Weyland at Plainview, Amarillo,
and Blinn at Brenham.
Corpus Christi anfl Texas Luth- j
eran are the two teams which were 1
most needed to make the 'tourna
ment a real staid-wide playoff.
There Is fto doubt but that this
event will have most of the top
flight Junior College basketball
teams in the state.
Aggies got a glimpse of the
talent; which will converge herfl
when ! NT AC played the! Fish:
Beeh in DeWarc Field House, last
j-month. i |
J. D. White, the high sedrer fbr
that game, is ranked at the 12th
highest scorer in the state.
" Invitations will be extended to
other schools in a few days when
the highest-ranking teams have
been determined. The teams al
ready selected are leading, or in
second ‘ place, in their respective
districts., f T.
This event is sponsored by the
Brazos County A&M Club. Tib
winnor’s trophy is now on display
'at Lipscomb’s Pharmacy.
Additional tournament entrants
are expected to be chosen in the
next week to bring the number^of
competiting teams to lo, which
will give the full tourname'nt

fficial Criticism
By HUGH FULLERTON, JR.
IHEW YORK,! Feb. 19
Possibly it is the influence of the
basketball season that has led to
so Jnuch whistle-blowing in sports
redmtly . . .
That isn’t the kind of tooting
the" court refs do but blowing the
whistle op various customs that
have been more or less under cover
for* years. First it was Ed Mc-
K^ver’s “White Paper’’ about foot-
bajlll eligibility and now the pro
gldljfers’ fuss qver using winter
ruljs. . t
• Hit has been np great secret that
t)hw golf touriste have- interpreted
Urn rules rather' liberally, on the
theory that low scores attract pay-
ipH t customers, and that various
|grauf>s and individuals are const-
apj^ly feuding though it seldom
breaks out in fisticuffs.
: Neither has the recruiting of
college football players been en-
tfrely cloaked in secrecy, though
jVfcKeever has been called
ethrcaP’ for talking too

Bemie Sytan and Buddy Fishei
finished first-and second, respec

Syfart swam this event for the
first time Tuesday, the,day before
the meet.
Dependable Danny Green came
through with two firsts, in the 50
and 100 yard free style races.
• |: .*•' ■■ * j /
Green broke |w*ol records in
both of these events. His time
for the shorter distance was
23.5 seconds, compared to the old
pool record of 23.7, and the
standing ^conference record of
23.6 (both of which Green set).
In the 100-yard race, Gljeen beat
his old mark of 53.2 by a full 6ec-
ond. / : i'
Jack' Riley also placed in both
events with a third in the 50 and
second in the 100. The crowd was
worried when he had almost a pho
to-finish with Dudley Fowler ; of
Texas.
A&M took seven out of,ten first
places, five seconds and three
thirds in racking up their easy win
over the Steers.
Texas U. took three first places,
five seconds, and four thirds. Kar-
bach took the breaststroke. Tolar
the diving, and the medley relay
team came in ahead of the Aggies.
Texas would have made things
much closer of the Aggie team
if two of their best men, Hill,
breaststroker, and Jim McCann,
star distance’ man, had come
with the team.
Jack Tolar, diver for the Texas
team, iyas unmatchable as he piled
up one of the
scores recorded at, A&M. Tolar
chose several difficult dives—the
more (Difficult the dive, the more
points the diver gets—to run up
his high total and leave the others
behind. Tolar also placed second in
the 50 yard race.
Dave Vardanian turned in a
fine performance in the 440 dis
tance race. After the first lap
Vardanian led all the way, and j
finished 20 ft. ahead of his near
est opponent.
Both 'Dick Lea and Jerry Fishet
turned in good performances in thtj
100 yard Breaststipke as they fin!
ished behind Karbach, but ahead
of the other TU man, Dick White.
A&M would not have had a cinch
victory if Texas had taken first
and second place in this event.
