Iks Pact With Baltimore
nd a
itil lO,'
ated oi&M’s baseball future took a
Llano tific beating at 3 a.m. Saturday
of appn All-Southwest Conference
tstop David Johnson inked a
the ajessional contract with the Bal-
eshnien ,r e Orioles of the American
enro|? u e.
urse iii'hnson, one of the standouts in
ndents sector of the country as a
i n gfjiomore this season, signed im-
their lately after the completion of
spring semester.
__ arlier in the week the Associ-
Press reported that the bas-
I 'all-baseball player had signed
|0 a “modest bonus.” A&M base-
coach Tom Chandler later an-
iced that the salary was $25,-
on scholarship. And that there
should be a ruling in the NCAA
against the signing of college ath
letes off the campus.
Chandler went on to say that
Johnson may have led the Aggies
to a national collegiate champion
ship next season, but now he’s
gone.
Johnson, the rangy shortstop,
was a near unanimous choice to
this spring's All-SWC lineup after
leading the Aggies to second place
in league standings.
During Johnson’s first varsity
season, he registered a .288 bat
ting average while slugging three
home runs, three doubles and 12
singles for 27 total bases. Over
the entire year he hit .309.
He also starred in the field and
completed the conference slate of
games with, a .859 fielding aver
age.
The versatile star, while playing
exclusively shortstop this past sea
son, can also play second and
third base.
[rv
he 19-year-old, 175-pounder,

Broyles Wants II Grid Games
By HAROLD V. RATLIFF
Associated Press Sports Writer
Coach Frank Broyles of Arkan
sas advocates an 11-game foot
ball season and the schools that
win enough to get the fans out
will agree with him.
That actually would mean a 12-
game season for the teams that
win a lot because they get the
bowl spots.
It’s nothing new but it has been
some time since there were sea
sons like that. The NCAA clamped
down and set a limit of 10. It is
doubtful that the NCAA will heed
the request for a return to the 11-
game situation because it is con
cerned with charges of overem
phasis. That was the reason the
season was limited in the first
place.
However, it would appear that
the football coaches have a legiti
mate request. Football season
lasts only 2 1 /£ months—11 weeks.
There is no reason why a game
shouldn’t be played every week
and there is no need for each
school having to take off one week
per season.
Baseball extends for 11 weeks
and the schools play two or three
games every week. Basketball
runs 14 weeks and the schools
usually play about two games per
week. Track gets in 11 weeks
with a meet or two every week.
Why should they make an excep
tion of football, the sport that pi - o-
vides most of the revenue for op
erating the athletic departments.
Of course, a school that loses
most of its games wouldn’t care
about adding a game. Say Hardin-
Simmons, which hasn’t won one
in two years, or Southern Method
ist, which is doing well to win two.
Adding a game would just mean
losing more money.
Back in the thirties there were
12-game seasons in the Southwest
Conference. In 1935 Southern
Methodist and Texas Christian
each played 12 in the regular sea
son. SMU also played in the Rose
Bowl and Texas Christian in the
Sugar Bowl.
Texas A&M had a 12-game sea
son in 1936. Rice had them in
1930 and 1936. Southern Method
ist had four, Texas Christian five,
Texas Tech one.
Texas Tech played as many as
11 games until 1954.
Baylor had an 11-game season
in 1922 that it lived to regret.
Trouble was that one of its games
was an affair between the second
teanf and Phillips University.
Baylor had a mixup in its sched
ule that season, finding that it had
two games in a single week, one
with Arkansas and the other with
Phillips. Arkansas was a confer
ence game and Phillips wouldn’t
let Baylor out of the contract so
both had to be played.
Ted Lyons, who was noted for
his baseball (he went from the
campus to the big leagues) was
put in charge of the second team
and told to play Phillips. The
Baylor first team beat Arkansas
61-13 but Lyon’s team wasn’t as
fortunate—it took a 47-0 drub
bing.

In a moment, the organist wiU
strike a chord. There will be a sudden
hush in the church, then the strains
of the wedding march will peal forth
and she will take her father’s arm
and start up the aisle, her measured,
steps symbolic of the very real hesi
tation she will be feeling.
She would not be human if she
did not hesitate. These steps she is
about to take are the most important
steps of her life. She is poised on
the threshold of another existence in
which the pronoun she uses will be
“We” and not “I.” Soon she will
learn to think of another before she
thinks of herself. Presently, she will
come to know fully the meaning of
the word “share.”
As she moves forward, she falters
for just a second. Then her step be
comes sure, her lips curve in a smile.
The church through which she walks
is dear and beloved to her—and so
is the man who stands waiting for
her beside the altar. Her marriage,
blessed by faith, is beginning where
all marriages should begin—in the
Church.
THE CHURCH FOR ALL . . .
ALL F9R THE CHURCH
! The Church Is the greatest factor
I on earth for the building of char
acter and good citizenship. It is 3
storehouse of spiritual values. With
out a strong Church, neither de
mocracy nor civilization can sur
vive. There are 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 com
munity and nation. (4) For the
sake of the Church itself, whicl*
needs his moral and material sup
port. Plan to go to church regu- ^
