|ACCIES WILL
PLAY IOWA U.
Power Plays Expected To
Be Texans Chief
Attack

COLLEGE STATION, Oct. s.
Power plays against q combination
running and aerial offensive are
expected to feature the intersec-
tional football clash Saturday, Oct.
10, between the Texas Aggies and
the University OF Iowa Hawkeyes at
Fair Park Stadium in Dallas. The
Iowa team Is noted for its line
ramming tactics and the Aggies
usually tend toward q more open
running attack mixed with forward
passes.
The Hawkeyes have at least three
capable line plungerS in Randall
Hickman, Captain Oliver SanSen
and Jerome KriZ. Sansen Is a full
back and Hickman and KriZ are
halfbacks. Hickman carried off
ground-gaining honors for the
Hawkeyes during the 1880 season,
storming through the Nebraska line
for 162 yards alone. Kriz and San
sen also are reputed to be two OF
the best blockers on the Hawkeye
team.
Iowa Strong
Reports from the Iowa camp in
dictate that only five players seem
to have positions on the first string
team virtually clinched. Besides
Sansen. Hickman and Kriz in the
backfield, James Dee IS playing
regularly at tackle and Edward
Dolly at guard. Dolly, however,
might be shifted from guard 70
center, a position he played in 1880,
to replace Marcus MagnuSsen, vet
eran Hawkeye pivot man who was
injured recently. Lyman Case, a
190-pound senior letterman. also Is
available for the POI at center.
Seventeen meen are reported TO be
battling for positions at end, alone,
Head Coach Madison Bell Of the
Aggies, on the other hand, seems
to have his first string line already
definitely picked. His backfields,
however, still are in the process OF
selection with at least eleven capa-
bic men fighting for positions. Al
present Coach Bell Is alternating
two complete backfields, the first
one being composed OF Jimmie

Frogs will start conditioning for
son against Matty Bells Texas Ag-
son agains tAIatty Bells Texas Ag-
gies in Fort Worth Oct. II. In the
meantime the Schmidtmen will be
hosts to Austin College Oct. 10.
The Kangaroos promise to furnish
comparatively less opposition than
either the Louisianians or the Okla
Romans.
The Aggie game this year marks
the final clash with Matty Bell
and his former pupils. The seniors
on the 1881 eleven were freshmen
during Bells last season az +. G.
u. in 1929. Thus, after this year,
some Of the color from the stand
point Of the players themselves
will be lacking. but the keen rival
ry between the two institutions Is
due to continue as 1t has been since
the Frogs admission to the South
west conference In 1923.
Coach Francis Schmidt Is grow
ing more ardent and earnest as
the football campaign ages. Last
week he added a blackboard to
the training table equipment SO
that he could give short chalk talks
while they were taking their mid
day meal. Now he IS forming the
habit OF stopping by Goode Hall,
the upper-classmen dormitory, on
his way to his office every morn

enemy formations. Sometimes his
talks are conducted in the parlor,
but when a more confidential mat

looms as a more dangerous threat
for a regular position in the Horned
Frog backfield. Although a south
paw, his punting is far better
than any me--er Of the squad.
His ball carrying has been the
greatest revelation Of the season.
His passing is fair. With the addi-
ton Of a serious passing threat to
the former Athens star, he Is due
to be one OF the southwest,s best
triple-threaters next year. It will
be rather difficult for him TO break
into a backfield composed Of Hin

There seems to be a dearth OF
material on Dutch Meyers fresh

Professional football has been
benefited by no little publicity
through q quarrel recently smoked
up with the college coaches. Coach
Bob Zuppke jumped into the debate
with the charges that professional
players are inclined to save them
selves, that the coaches Of profess
sional teams are inferior, that pro
players have lost the emotional
stimulus that raises college players
to the heights and that pro players
carry too much weight.
With all respect for Zuppke,'
replies Harold Red" Grange, whom
you may remember as having been
one Of Mr.. Zuppke's pupils, Il think
he's wrong.
Ten years ago his appraisal Of
pro football might have been cor-
rect. But I must say I never have
noticed any pro player saving him.
self whenever / tried to cut loose
for a run.
"Zupp taught me a lot Of foot
ball, but I have learned some, too,
since leaving Illinois. I don't think
there Is a smarter man coaching
college football than Ralph Jones,
coach OF the Chicago Bears"
Let the boys have their own little
quarrel; I'm not voting.
IT'S Funny
You might think that once in a
while the two judges and referee
appointed by the NV York Boxing
commission would stumble into a
correct decision on a given fight
1t seems impossible.
The most recent victim OF poor
officiating was Joe Sekyra, who al
but knocked Tommy Loughran out
and got the short end Of it for his
pains. It's almost safe TO figure
that a guy who loses the decision
in a bout in New York City really
should have had the duke.
Did You Know That
The first football game In
this country was played at
Rutgers in 1884,. between
Princeton and Rutgers. The
Rutgers players -ore scarlet
jerseys, long trousers and
muStaches. - There were rs men
on each side. The rules have
been changed a trifle since
then. The first side to score

is week the Hounds took a
Humping at Robstown.
The third >intersectional fray will
catch the Brownsville Junior Col
lege Scorpions doing battle with the
Fourteenth Field Artillery at
Brownsville Saturday. The Scorpions
should begin TO take on polish by
that time. They showed much in
dividual power last week in cleaning
out the 23rd infantry. Coach Red"
Irvine IS now moulding a machine
for the tough games to come-Sch-
reiner, Aggies, John Tarleton, etc.
It's dollars to doughnuts the Scorp
fans will see a smoothly clicking
machine Saturday.

business this week. The La FeTia-
Donna game tops the bill. Both clubs
are indicated and one is certain

Friday.
Another important game will find

team IS undefeated while Mission Is
PLAYING her first "B" game. The Mis-
sionites made a good showing against
the Halingen Cardinals in their
opening conflict.
Another game Of interest is Wet

inexperienced Weslaco team has not
broken into the win column. Mer-
