First Six Games Show Tough League College Station Swim Team Takes Third In AAU Meet Competing in the Annual Gulf AAU Swimming Meet at Houston’s new Spring Branch Pool last Fri day and Saturday, Coach Art Ad amson’s College Station Swimming Team took many individual honors and placed third in total points in a field of ten clubs. Swimming in the women’s divis ion meet Friday evening, Kay Par nell was a double winner, winning first place in the 400 meter free style and 200 meter freestyle. She also swam on the third place 400 meter freestyle relay. On Saturday night in the Boy’s division, Albert Stevens also took double honors, winning first place in the 200 meter freestyle and 200 meter individual medley. Stevens also swam on the 4th place 266% meter freestyle relay. Gayle Klipple won first in the men’s 300 meter individual medley, fourth in the men’s 100 meter breaststroke, and swam on the fourth place men’s 300 meter med ley relay. Swimming unattached with the local team, Larry Meyer won three Legion Splits Two With St. Thomas By BARNEY WELCH Mural’s Writer With six games completed dur ing the first week of the second six weeks of Intramural Softball, the results indicate a torrid, close, dog-eat-dog race. Every team has won at least one game and all but Project House has lost at least once. Law and Puryear played the first game of the tournament. Bill Becher led his Puryear team to a 5-1 win over Law giving up only one hit while striking out 15 Law men.

Not a let ter man returns and two soph omores, Bob White of Fort Worth and Hugh Pitts of Woodville, may be “it.” Dale Brakebille, squad- man, may help out. Otherwise, the Frogs look pretty stout despite the loss, by one means or another, of some 13 boys from the spring training roster. The varsity squad this year will number only 52 boys against 68 or so last season. The backfield looks especially good. Malvin Fowler, the power ful five-year man, looms as the man-under on the new T formation. However, he must miss the opening game with Kansas under the Con ference ruling that gave him an ex tra year of eligibility. Fowler got hurt in the opening game of 1951 and missed the remainder of the season. So the conference decided he could have another year of eli gibility minus the opening game. Ray McKown, sensation of the 1951 champions, is F’owler’s “un derstudy” and will open the Kan sas game. Both of them are big and versatile- Ronald Clinkscale, one of the fastest men in the country, will be at left halfback. He will be a jun ior and should go great. He’s backed by a fine sophomore in Van Williams, son of Blackie Wil liams, captain of the TCU team of 1927. Ronald Fraley, the defensive star, looms as the right halfback despite his lean 165 pounds and the one-platoon system. Two seniors, Sammy Morrow and Danny Hall mark, make fullback strong. Williams, the senior guard, is the standout of the line. The 200- pounder does everything well and has made the swap to offense in a breeze. Malcolm Wallace and Claude Roach are lettermen at right guard. There are four lettered tackles— seniors Marshall Harris, Hal Lam bert and R. C. Harris and junior Bill Sikes. And look for Ray Hill, a 200-pound Marine veteran who is coming up at right tackle. But anyway you' cut it, the Frogs are shy on the flanks and up the middle. Albert Smith, who has charge of the equipment at TCU, has been ordered not to issue a.un iform to one Abe Martin. But he may slip by. Abe won’t worry so much if he’s out there getting batted around instead of sitting on the bench looking for an end to show up. pitcher giving up only one hit while striking out 5 men of Puryear. The first night', game found the Project House eking out a 7-5 win over Mitchell Hall. Project House seems to be the team to beat as they have two wins with no losses. Sonny Pruitt led the Project House attack giving up only 2 hits' to Mitchell, both being home runs, one by C. D. Gwen, Mitchell first base- man, and one by Paul Henojasn, center fielder for Mitchell. Leon Shepley was the losing Pitcher for Mitchell in the game. Law. .b( > unc.ed_.back from, their de feat by Puryear to trim Colleg'e View, a new entry into the Softball Tournament, by a score of 9-5. Kirby Helbig proved to be too much for College View as he gave up bn- ly’ 4 hits while Gordon Moore, a great golfer, gave up 8 hits to Law Hall. College View will be one of the threats after they become a little better organized by getting to play together more. Mitchell dropped Puryear for their first loss on July 29 by a score of 10-8. Marian pitched a good game for Mitchell as he gave up 9 hits and struck out 7 Puryear men. Claude Harris was the losing pitcher giving up only 5 hits and being credited with 9 strike outs. The Project House won their sec ond game from College View by the score of 5-3. Sonny Pruitt was the winning pitcher again as he struck out 7 College View men and gave up 4 hits. Buddy Moore, the golfing great, was credited with his second loss of the season as he gave up 8 hits with one strike out. In the final game of the first week of play Mitchell downed Law 8-0 in 4 innings.