By ART HOWARD
Top-nited Wayland’s loss to Blinn featured yesterday’s
play in the Junior College Tournament here. Wayland’s de
feat leaves the race wide cmen and without a definite favorite.
There was plenty of action yesterday but the hard-
fought Parife-AmariUo game was4-
I V

the beat show of the day.. Both
teams were powerful outfits but
they held each other’s score down
as Amerillo won, 52 to 43.
Tyler also showed plenty of class
while defeating Kilgore to 37.
