The Refugio Vets, coached by Aggie Diamond Mentor Beau Bell, are currently engaged in a best of seven series with the Jim Hill Pro ducers of Fort Worth. Winner will journey to Wichita, Kans., next week for a crack at the National Baseball Congress meet. Stars of the Vets include Aggie Sophomore Pitchers Joe Hardgrove and Jerry Nelson, Catcher Jimmy Williams, Outfielder Dave Verble and Shortstop Guy Wallace. Wal lace, a member of the 1951 South west conference champs at A&M, coached the Fish last spring. He was the leading hitter in the south ern Texas tournament which the Refugio team won recently. The Vets hold a 3-2 edge over Ft. Worth in the 7-game series which will be resumed in Sinton last week, then took one of three in Ft. Worth this week. Hardgrove went the route for the Vets in Tuesday night’s 13-2 victory over Ft. Worth. The win sent the Vets out front, three games to two. Nelson was an all-Southwest conference hurler as an Aggie sophomore star last spi'ing. College Station Net Stars Enter CLE RENT OR TRADE. Ratos l word per insertion with a im.

Mary Baker Eddy, in ex planation of this usage, wrote in “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures” (p. 482): “Human thought has adulterated the mean ing of the word soul through the hypothesis that soul is both an evil and a good intelligence, resi dent in matter. The proper use of the word soul can always be gained by substituting the word God, where the deific meaning is required. In other cases, use the word sense, and you will have the scientific signification.” First Division Bid Booted by Bryan. Majors The Bryan Majors booted a beau tiful chance to move into the first division in the Big State League when they dropped both ends of a doubleheader to the Longview Pi rates yesterday by 6-2 and 3-1 scores. With a record of 58 wins and 59 losses, the Majors are now firm ly entrenched in sixth place, nine games off the pace. Leading the league is Wichita Falls, with Tyler in second place, one half game be hind. Texarkana is third, two games away from the top, and Longview holds down fourth spot, six and one half games out, then comes Temple in fifth, one half game ahead of the Majors. Austin is seventh with a 13 game deficit and Paris is in the cellar, 29 games behind. The Majors wind up a three game series tonigdit with Longview then move back to Travis Park Fri day night for two games with Tem ple, followed by a three-game ser ies with Longview. Friday night’s game will be highlighted by ap preciation ceremonies honoring Dick Burnett, owner of the Majors and the Dallas Eagles, who moved the club to Bryan. FAMILY FRIEND — Freckled David Bailey, 10, of Arlington, holds a terrapin which his fath er, James Bailey, when only 17 (in 1938) had found and released after carving his initials on its shell. He had found and marked the terrapin again in 1939 and in 1941. Young David, spending the summer with his grandpar ents on their farm east of Deni son, found the terrapin while helping Grandpa Don bring in the cows. . . ]l ! e Station’s Own -Wolf tiking Service • • ■ lege Station • • • :ate Bank ’lease)-} i)MORTH GATE Central Texas Hardware Co.

