Both are listed in the army’s starting lineup for today’s 12th Man Bowl game. ’s Practice Hard For Tournaments Johnny Sain of the Yankees pitched in 39 games last season. All were in relief. Faced with two tough tourna ment dates during the holidays, A&M’s varsity basketballei’s re turned to practice yesterday and concentrated on offense. Co-captain John Fortenberry showed signs that he may be snap ping out of his scoring slump, pumping in one hand jump and set shots with regularity in the latter part of the workout. Coach John Floyd first sent his team through a session against the Fish, then had his starters work ing against a zone defense set up by the reserves. Through most of the latter work out, the Cadets had Lee Smith and Roger Harvey at guards, Bill Bro- phy and Fortenberry at forwards, and George Mehaffey at center. Fortenberry lofted in numerous shots from the left side as the Ag gies at times exhibited some snappy passing. Mehaffey and Brophy also turned in some fine play close to the basket. Brophy’s 28 points against LSU gave him 56 points for the season and a 14.0 average per game. Me haffey is the team’s leading re bounder with 37. Harvey a sopho more, has made 11 of 25 field The Milwaukee Braves have high hopes for George Crowe in 1955. He led the American Assn, with 128 runs batted in and finished second in home runs with 34.
