    Consolidated Meets
Eagles Friday at 8
By RUSSELL BROWN
Battalion Sports Writer
The battle royal of District 19-
AA presents itself on Tiger Field
this Friday night beginning at 8
as the A&M Consolidated Tigers
and the Hearne Eagles square off
in an all-important conference tilt.
Both clubs opened 19-AA play
last week, the Tigers cracking op
en their lid with a convincing 16-0
success over Caldwell while the
league-leading Eagles were taking
it on the chin from Rockdale 31-6.
Non-district-wise the Tigers won
one and lost five while the Eagles
compiled a 4-2 mark.
The contest will feature foot
ball in all aspects, as the Tigers
use the running game and the
rock-ribbed derense while the
Eagles rely on the aerial and wide-
open type football.
Big gun thus far has been little
150-pound Simon Martinez, a jun
ior quarterback with the knack for
throwing the football. “Golden
Arm,” as he is dubbed, has hurled
his mates to their four victories,
rolling up 178 points in seven tilts.
Also in the Eagle backfield, 170-
pound Larry Coe is the power run
ner from fullback while 160-pound
Howard White and 145-pound
Grady Russell are the scatbacks.
Coach Ken Batson’s line is headed
by 213-pound senior Julio Vargas
at tackle. Vargas was an all-dis
trict end as a sophomore but laid
out the season last year because of
grades.
The Tigers and Eagles have
three opponents in common: Nava-
sota, Crockett, and Madisonville.
The Eagles topped the Rattlers
22-6; the Rattlers bombed the Ti-
JsLivsBZS;
gers 16-0. Cr»ckett edged by the
Eagles 22-12 and ground out a
14-0 win over the Tigers, while
Madisonville fell victim to a 16-14
Tiger win and the Eagles lost to
the Mustangs 6-0.
Coach Ed Logan’s crew will be
at almost full strength for the
contest while soph Ozzie Burke
may see more action at left half.
Burke rambled for 45 yards in
eight tries and tallied a two-point
conversion in the Tigers’ 16-0
Caldwell win, running the halves
with his older brother Cyril.
A starting eleven will see Bob
Adorns and Larry Randolph at
ends; John Litzler and Mark Lu
ther at tackles; George Outlaw and
Bob White at guards; and Charlie
Roeber at center. Condy Pugh
will run the club from quarterback,
the two Burkes or John Pedigo
will be at halfback posts, and
Frank Hagler will be at fullback.
The Tigers remain at home next
weekend for a contest with the
Rockdale Tigers in the Bengals’
homecoming fracas. The Tigers
close out their season on Nov. 11
against the Cameron Yoe.
Can’t Rightfully
Claim Strongest Teams
BATTALION
Thursday, October 20,1960
College Station, Texas
By HAROLD V. RATLIFF
Associated Press Sports Writer
The Southwest Conference can
not rightfully claim to have the
strongest football in the nation,
as its intersectional record and
record in bowl games will cer
tainly indicate otherwise. But it
is attractive to the fans because
there is no league quite so up
setting or uncertain—-or better
balanced.
The balance comes from recruit
ing almost entirely in one area—
the Texas Interscholastic League.
There are so many football
players o fequal ability that one
school is pretty certain of having
just as good and as many pros
pects as the other.
This never was more aptly il
lustrated than during the current
season. The schools now are meet
ing each other in the conference
race and already there’s just one
team without a loss or tie to mar
its record. Baylor is unsullied
but it wouldn’t hazard a prediction
that it will be that way ere an
other week has passed.
Baylor still has A&M, Texas
Christian, Texas, Southern Meth
odist and Rice to play in addition
to Southern California in an inter
sectional game. It hardly seems
possible for Baylor to survive that
array.
Every year there is some team
rated at the bottom that proves
to be as good as the best. This

Good Rebounding
Paces Cincinnati
By The Associated Press
GIN GIN N ATI — Coach Charley
Wolf sums up the “new look"
Cincinnati Royals’ record victory
this way:
“Rebounding did it.”
He referred specifically to the
first half of Wednesday night’s
National Basketball Association
season opener, when the Royals
grabbed 47 rebound's to 25 for the
lies Angeles Lakers, and raced to
a 140-123 victory.

Robertson lived up to expectations
By The Associated Press
The most important schedule of
the season has championship war
fare in virutally every district and
47 undefeated, untied teams put
ting their records on the line in
Texas schoolboy football this
week.
Crucial games dot the card
from the Panhandle to the coast
and from Texarkana to El Paso.
The business of deciding district
champions' takes top interest.

Not only will ttvo 'Sf the ThTe’e
District 3 leaders be clashing but
Borger wil be one of eight unde-
in his pro basketball debut, scor- f e ated, untied teams risking their
ing 21 points. I status.
Waco, one of the state’s top-
rated teams although not unbeat
en, furnishes the acid test to a
Bryan outfit that has yet to meet
defeat. The district 13 champion
ship also might be decided in this
game. Edison and Highlands are
tied with San Antonio Jefferson
for the District 15 lead.
Leaderships in nine districts of
Class AA will be on the line. Crane

season it may be Rice. Anyway,
Bill Morrow of Houston is ready
to predict it, with Rice still having
six games to play. Writes Mor
row:
“In the Houston Post you stated
that Rice surprised itself by play
ing such a close game against
Georgia Tech. For your informa
tion the Owls knew they have a
good team before they ever played
Tech and all you ‘experts’ are go
ing to be the people who are sur
prised if you think Rice doesn’t
have a good team. A team with
a little more luck than Rice has
had for the past two years would
have won that game easily.”
It is indeed refreshing to have
someone willing to get on the line
before the big games. Usually
they wait until Monday to tell you
how the team was going to do last
Saturday—if it won. Second-
guessers are a dime a dozen, sec-
ond-guessers being those people
who tell you how a thing should
have been done after you have
done in wrong.
The best example of second-
guessing and the answer for it is
in the story of Gilbert Bartosh
and his talk with the barber. This
happened a decade ago when Bar
tosh was playing quarterback for
Texas Christian. It seems that
the score was tied and Bartosh
threw a pass trying to get a touch
down to unravel the deadlock. The
p&s was intercepted and Texas
won the game. The following
Monday Bartosh was getting a
haircut. The barber remarked:
‘^Gilbert, I fipn’t think th|t jj&as
very ! smart., .throwing that pasm”
Replijed Bartosh gravely: “Yes, I
j|ues$ it wasn’t very smart but you
know if I had had until Monday
to think about it I probably
1 wouldn’t have thrown it.”
