Ags Tangle With Rugged Cornhuskers
Tomorrow Afternoon Before 38,000
The Batt Predicts
A&M over Nebraska
TCU over Alabama
Baylor over Arkansas
SMU over Missouri
Rice over Clemson
Oklahoma over Texas
By RONNIE GREATHOUSE
Battalion Sports Editor
A&M tries to patch up an
old wound tomorrow when it
tangles with the rugged, but
erratic, Nebraska Cornhusk
ers at Lincoln, Neb. before a
sell-out crowd of 38,000.
The Cornhuskers beat the Aggies
13-0 in 1930 in the only meeting
between the two teams on the
gridiron.
WTAW’s Bob Walker will
broadcast a play-by-play account
of the game starting at 2 p.m.
Cloit Butler begins a pre-game
warm up at 1:50.
The Aggie football team, 36
strong, left by plane at 10 a.m.
this morning from Easterwood
Airport. Workouts tapered off
yesterday, after Wednesday’s hard
scrimmage session, and the Cadets
appeared in their usual fine shape
for Saturday’s game.
Stalwart guard Dee Powell, who
has been outstanding in all three
of A&M’s games this season, hurt
his knee in Wednesday’s drills, but
will definitely be available for ac
tion against Nebraska.
Experts Pick Ags
Still on the doubtful list for see
ing duty Saturday is quarterback
Bobby Conrad. Conrad, who in
jured his leg in workouts before
the LSU game, won’t start unless
his condition has improved greatly
since Thursday’s workout.
FV
STARTING QUARTERBACK for A&M tomorrow is Don
nie Grant. At present Grant ranks 10th among SWC ball
carriers.
Most of the experts are of the
opinion that the Aggies will down
the Cornhuskers, but by a slender
margin.
“I just hope we can make it a
tough game,” said Coach Paul Bry
ant, “Nebraska will run over us if
we don’t watch out.”
“They weren’t just standing
around in the game I saw them
play, I’ll tell you for sure,” re
marked Assistant Coach Tom
Tipps, who scouted the Cornhusk
ers last week when they beat Kan
sas State 16-0.
A&M Ground Attack
Boasting three players among
the top ten ball carriers in the
Southwest Conference at present,
A&M goes into the Nebraska frac
as with a 239.3-yards per game
average in rushing. The Aggies
rank second only to TCU in this
department.
Jarrin’ John Crow and Jack Par
dee rank third and fourth respec
tively in SWC rushing. Crow is
only 11 yards behind second place
Henry Moore of Arkansas with
204 yards in Bl carries for a 6.6
average. Pardee has 169 yards in
24 trips, and a 7.0 average per try.
Quarterback Donnie Grant holds
down the 10th position among con
ference runners with 135 yards in
27 attempts for a 4.7 average.
Jimmy Wright, hustling signal-
caller from Edinburg, is 9th in con
ference passing, having hit 6 of 21
passes for a total of 80 yards, and
an average of over 13 yards per
pass.
Right halfback Ed Dudley stands
No. 2 in conference punting with
an average of 47.3 yards per kick.
Gerald Nesbitt of Arkansas is first
with 47.6. Halfback Loyd Taylor
is second in point after touchdown
kicks with a perfect 5 for 5 mark.
Nebraska has had its ups and
downs on the football field this
year, having fallen before weak
Hawaii, 0-6, in its opener, and
rise up to almost upset highly
rated Ohio State the following Sat
urday.
Runner-up in the Big Seven Con
ference behind Oklahoma last sea
son, the Cornhuskers have 14 .re
turning lettermen to build around.

Fish Football
(Continued from Page 1)
Lonnie Leatherman punched over
from one yard out. The try for
point was low.
Hall broke lose for the game’s
most thrilling run on the following
kickoff as he moved up the middle,
found a hole and sprinted 59 yards
to the TCU 26. Back at quarter
back, Hall kept for 2 and on the
next play handed off to Pascuzzi
who darted 24 yards for the final
counter. With Hall holding, Pas
cuzzi converted to make the final
score, 27-6.
All-around aggressiveness by the
stout Aggie line threw the TCU
backs for losses at crucial moments
and caused them to fumble five
times. Center Dick Goff, guards
Tom Howard, Carl Luna and tack
le Harold Price played outstanding
games for the Fish.
