Ralph Ellis
Swim Captain
‘Casey Stengel Best Except
For Connie Mack’--Ty Cobb
New York, March 20—(TP)—Ex
cept for Connie Mack, Casey Sten
gel of the Yankees is the greatest
manager in baseball history—or at
least tied with John McGraw for
that honor.
That opinion is expressed by Ty
Cobb, one of the greatest of all-
time ball players, in an article
which opened last week with the
assertion that no modem player
expect Phil Rizzuto and Stan Mus-
ial could be considei’ed equal to
the old-time stars, Cobb takes the
managers over the hurdles.
Cobb—himself a f ormer manager
—criticizes Stengel for hit two-
platoon system—(“that’s one form
of modern 'percentage’ play which
is strictly hokum”—) but praises
his strategy and his handling of
players.
“The only thing that Stengel
has, and McGraw had, is the ad
vantage of a lot of money and a
front office willing to buy any ex
perienced player needed by the
team,” Cobb adds. “Mi\ Mack nev
er had any money and had to 1 de
velop his own playei-s; he was the
greatest manager ever known.”

Tennis Team
Plans For
ACC Match
The Ag-gie Tennis Team will
slam into Abilene Christian
College here at 8:30 p. m. Sat
urday, March 22. A&M lost a
hard fought battle four to two
to the University of Houston on all
sports day last Saturday.
Coach W. M. Dowell stated that
the team line-up would probably
remain the same as last time. At
the present Coach Dowell believes
that all the members of the team
will receive active duty before the
contest is over.
If no changes are made, Royce
Tate, Gene Letsos, R. G. DeBerry,
Ken Wagstaff, and Tommy West
will do their gymnastics in the
singles department, with Tate, Let
sos, West, and DeBerry in the
doubles.
Although the Varsity team will
schedule their matches Saturday,
the freshmen netters will probabiy
hold their scrimmage on Friday
afternoon, March 21.
Coach Dowell announced today
that the Aggie Tennis Team will
play host $o Miami University,
who boasts of one of the strongest
tennis teams in the nation, May 3.
He continued to say that Miami’s
team will probably be the best
ever to play at A&M.
Brooks Cut Six Men
Vero Beach, Fla., March 21—(IP)
—Manager Charley Dressen swung
the axe tonight and cut six names
from the Brooklyn Dodger squad.
Jack Banta, Jim Russell, Art Fab-
bro, Joe Landrum, Dick Teed and
Bill Antonello will all be left here
when the Brooks leave for Tampa
tomorrow to play the Reds.
TCU Beats OU;
SMU Raps HSU
TCU snapped a 5-game los
ing streak at the expense of
NCAA champion Oklahoma in
a nonconference baseball game
in Fort Worth Wednesday.
The Frogs pounded three Sooner
hurlers for eighteen hits and a 17-
3 shellacking.
The SMU Mustangs were also
victorious yesterday by beating
the Hardin-Simmons Cowboys 7-5.
A three-run blast in the eighth
put the same on ice for SMU.
TCU won the Sooners’ season
opener, but ended a 13-game win
ning streak for themselves that
began the middle of last season as
they marched to Big Seven and
NCAA titles.
Trackmen Travel to Houston;
Clash with Rice, TU in Meet
By RAY HOLBROOK
Battalion Sports Writer
Houston track fans will get a
chance to see the all-winning Ag
gie track team in action this Sat
urday at Rice field when the Owls
play host to the Cadets and TU.
This will be the second time in
as many weeks that these three
schools have gotten together, hav
ing met on Kyle Field for last
Saturday’s Sports Day with the
powerful Aggies victors by the
huge margin of 101 to 58 for the
Longhorns and only 11 for under
manned Rice Owls.
The Owls might have a little
better luck on their home field
Ag Basehallers Set
For Oh io State Nine
A&M and Ohio State will re
new their rivalry on the varsity
diamond at 3 p. m. this afternoon
in the first of a three-game series.
The Buckeyes will pick up where
they left off last year. They also
met the Cadets in a post-season
play-off for NCAA honors in
Omaha, Neb., last June with the
Aggies winning 3-2.
