Coach Les Palmer will call upon
fireballing Percy Sanderson, for
mer schoolboy star from Neder
land, to open the 1957 baseball
season for his A&M freshmen,
when they meet the John Taideton
Plowboys at 3 p.m. Friday on Kyle
Field.
Dallas University will be hosted
in a 2 p.m. game Saturday on Kyle

vino of Jesuit High of New Or
leans will start the Saturday tilt
with both due to pitch.
Sanderson posted a 23-5 record
while in high school last spring,
pitching 28 of Nederland’s 32
games and catching the other four.
He has been plagued by a sore
arm but Coach Palmer reports that
he was throwing hard Wednesday
and will be ready to hurl.
At present there are 25 candi

Masters Tourney
Is Biggest Ever
AUGUSTA, Ga., t/P)—The biggest of all Masters Golf
Tournaments gets underway today with a field of 102 ama
teurs and professionals and without one player who can be
singled out as the favorite.
The Masters started in 1934 as a rather informal golf
party for Bob Jones and some of his friends, played on a then
new course which was des
tined to become one of the
great tests of golfing skill.
1 Since then the tournament
has grown in size and stature
until it has become one of the
most important of the season-re
garded by many golfers as equal in
importance to the U. S. Open cham
pionship. And the big, beautiful
Augusta National Course has ma
tured so that the greatest skill
find endurance are required to win
on it.
This year’s entry list passed a
milestone when more than 100
golfers, the pick of the amateur
and professional crop in the Unit
ed States and four foreign nations,
^ indicated they would start. The
previous high was 84 starters last
year.
The 100-plus total was assured
today when Ed Furgol, Bob Ros-
burg and Gardner Dickinson, all
troubled by painful injuries, said
they would try to play.
Invitations to the Masters are
gained only by past achieve
ments. They go to former Open
Amateur and Masters champions
the top players in previous major
tournaments and members of in
ternational teams. Ten foreign
players were invited on the basis
of performance.
Some of the leading winter tour
performers can’t make it and
few of the old timers don’t really
belong in top flight competition.
Spring Branch; Dink Patterson,
second baseman from North Dal
las; Don Plumlee, shortstop from
Dallas Sunset; Jess Foster, center-
fielder from San Antonio, Brack-
enridge and J. B. Carroll, right-
fielder from College Station, nail
ing down starting berths. Wall
ing' is considered an outstanding
prospect at catcher and was a fine
hitter in high school.
A battle is on for starting berths
at the other positions.
Bill Houchin, lefthander from
Byrd High of Shreveport, and Sam
De Gelia of Hearne are strongest
contenders for the first base job.
Third base is a fight at present
between Joseph Wood of Dallas
Adamson and James Turpin of Port
Arthur with three candidates out
standing in the tussle for the left
field slot in Ronald Green of Aus
tin McCallum, Charles Graf of Ver
non and Bill Clifford of Dunkirk,

Look for Pair of Wins
A&M Nine Tries
T omorrow
By BARRY HART
Coach Beau Bell’s Aggie nine meet defending Southwest
Conference champion TCU tomorrow and Saturday in Ft.
Worth looking for a needed pair of league victories.
After blowing a game each to the University of Texas
and Baylor, A&M hopes to get off their Good Samaritan
binge and play the type of ball they’re capable of. The
Longhorns capitalized on Cadet errors to score seven un
earned runs and take an 8-4 decision on Kyle Field two
weekends ago while The Aggies gave one of two contests to
the Baptists only one strike away from victory.
The Horned Frogs and Texas are currently leading the
SWC with identical, 3-0, records. TCU returns six regulars,
including hard-hitting center-
SECOND-SACKER—Doug (Moon) Mullins who switched
from the pitchers’ mound to the infield in this, his senior
season. Mullins has collected five hits in 23 times to the
plate for a .217 average and has handled 18 chances with
one error—a .957 percentage.

