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

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.

Trojans are unbeaten and are rank

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 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.

Later in the contest. 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.

Co-captains Announce Hopes For
UNDEFEATED SEASON
Our nationally famous
co-captains, when inter
viewed in the locker room
after Saturday’s game,
had this to say, “Sure,
we got good talent on
the team this year, but
we wouldn’t get to first
base (sic) with our
schedule, if it wasn’t for
our trainer.” When asked
to explain, they said, “We
just squeaked through
our first two games...
but now the trainer has
put a Dr. Pepper vendor
in the locker room. Our
boys get such a Lift foi
Life there will be no stop,

What makes a Lucky taste better?
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.
