NOW SHOWING
Farmer southpaw Joe Hard-
grove is slated to get the call to
take the mound against the de
fending SWC champions.
The Longhorns, sporting a sea
son record of four wins and no
losses in two non-conference games
with Baylor and two with Minne
sota, have been' consistently hit
ting the long ball. They pounded
out six homers, six doubles and 13
singles in the second game with
the Baylor Bears.
With a pre-conference record of
two wins and one loss, the Aggies
will be looking for a way to cool
off Texas batters who have punch
ed out 50 hits in four games. The
Cadets counter this total with 22
bases hits in three games.
Glove Work Good
Aggie fielding has been good
thus far and does not seem to pose
a major problem, but they must
improve at the plate if they have
their sights set on the conference
title.
Their hurling is very good, with
Melvin Work, Jerry Nelson, Lou

Aggie chances in the sprints and
distance relays will appear in to

Walt Davis will not be back and
the Aggies will be weak in the
high jump. Texas Relays high
jump champ from last year, Char
les Holding, of East Texas State
will be favored in that event. Mar
vin Swink, Cadets high jumper has
jump six feet this year, but still
might place, as the caliber of high
jumpers, with the exceptions of
Holding has decreased.
Oklahoma’s Price will be favored
in the broadjump over Ragsdale.
Mayeaux Favored
Pete Mayeaux will lead the
Cadet javelin throwers. Mayeaux
has won the javelin event in all
three meets which he has thrown
in this year. Wes Ritchey of TCU,
who placed third in the javelin at
the Relays last year is the only
one returning this year of the
four men who won. Mayeaux has
beaten Ritchey this year at the
Border Olympics in Laredo and
will be favored.
Hooper is favored in the shot
and Bobby Gross, sophmore shot
putter has been second to Hooper
every meet this season. Last year
Aggie weight man Dan Pratt was
second to Hooper in the relays. All
three Cadets are favored to place
with University of Houston’s Nick
Spillios, expected to furnish the
strongest opposition for second or
third place.
Marks May Upset
Gerald Peery of Oklahoma A&M
won the pole vault event at last
years Texas Relays with a vault
of 13 feet six inches. Malcolm
Marks of the Aggies hit this mark
last Aveekend in a tri-meet with
LSU and Rice in Baton Rouge.
Peery as defending champ Avill
probably be favored, but Marks
