THE BATTALION
Thursday, January 7,1954 —
Varsity, Fish Prepare
For Rice Doubleheader
The Aggie basketball team today
continues preparations for Satur
day night’s game with the Rice
Owls in Houston.
In a curtain-raiser, the Fish will
go after their fifth straight vic
tory without a loss, taking on the
Owlets.
The vai’sity will be after its sec
ond win of the season and its first
conference victory.
Coach John Floyd probably will
start the same team which opened
against Baylor Tuesday night, but
Guard Don Moon may break into
the starting lineup after his fine
performance against the Bears.
The Cadets started Roy Martin
at center, John Fortenberry and
James Addison at forwards, and
Rod Pirtle and Joe Hardgrove at
guards.
Rice’s probable starting team
will have Gene Schwinger, 6 feet,
6, at center; Don Lance, 6 feet, 3,
and Joe Durrenberger, 6 feet, 6, at
forwards; and Monte Robicheaux,
5 feet, 9, and Bobby Brasher, 5
feet, 11, at guards.
The Aggies sank ^K): per cent of
their shots from the field Tuesday
night but were out-rebounded, 41-
30. Also, Roy Martin had an off
night, failing to score and getting
only one rebound, and James Addi
son had four personal fouls at 6:40
in the second guarter.
The Owls were upset by SMU,
79-66, Tuesday night, their first de
feat of the season after 10 straight
wins. However, several Rice play
ers were suffering from colds.
Schwinger, highest scoring play
er in the Southwest conference,
poured in 35 points, giving him
281 for the season. He has aver
aged 25.5 points per game and
scored 38 against SMU in the
semifinals of the SWC tournament
held during the Christmas Holi
days.

Jake Magee Scores Twice
As Squadron 7 Wins 20-0
CHS Lands Two
On Class A Squad
Center Pinky Cooner and Fullback David Bonnen of A&M
Consolidated higii school have been named on the Class A
all-state* football team of the Texas Sports Writers’ associa
tion.
Cooner was selected on the second team, and Bonnen re
ceived honorable mention.
Consolidated won the district 25-A title and lost to Deer
Park in the bi-district round.
Cooner, a senior and winner of four football letters, was
called “our line coach on the field” by Coach Jim Bevans be
cause of his ability to solve the opposition’s defense. Con
sidered one of the finest blockers to ever play at Consolidated,
he won the Best Blocker award in 1:952 and was selected on
the ’51 and ’53 all-district team.
Cooner also is a starter on the CHS basketball team. His
pitching - and hitting played a big part last summer as the
College Station American Legion junior baseball team won
district, bi-district and division titles.
1ho son of M r. and—Vlt. - s. ■■L-4J-. ■Coomui.;,.,..,,,., „„
Bonnen was one of the Tiger co-captains last season and
placed 16th in the voting for the Class A team. He probably
was one of the hardest-running backs in Class A football, al
though he weighed only 160 pounds.
A four letter winner in football, Bonnen was called “De
pendable David” by Bevans because of his ability to hold the
team together. He made the ’52 and ’53 all-district teams and
also has lettered in basketball, baseball and track. He has
earned 12 letters.
Bonnen is the son of Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Bonnen.
