MS.. * tyockeij ® BRAND ^ By RUSSELL BROWN A&M Consolidated’s Tigers and the Tigers from Rockdale lock horns in a crucial District 19-AA football contest Friday night in College Station as the league-lead ing Consolidated bunch hopes to run its win streak to three over the second place Rockdale eleven. The tilt is the homecoming con test for the Bengals and is tabbed as the deciding fracas in the five- team league, the winfter probably becoming loop champion. Coach Ed Logan’s Tigers have won two in a row in 19-AA play scoring a 16-0 win over Caldwell and a 45-0 trouncing over the Hearne Eagles, while running up a 3-5 season record. The Rockdale Bengals on the other hand have a 3-4 season count including a 31-6 win over Hearne. Both clubs have faced rough opposition; Elgin, Taylor, and Bellville for Rockdale and Huntsville, St. Anthony’s, and Crockett for the Tigers. Coach Raymond Burchfield’s Ti gers took last week off after the Hearne ball game, sharpening their claws for Friday’s battle. The Tigers have three top backs in the personages of Donnie and Ronnie Laurence, 150 pound whiz zes at quarterback and right half, and Dan Yezak, the Bengals’ pow er runner at 160 from fullback. Tackle is also a strong positiop for Coach Burchfield, boasting 211 pound Gilbert White and 196 pound Collier Berry. Only one man remains on the doubtful list for the Tigers, as 198 pound defensive middle guard Vic Clark has been hobbled by a knee T-shirts campus character— or just Texas Aggie .... in your relentless search for knowledge, you have learned two things: •A. tyoCkGIf T-shirts are best 2. you can get them at CUT].

RATLIFF Associated Press Sports Editor It’s a wonder coaches don’t ab solutely forbid anybody doing a story for a magazine or making a picture of the team for a like pub lication. The history of sport is maiked by brief passages that indicate the coach and/or team can look upon the magazine article as the kiss of death. Last year a magazine had a story on Bill Meek, the Southern Methodist coach. This season his team has lost five straight games and scored only two touchdowns in the process. The other day there was an ar ticle on Frank Broyles, coach of Arkansas, built around the diffi culty Arkansas might encounter in keeping the brilliant young men tor. Well, Broyles’ team has lost two games and may drop a few more. Arkansas tied for the South west Conference championship last year and was victorious in the Gator Bowl. Back in 1941 when Texas had what is still considered the great est team in Southwest Conference history, the Longhorns were pic tured on a magazine cover. They were tied by Baylor and beaten by Texas Christian—and they not on ly failed to win the championship but missed out on the Rose Bowl. To this day, no one has quite understood how that great team ever was tied by a Baylor outfit that was beaten 48-0 by Texas A&M and licked by a Texas Chris tian team that had fallen to Texas A&M and Fordham. Texas beat A&M 23-0. About the same time Amarillo’s Golden Sandies got into a maga zine. The team had a great win ning streak broken and failed to win the chamiponship. And also in 1941 Masonic Home, the little Fort Worth school that won so much fame a quarter of a century ago by downing the migh- ties of Texas schoolboy football with only a couple of substitutes, was written up in a magazine. That year the Masons were found ineligible and lost a chance at the State Championship. They had beaten Wichita Falls, the eventual state champion, in a practice game and were undefeated when de prived of the district title. The Masonic Home teams of that era were coached by Rusty Rus sell. The story is told that one year Rusty had only one substi tute. So the boy worked hard to learn every assignment on the team. But he never was used and somebody asked Russell why. “He’s too valuable; we can’t take a chance of his getting hurt,” Rus sell was supposed to have an swered. It was things like that that got the Masons written up in the magazine. While it is unbelievable to think that a magazine story can wreck a team or coach, since this is in the same category as superstition, the fact remains that few teams or coaches ever had much success after they had appeared in such a publication.
