Irwin won the SWC shot put in 1933 and
1934 and the discus in 1934. He was the first man
south of the Mason-Dixon line to throw the shot
more than 50 feet, and his SWC record of 502%
stood until broken by A&M’s Darrow Hooper in
1951. He was chosen the most valuable track
man in 1934 and was on the All-America honor
roll in shot and discus. Following his Army ser
vice in WWI as a major, Irwin worked for the
Veterans Administration in Lubbock until his
retirement in 1967. He is now working for the
Texas Rehabilitation Commission in Austin.

Area high school football news
By TONY GALLUCCI
Sports Editor
Well y’all have heard by now that
the Aggies are gonna be pretty
tough this year and you might’ve
been picking grapes when the vine
told you that Bryan High is the
schoolboy pick this year. So what
more could you ask for? How about
an equally tough 3A high school in
the same area.
The A&M Consolidated Tigers
apparently felt they weren’t about
to be left out of the local sports scene
and romped a favored Wharton
team by a score of 18-0 Friday night
in College Station.
Sporting a trio of backfield bos
ses, Dean Spannagel, Reggie Carr
and Brad Davis, the Tigers churned
out 140 yards to half that by Whar
ton and added another 33 yards in
the air to Wharton’s 40. Significant
was Consol’s ability to push the vis
itors at will down the field piling up
13 first downs to Whartons three.
The opening game jitters showed
as Wharton lost 115 yards on 13
penalties, mostly offsides.
The unheralded Carr was the
spark for the Tigers that evening
with 55 yards but had a beautiful
59-yard scamper called back for
clipping across-field.
The Consol line of Steve Boat
wright, Ashraf Ayoub, Richard Cox,
Kenny Davidson, Hamp Keahy and
Paul Gardner did a superb job. So
did the band.
The shutout was almost snuffed
hut a 45 yard Wharton pass play
died at the seven yard line as time
ran out.

NEW YORK — When the New
York Yankees signed Catfish
Hunter for $3.75 million last New
Year’s Eve, they had visions of win
ning the American League East
pennant.
After all, Hunter had been the
most consistent pitcher in the
league in recent years.
Those dreams now have turned
into ashes, but it’s not the fault of
the ace right-hander. He has held
up his end of the deal.
After a shaky start, in which he
lost his first three decisions of the
1975 season. Hunter currently owns
a 20-13 record — the fifth consecu
tive year in which he has won at
least 20 games — a sparkling 2.60
earned run average, a career high
seven shutouts and 27 complete
games — the most by a Yankees
pitcher in 54 years — in 35 starts.
Billy Martin, the new Yankees
manager, is impressed by those
numbers and by Hunter. “I’m a
great manager when he pitches,’’
says Martin.
“People don’t give him enough
credit for being smart,” adds the
manager. “He’s got great stuff and
he knows where to put the ball. He
is the only pitcher who can pitch
with control and velocity. Other
pitchers have to let up to have that
kind of control.
Slugging Reggie Jackson, Hunt
er’s former teammate at Oakland,
also is impressed. “The Cat is the
best,” observes Jackson. “He likes
to beat us because of who we are.
Hunter has beaten the A s four
straight times this season."
Hunter admits that his latest vic
tory, a 2-0, six-hitter over Baltimore
on Sunday, was something special.
It enabled him to become only
the third pitcher in the 75-year his
tory of the American League to win
20 or more games in five consecu

“I’ve wanted to get up there with
the greats all my life, says the soft-
spoken Hunter. “It’s nice to be in
company like that. I just hope 1 can
keep it up.
“It feels great,” he continues,
“but I owe it to the teams behind
me. To Oakland for the first four
seasons and to the Yankees this
year. A pitcher is only as good as his
team."
The Tigers will play in Crock
this weekend against a consuM 1
