an
“A” and “B” scholastic average.
In spite of his stature, Nohavitza
is the most aggressive lineman on
the Aggie Squad. He has been the
starting offensive guard for all
the Maroon and White games this
year.
Besides being a good blocker in
the line, Nohavitza is able to move
quickly for outside blocking.
Given Honorable Mention
Last year the United’ Press gave
Nohavitza honorable mention for
All-American, and he had been
aptly described as being built like
a small, but fast, tank.
Coach McMurtry said, “Elo is an
unheralded player, but is the type
that never gives up and is still
going wtien the whistle blows.
Probably the best guard on pull
ing out and blocking the end and
downfield,” continued McMurtry,
B Athletics Pass A Infantry
To Top Corps Championship
By JOE BLANCHETTE
Battalion Intramural Writer
The inevitable meeting finally
came about last night but the re
sults were not the expected. The
athletes of B Company took the
court in a fired up mood but the
A Infantry quintet couldn’t match
shots with the winners. The ath
letes took the game, 40-19.
The difference between the two
clubs was a lad by the name of
Mai Douglas. Douglas made the
impossible shots all night to chalk
up 19 points and pace the scorers.
The remaining difference which
is shown in the score was a boy
by the name of Ed Sandlin who
pi’actically lived under the back-
board and gave the athletes full
control of the rebounding oval.
The only bright lights for the
infantrymen were two cagers by
the names of Charlie Smith and
Harold Hudspeth. The Infantry’s
usual ace, Ed Moses, was complete
ly slowed up and just never could
generate the steam necessary to
keep the losers in the contest.
Smith, on the other hand, along
with Hudspeth racked up a com
bined total of 14 points. Smith hit
for the eight and Hudspeth for
six. • •
Game Begins
After .the usual pre-game warm
up the game started. It began
in a quiet enough vein with Doug
las fouling Hudspeth. Hudspeth
missed the free shot and the In
fantrymen blew the only chance
they had to lead at least once in
the game.
Douglas took the throw-in from
Dishman and finally maneuvered
himself into the far corner and
TODAY & FRIDAY
sank a beautiful two-pointer.
The infantrymen took the ball
but could do nothing and after
only one shot at the basket yielded
the ball to the athlete’s Sandlin
as he began his domination of the
ball.
Again, Douglas headed for the
corner and again he sank another
two-pointer to place the winners
in a 4-0 lead.
Sandlin followed the Douglas tal
ly with a gift shot and made it
with the simplicity and boredom
that comes only from having made
many before it. Following the
Sandlin tally Jim Dishman was
fouled and sank the free throw to
rack up a 6-0 lead over the In
fantry.
Infantry Tallies
Pumpkin Pybus, Infantry for
ward, finally took the initiative for
his club and racked up the first
two points to narrow the margin
to 6-2 and the fans still thought
they were in for a battle royal.
Dishman followed with another
gift toss and the score rose 7-2.
Again the bright light shown for
the infantrymen and Hudspeth tal
lied a set shot to narrow the mar
gin to 7-4.
Jerry Lasteljck took the event
ual winners and champions ‘further
ahead with a set shot but the in
fantry was still trying gallantly
to stay in the battle .and Charley

Smith hit on a quarter court shot
to set the score at 9-6.
From this point on the fans set
tled down and the athletes began
their runaway. Sandlin hit a free
shot and Douglas hit in a set
shot to run the score up to 12-6.
Dishman continued his fancy foot
work for the night and hit on a
quarter court shot. This gave the
score a slightly top-heavy look of
16-6.
Infantry Tries
John Kreiger attempted in vain
to rejuvenate the infantrymen by
sinking a free shot but it was to
no avail as the athletes continued
to gallop at top speed.
Douglas hit on a free shot and
then retreated to his favorite cor
ner to sink another field goal and
build the score to 19-7.

“he played a good game Saturday,
both on offense and defense.”
Nohavitza is, one of the three
offensive or defensive starters .on
the squad that hail from El Campo,
the other two are Glenn Lippman
and Jaro Netardus.
One of the main reasons that Ag
gie backs have been able to go for
long gains this year is because No
havitza is usually out in front lead
ing the way.
Nohavitza has been' a consistant
player in all the games this year
and is definite asset to the fine Ca
det forward wall, he is a yard
wide and has a great heart.
Shaeffer
Robert (Buddy) Shaeffer is The
Battalion’s choice for the top de
fensive man of the week for his
brilliant linebacking job in the Ag
gie-Mustang battle last Saturday
ori Kyle Field.
In the Horned Frog tilt, Shaef
fer. showed the tans a preview of
things to come, when he got into
the game and stopped the TCU
backs before they could get up
steam.
Outstanding TCU Game
Besides his outstanding defen
sive play in the TCU contest,
Shaeffer caught one pass good for
ten yeards. Pie intercepted one
pass, recovered a Horned Frog
fumble, received credit for three
clean tackles and two assists.
Although he didn’t start in the
Baylor game, Shaeffer, made two
clean tackles and six assists, be
sides intercepting a Larry Isbell
pass.
The next week at Fayetteville,
Shaeffer came in on defense stop
ping plays many times behind the
line of scrimmage.
Snags 27 Yard Pass
Playing a little more offense
than usual in, the Razorback bat
tle, the El Paso lad carried the
pigskin one, time for one yard arid
snagged a pass that went for 27
yards.
Last week on Kyle Field Shaef
fer was definitely the best defen
sive player on the A&M squad as
he made six clean tackles and 14
assists.

Against Rice this Saturday in
Houston, Shaeffer will probably
start on offense and might see ac
tion as a linebacker although Jim
Fowler who is the regular starter
is ready to play.

Shaeffer who has been a half
back for the past two seasons has
carried the ball only once this year
since he was shifted to end.
In the pass receiving depart

two opponents aerials for four-
