The Aggies plan a hard work out today with a possible scrim mage session. If the Aggies do scrimmage, it will be A&M’s fifth of the spring drills. A&M went through several phases of agility drills during the first half of Tuesday’s workout and then had fundamental drills for both the offensive and defen sive units.

Bryan bank er Travis Bryan shot 72, Aggie golf coach Henry Ranson 77, Bryan Municipal Course pro Fred Marberry 77, football coach Gene Stallings 88 and Jack Crichton of Dallas, tourney chairman 89. Stallings put the team through what the players call the “meat grinder” drill. This drill consists of three offensive players chal lenging three defensive men. The offensive team tries to get a first down in three plays. If they get the first down, they win the drill, but if the defense stops them then the defense wins. The Aggies went through two of this drill Tuesday. Once with the Maroon unit, which is consid ered the number one team. The second time was after the Maroon team had been dismissed. “I wanted to give the rest of the boys a chance to prove them selves, that is why I had them go through a drill of their own,” Stallings explained about the sec ond “mept grinder” drill.
