Bryant. “Anybody that can
beat Mississippi must have a
terrific ball club.”
The Razorbacks are the only
Southwest Conference club besides
Texas to hold a series edge' on the
Aggies, with a 14-12-3 lead. A&M
hasn’t beaten Arkansas since 1952,
when they scored a 31-12 victory on
Kyle Field. Led by Lamar McHan,
the Hogs slaughtered the ’53
Cadets, 41-14, edged Bryant’s first
A&M team, 14-7, on their, way to
the league title, and played to a
7-7 tie last year that knocked the
Aggies out of a championship
share.
Assistant Coach Elmer Smith,
who scouted Arkansas against
Mississippi, reports the Razorbacks
to be “. . . a team with muscles.”
Coach “General Jack” Mitchell, in
his second year as Hog head man,
brings a team that is very similar
to the Aggies in statistics and
style of play.
Primarily a rushing team Ark
ansas has gained an average 252
yards on the ground through six
games while passing for only 44.8.
Like the Aggies they pursue the
A NEW IDEA!
A new idea in men’s fashions
has just hit the local market! The
new idea is in the form of a sport
shirt with adjustable sleeve lengths
and is produced by Sea Island.
The shirt has adjustable cuffs
which are quickly and easily ad
justed. It’s a good buy at only
$4.95, especially for those of you
who have “bull” necks and short
arms or thin necks and long arms,
since the trouble in getting the
proper sleeve length to correspond
with the neck size is eliminated.
The'A&M MEN’S SHOP, located
at North Gate, is currently hand
ling these shirts and from all re
ports, they’re selling like “hot
cakes”. Incidentally the A&M Men’s
Shop is run by an Aggie, Dick
Rubin, ’59, from Tyler, Texas.
Drop on by the first chance
you get and ask him to show you
some of these shirts. (Adv.)

Fullback Gerald Nesbitt, 200-
pounder from Big Sandy, Texas,
paces the SWC rushers with 437
yards on 75 carries for a fine 5.8
average. A&M counters with All-
American candidate Jack .Pardee,
whose 331 yards place him fourth
in the league with a 5 - yard
average.
Quarterback Don Chiistian, who
took over for two-year regular
George Walker before the season
started, has come strong and now
stands seventh in the conference
in total offense on the strength of
267 yards rushing and 147 through
the air. Christian picked up 122
rushing yards in Arkansas’ 14-0
win over previously lOth-ranked
Mississippi last Saturday.
“I’m very much concerned with
stopping Nesbitt and slowing down
Christian,” said Bryant after Tues
day’s long workout.
The Aggies are at full strength
for the first time this year, come-
ing out of the Baylor game with
only minor injuries.
“We’re in better shape now than
a week ago,” commented Bryant.

UT’s Ed Price
Sets Up Defense
With 3rd Effigy
AUSTIN—(/P)—Texas foot
ball coach Ed Price pointed
Tuesday to a near annihilation
of his 1953 freshman team as
the major factor in the Long
horns dismal season.
Texas - once the bully boy of
the Southwest - now finds itself
rolling straight toward its worst
season since 1938 when the Steers
lost eight of nine games.
And for the third time in little
over a week, Price was hanged
in effigy from a tall light standard
on a practice field less than two
blocks from his office. A card
board sign on the dummy said:
“Take a hint Ed. Go.”
Admitting “we’re pretty thin in
depth,” Price said his boys “have
not or never will turn loose. We
are trying our very best day by
day and game by game.”
Dink Carson and Joe McCarter
led College View to a 33-11 romp
over Leggett Hall in Tuesday’s
Intramural Class A basketball
action.
Carson took high point honors
with nine followed by McCarter
with eight. Leggett’s Villarreal had
six.
Bob Bostic, with 10 points, led
his team to a 16-8 victory over
Sqd. 20. The A armor star was
helped by teammates John Smith
and James Stephens to the win.
Paul Carroll paced Sqd. 21 to a
33-15 win over B Armor with 14
points to take honors. Dicky Cow
ley with scored seven and Tommy
Keith meshed five for the winners,
while A. M. Lowden got six for
the tankers.

its attack against A Ordnance as

Tommy Neuman scored 15 and
Harry Stiteler dropped in 14 as
the air force outfit took a 36-27
victory. P. Biune, with eight, and
D. Woodard, who scored nine, were
high for.the losers.
“Sixty minutes of top - notch
football is the only way to beat a
top-notch team,” asserts alert Ag
gie tackle Charles Krueger chew
ing over last week’s 19-13 Baylor
game.
Krueger, la^t week selected by
the Dallas Morning News as Line
man of the Week, is the type of
gridder who speaks from ex
perience. The 218-pound, 6-4 “Gib-
ralter” was a constant threat in
the Aggie wall against Baylor,
opening holes on the left side all
night for Crow and Hall.
In Baylor’s final series of downs,
the Bears moved from their 13 to
the 22 before abandoning the aerial
routine when Del Shofner’s fumble
was seized by the alert Krueger,
enabling the Aggies to retain
possession for the remainder of the
game.
“We knew the Bears were going
to be a rough and-ready-type ball
club,” drawled the easy going Cald
well Junior, “They always are.
But we tried to meet them on even
A terms. Sometimes their desire to
win the game seemed to over
shadow good judgement,” added
Krueger.
The nineteen-year-old pile-driver
had high praise for the “good old
Baylor line”, but relegated it far
below the faster, harder - hitting
TCU aggregation which succumbed
to A&M a week before.
“Shofner was probably their
most potent runner,” declared the
6-4, 218-pound stalwart, “But
everyone had his moments I guess.
We had a lot of bad luck on the
offensive side early in that game
several times when we got within
scoring distance.”
“Houston is the toughest team
we’ve met all year”, mused
Krueger, “But I don’t think we
were ever worried over one game
any more than the next. It pays to
be worried about them all, soi’ta’
keeps you keyed up.”
“Arkansas is a soundly-coached
team,” said Krueger with reference
to Aggie scouting reports. “We’ll
have to watch that quick line of
theirs. It’s hard to pick any turn
ing point in the season’s play, but
I don’t think anyone else will give
us the fight we’re expecting from
those Razorbacks.”
