THE BATTALION-MSC
UAftT
Raiders to Try
'or Third Win
If two of Texas Tech’s Red Raid
ers listen to their older brothers,
they may learn how to defeat A&M
Tor the third time in Tech history
Saturday night.
Only twice in the 12 games play
ed between the two schools has a
Tech team won. In 1946, the Raid
ers edged the Aggies, 6-0, and in
1948, Tech 'won by 20-14. Both
games were played in San Antonio.
A defensive standout in the 1946
victory was Glenn Lewis, brother
of Tech’s leading rusher for this
season, halfback Don Lewis of
Quitaque. Glenn is now an assist
ant coach at Lamesa high school.
Charley Reynolds scored for Tech
on a 10-yard romp in the final
three minutes after running an in
terception 17 yards.
Hatch Grosser with the winning
touchdown to climax a 70-yard
march.
Otherwise, it has been strictly
A&M.
This will be only the third time
that the contest between the two
similarly-sized state schools has
been played on a college campus.
The 1927 game was played at Tech,
and the 1942 contest at College
Station. San Antonio’s Alamo sta
dium was the scene for the games
of 1943 through 1950. They played
at Amarillo in 1932 and in the Dal-'^
las Cotton Bowl in 1951.
Reserved and general admission
tickets are still available for the
game, expected to draw more than
20,000.

Boh Cavazos Aims
For All-America
Bobby Cavazos, Texas Tech’s great break-away runner
is a top contender for All-America honors this year after two
years as an honorable mention on the mythical team.
Twice Cavazos has made both the official All - Border
conference and the Associated Press all-conference teams.
He has been Tech’s leading rusher for two seasons.
• Speedy, powerful and elusive, Cavazos “hits the handoff
faster than anyone I’ve seen,” said Coach DeWitt Weaver.
He is a good kickoff returner and may kick extra points.
Here are some of the highlights of Cavazos’s career:
Sophomore year, ran for 119 yards and'scored three
touchdowns against TCU, the SWC champs; gained 117 yards
of the 131 Tech netted against Baylor.
Junior year: Scored two touchdowns and gained 104
yards, on four carries against North Carolina State; gained
185 yards against Texas Western; 64 yard scoring run
against Baylor; two touchdowns and 91 yards against Tulsa.
An animal husbandry major, Cavazos was reared on the
King Ranch, home of Assault and Middle Ground, winners of
the Kentucky Derby.

Undefeated Raider:
Better ’52 Record
After their first three games of
the season Texas Tech’s Red
Raiders are well, on the way to
ward bettering their 1952 record.
The ’52 Raiders compiled a 3-7-1
record. This year’s team has won
its first three games, setting up
whose work was confined to de
fensive play following an auto ac
cident last fall, backs up Johnson.
One platoon football means some
little scatbacks will not be used as
much as earlier planned. Mainly, it
has pushed some defensive stand-
fourth team.
ELLIS RETURNS PUNT—Don Ellis takes Georgia punt on Aggie 34 and heads up side
line for a 24 yard return to the Georgia 42. Bob Easley (35)-throws a block on Derwent
Lanley (No. 44) on the midfield stripe.
meeting of two undefeated teams outs of last fall down as far as the
Saturday.
Tech rolled over West Texas
State, 40-14, downed Texas West
ern, 27-6 and last week upset
Oklahoma A&M, 27-13. The Okla
homans had edged Arkansas, 7-6,
the week before the Hogs beat
TCU, 13-6.
Coach DeWitt Weaver is expect
ing a greatly inproved team, al
though a back-breaking schedule
may keep the amount of improve
ment from showing in the bare,
final-season standings.
With a ground-gainer like Bob
by Cavazos, Tech will run a lot
from the split-T but with more
passing than last season. Quarter
back Jerry Johnson, the Border
'conference’s number two man in
total offense, has picked up poise.
