Frosh Eleven Boasts
Weight, Speedy Backs
Coach Tom Chandler began work
this week with one of the heftiest
freshman squads in years at A&M,
with 68 athletes reporting for
practice.
Chandler, coach of the 1959
SWC baseball champions at A&M,
will work his aspiring Aggies long
and hard before the Frosh’s open
er with the TCU Wog Oct. 8, here.
Heading the list of prospects
are Quarterback Ronnie Brice of
Andrews, Tackles George Hogan
of Longview and Keith Huggins
of Houston Milby and Halfback
Jon Mason from Las Cruces.
Mason is probably the fastest
man the Aggies have seen in years
and has been clocked in the 100
at 9.6 with wind. Brice is a tail
back on the order of SMU’s Don
Meredith, an excellent runner and
passer.
Hogan was one of the top line
catches in the state, captaining
teams in both the Oil Bowl and
the Texas high school All-State
games. Huggins weighs in at a
hefty 230.
Heading the list of candidates
for left end are Mike Davis and
Bobby Huntington. Right end
prospects are Don Ramsey and
Don Baily.
Battling it out for left tackle
are Huggins and Bill Miller with

Hogan and James Walton strug
gling for the other tackle slot.
Miller is the largest man on the
team tipping the scales at a robust
280 pounds. The smallest tackle
is Walton weighing in at 225.
Left guards are Mickey Mc-
Grew and Stuart Bebee while their
running mates on the other side
of the .line are Jim Harper and
James Phillips. Harper is the
smallest man of. the group with
the other three hitting the 210
mark.
Centers are Michael Houghton
and Jerry Hopkins. Hopkins was
a schoolboy All-American player
at guard.
Brice leads the candidates for
quarterback trailed by Tommy
Janik of Poth, a 6-4 athlete. Full
backs are Sam Byer of Marlin and
Leroy Caffey of Thorndale. Both
boys weigh over 200 pounds, the
largest the Aggies have since the
days of Jack Pardee.
Left halfbacks are Mason and
Fred Deutrich of Bellville and
right half is held down by Ronnie
Ledbetter and Steve Koch.
Experts are booming this group
of 68 freshmen as one of the best
the Farmers have even seen, and
that includes the 1954 Junction
boys. They have speed in the
backfield and bulk in the line, with
more than enough in each position
to give them adequate depth.
There are 31 interior linemen,
20 backs and eight ends, a well
balanced crew that speaks well of
Athletic Director Jim Myers and
his careful recruiting this past
season.
S PORT SLANT
By BOB WEEKLEY
When the Aggies move onto the
playing field Saturday at East
Lansing they’re going to be facing
a larger handicap than that of
playing on an alien field. The dif
ference in this game could be one
of weight.
According to a release put out
by Michigan State their line will
average out at a hefty 210 pounds.
The best the Cadets can muster is
a 189-pound forward wall. That’s
21 pounds per man the Aggies are
going to have to overcome if they
expect to come away from the
game with laurels.
Largest man on the Spartan
team is tackle Palmer Pyle who
tips the scale at a crushing 231.
Smallest man on the line is end
Fred Arbanas who weighs exactly
what the Farmers largest man
weighs, 207.
Tradition will favor Michigan,
but this could be a psychological
sword in the hands of the Aggies.
A&M and Michigan have met twice
with the Spartans coming out on
the winning end both times.
Most experts are picking Michi
gan a solid three touchdown favor
ite over the Ags, but experts are
notorious for under-estimating the
score. This is another point in fa
vor of the Ags. They have noth
ing to lose and everything to win.
It’s games' like this that set the
stage for upsets.
Big 10 football is nothing like
the brand of ball played year in
and year out in the Southwest Con
ference. They Javor the yard at
a time attack and feature lines
with the same heft of a profes
sional team. In the SWC, any
thing goes and the long pass is
the rule rather than the exception.
State will be trying hard to win
this game in order to regain some
of the prestige they lost last yea*r
after posting a dismal 3-5-1 record
under Duffy Daugherty. Inciden
tally, Daugherty was hung in ef
figy several times last season.
It looks like a tough game for
the Aggies Saturday, and a long
ride home after it is over.

A&M Consolidated Tangles Tonight
With Hearne Eagles at Tiger Field
By RUSSELL BROWN
CHS Correspondent
The injury-ridden A&M Consol
idated Tigers take on the unde
feated but tied Hearne Eagles in
a non-district clash tonight in
Tiger Field at 8 p.m.
Coach Ed Logan of the Tigers
announced that he will go with
Bob Adams and John Stark at
ends, Alex Quisenberry and Vic
Clark at tackles, Ben Jackson and
Bob White at guards, and Joel
Mills at center. Condy Pugh will
head the Bengals at quarterback,
Brenner Sayers and John Pedigo
or Cyril Burke will be at the
halves and Jim Wright will be at
fullback. Winner of the “Tough
Tiger” award for outstanding play
against St. Anthony was Mike
Bloom, junior defensive guard.
Hearne, with wins over Caldwell
and Franklin and a tie with Nava-
sota, will go with Thomas Kesner
and Sammy Altimore at ends, Bill
Hartman and Don Mitchell at
tackles, Jim Ellis and Allen Meyer
at guards and Tom Sanders at
center. Simon Martinez or Grady
Russell will run the hall club,
Jerry Sowma and B. D. Weaver
will run from fullback and the
fullback will be George White.
Giddings marks the site of the
final non-district clash for the
Tigers, coming next Friday on the
Buffaloes home field.
FOOTBALL VALUE
MIAMI, Fla. (AP) Dr. Jay F.
W. Pearson, University of Miami
president, believes there is a def
inite place in college for football.
In saluting the sport, Dr. Pear
son says:
“The many values gained from
football far outweigh any evils.
The evils arise only when alumni
and the community demand an
annual national championship.”
