Now, only four days before they
face the jinX again with such rich
rewards as a second straight South
west Conference title and unbeaten
season, goth straight triumph and
a possible beckon to the Rose Bowl

Quarterback Marion Pugh, the ;Ag

signal caller, is ailing.
The rangy Fort Worth boy has. a

developed few hours after the Rice

he can't shake it. Pugh spent the

that he had practiced only briefly
the past week "but probably will be
able to start the Texas game. !"
Brains of the Aggie attack, Pugh
also rates as one of the country's
top forward passers with 40 COM
pletions out of "a attempts for 651
yards.
Pugh declares he will be ready.
"The only way they'll keep me out
of the lineup is to have me on
crutches." he says.
Rugged Marland Jeffrey, the boy
who almost completed a 60-yard
pass in the Rice game and great
pitcher himself. will be ready If
Pugh falls out of the Texas game.
Texas had no major injuries and

players-some of them major leag-

disclosed today.
Several players from the rosters
Of the st. Louis American league and

A member of the st. Louis

II tried my best to stop them,"
Dewitt said, but was unable to dc
so. And one of them is receiving a
salary from us of between $4,000 and
SO, OOO."
Roy Hamey, secretary of the
Kansas City club, a New York
Yankee farm, expressed indignation
that six of his players have applied
for the payments.
mot only is it shameful, I think
it is Illegal he said.
"Our contract reads that the play
err is employed by us from March
l to March 1 although they are paid
only during the playing season."
Hamey asserted the club manage
ment has protested with the com
mission against allowing the claims
He said the six applicants includ
ed: Al Piechota, a pitcher sold to
the Boston Nationals, Clyde McCul
Tough, a catcher now with the Chi
cago Cubs and William Matheson
o%utfielder recalled by the New York
Yankees.
The players collect the maximum
of SIS a week as long as they are
idle-up to<a maximum of II weeks
But if the employment service finds
them a job they'll have"to take it Of
get off the rolls.
Their right to benefits during the
off season was upheld in a ruling
by former Attorney General E. c
Crow, now a member of the state

mission.
"It doesn't seem right to me tina
