CHS Tigers Battle Hempstead Tonight
Holder
By ED HOLDER
Sports Editor
Homecoming for the Baylor fans or not, the Aggies are
ready, willing and able to take over Saturday’s game and
move a notch higher in the SWC race.
The Maroon and White defensive platoon held down a
powerful TCU offense squad to only seven points. They
should be able to put the skids under Baylor. The Bears
have rolled up enough yards to rate number one spot in the
conference in total offense.
Coach Ray George saw a powerful ground game in the
Aggies last week when they rolled 82 yards down the field
in 19 plays for their touchdown. Ray Graves can quarterback,
run, and throw to add that extra punch to the drives of Con
nie Magouirk and Don Ellis. When they combine these fac
tors into a paying offense, the sky is the limit.
Last week Marshall Rush, All-America Jack Little, and
Walter (Horror) Hill put up a defensive fight that displayed
a spirit long absent from the Aggies.
That hustle is predominant throughout the entire team
from end to end and quarterback to fullback. The feeling is
the same as they go against Baylor and the sophomores of
the squad are getting a little of that experience which can
often make the difference in this rough and tumble confer
ence.
Combine it all, and you have a winning Aggie team by
one touchdown. The score should sound something like 10-7
in favor of the Maroon and White.
Texas To Take Rice
A&M Consolidated High School
plays their first home football
game in a month, tonight. Their
opponent is Hempstead High
School, leaders of district 24-B.
Hempstead has a strong squad
this year, said Coach Othel V.
CJiafin of "Consolidated. According
to most of the players on the
local eleven and Chafin, Hemp
stead is the team to beat if the
Tigers intend to take the district
championship.
Rempstead has lost only one
Our choice for the SWC champ
ionship this year, the Longhorns
will keep going against a stub
born but weak Rice eleven.
In the past. Rice has always
seemed to put up their best fight
against Texas and SMTJ. They
nearly downed the Mustangs. It
will be about the same story as the
power of Texas pi’oves more than
the Owls can cope with.
The big worry of the Longhorns
earlier in the year was who to run
at Quarterback. T. Jones has just
about solved the problem.
He may not be the best in the
business, but with men like Tom
Stolhandske to catch the passes,
Harley Sewell to open the holes,
and Gib Dawson to help with the
running, how can he miss ?
Count on the Orange and White
to down the hard fighting Owls
to the tune of 20-7.
Kansas Over the Mustangs
The big boys from Kansas have
set an impressive x'ecord. The only
blemish was last week’s thrashing
Ihey took from poweiful Oklaho
ma, rated number thz - ee in the na-
lion.
Coach Russell’s Mustangs aren’t
going to risk anything in a non
conference tilt against such a pow
er-house. If the win comes easy,
they would like to have it, but
don’t count on their putting out
very much to .get that victory.
Kansas shouldn’t have much
trouble, but they too won’t be
showing all for the sake of noth
ing.
The visitors from up north will
teach the young sophomores of the
Ponies a trick or two as they roll
on at the rate of 27-14.
Old Miss to Trounce Porkers
Mississippi has a hard driving-
team that is hai-d to beat in any
league, and so far, Arkansas is at
the bottom of the SWC.
Lamar McHan of the Razorbacks
hasn’t shown all the things expect
ed of him, and the story is about
the same ‘all the way down the
Arkansas line-up.
They haven’t been able to roll,
although they beat the Bears re
cently arid put up a pretty good
fight against the Frogs.
Old Miss will have a tough
time the first half, but will walk
off with enough score to lower an
other SWC team by about 34-14.
Rifle Team Meets
Baylor Tomorrow
The Aggie Rifle Team will meet
the Baylor sharpshooters tomor
row morning in Waco at the tour
nament of the Southwestem ROTC
Association.
Last year, the Cadets took the
Bears and went on to the sectional
championship.
This year A&M is favored to
win again, since it has 10 return
ing lettermen who should prove the
difference.
“Our increasing the number on
the squad will get its test tomor
row,” said Sgt. Obestry, coach of
the rifle team.
Last week the Aggie riflemen
easily defeated the TCU squad by
190 points. This next match is a
series of meets which are played
in accordance with the football
games between the schools.

Baylor game reached about 1700

All of the Tigex-s will be in

time in two or three games. This
should give them a lot of good

plenty of confidence in his team
