THE BATTALION
Why do more college
men and women smoke
Viceroys
than any other
filter cigarette?
Because only Viceroy
gives you 20,000 filter traps
* in every filter tip, made
from a pure natural substance
— cellulose—found in delicious
fruits and other edibles!

Yes, only Viceroy has this filter composed of 20,000 tiny
filter traps. You cannot obtain the same filtering action
in any other cigarette. 1
The Viceroy filter wasn’t just whipped up and rushed to
market to meet the new and skyrocketing demand for fil
tered cigarettes. Viceroy pioneered. Started research more
than 20 years ago to create the pure and perfect filter.
Smokers en masse report that filtered Viceroys have a
finer flavor even than cigarettes without filters. Rich,
satisfying, yet pleasantly mild.
Viceroy draws so easily that you wouldn’t know, without
looking, that it even had a filter tip . . . and Viceroys cost
only a penny or two more than cigarettes without filters!
That’s why more college men and women smoke VICEROYS than
any other filter cigarette . . . that’s why VICEROY is the largest-
selling filter cigarette in the world!

Explodes;
are for Texas

Just to prove last Satur
day’s dramatic scoring spree
was no fluke the Aggies
scored 20 touchdowns in 22
minutes of scrimmaging yes
terday.
“It was the most satisfactory
scrimmage I’ve had since I’ve been
coaching,” said Paul Bryant,
A&M’s head mentor.
Quarterbacks Don Watson, Don
nie Grant and Jimmy Wright di
rected the assault on a weak second
string Fish defense. All of the
Cadet backs looked good during the
short head-knocking session. Bry
ant plans to have at least two more
days of scrimmage this week.
JACK PARDEE is still A&M’s
top ball-carrier, and his 438 yards
gained on 78 trips are good enough
to rank him fourth among South
west Conference runners. Texas’
great Walter Fondren holds down
the third position, just 41 yards
above Pardee.
Sophomore halfback John Crow
appears to have lost his battle with
Fondren of Texas for a berth on
the all-conference eleven. Crow
managed only 29 yards on eight
tries against Rice last Saturday to
fall further behind Fondren in the
rushing department. Crow needs
165 yards to catch up with the
Texas star.
END EUGENE Stallings, who
played his best game of the year
against Rice, was one of the top
nominees for Lineman of the Week
in the nation this week. Stallings
intercepted two passes against
Rice Satm-day, and now leads the
SWC in pass interceptions with
fom\
The Aggies boast the second best
ground attack in the league, having
gained 232.6 yards per game. TCU
is tops with 297 on the ground.
A&M has the best defense against
passes among conference schools,
and it should meet the acid test
Thanksgiving Day. Texas has one
of the nation’s finest aerial attacks
and leads the loop with 120.3 yards
per game.
A&M’s FISH, who can clinch the
first-year championship of the
SWC Saturday by downing Texas’
Shorthorns, ran through a rugged
scrimmage session yesterday. The
first team ran offensive plays
while the second unit tried to stop
the varsity’s murderous attack.
Joe Pascuzzi, the leading ball
carrier on the freshman squad, will
definitely start Saturday. Pascuzzi
ran only once in the Rice game last
Friday night, but still holds a 1-
yard lead over Luther Hall. He
boasts a 6.2 yards per-try average.

‘SWC’s Finest Lineman’
Foes Wilt When
Gray Sees Red
Austin, Texas — The Southwest
Conference’s finest lineman, Texas’
terrific Herb Gray, appears des
tined to follow in the All-Ameri
can steps of his illustrious Bay-
town predecessors—Tom Stoldand-
ske of Texas and Rice’s Kosse
Johnson.
Gray has been a menace for three
seasons, but currently is at the ton
of his game as he bids for All-
American recognition. A pre-sea
son choice as a junior, Herb missed
out because' of a mid-year slump.
He was one of those missing a
frame as Coach Ed Price took stern
disciplinary measures.
Gray won the admiration of
Southwest observers with his spir
ited comeback in the final two
games as Texas scored victories
over TCU And A&M. He was pick
ed on the all-opponent teams se
lected by Oklahoma and Notre
Dame, the nation's number three
and four teams.
Saddled with unique as well as
vital chores this season, Gray has
been consistently outstanding". He
was switched from tackle to guard
to better exploit his blocking skill
and moves to end in Texas’ five-
man line on defense where his
speed and strength is needed to
harass rival quai'terbacks.
Herb’s new defensive role gives
him fewer chances for the spectac
ulars he revealed in previously,
yet he still comes up with the big
play, as his alertness in recent
games will attest.
Against Rice, Gray recovered Vir
gil Mutschink’s fumble on the Owl
24 to set up Texas’ second touch
down in what proved to be the
turning point as the Longhorns
buried Rice, 32-14.
Texas was two touchdowns be
hind in the SMU game when Herb
grabbed a Pony fumble on the
SMU 24 late in the second quar
ter. The Longhoims scored on the
next play, and three minutes later
Gray pounced on another loose ball
on the Mustang 28. Texas needed
but five plays to score again and
took a one-point lead that ulti
mately meant victory.
Regarding his multiple choi’es.
Gray perfers defense because “I
iust like to go after that ball car
rier.” Line Coach J. T. King credits
“competitive spirit and fine reac
tion” with making Herb a great
defensive ball player. “His quick
ness of mind and foot enables him
to get away from blockers and

against the Rice Slimes, picking up
75 yards to run his season total
to 179. John Tracey is third in
rushing on the Fish team with 102
yards. Ronnie Melling has the
best yards per-try average. Mel
ling has gained 90 yards in 12
smashes for a 7.5 average.
The Fish rate a slight favoi-ite
in the season finale for both teams.
The Shorthorns, although winless
thus far, have moved along fast
since their opening loss to the Bay
lor Cubs, 7-48. They lost to Rice
13-20, SMU 0-13 and tied TCU’s
Wogs 7-7.
A&M’s freshmen defeated the
Wogs 27-6, the Baylor Cubs 7-6 and
the Houston freshmen 7-6 before
being tied 19-19 by Rice.
