With the Southwest Conference baseball race past the
halfway mark, A&M gets set to move into Dallas this week
end for a two-game series with the potent SMU Ponies.
SMU, after losing four straight games to the Aggies by
one run, will be bent on revenge in the Friday and Saturday
contests. Coach Alex Hook’s Mustangs are currently battling
Baylor for the second place
position in the conference.
The Mustangs and Bears
both have won five and lost
three to stand only two games
back of the league leading TCU
Horned Frogs. Last weekend the
Bruins surpx-ised SMU by pound
ing out a 5-1 victory at Waco.
A&M, NOW FOURTH in loop
standings, dropped almost out of
contention for the title last week
end at Austin by dividing a two-
game series with Texas. The Ag
gies are just under the .500 mark
in conference action so far with
three wins and four losses.
Shortstop Joe Boring continues
to pace the Cadets in hitting
through 16 games with a .311 av
erage. Boring is third in batting
on the A&M team in conference
play with .240.

Consolidated, 16-9
Navasota’s previously weak-hitting Rattlers came off
the floor yesterday to pound the A&M Consolidated Tigers,
16-9, in a district game that saw 20 base hits scattered among
18 errors.
The Rattlers, who were winless in the first round of play
and had fallen to the Tigers, 5-3, capitalized on four hits, four
walks, a hit batsman and two
CHS errors to run off with an
eight-run lead in the first in
ning. Both teams made 9 er
rors.
The Tigers battled back with six
tallies in the second on hits by Al
ton Arnold and Bobby Potts, five
walks and five errors and added
another in the third to pull to 8-7.
