punt, but did not defeat the Ag
gies here again until 1941. A&M
then went victory hungry until
last year’s 22-21 win.
With the dedication of Memoi'ial
Stadium in 1924, Texas began a
win streak that has not been brok
en in Austin. This is the mark
A&M will be shooting for this
year.
For 14 men. Thanksgiving will
be the last time they will wear an
Aggie uniform. When these men
were on the Fish team, they de
feated the Shorthorns in Austin
for the first time in history. Such
men as Graves, Hooper, Little,
Marshall Rush and other Aggie
greats will be present Thursday
trying to break this losing jinx.
It is far fi-om impossible.

Fourteen Aggies Play
Last Game Against UT
Fourteen Aggie football players
will don the Maroon and White
uniform for the last time Thurs
day when the Cadets meet the Uni
versity of Texas Longhorns in Me
morial Stadium at Austin.
Only three backfield stars will
be lost by Coach Ray George this
year as compared to the 11 last
season. ^
Quarterback Ray Graves, the
SWC’s No. 2 offensive leader with
1149 yards in 227 plays, will be the
top Aggie back to end his college
gridiron career. The Stephenville
backfield star has the best pass
completion percentage in the SWC.
Roy Dollar, quarterback from
Mexia, has done the majority of
the Cadets punting this fall and
played some at the man-under slot.
He is the conference’s fourth lead
ing punter, having kicked 45 times,
averaging 37.3 yards per boot.
Fish Nearly Upset
Favored Yearlings
The Texas freshman halted the
Aggie “Fish” on the eight yard
line with a recovered fumble and
win Saturday 27-26.
Playing before 2800 fans, the
Aggie freshmen battled a highly
favored Shorthorn eleven to a
virtual standstill on Kyle Field.
The Shorthorns jumped into a 27-
7 lead and held it until the third
quarter.
Then the “Fish” began to roll,
and drew to within one point of
the “Little Texans,” only to lose
the ball on the UT eight yard line
with three minutes left in the
game.
With all-stater from Lubbock,
Charles Brewer passing and Joe
Youngblood running, the Short
horns scored three touchdowns in
the first half to make the game
look like a runaway. The “Fish”
scored one touchdown in the first
half when Herman Tidwell ran 79
yards to the one foot line, setting
up the score.
At the half, the Fish trailed 21
to 7.
The first discordant note was
struck at half time in this vicious
frosh game. The Shriners used up
more than their alloted time with

Scatback Raymond Haas of
Kingsville was one of the Aggies
leading halfbacks early in the year,
but was injured in the Michigan
State game and has been used
sparingly. He was the top ground
gainer his freshman year, but play
ed little the following two years
being preceded by all-SWC stars
Glenn Lippman, Billy Tidwell, and
Yale Lary. The Aggies will not
lose any of their fullbacks ®this
year.
Ten linemen were lost last year,
and the Cadet eleven will be mi
nus 11 aggressive stalwarts of the
forward wall after Thursday.
All-American Jack Little of Cor
pus Chidsti and Darrow Hooper of
Fox’t Wox’th ax’e two of the line
men who complete their eligibility
this year. Little, named all-Amer
ican by Grantland Rice in 1951,
has been one of the top tackles in
the Southwest during his stay at
A&M. Hoopex-, one of the na
tion’s finest track stai’s, has
brought the Farmers many points
with his convex-sion kicks and pass
catches.
A&M does not lose any centex-s
this year, and only one guard, Mar
shall Rush of Lampasas. Rush has
been one of the hardest hitting
linemen of the Aggie team and
the southwest.
The position losing the most
men will be the tackle post with

Steers Hold
Title Already
When the Aggies and the Long-
hoi’ns clash in Austin Thux’sday,
the cadets will battle the South
west Conference champs.
The Steers sailed undefeated
thx-ough five league games, while
the conference member's wei'e dut
ifully knocking off each other-.
Texas will be trying to improve
on an already fine season record
when they meet the Farmers. A
win would give them a season
record of eight victories against
two losses, and a league record of
six # and zero.
The Longhorn backfield fea
tures three players with an aver
age of better than four yards per
carry. Billy Quinn has carried 103
times for a 4.9 average, while Gib
Dawson has rambled 108 times
for a 4.8 average effort. Dick
Ochoa got the call 171 times for
an average of 4.2 yards. T. Jones,
Steer quarterback, has kept the
ball 65 times to post an average
mark of 2.7 yards.
Add to that list the" names of
Tom Stolhandske, pass snatching
end who has scored five times on
30 catches, and Harley Sewell,
demon defensive guard. There you
have at least six outstanding can
didates for all-conference honors,
and perhaps one or two of All-
America timber.
Texas opened the season with
two easy victories on the road, the
