Kirwin High
School Job
Homer Norton, former football

Norton plans to move to Gal

to his newly acquired, coaching
position he wilt complete work,
his beach front hotel, and
ulfilled its name. Eleven records
were broken. Five of the new
marks were better than either
SWC or Big Seven records.
The onslaught of the records
j was in itself a record, for the over-
aU performers werathe best turned
in for any collegiate meet in the
nation this year.
Husky Mel Sheehan of Mis
souri opened the assault on the
records by twirling the discus
167 feet 7' 4 inches in the first
of two events held at Reverchon
i Park Friday afternoon. In the
second event Frank Guess of
Texas also set a new mark by
! Wlnn'ng the javelin throw with a

yard run with a tinie of 48.4; Per
ry Samuels of Texas beat his team
mate Charlie Parker, winning the
100 yard dash in 9.5, bettering the :
old record of 9.9 which was set by ,
another Texas teammate, Allen I
Lowler, in. 1947. Clyde Scott of I
Arkansas iet a new record of 14.2
in the high hurdles* when he edged

New Softball Diamond Built
For Aggie All-Star team
The new floodlight poles towering above the trees just
south of the grove are the site of a neW softball diamond for
fthe entertainrtyent of summer'school students, Taylor Wil
kins, Veterans Advisor, announced today. 1
The team last VfflarJ composed of -—* *■ —I ———f 4 —

is 13 In a five-inning
by rain.
In the 10 games he has pitched
this year, he has given up but 23
hits but only one earned run.
Five feet 10 inches fall and
weighing 160 pounds, Path uses, a
speed ball most of the time. His
control is phenomenal, Coach Fe
lix Neal insists.
His hitting is as good as his
pitching. He has a .470 average.
In r one gamp he rapped out a
single, three doubles and a triple,
driving home six runs.
Neal, a 1943 graduate of Mis
sissippi State where 'he played
football, 'basketball and baseball,
says Pate is almost as good a
football halfback and basketball
forward as he is a diamond pitch
er.
The youngster plans to finish •
school at St. George High, and'
possibly attend college. ■ He re
fuses to say whether he wants
a professional baseball career.
Neither of his older brothers
has ever played professional base
ball, nor has his widowed father,
W. A. Pate, who christened his
youngest son Francis Marion, af
ter the state’s Rtf
hero general.

I A little nutter of a guarantee
posted | in New Jersey assures
Graziario, the WirtdrewcighFchlump,
of at least $120,000. The ex-champ
from Gary, Ind. will get $60,000

Despite early optimistic esti
mates of a Ruppert Stadium I gate
of p450;000, it] looks now as though
they’ll settle for $350,000. At !J30
tops ihe hqtise is scaled for a
$540,000 sellout.
Apparently the eight-year youth
advantage of Graziano, who is 26
to Zaie's 34, is the most important
factor with those who bet on
fights. Rocky was established as
an early favorite and remains 5 to
12 despite the late hour. Some
