Slinging Sam Baugh Declines Pro Football for TCU Coaching
Fort Worth January 16 UP No pro football for Slingin Sam Baugh. He seeks a backfield coaching post at Texas Christian University, his alma mater, turning down offers up to 250 per appearance. He would earn under 2000 a season, preferring a lasting role with the Horned Frogs. Baugh, 22 years old, starred at TCU, throwing for 39 touchdowns and 3,444 yards in three seasons and helped lead TCU to Sugar Bowl glory. He cites Coach Dutch Meyer as the mentor who discovered him. A UT alumnus helped fund his trip to Fort Worth, but the move shaped a long chapter in college football lore. Two Tulsa junior high students study cooking, while Madison Square Garden offers 100 for top indoor photo.
