The Decatur alumnus, now 25 years old, put in three years of varsity football at the Flats. He was All-Conference quarterback in 1944 and 1916.

The appointment was confirmed by telephone to Waco, where Woodruff, Tech's line coach last year, took over his new duties early this year. Broyles, the named to Woodruff's coaching staff, said he planned to move to Baylor March 22, three days after he completes work for his degree at Tech.

Rene Cortes and Kenneth Deal, both pitchers, also checked in.

Counting several boys who came to camp on their own for try-out, the Crackers now have 61 men here. Manager Kiki Cuyler ended two-a-day practices this afternoon and split the squad up into four teams for intra-squad games which are expected to start Sunday. Bob Smith's team is composed-of Pitchers, James Bryant, Mason Leeper, Forest Thompson, Guin Cronic, Walter Biles and Stan-West; Catchers paul Ellington and Spec Dozier; Outfielders Ernest Logan, Charley Weathers and Bob Voitier; and Infielders Jimmy Blair, Roy Hartsfield, Gene Verble and Charley plock, who along coaching ranks.

McCall fanned 179 men in 165 innings aind anybody in the least inclined towards mathematics will readily figure that is better than one man whiffed per inning. Ki Ki Cuyler's Crackers were McCall's favorite people while 'recking up this strikeout mark. He whiffed 17 of our Brave Lads last April 30 to tie the league record for strikeouts in a nine-inning And then on June 26, disdainfully famned 13 more on our side. In the Southern League last season there were 28 games in which nine or more hitters walked tack to.

On August 30, Thompson fanned 12 Little Rock Travelers and McGowfan repeated the performance the very next day. McGowan also had 11 strikeouts to his credit in a nine-inning game against' Birmingham on June 2 and Thompson recorded the same number against Mobile on Sept. 6.

Bill Ayers was th only other Cracker pitcher to enter the ranks cf the leaders. The rangy right-hander turned in a pair of 10 strike-cut performances, one of them his historical 21-inning job against Mobile which ended in a tie.

Only recently, at Sealy's Mineral Springs, Cottonwood, Bill was the leader in an early morning race. Bill led the other hounds on a winding six-mile chase which ended with the fox about 20 feet up a tree on a limb. Bill tried ainly to climb the tree, and tften the hunters called off the dogs.

The fox was spared because of the scarcity of reds in the Cottonwood section.