Bryan MELLO CREAM “A Nutritious Food” Slate Interscholastic League Issues Booklet By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The Texas Interscholastic League issued a record book of sports the other day. It brought tn avalanche of memories. The league athletic program is big now—it takes in six sports. Back when it started there was on ly one—track and field. That was 42 years ago. Tennis was inaugurated in 1914, football in 1920, basketball in 1921, baseball in 1948 and golf in 1949. Two names stand out in the memories of Texas schoolboy ath letic feats—Boody Johnson and Leo Baldwin. Johnson was the greatest school boy football player ever to trod a gridiron. He was the finest drop- kicker in Texas history, he was a great runner and g*eat blocker, great everything. His most memorial feat was win ning the 1922 state football cham pionship for Waco—he kicked two field goals in the last three minutes to beat Abilene 13-10. Best All-Around Baldwin was the greatest all- around athlete of all. But his mightiest performance was in track —he won the state championship foi’ Wichita Falls by himself with 23 points. He won four first plac es and one second. Under present scoring he would have made 48 points. In those days first counted five and second three. Now first counts 10 and second eight. Baldwin was a great football player, baseball player and basket ball player. He was good enough at baseball that a big league club offered him $2,000 to sign a con tract. That was big money then but Baldwin declined. But, while Baldwin’s feat of 23 —or 48 points in winning the state championship single-handed was the finest performance any track man ever turned in, he was not the biggest winner in a state track meet. Totaled 31 Points In 1912, when only 110 boys competed, a youngster named Max- son of Beaumont won five firsts and two seconds for 31 points. It would have been 66 points today. In Baldwin’s year—1924 — there were 807 contestants, the largest number ever to compete in the state meet. Basketball, back in the twenties, was greatly different from today. For instance, in 1925, Beaumont won the State championship over San Antonio by a 14-12 score. Most any forward or center would make more than 14 points by himself in basketball today. Athens set a record for winning state championships in basketball with five titles—in 1927-29-31-33- 34. They had different eligibility rules back in the twenties. Fox- instance, the ti-ack summaries show that in 1920 Doss Richerson of Cleburne set a state record in the discus throw with 125 feet 5 inches then the next year Doss Richerson of Sherman broke the record with 139 feet 3 inches. The tennis results show some names familiar to the nation’s fans —Berkeley Bell and Bruce Barnes. Bell, who became one of the great est netters of all time, was second however, in the Texas Interschol astic League meet in 1924. Barnes was on the championship doubles team of 1926. 1920 Missing The 1920 football playoff is miss ing—the league couldn’t trace it down and doesn’t even carry the final result. That was the first year of school boy football and there were no dis tricts or regions—the teams with outstanding records were paired for a state playoff. For some reason, no reports were made on these games. But that was the year Cleburne and Houston Heights played for the title in the rain at Austin. It was 0-0 and they were co-champions. Illustrating again the difference in eligibility rules, we played on the 1921 Hillsboro High School team with the center of the 1920 Houston Heights team—Earl Short. This couldn’t happen today. The 1920 Cleburne team pro duced some great stories. One of them showed a keen sense of sportsmanship. Cleburne was playing Abilene when the I’eferee ruled Abilene had fumbled and the ball was given to Cleburne. But the Cleburne boys didn’t think the ruling was correct. * So, on the next play, Blue Smith and Curtic Poindexter carried the ball to the very spot where the fumble had been ruled and plgced it down. They strode away and let Abilene recover the ball. Stars down the years of hectic Texas schoolboy football include W. C. Lynch, Father Lumpkin, Chris Cortemeglia, Pest Welch, Seaman Squres, Bobby Wilson, We- witt Coulter, Charles Leyendecker, Madison Pruitt, Dan Salkeld, Char ley Haas, Burl Bufkin, George Wat ers, Dick Todd, Sam Baugh, Davey O’Brien, Bobby Layne, Doak Walk er, John Kimbrough. Recognize any of these fellows ? Lumpkin, Welch, Wilson, Coulter Leyendecker, Baugh, O’B r i e n, Layne, Walker and Kimbrough were all-American in college. Those are just a few that push through the memories of 33 years of writing about Texas schoolboy athletics. Soviets Vacate (Continued from Page 1) it only a few old piston-engined aircraft to keep. “Educated guesses” on the rea sons behind the Soviet evacuation were ruled out by Allied officers until more information might be gathered. Some of the transferred Soviet units possibly went to other bases inside East Germany. Some may have gone back to Russia on rota tion, with replacements due here in the near future. But the dismantling of Werneu- chen indicated the Russians are re ducing the tota(l of their East Ger man bases, regardless of whether overall plane strength is affected. The jet-powered Soviet Air Force backing up a 300,000-man army on the Elbe line has been a continual nightmare to Allied strategists re sponsible for Europe’s defense. The Soviet planes are capable of delivering A-bomb strikes on Lon don or Paris if the Kremlin has nuclear explosives it claims.
