Page 3 THE BATTALION Thursday, November 13, 1952
THE FARMER’S TRACTOR—Hoping to make the Aggie machine move against the
Owls Saturday on Kyle Field will be Raymond Haas, halfback, Ray Graves, quarterback,
Connie Magouirk, fullback, and Don Ellis, halfback. At the present time it is question
able if Graves will see action in the tilt. Magouirk has been running at defensive half
back, and Ellis saw some action last week against the Mustangs from the man-under
slot.

Rice Seeks Eighth Straight Win
Over A&M Saturday Afternoon '*
By JERRY ESTES
Battalion Sports Writer
Juggling of backfields, and dual
purpose backs have been the order
of the day this week as the Rice
Owls prepare for their invasion
of Kyle Field Saturday afternoon.
Rice had lost five straight games
before their win over Arkansas
last Saturday by a 35-33 margin.
A consistent winner in big time
college ball through the years, the
Owls aren’t at all happy with cur
rent developments, and head coach
Jess Neely has been trying every
trick he knows to get the Owls
back into the win column.
But it will be only an unhappy
not a discouraged group that the
Aggies face this weekend. With
the taste of victory still sweet,
Rice will be gunning for more at
the expense of the Cadets.
If versatility is an asset, Rice
will have a potent backfield to
show the Aggies Saturday after
noon. . They have three men who
can run at two or more positions,
and do a good job of it.
Big Bob Garbecht will be back
and ready for action. The 200
pounder is the strongest runner on
the squad, and a little more power
in their attack could be an impor
tant factor.
Youthful Dicky Moegle, a good
“spot” player on both offense and
defense in the backfield should
be recovered from his severe ankle
sprain and ready to go.
Bill Frazier can play three back-
field positions, left half, right
half, and full back. A groin in
jury has prevented him from being
in top physical condition since the
SMU game when he went 79 yards
for a touchdown.
He appeared for one play
against Arkansas Saturday and
gained 17 yards. His return, to
form aids Rice’s hopes greatly.
Morris Stone is equipped to go
at right half and full. He played
fullback for the first time against
Texas and was Rice’s best' ball
carrier. Stone should return to his
bid position at right half for the
game Saturday.
Regardless of Injuries
Tigers Ready For
Lexington Battle
Coach O. V. Chafin takes his
Consolidated High Tigers to Lex
ington Friday night to clash with
Lexington High School in their
next to last district game.
“We shouldn’t have any trouble,”
Chafin said yesterday, “since Lex
ington is not too strong. Their
district record is one win, one tie,
and three losses.”
He revealed that Rod Cook, Dav
id Bonnen, Doug Norcross, and
William Arnold are still on the
injured list and probably will not
play.
Back to battle will be Pinky
Cooner, John Manthei, and Jimmy
Bond, three' starters who have
been sidelined with injuries.
Class A Looks Rough
“Although the plan is still in a
tentative status,” Chafin reported,
“that Class A status next year
looks rough if it goes through.
However, I look 'for. some teams

J. R. Carroll
Dave -Johnson, the other versa
tile back is at home at left half
and fullback. He gained 85 yards
in 11 .carries against the Porkers,
one more than Stone who carried
the ball 14 times.
If Garbecht’s ankle is healed
sufficiently, the backfield should
shape up with Garbecht at full,
Johnson at left half and Stone at
right.
Chapman Bolsters Line
Dick Chapman of Waxahachie,
defensive tackle will be ready to
bolster the defensive line. Coach
Neely calls him as good a lineman
as Bill Athey, the Baylor Univer
sity stone wall.
Neely has held a spell over the
Cadets since coming to Rice, de
feating them eight times in 12
meetings. The Aggies haven’t won
over the Owls since 1944, and
they will be seeking their eight
straight win Saturday.
Last year, Rice came into the
game a 12 point underdog, and
pulled one of the biggest upsets
in the series in recent years by
winning 28-13, as Teddy Riggs en
joyed a big day.
