12lh Man Bowl
Teams Don Pads,
Gel Con tael Work
By BARRY HART
Assistant Sports Editor
Leather popped and the action
got rough as both the Maroon and
the White teams, opponents in
Thursday’s 12th Man Bowl game,
put on the pads Monday.
With their squads cut to 33
men, the head coaches, Larry
Winkler of the Maroon squad and
Ronald Robbins of the White, con
centrated their efforts on contact
work with only two practice ses
sions left before game time.
Hampered by the loss of two
first line men, halfback Tom Nor
ton and guard Charlie Kugler, who
missed the workout with cases of
the flu, the Whites showed a lot
of spirit and hustle in their prac
tice.
Robbins and his assistants, Henry
Clark, Dee Powell, Bobby Lockett,
and Donald Robbins, put their
charges through a grueling one-
on-one contact session with three
offensive linemen facing three de
fensive men and the backs trying
to run through the line.
“Oren Helvey, Bob Singer, Frank
Webber and Louis Frank are look
ing good,” said Robbins. “Singer
will probably start at quarterback
Thursday.”
Helvey is a stocky 200-pound
fullback while Webber plays end
and Frank is a tough 233-pound
tackle who may have to go both
ways. Frank was very impressive
in Monday's workout, both on of
fense and defense.
Over in the Maroon camp the
session was devoted to a savage
contact period and wound up with
a half-hour full-speed scrimmage.
The offensive team was com
posed of Ed Grey and Ken Briggs
at ends, Ken Upton and A. V.
Gonzalez at tackles, Bob Peters
and Roy Millen at guards and
John Ziegler in the line. Two full
backfields alternated on every
play with Gene Harding and Glen
Rand at quarterback, Channing
Williams and Ted Muenter at left
halfback, Henry Tom and Phil
Newport at right halfback and
Charlie Smith and Didi Thompson
at fullback. They ran from the
White unbalanced-T against the
defensive unit for 15 minutes and
then ran their own plays for the
remainder of the scrimmage.
“It was the best workout we’ve
had so far,” said Coach Winkler.
“They were really butting heads
out there for a change—we were
200 per cent better than Saturday’s
workout.”
Tickets, which are 50 cents each,
will be on sale at the gate. Profits
from the game are used to support
the 12th Man Bowl Scholarship
and the Student Aid Fund.
The half-time show will feature
the Wharton Junior College girls’
drill team.
New Year’s Dance
The Cell Block Seven will play
for the annual Cotton Bowl New
Year’s Eve dance in Dallas Dec
31. Students who are in Dallas
are invited to attend the dance
which starts at 9 p.m. The Cotton

Military Academy, Col. George A. Lincoln. Col. Lincoln
was graduated from the Academy in 1929 and holds a BA
and MA from Oxford. He was on the War Department

Letters
Who’s Who
Editor, Battalion:
Not that it makes any difference,
but your front page story of “D”
Infantry’s Christmas Party for
twenty-nine underprivileged child
ren has a false statement that I
feel should be corrected.
Ken Kuykendall and his execu-
twe officer did not originate the
idea of having a Christmas Party
for underprivileged children. Last
Christmas, squadron 6 gave a
Christmas Party for the second and
third grades of Lincoln School. We
had a Santa Claus, distributed
gifts and had singing and refresh
ments for the little colored child
ren. A fine time was had by all,
and the party was repeated Mon
day night. There were approxi
mately sixty children and their
parents.
Squadron 6 does not claim the
distinction of being the first cadet
unit to give a party of this type.
Although we don’t know for sure,
surely, somewhere in the past “Ole
Army” used this way to express
the true Christmas Spirit.
George W. Parr
Commander, squadron 6
