This will be the first meeting of the two teams in the history of both schools, and the Farmers are odds-on favorites to send the Red skins packing back to their lodges minus their scalps and wampum. . Midwestern has some big medi cine they can throw up in efforts to block the Aggies, with a team that averages out at a towering 6-4, with their top scorer of the past season returning to put fear in the white man’s breast.

You'll find the whole quote in "The Mourning Bride", Act I, Sc. 1: "Music hath charms to soothe the savqge breast. To soften rocks, or bend a knotted oak.” "RHYME OR REASON” Edmund Spenser, 16th Century poet, expected a pension. He didn't get it. So he wrote this rhyme; "/ was promised on a time/To have reason for my rhyme;/From that time unto this season,/ l received nor rhyme nor reason.’’ * * * dOCk®8f Underwear BRAND Of all the kinds of underwear, only Jockey brand is espe cially tailored to feel better because it fits better.

Cash is also a veteran of armed forces ball, and made the All- Armed Forces second team. Kelly Chapman, the spectacular Kentuckian with the unorthodox jump shots, is slated for the first starting roll of the season as a replacement for Don Stanley. Chapman is the leading scorer on the A&M team with a 15 point per game average. Chapman has been hindered by a hurt hand. Don Stanley has been slow in rounding into form this season, due to a operation that kept him off the practice courts for the first three weeks of the basketball year. Representing the Stanley’s in the starting lineup will be brother Pat, who won fame earlier in the week by holding Houston’s Gary Phillips to a ineager six points, while collecting only two fouls along the way. Wayne Lawrence, Carroll Brous sard and Wayne Annett round out the probable Aggie starters, while Wilmer Cox and Elliot Craig are set for their alternating turns with the starting five. The A&M Fish will not play be fore the varsity, but are slated for action again Thursday night when they meet Kilgore in Kilgore.
