and Saturday Tarleton State en-

The San Angelo-A SC game will
pit the two leading passing teams
of the conferennce against each
other. Despite the lowly standing
of the Blue Riders, the Arlington
eleven has two of the leading pass-
era of the league in Joe Simpson
and Billy Handock. Between them
they completed 13 of 29 passes for
149 yards last week as the Blue
Riders were bowing to Schreiner,

been with out the services of Mar-

ing halfback. Brown, who has been
out with a bruised hip, will be
ready for service against Schreiner

the Plowboy attack.

New York, Nov. 1, lift—Fresco
Thompson, who has been director
of thk Brooklyn Dodgers’ far-flung
. farm system, will succeed his old
Aas for the Rams. San Angelo’s chief, Branch Rickey, as the
66-13 victors over fisco Junior Col-
lege last week .has a literal one
man aerial circus in Pitching Bob-
by datterbuck, who has completed
62 at 114 passes for a magnificent
total ot 767 yard*.
The Ram* will be favored to win
their first league game over Arl-
ingtno, but the Blue Rider* are
priming themselves for a super
effort for their last home game
of the season.
The Saturday clash between Tar
leton State and Schreiner should
he one of the outstanding junior
college contests of the season.
Matching the two leading teams
of the league, the game should
be characterized by excellent run-
ning on both side*. The Mountain-
ters, now pacing the league both
in season and conference stand-
ings, Can win a shot at the confer-
I lodgers' general manager, a high
Brooklyn official said today.
But Thompson won’t have the
sweeping powers enjoyed by “Ma-
hatma” Rickey.
Instead, the source said, the
powers and duties will be split up
among several men with new
President Walter O’Malley keep-
ing the reins of real power in a
tight grasp. Ranking right under*'
neath Thompson in the new setup
would be E. J. (Buzz) Bavasi, now
general manager of the Dodgers’
Montreal farm team.
That Thompson would be the
new head man has been generally
predicted since Rickey resigned
after selling his quarter-share in
the team. A former Philadelphia
Phillies pitcher, the silver-haired
Thompson has vast experience on
all baseball levels as player, coach,
scout, manager and executive.

Baylor's Beer* faced a grim
warning today that Texas Chria-
tian will try to beat thorn 100 to
0 Saturday as Southwest Confer-
ence teams put in their final hard
practice licks for week-end frays.
Veteran Baylor scout Jim Crow
passed along the news to the
Bears, saying:
“Dutch Meyer will beat ua 100
to 0 if he can. Meyer is after
Baylor this year, gpd any team he
lays for is in far trouble.*'
After receiving the warding, the
Bruins worked against the offen-
sive patterns expected to be used
by TCU Saturday.
Defensive pracitce also high-
lighted practice at other South-
west Conference schools.
At Fort Worth, the Frogs work-
ed on measures to handeguoff Lar-
ry Isbell, Baylor passing ace.
Coach Meyer reported 14 players
still on the injury Hqt, but was
cheered by announcement that No.
1 quarterback Gil Bartosh proba-
bly will be ready to play Saturday.
Meygr, however, didn’t put much
stock in Crow's 10© to 0 warning.
Ga me-of-t he-Week
Southern Methodist’s Mustangs
looked razor-sharp in a long of-
fensive and defensive drill, and
Coach Rusty Russell’s chief pro-
blem appeared to be in keeping
them that way for the nation’s
game of the week Saturday
against powerful Texes.
Russell particularly was cheer-
ed by performance of his son and
top quarterback, Rusty Russell Jr.,
who appeared unhampered by rib
injuries suffered last month as he
scampered through the drill.
At Austin, site of the headline
battle, the Texas Longhorns work-
ed hard to solve a doubly problem
—how to stop SMU’s vauted air-
ground attack, and at the same
time grind out enough touchdowns
to outscore the Ponies.
The defensive unit operated
against the fourth team, which
aimutated SMU’s attack, in the full
contact drill.
Coach Otis Douglas, mindful of
the cruehing ground attack Texaa
AAM will offer Saturday, drilled
hia Arkansas linemen hard on
blocking assignments yesterday,
while back field men polished playe
and worked on passing.
Douglas pointed out errors com-
mitted by the Porkers against
Vanderbilt Inst week.
Bab Smith Rejoins Aggies
Aggie fullbeck Bob Smith, the
backbone of the AAM ground
forces, looked particularly fero-
cious In practice yesterday as
sported s special mask to protec
his nose, broken in the
fray.
Coach Harry Stiteler exp'
several new plays to the Cadets,
who then spent an hour polishing
them. »
End Dorbandt Barton and guard
Max Greiner were named to co-
captain AAM against Arkansas.
The Rice Owls, only conference
team to meet outside opposition
this week, scheduled a hard ses-
sion tods yin preparation for the
Texas Tech game Saturday. Coach
Jeaa Neely said his squad would
be in near-top condition when it
meeta Tech.
