THE AGGIES are now 4-3 on the year following their 4-1 win over Texas Christian at Fort Worth Saturday afternoon. Right hander Rick Schwartz was the winner as he twirled a three- hitter and became the first Ag gie pitcher to go the route this season. Coach Tom Chandler changed his lineup against the Frogs and hopes maybe he may have found the right combination. The weath er thus far has hindered the search for that top nine. If prac tices being rained out weren’t enough, the rained out games were. One bright point is that the Southwest Conference moguls have finally decided to amend the no rescheduling rule and re play four of the rained-out games that had been assumed lost. The If you don't agree that business destroys individuality, maybe it's because you're an individual. There’s certain campus talk that claims individuality is dead in the business world. That big business is a big brother destroy ing initiative. But freedom of thought and action, when backed with reason and conviction’s cour age, will keep and nurture individuality whatever the scene: in the arts, the sciences, and in business. Scoffers to the contrary, the red corpus cles of individuality pay off. No mistake. Encouraging individuality rather than suppressing it is policy in a business like Western Electric—where we make and pro vide things Bell telephone companies need. Because communications are changing fast, these needs are great and diverse. Being involved with a system that helps keep people in touch, lets doctors send car diograms across country for quick analysis, helps transmit news instantly, is demand ing. Demanding of individuals. If your ambition is strong and your abili ties commensurate, you’ll never be truly happy with the status quo. You’ll seek ways to change it and—wonderful feeling!— some of them will work. Could be at Western Electric. Western Electric MANUFACTURING & SUPPLY UNIT OF THE BELL SYSTEM Aggies’ game with Southern Methodist is included in that list. CHANDLER is undecided about his starting pitchers for the an nual Minnesota games. The two- game series will be followed by a doubleheader with Oklahoma State on Saturday and a two- game series with TCU the follow ing weekend (Mar. 29-30). The Aggies will wind up the home- stand with a two-game set with Missouri, April 1 and 2. Four new players were placed in the starting lineup Saturday and they responded with an equal number of hits. The Aggies, who were not hitting, came up with 10 safeties for the game. The lineup produced a new infield of Larry Stelley at first base, Jim Raley at second, Pete Maida at third and Bob Long at shortstop. The outfield has Bob Arnold in left, Dave Elmendorf in center and Boyd Hadaway in right. Joe Staples remained at catcher. SOME OF THE contributions of the new blood was a home run, double and two runs-batted- in from Arnold, two stolen bases and a base hit from Maida and another base hit from Stelley. The Aggies got all their runs in the second inning while the Frogs picked up their one tally by the unearned route. Frog cen- terfielder Eddie Driggers was Schwartz’ thorn as he (Driggers) reached the Aggie pitcher for two of the three hits the Frogs garnered. The win evened both the Ag gies’ and the Frogs’ conference records at 2-2. TCU’s season record is also even at 4-4.
