Page 4 THE College Station, Texas BATTALION Thursday, July 12, 1962] fBeau’ Anticipating All-Star Reuni o Roy C. “Beau” Bell, former American League All Star base ball player, and Aggie baseball coach, who now works for the B&U department recently received an invitation to the 25th annual reunion of the 1937 American League All Star Team. Bell, an A&M graduate, class of ’31, was captain of the baseball team his senior year. “That was the first year the Aggies had ever won a baseball conference championship,” said Bell. After graduating, he joined the Texas League, playing outfield and occasionally first base. From the Texas League, “Beau” joined the St. Louis Browns in 1935. He also played for the De troit Tigers and Cleveland In dians. Leading the entire league in base hits in 1937, Bell was named to the American League All Star Team to play in the annual League All Stars Game. The outstanding players in the American League were pitted against the outstand ing players of the National League in this traditional game, which wgs played in New York’s Yankee Stadium. Fellow players in the memora ble ^'ame were s u,c h immortal baseball names as Joe DiMaggio, Loik Gehrig, Bill Dickey, and Diz zy Derm. “It was in this- i^knle that Dizzy received the injury which was to affect his playing so badly,” said Bell. “He was struck by a fast ball and has claimed that his pitch ing has never been the same,” he said. “Beau” Bell was coach of the Aggie baseball team from 1951 to 1958. ( In 1951, the Aggies tied TU for the SWC championship, and in 1955, won it outright with a 20- 7-0 season record.
