V. Page '4 THE BATTALION Thursday, November 20, 1952 Star Laden Shorthorns Favored In Shrine Tilt By JERRY ESTES Battalion Sports Staff The Texas Shorthorns, sprinkled with high school stars, Mali invade Kyle Field Saturday for the sixth annual Shrine game. Coach “Ox” Emerson’s Year lings will be in almost top shape for the game, and will be rough to beat. Starting with two All- State backs in the backfield, and a host of big fast linemen, the “Little Steers” are rough from end to end. Regular halfback Tooty Carroll, the 155 pound scat-back from Peai'sall will be back and ready to go. He injux’ed his shoulder in the Shorthox-n-SMU Colt tilt two weeks ago. The only player definitely on the sideline fox’ the Yearlings will be defexxsive guard Bill McLean, who broke a finger ixx the Wog tilt. Charles Bi'ewer, the all-state quartex’back fi'om Lubbock, will be handling the ixxan under chores for the Texas fx’eshmen. As a senior in high school, Brewer led Lub bock to the state championship. He is a fast, hard x-unner, and has a deadly aim with his passing. Youngblood from Abilene At left half, another all-stater, Joe Youngblood from Abilene will be running. Youngblood leads the team in rushing and is a haxd man to stop. He is expected to gain a starting berth on the var sity elevexx next year. Carrying no small shax*e of the load will be Delano Womack of Austin and Bill Long of Mineola. Both are brilliant runnex's, and will be looking for a place on the var sity xxext year. In the line will be 'such men as Herbex’t Gx*ay the double duty right tackle fx-om Baytown. Gi’ay is a sixty minute man, playing both offense and defense. Bob Tucker of Houston and Don Jones of Lub bock will be at the ends catching Brewer’s passes. Both excell in pass receiving and hard hocking. The cexxter of the line is plug ged by Johnny Tatum fx-om Lub bock. He is the regular center on offense, aixd backs the line on de fense. Tatum is considex’ed one of the finest freshman centers in the eonfex-ence, and great things are expected from him next yedx\ A slow staxd this year handed the Shox’thorns losses to the Bay lor Cubs and Rice Owls. But they have now developed into what is probably the best freshman team in the Southwest. Six Seniors Suit Up For Last CHS Tilt Six seniors fx’om Coixsolidated will suit up for their last Tiger game tomorrow ixight against Magnolia High School. Dan Williams, John Manthei, David Carroll, Doix Bux'chard, Buck Byer and Rod Cook ax-e the players who will finish theix' football ca reers at Consolidated this week. Rod Cook is injux’ed and prob ably won’t play. Pinky Cooner has a bad ankle aixd might not play. David Bonnen, star fullback, still limps a little so Coach Chafin doesn’t know if he will be in the line-up. In the middle of the season, H. H. Swann, coach of the Magnolia Bulldogs, changed from a “TCU Spx-ead” to a straight “T” and hasn’t lost a game since. Chafin didn’t seem too worried about the outcome of the game, however. During halftime, the Tiger Baxxd will march for the first time this year. One of their numbex’s will be played in honor of Col. Richard Dunn, organizer of the Aggie Band and author of the musical scoi’e for the “Spix-it of Aggieland.” Col. Duixn was also band dix-ector of Consolidated High School last year. OU Football Team To Quit Conference By the Associated Press The University of Oklahoma football team voted unanimously yesterday to attend a bowl game if they are offered a bid. The Big Sevexx conference has tuled against the playing of bowl games by its members. Eddie Crowder, Sooner co-cap tain, was the spokesman for the team. He said: “The team wants to go naturally but we don’t think the team should make such an im portant decision affecting the school and the conference. The Jules should be changed. We’d like lo go but the decision is not in sur hands.” The university’s Board of Re gents last Thursday voted to leave the decision of playing in a bowl up to Coach Bud Wilkinson and the squad. There was only one dissent ing vote. Wilkinson explained the entix-e picture to the full football squad. I He aixd other Sooner coaches then left the x’oom. Crowder and Co- Captaiix Tom Catlin took a vote and later announced it was unani mous in favor of a bowl trip. After* learning of the squad’s decision, Wilkinson said. “We have the finest group of boys I’ve ever been acquainted with and this action typifies their unselfish attitude and the sense of team play and loyalty. “I would have liked to have been able to go to the Orange Bowl.” Wilkinson’s reference to the Or ange Bowl was the first official indication that Oklahoma possibly had beexx tendered a bid to play in the Miami game New Yeax-’s Day. However, it was known that Wilkinson had received. “feelers” from the Orange Bowl committee by telephone. Earlier, univex-sity officials said the school might withdraw- fxxxm the Big Seven Confex'ence and ac cept a bowl bid. When the gang gets together...

