Championship Fights Slated During Weekend for SWC By HAROLD V. RATLIFF Associated Press Sports Writer The Southwest Conference moves into the thick of the cham pionship right this week with two of the top contenders—Texas Christian and Arkansas—in a showdown at Fort Worth. The Horned Frogs and Razor- backs, who tied with Texas for the title last season, play a game of deep significance Saturday night. Texas, the pre-season favorite, makes its start in the conference race against upstart Texas Tech, the team that’s playing for the title for the first time. The Longhorns and Red Raiders get together at Austin Saturday jnight and Tech faces an early sea son dilemma—it must win to stay in contention. Tech opened the conference race last week with a 14-14 tie against Texas A&M and a defeat added to the dead lock would just about eliminate the Raiders. The schedule is a trifle short this week with only five games but it is quite important, both domestically as well is intersec- tjonally. Rice, which surprised itself with a great though losing game against mighty Georgia Tech, hosts Tulane. Baylor, a well rated contender, takes on Louisi ana State at Baton Rouge. These are highly important in tersectional games and the con ference needs victories in both to go ahead for the season. The league teams have won five and lost six in warfare with outsiders so far. A&M gets what looks like a breather when it plays Trinity University at San Antonio. The Inter-Gass Struggles Take High School Grid Limelight. By The Associated Press Highland Park plays Fort Worth Arlington Heights, Kilgore meets Huntsville and there are numerous inter-class struggles this week to highlight the Texas schoolboy foot ball campaign. No Game Crucial Almost a fourth of the state’s 96 district will have games count ing in the standings but none are of crucial nature. Highland Park and Arlington Heights are undefeated, untied teams of Class AAAA and their meeting is the only one matching teams with that status in the divi sion. Big Spring and Temple will be stepping down to take on danger ous foes of Class AAA in more battles of the unbeaten, untied. Big Spring meets Sweetwater, one of the top-rated teams of AAA, while Temple plays a good Brownwood team. In still another AAAA-AAA clash, Bryan engages Conroe, with the loser to fall out of the perfect record class. No. 1 Probable Winner Baytown, the No. 1 team of AAAA, plays Texas City with lit tle prospect of being upset. Kilgore and Huntsville are un beaten, untied powers . of Class AAA; in. fact, Kilgore is rated No. 1. This game will have great sig nificance.

Olney, the top-rated team of AA, plays Iowa Park. Stinnett, ranked No. 1 in Class A, is idle. Aggies are such strong favorites no odds were posted. Southern Methodist, licking its wounds from two straight shut outs—20-0 to Missouri and 24-0 to Ohio State—takes the week off. Texas Christian surprisingly is a 1-point favorite over Arkansas although the Razorbacks have won two games against no losses and looked fearsome indeed last week in a 48-7 conquest of Tulsa. Texas* Christian rallied from an opening defeat by Kansas to whale Southern Calimornia and make the conference look much better along the intersectional front. But it will be a bitter battle when the old gridiron enemies tangle and the Arkansas speed might be too much for the mas sive, lumbering Horned Frogs. Texas is a 13-point choice over Texas Tech and on the basis of material would appear to justify the rating. While the Longhorns have fewer veterans than Tech the quality may be superior. Tech boasts the best offense in the league but Texas has what may be just the type offense—all the way boys—to outscore the air- minded Red Raiders. Rice and Baylor are favored to win their intersectional jousts— Rice by three points, Baylor by one. Rice meets a good team in Tu lane. The Greenies are unbeaten although tied 6-6 by Alabama after defeating California 7-3. THE BATTALION SPORTS Hogs Face Jinx Against Froggies Time was when a trip to Waco or Houston used to mean almost certain defeat for a Razorback football team. The Porkers had been visiting those two cities for games with Baylor and Rice with out success since their series started. The decade of the ’50’s ended that drouth. But a new jinx has set in—and Arkansas faces it again next week in jour neying to Fort Worth* to meet the TCU Homed Frogs. The Razorbacks have defeated TCU at Amon Carter Stadium only once since John Barnhill’s single wing team of 1948. That came with Bowden Wyatt’s cham pionship single wing squad of ’54. The Arkansas record at Fort Worth is the poorest for the Ra zorbacks against any other SWC team in the 1950’s. The 1-4 mark stands against a 2-3 with every other league rival in Texas for the 10-year period. The 1954 win over TCU was desperate. Arkansas had gone five full years without a victory on Texas soil when the Porkers turned the tide, 20-13. The game ignited a Cinderella drive for the title. It must be said that the five-year losing streak (1949- 1953) accounts for the weak Ra zorback record against SWC teams on the road. Since that TCU win of 1948 the Razorbacks have won 11 and lost seven on Texas soil. And—breaking the Waco-Houston jinx has come in this improved showing. Past, Power May Win for New York NEW YORK—Dale Long, pres- ertt Yankee and former Pirate, is convinced New York will win the World Series because of its power and its past.

The team will be led by John Harrington, three-time All-Amer ican in high school and once All- American at A&M, and sophomore Bill Baker, HS All-American. Harrington, who specializes in the backstroke, is from College Sta tion while Baker’s favorite is the freestyle, and he is from Houston. Coach Adamson said, “These two boys will carry the load for us this season.” The returning dettermen on the varsity squad include Oscar Cor don, breaststroker from Guate mala; John McKinney, freestyler from Houston; James CoVan, but terfly artist from College Station; Ronnie Reitz, freestyler from Pittsburg; and Charlie Teas, diver from Houston. Returning squadmen who are expected to help the team this season include diver Bill Pechacek, breaststroker Robert Timme, backstroker Bill Crenshaw and butterflyer Mark Powe. Five men will be lost to the team due to graduation this sea son. Of these five, three were lettermen. Fish Have Promise Numeral winners on the Fish team last year that have shown promise are freCstylers Bill Ba ker of Houston, Robert Hipps of Houston and Tom Kennedy of Houston. These boys will “strengthen the freestyle a good bit,” Adamson added. In the breaststroke division, Charlie Seagraves of Houston and Regelio Nunez of Cuba will be helpful. Other frees|ylers coming up include Mike Thurman of Bay- town, Keg Watts of San Antonio and Mike Leach of Houston. Diving Picture Bright The diving picture will he brightened by Edckson Berg of Alexandria, Va., and Clay Eissler of Beeville. Also George Mulano- vish, a transfer from Peru, may help in the freestyle. As far as the team goes, Adam son said, “We will be stronger than last year especially in the sprints, but we are weak in the distance and butterfly races.” Adamson urged all Corps mem bers to try out for the Fish team. In the past, many Corps men have lettered in swimming. FREE!

Are you availing yourself of this blessed privilege, and are you attending your church regularly? As you receive this Sacrament in your church, your life is linked to the lives of Christians everywhere. And you and they are united in a common communion with God! Copyright I960, Keitttr Adv. Sm,irr, StraibuTg, Vj. THE CHURCH FOR ALL . . . ALL FOR THE CHURCH The Church is ihe grealest 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 civilization can survive. There arc four sound reasons why every person should attend services regularly and support the Church. They are: (I) 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.
