Saturday at Kyle Field Aggies To Battle Froggies Friday Night at Travis Park League leading Texas A&M and runner-up Texas Christian meet in a crucial Southwest conference baseball series Friday and Satur day before the home folk. The Aggies and TCU tangle Fri day night at Travis Park in Bryan in a night contest starting at 8. The Saturday afternoon game on Kyle field will begin at 2. The Aggies were rained out at Houston Tuesday and ‘ the three Rice games now will be played at Bryan and College Station May 4 and 5. The May 4 Rice game will be another night contest at Bryan while the two teams play a double- header May 5 on Saturday after noon on Kyle field. A&M has two other games sched uled for Travis park under the lights. They are the two Baylor games of April 13 and 14. The Aggies divided a pair with the Corpus Christi Clippers of the Big State league over the holidays. The Clippers shelled four Aggie hurlers for 14 hits in winning the first game, 15-8, but Dick Munday, righthander from Bryan, pitched A&M past the Clippers, 5-2 in the Friday night game at Corpus.

SMU’s win over TCU and Baylor’s upset of Texas sent A&M into the lead with a 1-0 record. TCU and Bay lor are tied for second with 2-1 records while Texas is fourth with a 1-1 mark. The Aggies stand G-3 for the season having divided games with Corpus Christi, University of Hous ton and Texas Lutheran, beaten Sam Houston State twice and SMU once. The hitting of Outfielders Phil Newport and Behn Hubbard at Corpus cheered Bell's hopes for be ing a strong contender to repeat as SWC champions. The Aggie coach has had trouble finding the big hitters in the outfield and if Newport and Hubbard continue to wield a big stick the outfield will be set along with the veteran John Stockton. Another note of progress during the holidays was the way Munday regained his 1955 form. The Ag gie junior has been belted around in his first three mound appearan ces this season but looked great in limiting the Clippers to just six hits. He has walked only five in 24 innings and his earned lam av erage dropped to 3.7. Toby Newton, the ace lefthander from Galveston, after the beauti fully pitched 1-0 shutout over SMU, was wild at Corpus and walked seven in the five and a third innings he worked before being chased by Corpus in the first game. He was hit for five runs, all earned, and his ERA went quickly from zero to 1.8. Bell will have several relief hurl- What, What Not To Do List About Recruiting J (
