The general opinion around Tex
as concerning the Aggie-Longhorn
game in Austin is definitely lean
ing toward the Texas squad.
But the boys who will have the
most to say about this win or
loss for the Cadets are the Aggie
team members themselves, and
they don’t agree with the public
opinion.
“I believe we have a good chance
to win our first ball game in Aus
tin in 30 years,” said Joe Boring,
defensive halfback for the Maroon

Fencing Team Win
Three-Way Match
Aggie fencers swept a dijuble
victory from Tarleton Saturday
in the MSC ballroom.
The Varsity won 34-14 while
the non-varsity edged by 18-14.
The group from Rice failed to
appear and forfeited.
High point individuals in the
three divisions were Bob Jones,
foil, Wally Schlauther, epee, and
Arthur Garner, sabre.
“Our, foil and sabre squads
showed very well,” said Bob Jones,
“but the epee group needs some
smoothing out. The non-varsity did
quite well considering their inex
perience.”

‘WILL TEXAS SCORE?’—All America Tackle Jack Little (left) jokes with All-SWC
candidate Marshall Rush at the question “Do you think Texas will score against the
Aggies?”. These men are two top defensive line-men in the conference, and have
turned in outstanding performances. Rush was out of play at the first of the year with
an injury, but has set a ktrong enough record since then to make him the choice of
many sports writers in Texas for all-conference honors. Both men are seniors, and will
be trying to beat the 30-year standing jinx of Memorial Stadium next week in Austin.
The A&M Gymnastics Club is
preparing to stage an exhibition
for the Crockett, Texas Lions Club
Vai’iety Show, Nov. 25.
Fifteen regular members of the
team will make the trip and per
form on the trampoline, high bar,
side horse, and mats. Conrad Webb
and Coach Bud Matthews will act
as clowns.

area.
The deer was a four-pointer and
tipped the scales at 76 pounds. And
something which might make the
old timers pull in their brags for
awhile, Britton says “It is the
first deer I have ever killed.”
He says he made the shot at 100
yards, Avhich is nice shooting for
anyone, and especially for a man
out for his first buck.

Joe Boring-
and White, in a typical statement
heard around the A&M dressing
room these past few days.
Here is one man the Longhorns
will have to reckon with when it
comes to their powerful passing
attack. Boring leads the confer
ence in pass interceptions.
Pulls Down Fom
in the Arkansas game, the 19
year old sophomore intercepted
four Razorback passes to stifle
several different scoring threats.
He has upset many a passer’s
dream this year when it comes to
the opposition’s completing passes.
His average in this department
after stealing the ball from the
receiver’s; hands is 8.4 yards pel
try. Boring has intercepted a total
of eight passes during the season
and carried them back for 67
yards.
The 165-pounder Sunset High
School (Dallas) star also is setting
the pace in the conference on punt
returns. H^ has taken 10 kicks
back throuffh the opposing line
for 123 yards and a 12.3 average.
Also a Punter
Boring is also a punter if the
occasion arises, although this year
he has worked behind the foot of
Roy Dollar who handles the regu
lar booting chores.
His versatility doesji’t end here,
however, since he lettered last
year on the freshman baseball
team.
Boring says that Jerry Norton,
SMU’s one-man offensive show, is
the toughest ball carrier he has
played against this year. He added,
“Norton keeps you wondering
whether to drop back for a pass
or move up for an end run.
“When he does run, he is hard
to catch, and if you catch him he’s
hard to tackle,” he said.
Boring’s idea on next year’s
prospects was a bright one. He
said “We should really have a
good ball club next year. I think
we will do all right. But first, we
have to go down to Austin and
win that one in Memorial Stadi
um.”

at our advanced fighter bases guarding the northern

Here hundreds of men like this one keep a constant vigil, making
certain that our planes are ready to repel any and all enemy in

But you and eighty-three million intelligent, thrifty Americans

strength that backs up these men on the fighting fronts. Keeping
America strong for peace—in a hostile world where peace is only
for the strong!
And at the same time you make the safest investment in the
world today. For Defense Bonds are as safe as America!
The U. S. Defense Bonds you buy
give you personal financial independence
Don’t forget that bonds are now a better buy than ever. Be
cause now ei r ery Series E Bond you own can automatically go
on earning interest eVery year for 20 years from date of pur

bought for $18.75 can return you not just $35 —but as much
as $33.33! A $37.50 bond pays $66.66. And so on. For y r our
