LAST DAY

By MAURICE OLIAN
Consolidated Sports Writer
Seeking a comeback after last
week’s 12-7 loss to Navasota, A&M
Consolidated meets unscored on
Hempstead tonight at Tiger field.
Game time is 8 p.m.
Hempstead opened the season
with a 40-0 win over Orchard and
battled to a 0-0 tie last week with
Katy, a member of the Tigers’
district. Consolidated’s chances re
ceived a heavy blow in practice
this week when tackle George Lit
ton hurt his knee. He won’t play
tonight.
Linton r ij* Start
Edward Linton, 150-pound jun
ior, will start on offense in place
of Litton. Defensive changes find
Manuel Gax-cia shifting to line
backer, Jack McNeely to guard
and J. B. Carroll into the second
ary. Coach Jim Bevans has spent
much time this week on the Tiger
pass defense. Navasota completed
6 of 8 passes for 79 yards.
In their three games, the Tigers
have averaged 216 yards per game
rushing, to their opponents’ 223.3.
Their total offense average is 239.7
per game, their opponents’ is 244.
Engelbrecht Leads Tigers
Travis Engelbrecht leads the
team in rushing, with 237 yards
on 31 tries, a 7.7 yard average.
On offense, CHS probably will
start Jerry Oden and Dick Hick
man at ends, Edward Linton and
Henry Phillips at tackles, McNeely
and Garcia at guards, Norman
Floeck at center, Carroll at quar
terback, Engelbrecht and Tommy
Barker at halfbacks and Bobby
Joe Wade at fullback.

(Continued from Page 2)
Dudley, Trimble and Marshall
Whichard as he raced down the
sideline, cut in, got a block from
end Joe Bright, which erased the
last man, and went all the way
with two seconds left in the half.
The Fish took the second half
kickoff and went 64 yards in 5
plays. Longest gainer was a 30-
yard dash by Crowe around right
end after a pitch out from Wright.
On the next play, Wright dashed
to the left, then pitched out to
Dudley who scored untouched on a
23 yard run. Houston was com
pletely suckered by Wright’s fake.
In the fourth period, Houston
fullback Bill Wynn, punting from
his end zone, had his kick blocked
by guard Gene Baker, Meeks re
covering.
Eighteen players on the Fish
roster were from outside Texas.

By JERRY WIZIG
Battalion Sports Editor
This week Southwest conference schools start playing
for keeps, with surprising TCU and dark-horse Arkansas
opening conference play at Fort Worth Saturday night.
Last week’s prediction didn’t turn out completely right
(we got three of five), but where there is life, there is hope,
and here is how this week’s games should go.
A&M 19, Georgia 14.
Baylor 21, Miami 7.
Rice 26, Cornell 14.
Georgia Seven
The Bulldogs are rated seven
point favorites over the winless
Aggie, and since they’re playing
in Georgia, that looks about right.
Coach Wally Butts, as usual, has
come up with a fine passing at
tack, complemented by a running
game that appears pretty good
too.
A&M, on the other hand, is
fourth in the nation in pass de
fense, according to the latest NC
AA statistics, but the Aggies’ op
ponents haven’t exactly filled the
air with footballs. Oklahoma
Georgia Tech 14, SMU 7.
TCU 20, Arkansas 14.
Texas 28, Washington St. 7.
Point Favorite
A&M threw only three passes, and
Texas Tech tossed nine.
Coach Paul Bryant probably will
start the same lineup that opened
last week, which means the Ag
gies again will be outmanned in
experience and size. In practice,
Don Ellis picked apart the Cadet
pass defense, so it looks like a
busy afternoon for the Aggie sec
ondary.
However, Bryant undoubtedly
will have some kind of offensive
trickery cooked up, and it’s time
the Aggies got tired of being
pushed around.
Bears May Be Mad
Baylor barely got past an in- Jones continues to amaze Bear
spired Vanderbilt team last week,
and that squeaker might have been
just what the doctor ordered to
arouse the Bears.
George Sauer is likely to start
two sensational sophomores in the
backfield after their spectacular
play last week. They are Bobby
Jones at quarterback and Delbert
Shofner at halfback.
supporters and leads the SWC in
passing and total offense. He has
quarterbacked the team to 12 of
its 13 touchdowns. Shofner has
averaged over 8 yards per try on
the ground and has caught two
passes for 117 yards. Add to this
twosome L. G. DuPre, the confer
ence’s leading rusher, and the
Bears look awfully good.
Cornell Has DeGraaf
Rice, idle last week, meets Cor
nell, rated one of the best in the
East in pre-season forecasts. In
Bill DeGraaf, Cornell has one of
the best quarterbacks in the East,
and since the Owls have been
troubled by injuries in practice this
week, the stage may be ready for
an upset.
However, Dicky Moegel is hale
and hearty, and Morris Stone
should capably fill the fullback
spot, left vacant by knee injuries
to Mac Taylor and Jerry Hall.
SMU, which starts later and
finishes later than any other SWC
team this season, has a rough job
on its hands. Georgia Tech was
upended last week by Florida, and
figures to be fighting mad this
week.
SMU still has something of a
question mark at quarterback,
where Duane Nutt and John Roach
have been battling it out, and ap
pears thin in experienced linemen.
TCU may have reached its sea
son peak against Oklahoma last
week, but you just can’t tell about
sophomores, and the Frogs have
plenty of them. Arkansas will be
the first single wing team TCU
has played since last year, so the
Hogs seem to have a fair chance
of winning their first game in
Texas since 1948.
Texas was disappointing against
Notre Dame last Saturday, squan
dering several promising scoring
opportunities. Washington State
has 23 lettermen and an unfamiliar
single wing attack. Steer tackle,'
Langford Sneed is out of the
game with an injured shoulder, and
quarterback Charlie Brewer and
halfback Delano Womack both may
be slowed as a result of practice
injuries.
Even with these disadvantages,
the Longhorns should be able to
handle the Cougars without too
much trouble, since the game is at
Memorial stadium.