The defeat of SMU was the Colts fix'st loss in three year's. They then walloped the Wogs 48-0 in their last game. Seldom in the histoi'y of the Southwest Confex’ence has so many high school star's and All-State men been gathered on one team. As a x-esult, the varsity squad will have sevex’al Sophomores in start- iixg positions next year'. The Shorthoxms will be shoot ing fox’ a tie fox* the Southwest Confex’ence championship. A Short horn victox-y plus a Colt defeat at the hands of the TCU Wogs will thx’ow the championship into a two way tie.

Px’actice, 10 days old, has been px’ogi’essing rapidly as Coach John Floyd hunts for meix to replace All-SWC Walter “Buddy” Davis and All-SWC Jewell McDowell. Along with these two, Coach Floyd lost lettex’men Raymond Walker-, Bobby Farmer and Eddie Houser by graduation. Floyd’s I'etuming lettermen are Lei’oy Miksch of Waelder, Don Binford of Wellington, Kan., Don Heft of Cox-pus Chi’isti, and James Addison of Lipan. The Aggie team will be under the tutorship of Head Coach John. Floyd, and Assistant Coach Ray mond Walker-. spij SllllP^ w. ■m KM&S f P ■ -5% m « ^ j% 4 IIP Wk “It’ll be a successful season if we win the Texas game—so we’ll win.” With these woi’ds, Leo Max’- quette, Aggie offensive center’, calmly dismissed the Memorial Stadium jinx of 30 years standing and predicted an A&M victory. Marquette, who tips the scales at 215 pounds and stands 6-1 in his football socks, played high school football for Holy Cx’oss High in New Ox-leans, La., with Pete Mayeaux, Aggie junior back. He believes the Aggies have a far better defensive club than peo ple think, and that Jack Little, Max-shall Rush, Max-vin Tate, and the rest of the defensive team will hold Dick Ochoa and Gib Dawsoxx of Texas in check. “The first score will have a lax-ge bearing on the outcome of the game,” Marquette said. “We’ve been playing catch-up football in our last three games.” He has been suDstituted for twice during the season, the last minute of the SMU game, and the last three minutes of the Ai’kansas tilt. This gives him six full games of offensive play. “Our scoring thx-ee times over Bill Athey of Baylor gave me the biggest thrill for a game this sea son,” Max-quette said. “I helped take him out twice and he took himself out oix the other TD play.” He named Kush, 185 pound Michigan State guard, as thef toughest player he has faced this year’. “Kush is trxxty All America,’’^ Marquette said. “He’s light, he’s* (See MARQUETTE, Page 5) ; : Ijllfjgt silllSllilsi Leo Marquette M *vligp, 1: 11 « » ’iM m.*1 » . dill IjllfliiaP ^ • • Stollenwerck Wins Back of Week Poll Sam Stollenwerck, a little SMU halfback who weighs only 160, in cluding the splinters he has picked up sitting on the bench all sea son, came off the sidelines to lead the Mustangs from a 17-0 deficit to a 27-17 victory over Arkansas Saturday. As a x’esult, Stollenwerck was named today as Associated Press back of the week. Before Saturday, the pint-sized SMU junior had taken part in only four rushing plays and ten passes this season. But when Arkansas, cashing in on fumbled punts, mov ed into a T7-0 lead Coach Rusty Russell called Stollenwerck from his favox’ite seat on the bench to replace Jerry Norman at tailback.
