^ At the halfway mark of the
w 1956 track season, A&M’s run,
jump and throw set entertains the
dangerous Rice- Owls and SMU’s
Mustangs on Kyle Field tomorrow.
Both varsity and freshmen
squads are set to go with the field
events opening the Aggies’ second
home appearance at 2 p.m. and the
runners getting the nod at 2:30.
Kice brings a strong squad up
from Houston and will be looking
for their second meet win over the
. Aggies this season. The Owls fin
ished second behind Texas with
A&M third earlier on their home
track, but the Cadets took their
■ measure with a triangular victory
in Baton Rouge three weeks ago.
The Aggies haven’t faced SMU in
anything but the larger meets yet
this year.
“It’ll be a toss-up between us and
Rice,” said head track coach Frank
Anderson. “If we take at least
second in the sprint relay we could
win it, but we’re going to have a

A year ago Rice swept to first
place in the meet in Houston, scor
ing 71 points to A&M’s 67 and
SMU’s 32.
The Owls will be tough in both
relays and the middle distances
and could break in to the Aggies’
weight monopoly. The Rice four

Travis Park in Bryan. These same
two teams will meet again Satur
day night at the same time. Coach
Bell indicated that he will go with
his ace righthander, Dick Munday,
tomorrow night.
Baylor is currently engaged in a
two-way scrap for the second place
position in conference standings
with SMU. Both hold 3-2 records
against loop foes and stand only
one game back of league leading
Texas Christian.
The Aggies come into tonight’s
game with a record of one win and
two losses in SWC play, good
enough for fourth place in .the
standings. The Cadets lost a good
chance of nabbing the conference
lead here last weekend, dropping a
two-game series to TCU, 5-1 and
2-0.
Baylor was regarded as a def
inite title threat by the experts
before the season started, but
failed to show its predicted cham
pionship form last weekend by
splitting a doubleheader with the
cellar dwelling Rice Owls.
Newton has been the Aggies
most efective hurler to date with
an earned run average of 1.8. The
speedy Galveston lefty has averag
ed better than a strikeout an in
ning with 37 whiffs in 33 and two-
thirds innings, and owns a 2-2 won-
lost record.
