CONWAY & CO.
Bryan
Melvin Wox - k will be the Aggie
starting pitcher when the SMU
Mustangs invade the Kyle Field
diamond this afternoon for a two
game series.
The Mustangs, confex - ence lead
ers in the baseball x-ace going into
today’s game, boast a league re
cord of seven wins and a single
loss.
With a confex-ence max-k of three
victox-ies and thx-ee defeats, the
Drawing Contest
Prizes Total $170
Between 80 and 100 students will
compete for $170 dollars worth of
prizes to be awarded in the four
divisions of the engineering dx-aw-
ing contest scheduled Satux-day.
The four divisions in which stu
dents may compete are: freehand
pictox-ial drawing, fx-eehand lettex--
ing, instx-umental work drawing
or a contest in solving a descrip
tive geometx*y px-oblem.
A set of dx-awing instx-uments or
the equivalent will be given to the
fix’st place winner of each division,
neex-ing drawing depax-tment.
Px-izes will be awax-ded to the se
cond and thii'd place winners.
The prizes will be given at the
Engineering Awax-ds Merit Day
Program, on May 2, Street said.
The judges will be H. N. Abx-am-
son of the aeronautical engineer
ing department, R. V. Andrews of
the chemical engineering depart
ment and R. M. Wingx-en of the
mechanical engineering depax’t-
ment.
Farmers are definite underdogs to
the Ponies in the sex-ies which
ends Satux-day. Joe Hax-dgx-ove is
due to start on the mound in
Satux-day’s game.
Defensively, the Aggies have
been on a par with the conference
opposition, committing 15 errors to
a like number by league foes. How
ever, the outfield defensive work
has been outstanding, with one
bobble by Tex Farmer to mar an
othex-wise pex-fect x-ecord for con
fex-ence games. Fax-mer patx-ols the
centerfield ax-ea, while Lester Byrd
is the leftfielder and Eric Miller
is the x-ightfielder.
Aggie Tennis Team
To Play Baylor
Aggie netmen will be seeking
their second conference win to-
mox-x-ow when they play Baylor in
Waco.
The Cadets conference x-ecord
stands at one won and two lost.
Another lose would completely
eliminate them from the title
x-ace.
SMU is the only Aggie victim in
conference play, losing 4-2. A&M
has lost to Texas 6-0 and Rice
4-2.
Eugene Letsos, the Farmer’s
number one player, will lead the
A&M attack. Following in ranking
ox-der ax-e Tommy West, Ronny
Wolff, and Jack Jacobson.
Letsos and West will form the
number one doubles team, and
Wolff and Jacobson will make the
number two team.

Bryan]
Coach Beau Bell has x-ecently game with the Bryan Amateurs,
been shuffling his infield lineup
in an effort to find more hitting
power. Jerry Lastelick and Jim
Parrish are both being tried at
third, and either may get the
call for this afternoon’s contest.
Don Heft and Don Ellis are bat
tling for the shox-tstop bex-th, and
either may be today’s stax-ter at
that spot.
Leissner Secure
Second base duties seem to have
been taken over by Chax-les Leis-
sner and is the likely choice
for the keystone position.
At first will probably be Cap
tain Bill Mxxnnex-lyn, although
Coach Bell may want to take an
other look at Sam Rowland at
the initial sack. Rowland played
the position in the Monday night
and although he failed to hit in
four tx-ips to the plate, he drove
in an Aggie run with a long fly.
He also handled 13 chances on first
without any trouble.
Another contest is taking place
for the catching chores, and either
Jimmy Williams or Jerry Robinett
may be calling for the pitches this
afternoon.
TCU Next
Monday afternoon the TCU
Horned Frogs c.ome to the Aggie
diamond for one game. TCU holds
a victory over Rice for its only
win in league play. A&M won two
games from the Frogs in Fort
Worth earlier in the season.
Jerry Nelson will
pitch against TCU.
