A&M copi es TU ON KYLE FIELD: AUSTIN STILL MOANS By BOB SELLECK Battalion Sports Editor A&M and TU ended their 58th gridiron battle on Kyle Field Thursday with a game that will long be remembered. The Cadets overran a favored Longhorn squad to win 22-21, a great victory for 19 departing Aggie seniors. Combining efforts of all Cadets playing 60-minute ball enabled the Aggies to overcome a Texas 14-7 lead and trounce the Longhorns for the first time since 1939. It was the El Campo Ghost, Glenn Lippman scampering all over the field never scoring but rolling up 173 yards in 19 carries to lead the offensive punch. Yale Lary, Darrow Hooper, Buddy Shaeffer, Dick Gar- demal, and Johnny Salyer showed the way with their sparkl ing offensive and defensive play. Dick Gardemal, Cadet quarterback, engineered the whole attack, pulling some surprise quarterback sneaks that always came at the right time for necessary yardage. Gardemal mixed his plays well and kept the TU defense guessing all afternoon. Dick, who has been sharing duties with Ray Graves all season, had the game all to himself and made the most of it. He completed four out of eight passes for 70 yards, one a touchdown pass to Yale Lary. Perfect Weather Playing in perfect football weather, the Aggies started right from the first as if they meant to really win by driving from their own 36 deep into Texas territory. Billy Tidwell, Cadet halfback, took the ball on the TU 14-yard line, started to his left; was momentarily caught behind the line of scrimmage; reversed his field and went, all the way for the score. Dick Gardemal and Glenn Lippman threw key blocks that paved the way for the onrushing Tidwell. Darrow Hooper added the extra point and the Aggies led 7-0 with just a little more than four minutes gone in the game. Texas Scores Before the Cadet fans had time to stop yelling, Dick Ochoa, TU fullback, broke through right tackle and lateraled to Gib Dawson on his own 40-yard line. Dawson went the rest of the distance untouched to put the University lads back in the game. . June Davis kicked the PAT and the score was all tied up, 7-7. Texas’ hard-running ground game started rolling late in the second quarter and was climaxed when Dick Ochoa, keeping the ball this time, scored from the one-yard line. The half ended with the Cadets trailing the Austin boys 14-7. The last half told a different story with the Aggies putting on a show never seen by the two clubs in the history of their rivalry. A&M received the kick-off and started a series of downs on their own 15. Gardemal kept the ball on a surprise bootleg and scooted for 17 yards through the stunned Steers.

The f Allies objected to all four. The Reds may have other re- | strictions- the Allies don’t like. But * these four came out in response to lengthy questioning by United Na tions delegates in a newly created subcommittee: • The Reds would be free to build air fields during an armistice. So would the U.N. command. Bqt the Allies have plenty and the Reds haven’t a single usable field in Korea. • Neutral inspection would be limited strictly to ports of entry. The Allies want inspection teams Tree to go anywhere in Korea. • A ban on troop rotation. That bould mean an end to American Veterans coming home after a year of service. • No interference with or in spection of any reconstruction in 1 Korea. Communist newsmen at [ Panmunjom said much construc- | tion work in North Korea is un derground and the Reds don’t want t the Allies to know where if is. The new subcommittee—two men from each side—was created today in an effort to beat a Dec. 27 deadline. A previous subcommittee drew a cease-fire line across the front to become effective if an ar mistice is signed by Dec. 27. That first subcommittee took more than three months. Tries Speed-up Vice-Adm. C. Turner Joy, head of the five-man U.N. command negotiating team, tried to get more speed into negotiations. He pro posed another subcommittee be ere- Odessa Cleans House as Polio Sweeps City ated to. start work on a clause for exchanging prisoners. North Ko rean Lt. Gen. Nam II said he would give an answer. But he didn’t say when. There is one other point neces sary for an armistice, That' is fec- opimendations to belligerent gov ernments on the ■ ultimate ' with drawal of foreign troops. Ba be Migh t be Reason Aggies Ran Over Steers Thursday Soothsayers might say there were a lot of things that contributed to the Aggies winning the Turkey Day Game. Some might say it was the biggest bonfire in recent history. Others say it was just luck. But the desk clerk in the MSG thinks he has the real cause. He is Babe Lopez. Babe has been for the college for the past 27 years. Most of this time was spent in the old Aggieland Inn. All during the time he was working for the college, he never saw an A&M football game. It always worked out that the desk clerk was on duty Saturday afternoon or night. This week, Chris Gent, assistant to the director, decided to give Babe a chance. He told Babe to go to the game. Babe went. The Aggies won. You name it. He might have been the good luck piece the Aggie squad needed when they went out on the field. So when the soothsayers get together, here is another story for them to consider when they figure out why and how A&M broke the 11 year old Jinx.

This West Texas oil and ranch center staged a mammoth cleanup drive yesterday in an ef fort to halt an epidemic of polio sweeping through the city and I / ! Ector county. A total of 62 persons have suf fered from polio since the first of the year—including three new cases reported yesterday. Nine have died. Also prompting the cleanup were 53 cases of infant diarrhea which developed last week. The clean-up campaign turned out thousands of citizens in work clothes. Many stores closed. Others operated with skeleton crews of women. Neighboring towns sent 120 trucks and drivers. Housewives furnished hot coffee, • food and water for the workers. Between 500 and 1000 truck loads 1 of trash were hauled to two emerg- I ency dump grounds outside the! city and burned. Hundreds of children have been ! .■evacuated from the disease-stricken 1 city since the seige began. Yes- . f terday only 4,780 of the 9,885 en- • , / rolled pupils attended school. ***’' X There have been 50 cases in the • city in November and December. Two were reported elsewhere in the county.

