A Game For Bill Bible TEXAS WILL BE READY SATURDAY! You see what is gained by being ready by taking a look at the Rice game. This does n’t necessarily mean that Texas will beat S.M.A., but the Longhorns will put up a good ball game. Laughing and skeptical D. X. Bible expressed hope that a birthday or a baby would turn up before this Saturday. For every game this year, the Longhorns have dedicat ed them to one of the two. Bill Bible, son of the Texas coach, will celebrate a birth day on October 31 and the S.M.U. game will probably be dedicated to the future Longhorn. Schwarzing Came Back Things that slipped the mind over the happy and successful week end— _ Time magazine, with its female sports _ editor, rates Texas and Duke as the top teams of the “South.” She makes no distinction h be tween South and Southwest. This is some kind of honor, because Texas has made the national weekly publication very few times. A bushel of razzber ries to our college at Arkan sas A. for the article critic izing Bible for “running up” a score in the Texas-Arkan sas game. The writer says Bible was getting revenge for the score of the 1938 game played in Little Rock when the Hogs beat Texas 42-to-6. Looks like the man from Fayetteville took a poke at his own coach. To Preston Flana gan, Vernon Martin, and other forgotten men in the Longhorn lineup, heaps of praise and apol ogies for some great foot ball and our (speaking for the press box mem bers) laxity in recogniz ing your invaluable work for the past five Satur days. To Joe Schwarzing, the former all-state end, who was said to be through last year because of two bad knees, but has worked his way back into the Steer line-up. This came to the front with your wonderful exhibition against the Owls, both offensively and _ de fensively, Aggies Convinced Us Much to the surprise of this corner and_ several others who picked Baylor over the Aggies, and there were quite a few chumps, something happened. Yeah, something drastic! Who would’ve ever thought Jack Wilson Co., could be beat en by such a score. Guess the apologies should go to Hom er Norton’s crew who took the Bruins and made nice rugs for the dormitories at Aggieland. But don’t get the idea that Baylor is weak. A. M. gained possession of the ball eight times against Baylor when they shouldn’t have. In the lan guage of coaches, inter ceptions and fumbles are mistakes and Baylor made exactly eight mistakes that way. The Cadets in tercepted six Bear passes and pounced on two of the Waco lads’ fumbles. Put it down that our choice is Texas A. M. this next week end no matter who the opponent might be. Amos Melton, Fort Worth Star-Telegram, and Jinx Tucker, Waco Herald-Trib une couldn’t find enough ad jectives for the Aggies.
