However, it seems this year that the only logical choice is to place sev- en A & M men on the team. We present our selection: First Team Catchers: Koch, Baylor. Pitchers: Shaw, A & M; De ]a Fuente, Texas; Hawes, A & M; Peo- ples, Texas. First Base: Carpenter, A & M. Second: Davis, A & Al. Third: Pampell, A & M. Short Stop: Ater, Texas. Left Field. Bell. A & M. Center Field: Veltman, A & M Right Field: Koy, Texas. 1 ball artist from Dallas, ended their baseball careers at Aggieland in a blaze of glory when the figured prominently in defeating Uncle Billy Disch's heretofore invincible Long- horns 8 to 16, to win the conference baseball crown Saturday afternoon on Kyle field. Bell had his second perfect day at bat in as many games with a home run, a single, and two free passes. His play on the defense was flawless throughout and in the fourth round, with the score tied, two men on and two out, he slammed the ball to cen- ter for four bases. In all, Bell scored ' three runs himself and batted in two ' more. With two down in the first, after four unearned runs had been scored r, , All Hawes took charge of the hurling f 5 duties and had the Steers "eating i a out of his hand until the ninth frame , when he weakened slightly and allow- ed three hits, which accounted for two tallies. . y After Carpenter had gone out, pitch- 1 ' Puri ` er to first in the second, and Davis p # Y ' had gone out swinging, Garvey reach- +}t r ed first when Baumgarten dropped his ' I i ,a"• M 1 easy- fly to left. Hawes, next up, with l f a terrific wallop trippled to left cen- ' _ ter to bring in the first A ggie marker. I'ampell then singled sharply to left scoring Hawes. Mitchell rolled out, - short to first to retire the side. The next inning found the Steer hurler again in the hole when Veltman was issued free passage to first. Bell followed with a neat single over sec- ond sending Veltman to third. Hen- derson then smacked the ball squarely into center field for a clean double scoring Veltman and Bell. The next men went out in order, Henderson be- ing held at third. Hawes fouled to the catcher to start the fourth inning and Pampell got his second safety with a nice double to left. Mitchell drew- a walk and was out on an easy fly to short. Beau Bell then hit a terrific clout to the center garden, which Koy fielded poor- ly and it went under the stadium for a home run. Henderson rolled out pitcher to first and there the Aggie scoring ended until the seventh frame. In the seventh Bell, after being walked, went to second when Hender- son was hit by a pitched ball, gained third on a passed ball and scored on Davis' long fly to center. The sensational defensive play of Sweetie Davis, Hendy Henderson and Mitch Mitchell compared favorably to the perfect performance of captain Beau Bell at the plate and the master- ful twirling of Axel Hawes. Davis' catch of White's drive to right field was a little short of miraculous, while Mitchell's perfect throw to second in the seventh would have done credit I to a major leaguer. After two bobbles in the first inning, Henderson played errorless ball the remainder of the way. His very efficient handling of Ater's drive through second in the fifth inning and a great catch of Bloe- baum's fly in the ninth far oversha- dowed his two misplays early in the j game. i Although he failed to connect in, four trips to the plate, Bob Garvey,) the Polk County product caught a per- feet game behind the bat and was frequently found down the first base line eager to assist in case of a mis- throw. Squawk Veltman also had an off day at the plate, but was credited with only two official trips and two walks. George Carpenter covered the initial sack well throughout, handling nine chan°es without a miscue.
