Shenson. Water Polo The Aggie water polo team tell on hard times as they struggled through the 9 l season with a 2 win and 8 loss record. Unable to find opponents in schools of compara- 1 tive size, the Aggies were forced to schedule games with some of the larger schools in the area. Starting the season the Mustangs were edged by the Athens Club of San Franeisco, 7 to 8. Next the Aggies were overwhelmed by the San Jose State Spartans, 13 to 4; nipped by Cal, 7 to 8; dropped by the Cal J.V., 7 to 5; and edged out in a hectic 10 to 12 battle by the Olympic Club. The natators came up with their first win of the season as they dropped Santa Clara, 9 to 3. In a return game Santa Clara turned the tables, clubbing the Aggies, 12 to 3. The Mustangs then split with the Olympic Club, winning 11 to 8, and losing 7 to 4. The last game of the season found 3 the San Jose Staters dropping the Ags again, 8 to 10. Paced by the goal making of i Merv Shenson and Rod Sutliff, and the fine goal work of Bill Burgess, the Aggies developed during the season into a smooth working team. With this year's experienced men and additions from the J. V., next year should find the Mustangs holding their own with all competition.
