Once again, the Aggies are on the carpet for the alleged
violation of another of the many Southwest Conference
rules—this one being the most ridiculous of all—involving
bed sheets.
And once again, our old nemesis is Howard Grubbs, the
executive secretary of Southern Methodist University, who
is pressing the investigation.
The problem is this: the Athletic Department had
planned on providing bed linen for the athlete’s new rooms
in Junction Manor—with uniformity in mind rather than
* luxury. v
Now the question coming out of their decision comes
from an old “understood” ruling, as Grubbs calls it, stating
“the athlete’s aid shall not exceed in the aggregate board,
room, tuition, stated institutional fees and $10.00 per month
for lanudry and incidental expenses.”
According to Grubbs, the athlete’s rooms are allowed
to have bed, chair and other furniture in the room, but not
any of the other “furnishings”.
And so, spring welcomes another complaint from the
Southwest Conference, and it looks like—as before—the
rules will have to be changed again because of Texas A&M.
* Last year it was traveling jackets that caused the mild
furor—A&M had them and nobody else did—so there were
complaints made. And the rules were altered.
To mention another “problem” A&M presented—the
* Aggies once held their pre-season football training at the
A&M Adjunct in Junction, Tex. Of course it wasn’t “illegal,”
but it was questionable, so the rules were changed to prevent
Southwest Conference football teams from leaving the cam
pus for their training.
And even more recently, “somebody” complained about
All-American Charles Krueger being allowed to help recruit
prospective football players. Krueger has been added to the
coaching staff this spring, and he and other former players
have been doing a “bang-up job” in contacting future Aggie
athletes.
I’m quite sure that someone is hollering “sour grapes”
because they don’t have a new athletic dormitory to draw
* their prospective athletes.
Then again, the recruiting program at a rival school
might have been affected by the whirlwind job the Aggie
staff has done in acquiring new gridiron talent this spring.
* The rules might be changed, but if A&M continues to
win as in the past, it won’t really matter too much.
Why, if we win enough, we might buy sheets for EVERY
“underprivileged” school in the Southwest Conference.
Pitcher’s Nightmare
—Battalion Staff Photo
The batted ball furnishes the pitcher with most of his bad
dreams, and with the Aggies batting at a healthy .250 clip,
Dickie Thomas whacks the ball preparing for the SMU
Ponies this weekend. That’s Gary Herrington catching, and
Ed Dudley waiting his turn in the batting cage.
Cinderella Aggie Team Boasts Power,
Pitching And Going Winning Streak
By BOB WEEKLEY
The lean look is fast disappear
ing around the Aggie baseball
camp as the hard luck team of ’57
has turned into the Cinderella
squad of ’58.
The Farmers have been forced to
open their belts a couple of notches
to make room for a fat team bat
ting average of .250 and a record
five consecutive game winning
streak, including two conference
wins.
Catcher Gary Herring tpn has
been the big bat for the Cadets
with a .522 average at the plate.
Six of his twelve hits have been
for extra bases with a homerun
topping the list. The stocky slug
ger has banged out four doubles,
three triples and six singles and
is credited with seven runs batted
in.
Junior College transfer Lloyd
Stone, switched from a catcher to
the left field position, has found
the opponents pitching to his lik
ing and recorded a hefty .471
average in the batting box. The
Wichita Falls junior has collected
one double and triple while bat
ting in five runs.
Clutch-hitter James Smotherman
rounds out the top three in the
batting department with a strong
.357 average. The senior co-cap-
tain from Frisco leads the Ags in
RBI’s with 13. Smotherman has
rapped six doubles and four singles
in 28 times at bat.
Sophomore Ralph Plumlee has
earned his starting role on the
team with a .375 average in con
ference play. The young shortstop
has a total of five hits, one a two-
bagger.
Speedy J. B. Carroll is the team’s
leading t|yef with three stolen
bases to his credit. The sophomore
third sacker has a .200 batting
average and has batted in one run.
First baseman Bill Houchin has
the dubious honor of being the Ag
gies strike-out artist. The young
sophomore has been whiffed four
times, but still has collected five
hits for a .217 average. Two of
the hits have been doubles.
The Aggie pitching staff, called
by The Daily Texan one of the
finest staffs in the conference,
has justified the ’Sips confidence
by winning six games while drop
ping only one.

Newton to throw the only no-hit,
no-run game of the conference
this year against Texas Lutheran
College. The two Aggie hurlers
struck out ten men in the contest.
Newton has been the Cadets’
leading moundsman in the win
column with a 3-1 record. The
slender co-captain has allowed only
nine hits in 18% innings and
given up six earned runs for an
ERA of 2.79. Newton has struck
out 23 players and given 18 bases
on balls.
Hullum has been the Farmers’
stingiest pitcher, letting only two
earned runs go past the plate for
a slender ERA of 0.73. The Bay-
town junior has whiffed 21 men
and given 11 men a free trip to
first base. He is credited with a
2-0 record.
Percy Sanderson, sophomore
pitching sensation, has one win to
his record in 14% innings on the
mound. Ten men have banged hits
off his hurling and four earned runs
crossed the plate for an ERA of
2.79. The ex-freshman ace (has
struck out seven men while walk
ing eight.
The Ags have slipped in the
fielding department, making five
errors in the last two games for a
total of eight, but the outlook has
never been brighter than this year
with a sophomore infield and a
veteran outfield.
Herrington leads the Fanners in
the field with no errors while
handling 59 chances. Fii'st sacker
Houchin is close behind with one
error in 51 chances.
The double play combination of
plumlee to Patterson to Houchin
has accounted for seven double
plays, two more than the Ags made
in 20 games last year.
The Cadets face SMU today and
tomorrow for their second con
ference series of the season.
