Friday, October 8, 1954 THE BATTALION Page 3 s PORT H O R T S By JERRY WIZIG Battalion Sports Editor Southwest conference teams roam far and wide this week for intersectional games as the squads put on final touches before settling down to conference play. The biggest attraction of the weekend involving SWC teams takes place inside the state, however. University of Texas plays Oklahoma at Dallas. Rice goes to Madison to meet powerful Wisconsin, SMU takes on Missouri at Columbia and TCU plays Southern California at Los Angeles Friday night. This week’s predictions: A&M 13, Houston 7. SMU 20, Missouri 7. Texas 27, Oklahoma 21. TCU 13, Southern Cal. 21. Rice 14, Wisconsin 10. Baylor 21, Arkansas 20. A&M — University of Houston Records Show Fish Margin Over Wogs This week’s game could be the most important of the season for the Aggies. If they beat the Cou gars and get the poise and drive they need, the Cadets can have a mighty big hand in deciding where the conference title is going to go this year. Houston has scouted all three A&M games and has movies of the Georgia game. A&M has been un able to get a look at the Cougars this year through movies (you can’t take movies of an intersec tional game involving a SWC team). The Cougars also Jhave a potent offense, so the Cadet de fense is going to get a strong- workout. Last week, the Ags “showed a lot of guts,” as Coach Paul Bryant said. If they do the same Sat urday, they should win. Texas — Oklahoma In five of their last six meet ings, OU has beaten the Steers. Ed Price and hisi boys reportedly have been pointing for this one since last year’s defeat and will be as ready as they will ever be. The Sooners, ranked first in the nation, will have soph Jim my Harris at quarterback for in jured Gene Calame, and there’s going to be a lot of pressure on the youngster. (Hdrris report edly once signed a letter of in tent to enter A&M.) If Texas wants to stay any where near the top of national ratings, they have to win this one. They still have some of the best material in the country— just seem to need a little more spirit now. Rice — Wisconsin Dicky Moegle ran only six times against Cornell, gained 168 yards and scored four touchdowns. But Wisconsin has a powerful defense and fullback Alan Ameche, and this nationally televised game figures to be a hard fought ball game all the way. Wisconsin SMU — SMU has too much everywhere for Missouri and shouldn’t have to open up too much. Quarter back Duane Nutt should up well in the Georgia Tech game, and the Mustangs should be better than last year. TCU - TCU’s soph quarterback Charlie Curtis will play only in spots, so completely stopped Michigan State’s Leroy Bolden last week, so Moegle is in for trouble. Cornell scored its three touch downs against the Owls on passes, and the Badgers will be mixing aerials with Ameche’s plunging. Still, Rice will have the desire plus an easier preceding game. Missouri The Pony defense held Tech to 49 yards rushing, and Mis souri doesn’t have backs like Billy Teas and Wade Mitchell of the Engineers. This appears the safest bet of the lot. -use under, will have a big job. The Trojans are unbeaten and are rank ed in the nation’s top 10. Froggie Ronald Clinkscale, the senior man- fight won’t be enough here. Baylor — Arkansas Baylor, bruised, battered and dispirited after the loss to Mi ami, should be the underdog in Fayetteville.

Arkansas should be feeling mighty good over its TCU win but here’s a vote for the Bears, based on the feeling they’ll have more bounce to the ounce Sat urday than the Hogs. The A&M freshman football team piled up a heavy statistical edge Wednesday in the 7-0 win over the TCU Wogs before 18,000 fans in Amon Carter stadium. Gaining nearly 350 yards total offense compared to less than 150 yards for the TCU freshmen, the Fish had an equally lop-sided ad vantage in first downs, chalking up 16 while the Wogs settled for 6 first downs. Led by the hard-running 200- pound halfback John Crow, the freshmen galloped for 258 yards rushing. Crow had 83 yards on 13 carries for an average of over 6 yards per carry and Ed Dudley, the other halfback, ran for 55 yards in 13 tries for more than 4 yards per carry. The Fish score came midway in the third period after fumbles muffed several scoring opportuni ties in the first half. Taking the ball on their own 43, they marched down to the TCU 16 with Crow plunges adding up to 30 yards during the drive. From the 16, Dudley took a pitchout from Quarterback Jim Wright and circled wide to the left to cross the double stripe just in side the red flag marker. Crow added the extra point and the scor ing was over for the evening. Jerry Mount Sets ’Mural Swim Mark Jerry Mount of Milner Hall splashed to a new upperclassman mural record in the 300 foot free style event with a time of 1:00.5 seconds at the P. L. Downs jr. natatorium last night. The old record was set by Don Horn in 1953 with a time of 1:01.5 seconds. Other upperclassmen who qual ified in the freestyle were West, D Inf.; Dye, Puryear; Ware, D Inf.; Weatherby, Sqdn. 1; Goetzke, A Ord.; Lewis, A Armor; Kes- singer, B Inf.; Winburn, Law Hall and Bellinger, B Field Art. Fletcher, Sqdn. 25, had the best qualifying time for the freshmen with 1:05.0 seconds. He missed the old record of one minute flat set by R. H. Taylor in 1940 by five seconds. Other freshmen who qualified were Strikland, Sqdn. 5; Colwich, B Eng.; Ragsdale, Sqdn. 6; Quinn, Sqdn. 1; Cooper, Sqdn. 7; Jones, Sqdnr 18; Hundley, D Field Art.; Middleton, Sqdn. 2; and Wilson, A AAA. The 100-foot backstroke will be the next swimming intramural event, scheduled for Tuesday. (Advertisement) SIMP/ WUAT IS VO’ DOtW \N GREEMfc OKI T141S MOT Pf>y? TU' ClRuS LIKE ’EM A.W TWE&e.

Crow miss ed a field goal attempt that appar ently was wide by inches. “I thought for sure it was good,” Coach Willie Zapalac said. Well pleased with the showing the team turned in against the Wogs, Zapalac said the entire team looked very good and that they continued 1 to show improve ment. “They know what they’re out there for,” he said, “and they have the desire and will to win. It’s impossible to pick outstanding players from the squad because they all played good ball.” Zapalac said that Wog recover ies of 7 out of 8 Fish fumbles “hurt plenty,” but that he wasn’t disappointed in the score. “All I know is that we won,” he said. - Battalion Classifieds - BUT, SELL, RENT OR TRADE.

U IT’S TOASTED to taste better! Doubtless, you’ve guessed that the Droodle at the right is: Careless two-gun cowboy enjoying better-tasting Lucky while wait ing in ambush. Lots of other two-gun cow boys—and many millions of no-gun folks— agree that Luckies taste better. Students, for example, prefer Luckies to all other brands, according to the latest, biggest coast-to-coast college survey. Once again, the No. 1 reason is that Luckies taste better. They taste better because Lucky Strike is the cigarette of fine tobacco . . . and “It's Toasted” to taste better. “It's Toasted”—the famous Lucky Strike proc ess—tones up Luckies’ light, mild, good tasting tobacco to make it taste even better. So, enjoy the better-tasting ciga rette . . . Lucky Strike.
