Three Athletic Teams Slated
For Action at Consolidated
By RUSSELL BROWN
CHS Correspondent
The A&M Consolidated Tigers
seek to make it two in a row Fri
day on Bronco Field when the
battling Bengals tackle the Bren-
ham Cubs at 4.
Coach Edsel Jones’ boys came
through with a 7-2 opening day
win over the Cub’s 10-AAA mates,
the Huntsville Hornets, in the
opener. Vic Clark and Johnny
Williams pitched three-hit ball for
ilhe win.
The Tigers hope to break the
Cub jinx tomorrow as the Bruins
have dominated the A&M-Bren-
ham series for the last few years.
Last year the Cubs were respon
sible for two of the Bengals’ six
defeats.
Coach Jones is undecided about
the starting nine but Williams
Houston May Enter
Continental Loop
HOUSTON, (A 5 )—Sparks of hope
for renewal of talks between
Houston’s feuding baseball fac
tions glowed today from the ashes
of break-down merger discussions.
They are trying to get together
for a Houston entry in the Conti
nental League.
A Houston newspaper said a
good guess was that the two
groups would resume talks and
join forces within a matter of
Weeks. And a stockholder for the
American Assn. Houston Buffs
Which broke off a merger move,
said he would try to pace the way.
“I speak now as an individual
stockholder and only for myself,”
said Buff stockholder Ben Wood-
son, president of an insurance
company. “In that capacity, I
don’t think the situation is hope
less.”
Last week the Buffs withdrew
an offer to merge with the Hous
ton Sports Assn., Continental own
ers, after announcing that an,
agreement had been reached in
pi’inciple. They said a deadline
passed without formal acceptance
by the HSA.
The latter group countered that
no deadline was stopulated.
The Houston Post said Woodson
may be the man to bring peace
between the two factions.
“The most educated guess is
that a meeting between leaders of
the two groups will be arranged
within a week. An amicable solu
tion to the problem should be
reached shortly thereafter,” the
Post said.

Tennis
The Tiger tennis team goes to
Rosenburg this weekend for the
Rosenburg Jaycee Invitational

Coach Horace Schaffer’s charges
split a dual meet Wednesday in
Hempstead as the Bengals copped
both the singles matches while
Hempstead took both doubles
matches.
Tiger soph Jody Rush won his
match, played under pro rules,
and Pam Sperry blanked her op
ponent 10-0. Bob Adams and Joe
Olian lost their doubles match
by a 4-10 margin while Anne Rud
der and Linda Chalk were down
ed by the same count.
Earlier in the month Rush and
Miss Sperry advanced as far as
the quarter-finals in the senior
division of the - Crockett Invita
tional Tourney while Claire El
kins went to the finals in the jun
ior bracket.
Tuesday finds the Maroon and
White at home against Hempstead
in a return match.
Golf
The golfers hit their stride
against Bryan Wednesday when
they picked off a grand-slam vic
tory over the hapless Broncos.
The District 21-AA champs,
paced by 21-AA medalist Jim
Baldauf, captured all four points
in individual play and then com
pleted the sweep in team match
play.
Baldauf downed Jack Ashcraft
4-up, Condy Pugh bested Billy
Bob Lane 1-up, Billy Berry edged
out Jim Crutchfield 8-up and
Charlie Roeber defeated David
Gregg 3-up.

of their games except a return

them a little edge over SMU in
games played so far. The Ponies

The Golden Time
When Mom and I got married, golden wed
dings seemed just as remote to us as they prob
ably do to you. Matter of fact, folks celebrating
them seemed like museum pieces!
Now here we are, posing for our fiftieth anni
versary picture! Funny part of it is that we don’t
feel a bit like “old folks!”
Still, a couple can’t be married for half a
century without putting in a lot of living. Mom
and I have. There were times when we were so
happy we thought we’d burst . . . other times
when it didn’t seem as if we could find the
strength to keep going another minute.
Through it all, we’ve had our church. It’s
hard to put into words how important that’s been.
Maybe you’ll get an idea when I tell you this.
When Mom asked me what I’d like to do to cele
brate our anniversary, I said, “First of all, let’s
go to Church. I want to say a little prayer of
thanks.”
Mom smiled at me. “So do I,” she told me.

THE CHURCH FOR ALL . . .
ALL FOR THE CHURCH
The Church is the greatest factor on
earth for the building of character and
good citizenship. It is a storehouse of
spiritual values. Without a strong
Church, neither democracy nor civiliza
tion can survive. There ate four sound
reasons why every person should at
tend services regularly and support the
Church. They are: (1J For his own sake.
(2) For his children's sake. (3) For the
sake of his community and nation. (4)
For the sake of the Church itself, which
needs his moral and material support.
Plan to go to church regularly and read
your Bible daily.