LOIS BETHEA, Notary Public
Braves yesterday as the two Na
tional League contenders battled
to a 2-2 tie in the opening game of
their northward road show.
Bobby Thomson and Johnny Lo
gan smacked home runs off Newk,
who had walloped one of his own
off Ray Crone-a 25-year-old right
hander who dealt the defending
champs only four hits in his nine
innings. A single by Duke Snider,
a walk and Gino Cimoli’s single
scored the other Dodger run.
Newcombe worked the first six
innings with Clem Labine wrap
ping it up. Corky Valentine pitched
the 10th for thp Braves who called
it quits with the Dodgers at Jack
sonville to get started on their
trip to San Antonio for the second
meeting in the eight-game series.
Elsewhere, three fourth
inning home runs gave* the
Washington Senators a 4-3
victory over the Cincinnati
Redlegs; southpaw Harvey
Haddix lined a three-run dou
ble as the Philadelphia Phillies
knocked off the Boston Red
Sox 3-1; rookie Jim Landis
delivered a two-run homer that
helped the Chicago White Sox
beat the New York Yankees
8-4; the Pittsburgh Pirates,
despite just four hits, defeated
Kansas City A’s 2-0; Detroit’s
Tigers scored three in the 10th
to bump the St. Louis Cardi
nals 8-5; Cleveland packed nine
runs into the seventh inning
to bang the New York Giants
13-6, and the Chicago Cubs
bopped the Baltimore Orioles
6-2.
The Senators, held hitless for
3 2-3 innings by Warren Hacker,
finally got the job done on home
runs by Roy Sievers, Bob Lemon
and Clint Courtney, with Whitey
Herzog singling ahead of Court
ney’s blast. The Redlegs got all
their runs in the first, with Wally
Post hitting a two-run homer, off
Evelio Hernandez.
Two singles and a walk set the
Haddix’ big blow against Boston’s
Frank Sullivan in the second in
ning. The little lefty then gave up
three walks and Frank Malzone’s
RBI single in the third before set
tling down again as the Phils
made it 11-1 vs. American League
teams this spring.
Landis’ home run capped a
four-run third for the White
Sox, who had snapped a string
of 21 scoreless innings by
Yankee righthander Tom
Sturdivant in the first frame.
Fairbanks at 3:30 p.m. Friday on
Tiger Field.
Either Alton Arnold or Edgar
Feldman is slated to start on the
mound for Consolidated.
The Tigers boast four wins to
go with three losses at the hands
of AAA ball clubs, scoring 47 runs
on 37 hits in the four game streak.
Arnold, whose won-lost record
of 2-2 is not outstanding, has
pitched 25 innings and recorded
the phenomenal total of 54 strike
outs over that stretch. Unearned
runs have led to his downfall.
Feldman has met the same fate,
posting a 2-1 record, though not
allowing an earned run in his 18
innings pitched.
The Tiger shortstop, John Mar
tinez, leads the club in hitting with
a .368 batting average.
fielder, Carl Warwick, expec
ted to win all-league honors.
Coach Dutch Meyer calls War
wick “. . . a big league pros
pect.” The Froggies turned in a
13-2 record in 1956 and their first
crown since 1933.
Coach Bell’s Aggies stand 1-2 in
league action and 2-5 for the sea
son. Weak at the plate a year ago,
A&M finds their base hits coming
at the right time, but costly errors
are more than offsetting the runs-
batted-in. The Maroon are batting
.231 as a team as compared with
.212 a year ago.
A pair of sophomores, catcher
Gary Herrington and thirdbaseman
Wendell Reed, pace the Aggie bat
ters with .320 percentages. Both
have slapped out eight hits in 25
trips to the plate. Reed has driven
in three runs to take second to Jim
Smotherman’s seven in that depart
ment. Smotherman has nine hits in
32 times at bat for a .281 average.
Sophomore burler Donnie Hullum
owns the best Maroon ERA—post
ing a fine 1.68 mark. Hullum, al
though he has won none and lost
one, has pitched 21 % innings and
given up only four earned runs.
The relief ace has struck out 14.
Galveston’s fine little leftie,
Toby Newton, shows a 1-1 record
with 26 strikeouts in 22 innings.
Newton has a 3.26 ERA and pro
bably will get the nod tomorrow
in Ft. Worth.
