Dallas Golf Meet Won’t Give Up
DALLAS, UP)_-The Dallas Wo
men’s Open Golf Tournament,
which ended here Monday with
Wiffi Smith of St. Clair, Mich.,
winning first place, may lose
money but that won’t prevent it
from being held again next year.
Dr. Charles Yates, tournament
chairman, said flatly that the
tournament, harassed by bad
weather both years of its exist
ence, would be carried on. “We
are not giving up.” he declared.
1 his tournament has a terrific
potential as a fund raiser for the
Dallas Council for the Deaf.”
The tournament had only one
good day weatherwise.
Officials said they figured they
would be doing well to break even
financially.

By JIM CARRELL
The Aggie baseball squad con
tinues to hit in a manner unac
customed to teams of previous
years but find themselves lagging-
behind in those assets which were
once the marks of A&M ball cubs.
Going into a series with the
Brooke Army Medics at San An
tonio Thursday and Friday, the
Aggies find themselves batting
.245 in 11 games and boasting a
conference average of .248, falling
from their league leading percent
age of .267 a week ago.
These percentages at the plate
compare with a year ago when the
Aggies finished the season with a
.212 average and conference with a
meager .191.
However the performance of
Coach Beau Bell’s 1956 club was
better at season’s end than the re
cord that might be predicted for
this year’s club.
This season the Aggies stand on
a 2-9 record and a SWC mark of
1-6 where last year the season
won-loss total was 10-13 and in
conference 5-9. If this year’s team,
with higher-grade material, is to
improve on the record of a year
ago, the standard of play must im
prove . . . and hustle, an import
ant factor in winning, must be
acquired somewhere along the way.
Maybe it’s too late now.
Then again, perhaps experience
is the answer. There is an attitude
of “wait until next year” among
the players, but for a team that
can’t win this year, what is there
in their performance that makes
them think they’ll be any better.
Sophomoric play has been the
mark of this year’s club and those
assets which made a conference
champion in 1955 and a better re
cord ball cub in 1956 have been
noticeably absent.
Outfielders have missed fly balls,
infielders have been caught out of
position, the pivot man has been
slow on his throws to first for the
double play, wild throws and bone-
head plays have been plentiful, and
most of them when they hurt most.
A current trend in sports is to
place the blame on the coach but
errors are made by ballplayers and
not even the best manager can keep
a batter from choking when the
clutch hit is needed.
Pitching was supposed to carry
this year’s club but the perform
ance of the mound staff has been
spotty and unearned runs have
come frequently enough to discour
age even the best of pitchers.
Southpaw Toby Newton has the
best record, winning one and los
ing three. He has pitched 32-%
innings, giving up 11 earned runs
of 25 scored against him, issuing
25 walks and striking out 29. His
ERA is 2.93, third best on the club.
Captain Dick Munday’s brilliant
nine-inning stint against SMU was
only the second complete game by
an Aggie hurler this year and
certainly was the most impressive.
