Against 352

COLLEGE STATION. Tex, Nov. l0.
Coach Roswell Higginbotham's Tex
as Aggie freshman gridsters will meet
the Blinn Memorial College team az
Brennan % Kyle Field, Saturday.
Nov. q. James Sullivan, business
manager Of athletics az a. & NJ, has
announced. This date Is the only
open Saturday in the schedule OF the
Aggie varsity eleven before the close
of the season on Thanksgiving. and
the game between the freshmen and
Blinn will give local fans a full sports
card for the remainder Of the season.
Coach "Siki" Skies, Blinn mentor and
former all-conference end with the
Aggics. has developed a formidable
eleven III his first year az Blinn and
thus far his team has lost only one
game. that 70 Allen Academy team
by the narrow margin Of one point.
In the past the Aggie freshmen have
met the Allen Academy eleven for
their gam each year but this season
no arrangements for game with the
Allen team matured and IL Is likely
that annual game will be scheduled
with Blinn in the future.
Since Coach Dana y. Bible has
been head coach at A. & NJ. the Ag-
ries have piled up a total Of 22s5
points against their opponents 3d.,
giving the Aggies we'll over six times
as many points a their opponents
have made. Coach Bible has produc-
"a two teams which went through the
season without being scored upon.
The first eleven which had a perfect
year was that of 1917, Bibles first
year as head coach. That year the
Aggios made 275 points and did not
have their goal line crossed. The fol-
lowing year. 1915, Coach Bible was
in the army. Upon his return in 1919
he again put an unsecured on eleven
on the field. The following year he
missed duplicating this remarkable
feat BY a hair. losing tho last game
az the season To the Texas Lcng-
horns, 7-3. This defeat not only
spoiled the Aggies' perfect record but
blasted their pennant hopes that
year.
When the r. G. L. Horned Frogs
defeated the Aggie Go. on Kyle Field
Oct. 20. il was the third time that ar
Aggic eleven bowed to a conference
team on Kyle Field under the regime
