. ij. D .Hampton, distance ace on the A&M track team,
has been selected by the Batt Sports Staff as Star of the

Hampton, a senior agricultural student from Brady,
earned the selection last Saturday when he won both the mile

and two mile runs in the Border
Olympic at Laredo.
His runs were the outstanding
feature of the Border games be
cause he broke records in both of
those runs.
The record that' he cut the
most time on was the mile.
Blaine Rideout, Aggie trainer,
set the old record of 4:22.6 in
1940 when he was running for
North Texaa State. Hampton
shaved it down to 4:18.7.
Probably the most satisfying to
Hampton though, was his break-'
ing of the record set for the two-
mile last year by his old rival,
Jerry Thompson, from Texas Uni
versity. He shaved 1.3 seconds from
Thompson’s record when he ran it
in 9:36.
Hampton was the pace setter
for the Aggie Cross Country
Team last fall when it defeated
the defending champion, Texas
MJniversity, and won the confer
ence championship.
High hopes are
by
coaches of the Aggie team
the
this
year for. Hampton. He is the out
standing distance runner in the
Southwest and is favored to take
the same tWp runs in the confer
ence meet at Fayetteville. Those
wihs will add up to u lot of points
for; the Aggies. , i*
