Fish Host Rice Slimes On Kyle Field at 7:30 By JOE DAN BOYD Assistant Sports Editor “Both Charles Milstead and Charles Schlemmer will play in tonight’s Fish-Slime game,” ac cording to Assistant Coach Sam Bailey. “With both our quarter backs ready, we’re at our best phy sical condition in weeks.” Milstead, sidelined from the Baylor fracas, is back in top form and the rapidly-improving Schlem mer continues to draw praise from the Aggie coaching staff. “Injuries aren’t entirely whipped, however,” according to Bailey, “Larry Ward won’t play in to night’s game because of a shoulder injury.” The Nederland power house has recently been moved from end position to center and LADIES . . .

Ridgecrest Shopping Center had adapted well up to the time of his injury. At the Slime camp Coach Charlie Moore says, “We’ve got a good starting lir^e-up, but be yond that there’s not much. Our squad is terribly thin this year.” Bobby LaBorde, sparkling Owlet halfback, was the team’s leading ground gainer last week agaihst Del Mar Junior College. It’s a toss up between him and Billy Bucek for the starting left half slot. Fish Halfback Gordon LeBeouf continues to hit hard and charge with lightning agility during prac tice.

Coach Ken Loeffler begins his second season as Aggie head man with no where to go but up. “If we come through this year,” said Loeffler, “We can be up off the floor by next.” EYES EXAMINED GLASSES PRESCRIBED DR.

Sophomore center Stu Hellel, 6-6 from McKeesport, Pa., is Loeffler’s chief rebounder, but has been suffering from an re occuring ear injury and hasn’t worked out for the past two weeks. Heller will probably be back in uniform next Monday. After three weeks of getting in shape and primarily taking it easy, Loeffler started working his teams the length of the court this week, concentrating on ball hand ling and set shooting. With Heller missing, A&M’s first varsity five finds Erwin Turner, 6-4, Jack Sch- wake, 6-5, Neil Swisher, 6-1, Ken Hutto, 6-0, and George Mehaffey, 6-4. Mehaffey played for the SWC All-Stars and scored eight points as the Stars lost to the 1956 Olym pic squad, 90-66. Mehaffey is the only senior, with Hutto a junior and the other three sophs. George Kelleher of Springfield, Mass., and Sam Niness of Bryn Mawr, Pa., are co-captains of the Trinity College football team. the nattnlinn <.allege , Thursday, Novembrr 8, 1956 The Battalion College Station (Brazos County), Texas PAGE 5 Crow ‘Back of Week’ ' -'Mustangs Thinking About '48 Contest By BARRY HART Battalion Sports Editor SMU enters Saturday’s Dallas contest with A&M un beaten in Southwest Conference play for the first time since 1948 and the Mustangs hope it’s a good omen. The Ponies on the hilltop last won a conference champion ship in 1948, beating the Aggies 20-14, but Paul Bryant’s wrecking crew are out to make sure history doesn’t repeat itself. A crowd approaching 65,000 is expected in the Cotton Bowl—the biggest turnout of the season, surpassing the Notre Dame game which drew 61,000 customers. The contest will match the all-the-way aerial attack of SMU against the overwhelming ground game of the heavily- favored Aggies. The Methodists, with passer Charlie Arnold, have averaged 140 yards per game through the air, while A&M has rolled to 252.7 yards on foot. The Cadets, who al lowed their' seven opponents but 194.1 yards average, 54.7 of that total in the ozone. Arnold, who a year ago played only 55 minutes and couldn’t get the job done, leads the league in passing yardage and has thrown for eight touchdowns in six games. That’s just three short of the SMU record held by Gil Johnson in 1948 and Fred Benners in 1950 and 51. For the second week in a row, A&M’s John Crow, certainly the SWC’s finest halfback, won the Dallas News Back of the Week award on the basis of his fine all- around play against Arkansas. Crow gained 72 yards, scored twice and was his usual devastating self on defense.

Several injured starters will be back in action for tonight’s final skirmish. Condy Pugh, Consolidated’s fearsome fullback, enters the fray with a 6.2 average from 73 carries this football season, having cover ed some 455 yards on the ground. Speedy Ronnie Rea is second with a 5.2 average from 49 attempts and has. a total of 256 rushing yards.
