in fielding. Both scored on Broileu
triple, his aecond in two days. Clark
brought Broileu iu by singling, went
to third on Hillln's grounder, and a
paused bull and scored when Allnoch
threw wild to Tolle to catch Clark.
Rice threatened to even up in the
second when Knipple tripled, and
Barnes walked. Barnes was out when
lie attempted to steal second. Bobbitt
walked, and both he and Knipple
scored on Allnoch's single. Abies sac-
rificed Danny to second and when
Hill in walked both Bloxsom and Fox
the sacks were full. Tolle forced Fox
at second to end the inning.
The Aggies scored again in the
fourth, fifth and ninth, while Bice
counted on in the eighth when Heavy
Underwood walked, stole second and
took third when Scbuenneman over-
threw the keystone. Baiter put Barnes
grounder over the first baseman's
head and Bice scored.
Broiles was the heavy stickraan for
the Aggies collecting two triple blows
in two days' play. Danny Allnoch was
the big batsman for Rice placing three
balls in the outfield, one of them a
triple.

SECOND GAME-BOX SCORE
STEERS
I0WL RAQUETEERS
IN DUAL CONTEST
Appell Defeated First Time
This Season By
Mather
The Texas Longhorn net tern suc-
ceeded in defeating the Owls in five
ot the six matches played on the
Texas Memorial Stadium Courts.
Barr and Sloan kept the Steers from
making it a clean sweep by defeating
the second doubles combination in
two long deuce sets. 7-5. 8-6.
The feature match of the meet was
the singles between long "Red"
Mather. Texas University captain anil
nationally ranking collegiate star, and
"Little" Morris Appell in a long-drawn-
out match, 4-ti, 41-2, 9-7. This was the
first defeat for the Sophomore Owl
ace in the six dueal meets of the year,
and the Longhorn iiettnr was forced
to the limit In annexing this victory.
Captain C. Herbert Sloan met de-
feat at the hands of Wilnier Allison
in a closer match than the score In-
dicates, 0-0, (1-2. This was a match
of bullet-like drives by both con-
testants.
Torn Barr lost to Louis Ferguson
only after a hard fight, and a close
match, 6-4, 0-8, 6-1. The services of
both contestants were their strong
points, with the Texas requeteer
breaking through to win the first set
and consequently the match.
Ed Beckenbach was baffled by the
left-handed Dunlap and lost in easy
sets 6-3. 6-3. , .
The star Rice doubles team of Ap-
pell and Beckenbach met their first
conference defeat by the scores of
6-4, 7-5. The Owls were off their
stride because of the weariness of
Appell, who showed the effects of his
grueling singles tilt.
This was the last dual meet of the
year, so now the team is in serious
training for the Conference Meet,
which will be held on May 18, 19, and
20. The place of play has not been
decided yet.

Element of Luck
Mick !s generally described as some-
thing that ©4 happens seemingly by
chance. It may be an event either
«'"'d or evil which affects the inter-
ests jjr happenings of an individual,
but this happening is entirely casual.
"Lucky," however, carries the idea of
good luck only.
OWL BALL TOSSOS
TO CLOSE SEASON
Games With T. C. U. and
S. M. U. Will Be Last
The Owl nine ends the baseball sea-
son abroad over the coming week-end
with four games at Dallas and Fort
Worth. Bedeuk's crew will meet the
Mustangs at Dallas this coming Fri-
day and Saturday and the Horned
frogs ut Ft. Worth on Monday and
Tuesday, returning to Houston In time
for a whole week of extra cramming.
The Owls should tuke at least three
games of this batch, one from the
Mustangs anil two from the T. C. U.
crowd.
Phil Abies addition to the regular
staff gives the team a more even
chance at the opponents and with

of his I'rep school days the Owls will

shown by the number St triples that
have been collected in the last two
days, both Bob Abies and Knipple get-
cjAiing one in addition to Danny's.
Bob Abies will see his last year of
service in a Rice uniform as will
Heavy Underwood, and "Woozy" Blox-
som. Of these three, Bob's loss will
be most felt for the pitching depart-
ment ai Rice is usually weak. "Wooasy"
is a great ball player from a ball play-
ing family and he will also be hard
to replace. Heavy is the best known
athlete in the conference and held
down the backstop position until this
year when he took over first base be-
cause of Grant's hand. He has more
than filled the position, and his steadi-
ness will be missed.
