Perry Samuels of Texas took a
surprise victory in the 100-yard
dash, nosing out Baylor’s Bullet
Bill Martineson by an eyelash in
a blanket finish. T.u.’s Allen Law
ler was third, a nose ahead of
Fowler of Arkansas with the favor
ed Charley Parker running fifth.
Parker, off to a miserable start
in the century, came back to win
the 220 and anchor the Steer sprint
relay team to a narrow victory over
Baylor and A.&M. The Longhorn
quartet toured the 440 yards in
41.2, two-tents of a second under
the old conference record.
All in all, the Aggies took seven
firsts (including the three-way
draw in the pole vault), three sec
onds (Hahn in the 880, Jay in the
broad jump, and Holbrook in the
440); three thirds (Mortensen in
the low hurdles, Bilderback in the
440 and the sprint relay team) and
four fourths (Young in the shot,
Vajdos in the 880, Mortensen in the
high hurdles and Bonnen in the
two-mile.) Davis got the % point
for his tie for fourth in the pole
vault. i
