STATION, shambles of a disastrous Texas A. and M. season there stands a football player. Bob Smith is his name and he has waded through enemy litbs COLLEGE (AP)Amid the as though playing for unbeaten, untied Notre Dame. Every blast is 'painful but the sophomore rolls on driving, crashing, fighting for a team that tries but can't give him much help. Some ligaments were pulled out of position in his shoulder near the neck before the opening game of the season with Villanova. He was in that one only four plays, carrying the ball once for six yards. The next week he cracked through 21 times for 214 yards against Texas Tech. He had to keep his left hand clutched against his shoulder to avert fur 190-pou- nd ther injury while carrying the ball. Against Oklahoma the Aggies got 62 yards rushing, 48 by Smith. Against Louisiana State he had ,56 yardsall A. and M. gained on 'the ground. Against Texas Christian he made 37 yards of the Aggles' total of 58. Against Baylor last week Smith gained 65 yards of the AggIes 126. Be leads the Southwest Conference in ball carrying with 410 yards net on 86 triesan average of 4.8 yards per effort. Thus he has accounted for more than 57 per cent of the Aggie yardage on the ground because the entire team has gained only 712. In passing A. and M. shows just 371. A. and M. has played six games and won only onea 26-- 7 deciTexas Tech. sion over But it's no fault of Smith. If he had somebody to open a hole once in a while, the big fellow oft-beat-en probably would drive clear out of the stadium. At that, he's been stopped for only 17 yards in losses. He didn't have to come to A. and AL He was offered scholarships by several conference schools and by both Louisiana State and Tulane. But he chose Aggieland and isn't sorry about it. There's a brighter day coming for the Aggies. A. and M.'s football team is mostly sophomores this year. That means in 1950 or 1951 the line is going to dart giving pounding Bob some help. Twenty-seve- n of the 30 Aggies being used on the first string this season will return next fall. Most other conference schools will be hit hard by graduation.- Meanwhile, Bob Smith drives on. When his shoulder gets well, he will be used on defense, too. You can't keep a hand up to your shoulder to protect an injury when you're making tackles you know.