- This was Mitch ells second win of the week. Leon Shepley is given credit for the win as he pitched a no-hit-no-run strike out. Paul Garza did a good job of pitching until the bottom of the 3rd inning when Mitchell jumped on him for 5 hits and 3 runs. In the only volleyball game Mit chell received a win over Law by forfeit. Entries for open golf and tennis can still be made before Wednes day, August 5. Each athletic offi cer in the area has an entry form. Anyone interested in competing can sign up with their athletic officer or at Students Activities or the golf shop. The College Station American Legion baseball team almost pulled a tremendous upset Sunday after noon on the Kyle Field diamond when they defeated hitherto un beaten St. Thomas of Houston in the second game of the Area 3 playoff by a 11-8 score. But the Toms, unaccustomed to defeat, returned to form in the nightcap on the splendid two-hit pitching of Lupe Fraga and a 12- hit attack off three College Sta tion chunkers to score a 14-0 win. Thus Saint Thomas completed the field for the four-day state meet, which gets underway at Pub lic School diamond in Houston, Thursday and runs through Sun day. College Station collected 12 hits and seven walks off the first game quartet. The Tom attack was guilty of deserting nine runners and having six players caught off or going to base. Saint Thomas grabbed a 4-0 lead in the first inning, put togeth er on Tim Staples’ game-opening 340-foot home run, two singles and five errors. The advantage was quickly erased in the second, however, and five College Station runners cross ed the plate. A bases-loaded three bagger by David Bonnen featured the rally, which chased starter Mike. Mulvihill and brought on re liefer Ken Stevens. Twice the Eagles fought back to tie the score, once at 5-5 and again at 8-8. But the Toms collapsed for good beneath a three-run College Station assault on loser Armando ‘YER OUT!’ — The deep bass voice of veteran Umpire Barney Smith (above) has been booming out of Big State League parks for seven years. That makes Smith dean of the umpiring staff. England Posts Top Bowling Clem England posted both high single game score of 201 and high series score of 569 of the All Star Bowling League Wednesday night. England’s team. No. 4, won all three of their games to tie for sec ond place in the league. Majors Beat Tyler 6-2 Righthander Bill Hockenberry scattered six hits to give the Bry an Majors a 6-2 Big State League win over the Tyler East Texans Monday night. Major catcher Ronald Spradlin homered in the bottom of the sixth with two mates on board for his first four-bagger of the year to give Hockenberry a comfortable lead to work with. Hockenberry also led Major hitters with two singles in two times at bat. Losing pitcher for Tyler was Boles, who gave up eight hits. The win gave Bryan a split in the two game series with Tyler, since the East Texans won the Sunday afternoon tilt by a 4-2 margin. Winning pitcher for Ty ler was Gale Pringle, who allowed but four hits while his mates were picking up 13 safe blows off two Bryan pitchers. Joe Pipak was charged with the loss. Austin comes to Travis Park to night at 8:30 for the first of a three-game series. The delayed starting time was set in order to allow the District 2 Little League baseball game to end, preventing the little league lights from inter fering with batters. Tello, fourth Eagle chunker in the eighth. Lefty Pete Hickman, who res cued Pinky Cooner in the seventh, and allowed only the eighth Tom run, was the winner. The finale belonged to Fraga, the little righthander coming back from his 6-0, one-hit win in Wed nesday’s opener in fine style. He fanned six and permitted just One runner to reach second. Smarting from the sting of the first game loss, the Eagles never let up as they jumped off to a six- run bulge in the first three innings off Cooner—making his third start of the series—and finished with eight more runs off two successors* In all, the afternoon saw over five hours of hectic baseball ac- tivity y \yith 33 runs, 39 hits and 19 errors being produced on hazy Kyle Field.
