Highlights
John Channing pitched no-hit,
no-run ball as A chemical showed
the power they used to capture the
’54 upperclassmen softball cham
pionship by slaughtering squadron
4, 17-0, last Tuesday.
Only two men reached first—
those on errors—as Channing twirl
ed his second shutout of the cam
paign. His chemical corps mates
batted around in both the second
and third innings, scoring seven
and 10 runs.
Barry Hart and Julius Jahns
slammed back-to-back circuit blasts
in the second and Hart tripled in
the following frame. Dale McCul
lough had a perfect day at the plate
for the army team with two singles
and a walk.
Vic Zuckero’s homer in the third
was the difference for B field ar
tillery as they edged squadron 20,
1-0, on the one-hit pitching of
Larry Piper. Bannister Fargular
gave up but two hits for squadron
20.
Tommy Sudderth and Paul Duke
provided the margin of victory with
four baggers to push B anti-air
craft artillery to a 3-2 win over
squadron 6.
C anti-aircraft artillery, helped
by consecutive base knocks by Ben
Alcala, Ed Gilmore and Bruce Ter
ry, scored three runs in the third
and went on to defeat squadron 1,
5-2. Terry spread four hits over
five innings to win. t
Other games saw C field artil
lery down A quartermaster, 9-8,
while in freshmen softball, B engi
neers edged A. armor, 10-9, and
squadron 13 sunk squadron 1, 11-0.
The white band continued its
winning ways in upperclassmen

Dallas Game
Will Decide
Conference Lead
Based On AP Reports
The Aggie-Pony game in
Dallas today will decide who
takes the Southwest confer
ence baseball lead.
A&M and Southern Metho
dist University tied for the confer
ence lead, will play to see who falls
off the top.
SMU pushed into a tie for the
lead by beating Texas Christian
3-0 last week.
A&M played only non-conference
games with Sul Ross. The Aggies
won one 4-1, lost the other 7-6.
Rice bashed Texas 3-1 in the
week’s only other conference game.
This virtually wiped out the
Longhorn’s last hope of sharing the
title they held so many years.
Texas has lost three conference
games in just two weeks of play.
Independent Texas Lutheran de
feated Baylor 11-7 and 6-3. The
Texas League Dallas Eagles beat
SMU 13-3 in their annual exhibition
game.
On tap this week are nine con
ference games.
Tuesday, A&M and SMU play
at Dallas, Baylor and Texas play
at Austin and TCU and Rice at
Foi’t Worth. Fi’iday and Saturday
A&M plays Texas at Coltege Sta
tion and Rice and SMU clash at
Dallas. TCU and Baylor play at
Waco Saturday.
New Coach Expected
To Arrive Today
EBBA MAKING COMEBACK
RICHMOND, Va. UP)—Ebba St.
Claire, former major league catch
er, is trying to make a comeback
this year with the Richmond Vir
ginians of the International league.
St. Claire started last season
with the Giants bu£ was sent to
Minneapolis of the American assn.
In August he was hit in the head
with a pitched ball and didn’t re
turn to action until the end of the
campaign.
Ebba has been “beaned” three
times—each by a lefthander.
Ken Loeffler, former LaSalle
court wizard who is A&M’s new
basketball coach, plans to come to
A&M today to talk things over
with Athletic Director Paul (Bear)
Bryant, then start off his new ca
reer with a spring training ses
sion.
Loeffler has been on tour with
the College All-Stars and the Har
lem Globetrotters.
He said he would come to A&M
Tuesday and personally supervise
at least a week of spring practice.
He is also a teacher of business
administration at LaSalle, and may
have to go back for a few days to
wind up details.
Some of the problems he will
talk over with Bryant will be who
will be assistant basketball coach
and recruiting.
Guesses are still wide open as
to who will be the assistant coach,

but there’s no doubht about Loeff-
ler’s recruiting plans.
He said that he hoped to build
up the team, preferably with Tex
as boys, but that he wouldn’t turn
down an out-of-stater. He also ad
mits that he’s already been look
ing around Texas, and has a few
good prospects lined up.

ARE YOU LOOKING for a completely enjoy
able cigarette? Then get a clue from the
Droodle above, titled: Smoke rings blown
by riveter enjoying Luckies. Fasten on to
Luckies yourself. Luckies are such great
shakes because they taste better. And
they taste better for excellent reasons.
First of all, Lucky Strike means fine
tobacco. Then, that tobacco is toasted to
taste better. “Ifs Toasted’’—the famous
Lucky Strike process—tones up Luckies’
light, good-tasting tobacco to make it
taste even better . . . cleaner, fresher,
smoother. So, whenever it’s light-up time,
enjoy yourself fully. Enjoy the better
tasting cigarette . . . Lucky Strike.
