Tuesday, February 19, 1952 THE BATTALION Page 3 Aggies Seek Revenge, Challenge Frogs Tonite By JIM ASHLOCK Battalion Sports Writer Refreshed and revenge minded after their 61-47 slaughter of the SMU Mustangs Saturday night, A&Ms cage team will be out to make up for their two time loss to the TCU Horned Frogs when they engage the Frogs in Ft. Worth tonight. Coach John Floyd left with his eleven man squad for Dallas yes- terday afternoon where they plan- Eddie Houser Forward ned to spend the night before journeying to Ft. Worth today. TCU, presently one and a half games ahead of Texas University for the conference crown, won their first encounter with the Aggies 65-35 in the Southwest Conference Pre-season Tournament in Dallas ,on Dec. 29. The second engage- ment, in College Station on Feb. 6, also went to the Frogs, 52-41. George McLeod, 6-7 Frog capt- ain and center, will lead the at- *tack against A&M. The towering Houston senior popped the mesh for 27 points in the Dallas meeting of the two teams, but was held to only 8 in the second clash at A&M. Other probable starters for Chiistian coach Byron BusterBrannons hardwood five will prob- ably be Harvey Fromme, John Eth- ridge, Bryan Kilpatrick, and Ted Reynolds. Walter Davis, Raymond Walker, LeRoy Miksch, Eddie Houser, and Don Binford will probably get Coach Floyds nod for starting pos- itions. The game will mark the last col- lege meeting of Davis and McLeod. The two giant pivotmen, both of whom have been considered by basketball experts as two of the finest the SWC has ever produced, haxe been conducting their own private fued for the past three seasons. At present Davis, three points behind Baylors Ralph John- sons first place marks in confer- ence scoring, is leading his rival by one point, but McLeod holds the high point honors for seasonal play. Binford, completely recovered from his early season leg injury, performed yeoman service in the SMU game Saturday night as he cleared the hoop for 16 points and played a fine defensive game. The 6-1 Kansas cagester has shown rapid improvement in recent games and should see a lot of service in the two years of eligibility re- maining before him. Another relatively new addition to the Aggie starting lineup who has played excellent ball in re- cent games is Ed Houser. His speed and power have proven vital defen- sive aides to the speed shy Ag- gies. Houser, who did not play last season, still has a year before him in which he can play if he so chooses. Coach Floyd is expected to send his cagers into the game with in- structions to shoot when the op- portunity offers itself, but to keep the ball moving. The Frogs will have the advantage of their home court, but the Farmers are out to erase the scar the two losses to TCU have placed on their record, and this inspiration could prove to be the key to victory. Fish Mural Spring Semester Started According to Barney Welch, A&M intramural director, fresh- man intramurals will get under way this afternoon with Wrestling, ping pong, and bowling holding the current spotlight of another col- lege-wide sports participation pro- gram. Ping pong and bowling matches will be held in the MSC. Boxing, softball, and handball will be started later in the semes- ter. Davis Places 2nd In SWC Scoring Race BASED ON AP REPORT A&Ms center, Buddy Davis, used a big 44 point jump against 1 Arkansas and SMU to climb within four points of the equally skipping Ralph Johnson of Baylor in the race for conference scoring honors last week.

Aggies Seek Revenge, Challenge Frogs Tonite

By JIM ASHLOCK Battalion Sports Writer

Refreshed and revenge minded after their 61-47 slaughter of the SMU Mustangs Saturday night, A&M’s cage team will be out to make up for their two time loss to the TCU Horned Frogs when they engage the Frogs in Ft. Worth tonight.

Coach John Floyd left with his eleven man squad for Dallas yes­terday afternoon where they plan-

Eddie HouserForward

ned to spend the night before journeying to Ft. Worth today.

TCU, presently one and a half games ahead of Texas University for the conference crown, won their first encounter with the Aggies 65-35 in the Southwest Conference Pre-season Tournament in Dallas

,on Dec. 29. The second engage­ment, in College Station on Feb. 6, also went to the Frogs, 52-41.

George McLeod, 6-7 Frog capt­ain and center, will lead the at-

*tack against A&M. The towering Houston senior popped the mesh for 27 points in the Dallas meeting of the two teams, but was held to only 8 in the second clash at A&M.

Other probable starters for Chi’istian coach Byron “Buster” Brannon’s hardwood five will prob­ably be Harvey Fromme, John Eth­ridge, Bryan Kilpatrick, and Ted Reynolds.

Walter Davis, Raymond Walker, LeRoy Miksch, Eddie Houser, and Don Binford will probably get Coach Floyd’s nod for starting pos­itions.

The game will mark the last col­lege meeting of Davis and McLeod. The two giant pivotmen, both of whom have been considered by basketball experts as two of the finest the SWC has ever produced, haxe been conducting their own private fued for the past three seasons. At present Davis, three points behind Baylor’s Ralph John­son’s first place marks in confer­ence scoring, is leading his rival by one point, but McLeod holds the high point honors for seasonal play.

Binford, completely recovered from his early season leg injury, performed yeoman service in the SMU game Saturday night as he cleared the hoop for 16 points and played a fine defensive game. The 6-1 Kansas cagester has shown rapid improvement in recent games and should see a lot of service in the two years of eligibility re­maining before him.

Another relatively new addition to the Aggie starting lineup who has played excellent ball in re­cent games is Ed Houser. His speed and power have proven vital defen­sive aides to the speed shy Ag­gies. Houser, who did not play last season, still has a year before him in which he can play if he so chooses.

Coach Floyd is expected to send

his cagers into the game with in­structions to shoot when the op­portunity offers itself, but to keep the ball moving. The Frogs will have the advantage of their home court, but the Farmers are out to erase the scar the two losses to TCU have placed on their record, and this inspiration could prove to be the key to victory.

Fish ’Mural Spring Semester Started

According to Barney Welch, A&M intramural director, fresh­man intramurals will get under way this afternoon with Wrestling, ping pong, and bowling holding the current spotlight of another col­lege-wide sports participation pro­gram.

Ping pong and bowling matches will be held in the MSC.

Boxing, softball, and handball will be started later in the semes­ter.

Davis Places 2nd In SWC Scoring Race

BASED ON AP REPORTA&M’s center, Buddy Davis,

used a big 44 point jump against 1 Arkansas and SMU to climb within

four points of the equally skipping Ralph Johnson of Baylor in the race for conference scoring honors last week.