Ohio State Starters
Ohio State coach Marty Karow
probably will start Ed Bohnslav,
Paul Williams and Davie Bechtel
in each of the games as his pitcher.
Their relief is expected to come
from eight other moundsmen list
ed on the Buckeye roster.
Behind the plate will be Jack
Gannon, junior lettermen with re
lief coming in the form of Bill
Wisler, up from the B-team.
Infielders probably will be Bill
Sachs at first base, Dave Leonard
at second, Jack Jones at shortstop
with Charles Brontlinger or Bob
Blanchard at third.
Outfielders will be either Dick
Ernest or Harry Rutter in right,
Stewart Henin in center and Jim
Corn in left.
Inexperienced Squad
The Buckeyes are a young squad
with inexperienced sophomores and
freshmen in the vital infield and
outfield positions. Only the mound
corps lists any sort of experience
with the exception of Hein, a two-
numeral winner in center field.
Coach Bell will rely on some old
returnees of last year. Back are
men like Yale Lary, A1 Ogletree,
Hank Candelari, Joe Ecrette, Bill
Munnerlyn and Bob Tankersley.
Aggie Lineup
Rounding out the possible lineup
for the Aggies will be Charlie
Russel and Carl Menger with Lary
in the outfield.
Charlie Leissner looks like the
top shortstop to take Guy Wal-

lace’s place. He will be joined by
Munnerlyn at first, Ecrette at
second, and team captain Candelari
at third.
Either Ogletree or Martin Ham
ilton will get the starting nod be
hind the mask.
The starting pitcher will come
from the group composed of Mel-
but it is doubtful if they boost
their total to more than 15 or 20
points.
Texas on the other hand will be
trying to get a little closer to the
strong Maroon and White track-
sters who are heavy favorites to
annex their 14th straight win.
It is not likely that A&M will
ellipse the 101 points of last week
but competition is so strong among
the team members that the Aggies
are due for a letdown yet although
there is a likelihood of one in the
latter part of April when they have
two more meets with the Steers.
Favorites to win the ten first
of last Saturday for the Aggies
again this week are Darrow Hoop
er, undefeated shot and discus spe-
A&M Fencers
Place Second
A&M’s fencing team slash
ed its way_ into second place
Saturday in the Galveston
Tournament. The team’s year
old jinx caught up in the final
minutes of the contest, causing
them to lose by only one match.
A&M out paried teams from
Rice, Corpus Christi, Corpus Chris-
ti Naval Station, and a Houston
Composite team. The Aggies lost
five to four to Galveston after
being tied four to four in the final
minutes of the contest.
Captain of the team, John Gott
lob who finished the Galveston
meet with a nearly perfect score
of eight won, one lost, stated that
the Aggies should win the confer
ence.
The fencing team meet their next
victims in the Foil Tournament '
March 29 in Houston.
cialist; Bobby Ragsdale, the SWC
leading broad jumper and also un
defeated; either Buddy Davis or
Don Graves in the high jump, and
Glenn Spradlin or Malcolm Marks
on the pole vault.
Track winners for Col. Andy’s
cinder stars should include Ed
Wilmsen or J. A. Terry, the mutt
and jeff 880 twosome, either soph
omore Jim Blaine or John Gar-
many in the mile run and 2-mile
Charles Hudgins.
Rice’s Henry Winston is expect
ed to give Hudgins a rough time
in the stretch.
Sure Cadet Winner
An Aggies horse race in the
440-dash with the winner any of
three Aggies. James Baker, John
DeWitt, or Bob Mays could win.
Baker is the slight favorite after
his fine 48.4 last week.
The Cadet’s mile relay team
should win handily.
Texas stars will be led again
by their outstanding sophomore
sprinters Charley Thomas, last
Saturday’s high point man, and
Dean Smith. Hurdlers Ralph Per
son and Bill Vails are also due to
win along with their basketball
javelin thrower, Don Klein.
Point totals for the Cadets
should run about 90 for the Ag
gies with TU following with 60
or 65. However, if the Cadets
should drop to 80 or so you can
figure they have their eyes set on
several relay titles in the two
weeks since, Texas Relays, the na
tions first major relay carnival.
