Never smears, never smudges —be cause Corrasahle’slike-magic surface... erases without a trace! (A flick of the wrist and a pencil eraser puts things right!) This fine quality bond paper gives a handsome appearance to all your work. It’s a perfect crime not to use it! By ROBERT WEEKLEY The Texas Aggie baseball team, led by all-SWC third- baseman Wendell Reed and catcher Gary Herrington, open baseball practice Feb. 15 under veteran coach Beau Bell. Bell begins his 8th season at A&M with a potentially good pitching staff, nine returning lettermen and a sophomore infield. James Smotherman, senior letterman from Frisco, looms as the team’s big bat from his position as outfielder and co captain. Last year as a junior Smotherman led the conference in three categories; hits with 18, total bases of 33 and tied for the lead in triples with 2. He batted .300 in league play, hit ■♦■two grand slammers and was tied for second in doubles with five. Close behind the tall out fielder will be all-SWC Reed. In last years’ competition, the hard-hitting third sacker posted a .308 butting average, collecting five doubles in 16 hits. Herrington, a 5-11 junior from Baytown, stands tall in his squatt ing position of catcher. The all- SWC player made only one miscue on the diamond last year as a sophomox-e for a fielding avei’age of .991. He battad well above the .300 mark until the last three games when he dropped to a respectful .264. Last season saw the Cadets wind up with a 4-10 recoi’d and pos session of last place. This year the prospects look brighter with the Farmers in the role of dark horse, and that horse looks like he might be another Swaps. Bell feels that the Cadet pitching staff will be a sound one if left hander Toby Newton rounds into the kind of form that made him an all-confei-ence huider as a sophomore two years ago. In the bull pen waiting to lend able assistance to Newton wlU be two lettermen pitchers, Lefty “Bo” Paradowski and x-ighthander Don nie Hullum. Bell expects strong mound help also fx-om sophomore Percy Sanderson of Nederland, the leading Fish huider a year ago, and junior college transfer Marvin Thompson. Returning lettermen on the team are Reed, Heridngton, Smothei’man, Wayne Balke, Wayne Schaper, Dickie Thomas, Newton, Hullum and Paradowski. Reed will leave third base to be given a try in the outfield this spring, Bell announced. That means that the starting outfield should be composed of Smother man, Reed and Thomas, but J. B. Carroll and Bill Clifford, up from the Fish team are expected to make a strong bid for those posi tions. Herrington has the inside track for the catching spot although an all - conference junior college (See Baseball, Page 5) Erasable Corrasable is available in all the weights you might require—from onionskin to heavy bond.
