Heavily favored to repeat as

der stars” will be out to test
their talent against more compe
tition than they will meet again
until the Texas Relays April 4-5.
In winning the meet which will
be the Maroon and White’s first
concern, they may score more
points than the 77 1/3 of last year.
They may also exceed the num-
The Aggie Golf team will
see action for the first time
this year when they play host
to Hardin-Simmons College
March 12 here.
Hardin-Simmons will also be
aflded to their traveling schedule
with another meet set for April
16 in Abilene.
Joe Fagan will coach Aggie golf
ers this year, taking over the post
formerly held by Bryan Country
Club professional Gayther Nowell.
^ Lettermen Johnny Barrett, Bil
ly Baker, and J. C. Fletcher will
return to Fagan’s team this sea
son. Newcomer help will come
from Malcolm Douglas in an at
tempt to wrestle the team title
Texas.
M^^ie Aggies golfers have not
won the title since 1948.
Bari'ett will probably hold down
the number one spot with the
number two position being held
by Baker or Douglas.
Fletcher, who broke his finger
last winer, may not be in shape in
time to make the top four, j
All the Cadet home matches
have been scheduled over the col

ber of firsts, 10, which they came
home with in 1951. Chances are
good for perhaps 5 new Aggie
records, if track and weather con
ditions permit.
A&M’s Weight Giant
Darrow Hooper, A&M’s weight
giant, may crack both shot and
discuss records of 51 ft. 1014 in.
and 165 ft. 10(4 in. respectively
and is almost a cinch to win both.
The shot record which he set
last year is sure to fall.
Ed Wilmsen, who won the 880
in 1:57.4 last year has a good
chance to break the 1:56.0 for
A&M and Bobby Ragsdale, barring
a recuring leg injury, may eclipse
the 23 ft. 6 % in. broad jump if
-the runway has been improved over
last year.
The mile, won by John Garmany
of A&M last year, will see a duel
between Aggie Jim Blaine and
Oklahoma A&M’s Fred Echoff
which may x-esult in breaking Ag
gie J. D. Hampton’s record of
4:18.7.
Davis Favored
Although Buddy Davis and Don
Graves, last year’s high jump co
winner for A&M will be jumping,
it is extremely doubtful if Aggie
Pete Watkin’s record of 6 ft. 714
in. will faill although Davis will
be favored to win.
Other firsts for the Farmers
should come in the 440-yard dash,
John DeWitt or Bob Mays; the
pole vault on Malcolm Mai'ks,
Glenn Spradlin, and Gx'ave’s jumps;
and the mile relay team.
Don Mitchell won last year’s
440 and anchored the winning mile
relay for the Aggies and Jack
Simpson won the pole vault.
The mile relay for 1952 of Bud
dy Schaefer, John DeWitt, Mays
and James Baker looks like the
best since 1949 but is not likely
to break the 3:17.1 record set at
that time by A&M.
Charles Hudgins, the defending
2-mile champion for A&M, will
have to beat his 9:59.5 of last year
but does not even then look like
the winner this yeax-.
A&M won the 440 relay last
year but Texas is loaded with
sprint talent again and should

win this one possibly breaking the
42.1 record.
Another prospective Aggie first
is Bill Bless, SWC low hurdle
champ, who should take the La
redo event.
This all adds up to a lot tough
er time for the Aggies this year
and it is doubtful if they will re
peat last year’s performance but
will probably end the evening with
at least eight first and about 60
points.

Fish Diamond Wine
Meets Biinn Friday.
A promising Fish baseball squad
will clash with Blinn Junior Col
lege Friday afternoon on Kyle
Field.
This will be the first ga,me of
the Fish’s 11-game schedule that
includes games with Baylor, Texas,
Rice, Wharton, and Blinn.
March 14 the Aggie Fish will
travel to Brenham for the return
battle with Blinn.
The Fish are. blessed with three
pitchers that have shown better
than average ability. Jerry Nelson,
Tex Vanzura, and Jimmy Knutson
are rated 1-2-3 in that order.
Nelson will probably get the nod
to pitch in the Blinn game. Jimmy
Williams looks like the number
one receiver behind the plate.
The infield will probably shape
into something like this: Don
Wesch, first base; Fi’ank Pollard;
second base; Jimmie Parrish, thix-d
base; and Claude Northup at short
stop.
