The match will be staged at Mad- ison Square Garden on Friday, No- vember 12, under the promotion of Mike Jacobs. | The two fighters agreed to weigh in between 160 and 165 pounds. | S eee | | | | SPCRT. 3 SLANTSS) i ot | The famed “thin red line” of the Texas Aggies is not so thin judging from the lengths and breadths of 53 players who reported to Coach Homer Norton when practice began.| Totaling almost five tons the foot- ball talent averages 181 pounds a man in weight and 5 feet 11 inches in height. | More than three of the five tons are wrapped up in 24 linemen who total 6,540 pounds, averaging 193, pounds a man. The average height is 6 feet. | Roy Young, all-southwest guard last season, takes the ribbon for weight, scaling 216 pounds. Young wears the largest shoe on the squad* 14 inches long and 7% inches wide. They are tailor-made and cost the Aggie Athletic Association $40 a pair. Young is not at all proud of this distinction. Opposing linesmen will do well not to bring the matter up. Roy is a senior, with two football letters already to his credit. He also earned varsity letters in track in 1935 and 1936, and held the intra- mural heavyweight boxing title in 1935. b Of course, the star of the Aggies’ line is Joe Routt, the school’s first tuil-fledged all-America player. He is finishing his eligibility, haying been ineligible in 1934. For a player, who was unable to win his letter as| 2 freshman, in 1933, he has done pretty well in climbing to the top of the stack of all-time Aggie °% “greats.” Southwest conference critics be-| gan beating the all-America drums for Routt early last fall. Pacific Coast writers were greatly impress- ed by his playing, summing it up| with “Routt was a ‘riot’ at guard.”| Utah football scribes declared the coast writers were too conservative after having seen him in action against the University of Utah in! Salt Lake City. A 60-minute player,| the more he played the better Routt seemed to be. . Routt laughingly describes him-| self as “the toughest man in Texas.”| That's taking in a lot of territory.| But opponents are none too keen to| seek a demonstration of his hard- ness. e, i — 3 HOSPITAL NOTES — s Tex Leonard, a surgical patient, is to be dismissed from St. Ann’s| Hospital tomorrow. Mrs. Lars Tjemaslé and baby daughter left St. Ann's Hospital yesterday. Sam Milonas observed his one year anniversary of treatment at St. Ann’s Hospital, Saturday. He has been receiving treatment there for complications following a broken leg. Mrs. Vivian Williams and son were | to leave the Government Hospital today.