Aa j Harold Kittleband Rotarians Hold Ladies Day At Weekly Meet It was Ladies Day at the Wednesday meeting of the Bryan-College Station Rotary Club. Rotarians in large num bers brought their Rotary Anns who drew for partners and sat, not by their husbands, but by the Rotarian whose name they drew. Mrs. Dick Hickerson introduced the Rotary Anns at her table as did Mrs. Fred Weick, Mrs. Russell Hillier and Mrs. George W. Schles- selman. The program consisted of a num ber of thanksgiving hymns sung by a vocal trio of Bryan girls, Mary Ellen Fussell, Norma Lois Taylor, and Mary Beth Dowling. The sing ing was followed by two readings by Mrs. Walter Deleplane of Col lege Station, entitled “I Like Americans” by Millett and.a. hum orous reading from Mr. Dooly by Peter Dunn on corruption and! graft in politics.

He is a former president of the Beaumont Chapter AIB, and has served as instructor for the AIB course, “Consumer Credit.” His Father Knows Best? Recently the Amarillo Times ran the following brite: It seems there was a father who had become disgusted with the over-emphasis on football, and resolved to send his son to a school that didn’t have a foot ball team at all. The youngster was duly en rolled at Texas A&M. (Editor’s Note: What was the score against TU ?) Ag Jack Little Named At i-American—Look — mm ■ Be T . B ': m i. Jack Little Look Magazine All-American Offensive Tackle Coaches Select Jack Little, A&M’s mighty 220 pound tackle, was named today to Look Magazine’s All-American offensive team by sportswriter Grantland Rice and the Football Writers Asso ciation of America. Little was among four players from the Southwest Con ference to make Look’s mythical team for 1951. Others se lected from the Southwest were End Stan Williams and Quar terback Larry Isbell of Baylor, and Halfback Bobby Dillon on the defense. Little had already received honors from the AP and UP sportswriters for all-conference pickings. Colliers magazine also announced him to their regional All-American team from ■♦the Southwest this week. Playing on the offense for the Aggies most of the time, Little was also the man who stayed on the field many times when offensive and defensive platoons were switching places. Aggie Coach Ray George said about him after the Oklahoma Uni versity game, which A&M won 14-7, “Chalk up one perfect per formance for Jack Little, a junior performer or should we say a pro on a varsity eleven.” Little, Lary, Meyer Named To All-Conference Teams Dallas, Dec. 4—OP)—Jack Little, Yale Lary and Hugh Meyer were named for the 1951 All Southwest Conference Team. They were se lected by the coaches of the seven conference schools. It is an unusual team in many respects—one man made a posi tion on both offensive and defen sive platoons and brothers—the Forestei's of Southern Methodist— each got a place. Unanimous Choice Unanimous choices were Gib Dawson and Bobby Dillon, Texas halfbacks, and Bill Athey, Baylor guard. However, Howton got the most votes, being picked for either offense or defense on every ballot and being named for both on some. Dawson was picked for offense only and Dillon and Athey for de fense. Dick Hightower, Southero Meth odist center, got only one vote fewer than Howton, being named •for both platoons but not getting enough votes for offense. Little, Texas A&M tackle,, received the full seven votes—the seven South west Conference coaches picked the teams—but his ballots were dis tributed between offense and de fense. Bob Griffin of Arkansas was picked for both tackle, center and linebacker, ending up at tackle. The Offensive Team Ends— Bill Howton, Rice, and Stan Williams, Baylor; Tackles— Jack Little, Texas A&M, and Dave Hanner, Arkansas; Guards—Har ley Sewell, Texas, and Herschel Forester,.Southern Methodist; Cen ter—Hugh Meyer, Texas A&M; Backs—Larry Isbell, Baylor; La mar McHan, Arkansas, Ray Mc- Kown, Texas Christian and Gib Dawson, Texas.

Army ROIC Men Deferred From Draft By ASSOCIATED PRESS Washington — A memoran dum which virtually defers from the draft all college students now in Army Re serve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) units was signed Thurs day by Anna Rosenberg, assist ant Secretary of Defense. Aides of Mrs. Rosenberg said the memorandum told the army it could order local draft boards to defer up to 129,500 men in ROTC units. Congress last year gave the Sec retary of Defense the right to or der the deferments and to set de ferment quotas for the various services. Until yesterday’s order the num ber the army could order deferred was somewhat lower than the number enrolled in the Army ROTC units. This allowed draft boards to take a number of men who were in the units. Since these training units are the army’s major source of offi cers, it requested the defense sec retary to change the quotas. Mrs. Rosenberg’s memorandum said that 53,000 men could be de ferred in the first year basic ROTC class, 39,000 in the second year basic, 19,500 in the first year ad vanced class and 18,000 in the sec ond year advanced. The four groupings correspond roughly to the four college classes. The present enrollment in the last three groups is slightly lower than the quotas Mrs. Rosenberg authorized. To get into an Army ROTC unit all a student has to do is sign up when he enters college. Many col leges require some ROTC training for graduation. Actually, Mrs. Rosenberg’s me morandum allows only an addition al 3,700 deferments more than the army’s previous quota. But it shifts the various class quotas by 12,000 and 5,000 respectively, College Station Lions Plan Benefit Wrestling Matches Football Family Little hails from a football play ing family.

Bones Irvin Speaks At Harlingen Meet Harlingen, Dec. 4 —IZP)— Ath letic Director Barlow (Bones) Ir vin of Texas A&M says college conferences should follow the ex ample of the Texas Interscholastic League. “There are plenty of faults in college athletics today,” Irvin told the quarterback club here last night, “and there are plenty of good points, but colleges could fol low the TIL in how it guides Texas high schools and high school ath letics.”
