    Consolidated Closes Out
Non-District in Tomball
In the throes of a three-game
losing streak in which they have
failed to score a single point, the
A&M Consolidated Tigers close out
their non-district schedule to
night at 8 p. m. against the Tom
ball Cougars on the latter’s home
field.
Coach Horace Schaffer’s injury-
plagued Tigers, whitewahed in each
of their last three tilts, stand at
1-4 for the season concluding a rug
ged iron-conference slate.
The Cougar line averages 182
pounds and the backfield evens off
at 156. They have a 4-1 mark hav
ing lost only to powerful Sweeny,
one of the state’s leading AA
aggregations.
Pre - game statistics, however,
offer a slight advantage to CHS’s
Tigers. Both teams are credited
with wins over Madisonville’s Mus
tangs. CHS walloped the Mustangs
28-20 while Sweeny eked out a
scant 14-13 win. •

At almost full strength for the
first time in 1956, A&M trjes once-
beaten Houston before a partisan
60,000 Homecoming crowd tomor
row night in Rice Stadium.
Only Dennis Goehring, all-
SVVC regular right guard, will
not see any action against a
Cougar team that would con
sider their season a good one if
they succeeded in beating only
the Aggies. Right halfback Loyd
Taylor, who did nothing but kick
against Texas Tech, will be back
as will regular left guard Murry
Trimble, who watched the Raider
game from the bench.

2013 So. College Bryan

Now is the time for all good (?) sportswriters to pick
the winners of their choice for the coming Saturday wars.
Didn’t do as well last week with Texas getting beat and Rice
winning, but the count is still a very fine 11 hits, two misses,
no ties for the season.
There’s only one Southwest Conference game on tap this
weekend as Baylor takes on Arkansas in Fayetteville. TCU,
SMU and Rice leave the state for contests against Alabama,
Duke and Florida, while Texas tries Oklahoma in Dallas and
A&M moves against Houston in Houston.
Here are my choices for tomorrow:
A&M 20 . . HOUSTON 12
OKLAHOMA 40 . TEXAS 14
BAYLOR 27 . . ARK. 13
TCU 34 . . ALABAMA 7
RICE 14 . . FLORIDA 7
SMU 21 ... . DUKE 20
The Cougars will be “up” for
their homecoming tomorrow night
and the expected 60,000 hometown
fans will help some, but they have
n’t got the guns to down the im
proving Aggies. Looks like Bry
ant’s bring-em-along-slow c a m -
paign is beginning to pick up.
Oklahoma which has scored
102 points to their opponents 0
in two games thus far, will win
their fifth in a row over an un
derdog Longhorn team.
The Bears have too much for the
light Hogs, even though this one is
in Fayetteville. Arkansas will
make more of a game of it than
they did against TCU.
The nation’s fourth-ranked team,
TCU, will have no trouble putting

PUZZLES
down Alabama, who was beaten by
Rice in their opening game. The
Horned Toads are being- touted as
the SWC’s finest team in years.
I picked the Owls to lose last
weekend, so will pick them to
morrow in a game that should be
close. Florida has the home ad
vantage but Jess Neely is bring
ing his Houston boys along. Too
much Ryan for the Sunshine
State bunch.
SMU has lots of offensive punch,
as shown by last week’s 33-27 win
over Missouri. The Duke Blue
Devils has lost twice and this one
could go either way. I’ll take the
SWC entry in pure prejudice.
ing 14-0, Houston puts its finest
eleven on the turf hoping to knock
the Aggies out of the nation’s top
10 teams. A&M holds a 2-1-1 edge
in the close series that had its be
ginning in 1952.
The Cougars have more speed
than they know what to do with—
eight backs that have run the 100
in 10 seconds or less—and a tough
line that fought the heavy Ole Miss
gang evenly after the opening 10
minutes.
Houston hopes to break even
in Homecoming games tomor
row, having posted a 4-5-1 re
cord over the years. Coach Bill
Meek took the Cats to a 6-4
season in 1955, his first in the
South’s biggest city.
“We have a more diversified
attack, but with the schedule that
confronts us, we could have a much
better team and still not equal the
1955 record,” said Meek.

Wogs Down Fish, 26-14
The TCU Wogs turned on their
vaunted power to put the second
straight defeat on the 1956 Fish,
26-14, in Fort Worth last night
before a crowd of 10,000 and a TV
audience.
The game wasn’t all the first-
year Aggies lost. Thieves broke
into the A&M dressing room dur
ing the game and stole 60 in cash.
