football will return to most Texas

The Surprising thing about the
referendum conducted by the in-
terwdiolastic league on the question
was that class B schools voted tp
resume spring practice but class
A schools did not.
This explodes all opinions. It
was believed that the smaller
schools didn’t want spring train
ing because of the manpower sit
uation—l they didn’t have enough
athletes to carry on the regular
spring sports with most tied up
for 30 days when baseball, track
and other activities are, in full
bloom.
The class; A schools probably will
seek' another referendum as soon
i possiblel
Track and, field and baseball
have done much better since spring
football was cut out last year—
by a referendum vo,te of the league
membership. Take a look at White
Oak*, which last Saturday won the
state class B track title. It was the
first state championship this school
ever knew. White Oak had been
predominantly football since its in
ception. But spring football was
eliminated and now the-school has
won a track title with a brilliant
record. But the class B schools
will return to spring training pext
year.. What are, White Oak’s
chances in track next season?
Baseball has flowered in the past,
two years. The state tournament
scheduled in Austin in June may

thing. It nifty illustrate to them

and won't do anything about II.
They, want to go on playing "ptT*-

game so much it makes their Job
Harder.

Stan Lambert, coach at Lamar
Junior College pud publicity mjuii
rtf the Texas High School Coachcii
Association,' recently became a
member of the Texas Sports Writ
ers Association.
As secretary of the association
I mailed Stan his card and wrojtei
"You’ve always wanted to be a
sports writer? now write a good
story.”
Stan’s rejoinder was: "I didn’t
know writing a good Story was a
requirement for being a sports
writer.” 1 : ./
Anyway, Lambert wants all
sports writers who plan to attend
the Texas coaching school at Beau
mont in August to get their
ervations m pronto. Write

High school athletes who run
afoul of the amateur rule in jthe
interscholastic league won’t be in
eligible more than one year under
a rule voted by the league mem
bership. Heretofore they have
declared professionals and
ineligible forever.
Another .thing: A boy who viaits
a college campus and looks oyor
the plant with the idea of going
there, meanwhile accepting
and lodging, can prevent bosng
found in violation of the amatjeur
rule by . paying for the hoard and
lodging.
Tharc in no rule along this Ifne
out league officials give that as' 3
