Jerry Abernathy is about all Rice had to offer the Cadets, but it proved to be more than enough as the Houston hurler took com mand of A&M. He allowed but seven well-spaced hits, one of which was a double by catcher Gary Herrington. However, the picture might not be so dark as would be believed. The chances that the weaker teams in the conference can rise up for an unexpected victory came clear Tuesday as the TCU Frogs posted their first conference victory of the season—over hard-hitting Bay lor.

Main North Gate Bryan College Station “Jockey brand underwear made me Phi Beta Kappa!” “ ‘Amazing scholarship’, said the Dean. ‘Cheating!’ cried my fellow students. But I knew the real reason for my becoming an honor student. My tailored-to-fit Jockey brand briefs were so comfortable that naturally I found it easy to study better and get straight A’s.” “ ‘If your brand is Jockey, you won’t need any ponies’, I tell my friends. It’s true, too. You see. Jockey—and only Jockey brand—uses thirteen separate pieces to provide a perfectly smooth fit. You feel better—and you study better—when you wear com fortable Jockey briefs.” Jockey briefs are the most copied underwear in the world. Be sure you get genuine Jockey brand— they’re tailored to fit. JocAretr brief no a ki rt made only by Cooper’s, Incorporated / Kenosha, Wisconsin time this season, a TCU pitcher was able to go the route. As far as A&M is concerned, however, the big game was played in Austin yesterday. The Ponies were planning on using one of the conference’s top hurlers in Carl Schlemeyer to try to stop the Tex as hitting attack. The Pony pitcher has compiled a 3-1 pitching record this season and has an amazing .24 earned run mark. The Steers planned on using lefthander Bob Sudderth, former ly of Dallas Sunset to gain their sixth consecutive conference vic tory. Sudderth has a 4-1 record and a 2.60 e.r.a. Nevertheless, Texas is not so strong as to be called invincible. The Aggies will get their chance at stopping the Steers this Satur- Nichols Cuts Foot; Out Of Action For At Least 2 Weeks Coach Joe Fagan’s golf team will have to start their games this week without the services of one of their mainstays, Bobby Nichols. Nichols cut his foot while water ' skiing in Temple : over the Easter holidays. Fagan reports 1 that Nichols will definitely be out of the match with Western Illinois to be played here Saturday. The coach also expressed his doubts that his first team starter will play in the first conference game of the season with Arkansas, to be played on the A&M course this Saturday. Nichols hopes to be in action within ten days at the most, and will definitely be ready for the Southwest Conference meet. During Nichols’ absence, Mickey Michella will start in the first slot, followed by A1 Jones and Buck Pruitt. Fourth starter is to be decided in a playoff match between Delver Jones and Hillry Ranson, reports Fagan. The Aggie linksmen will see quite a bit of action next week. They will meet North Texas in Denton Monday and SMU at Dal las Tuesday. Saturday they travel to Lubbock for a contest with Texas Tech. day on Kyle Field in their first game of the three game series. The top three hitters in ths con ference sport tho orapge and white of Texas University in George Myers (.500), Max Alvis (.476), and Woody Woodman (.450). Shortly behind the big three are Jerry Sims of Rice and A. C. Mil ler of Baylor, who bat a .400 and .364 respectively. Lloyd Stone is the Cadets’ lead ing hitter with .352. Strangely enough, a pitcher is the runner-up from the hitting side of the pic ture, as Donnie Hullum sports a .300 average. Toby Newton is the “second winningest” pitcher in the con ference behind George Myers of Texas. Myers has won 3 games and lost none, with an e.r.a. of 0.33. However, the Galveston hurler has yielded 4.50 runs per game in winning two and losing one. In team batting, Texas of course leads the parade with a hefty .306. Baylor is second with a poor .233 mark, followed by A&M’s .220. From the statistics, it is evi dent that the conference is weak in hitting teams. Saturday’s game could well de cide the future for the Cadet nine. Game time is 2 p.m. Campanella Gains Strength In Arms Roy Campanella, Los Angeles Dodger catcher who suffered a broken neck in a January traffic accident, is slowly regaining strength in his arms but is not yet able to pick up an object, a hospital spokesman said Tuesday. Campanella, still paralyzed from his waist down, is rolled over every thi’ee or four hours, the spokes man said. “He can’t roll over by himself yet,” the spokesman said. There has been no bulletin on the catcher’s condition since March 7, but hospital authorities have in dicated that one is planned for later this week. The last report was pessimistic regarding his chances of playing ball again be cause of the slowness of the re laxing of the paralysis. Brown,Dupas Predict KO’s Lightweight champion Joe Brown and flashy contender Ralph Dupas both are predicting a knock out victory in their title fight at Houston next month. The 21-year-old Dupas, a sur prisingly easy winner over wel terweight Ramon Fuentes of Los Angeles in a 10-rounder last night, bristled when told Brown said ho would be “surprised if the fight goes beyond 10 rounds.” Brown fought a three-round ex hibition on the Dupas-Fuentes card and said Dupas lacked enough weapons to take the title. Dupas had a slightly different opinion. “Well, you can tell Brown fo me that I’ll be in there pitchin for a knockout too, and I thin I can do it. I’ll be ready to go th< distance, but I don’t intend to gi 15 rounds if I don’t have to.” Bryan K-C Lanes Host Bryan Meet The Bryan K-C Bowling Lancs will be the host April 19 and 2( to the second annual Bryan-Colleg€ Station Men’s bowling tournament 1 The tournament is an Americar Bowling Congress sanctioned even! and will draw teams from all ABC sanctioned leagues in this area It is expected that the number ol teams entered will exceed the thirty mark.
