Ag Gagers Gain Added Acclaim Both Jewell McDowell and Johnny DeWitt came in for further acclaim over the Weekend as two more all-star selections listed the two Ag gies among those honored. Jinx Tucker placed Little Mac on his Waco Tribune-Herald All- Conference first team together with Don Heathington. of Baylor and Paul Mitchell of SMU at the forwards, Tom Hamilton of Texas at center, and Gene Schmidt of TCU at the remaining guard post. Tucker had this to say about the A&M star: “ . . . start' With Jewell McDowell of the Aggies, T«Vm Hamilton of Texas, and then start guessing.” He continued: “Jewell McDowell of A AM was the best all-around basketball player in the conference. He hud u great eye for the basket. His bull handling was superb, his all-around floorwork and general 1 - ship were brilliant, and He was an accurate shot.” Tucker placed DeWitt at center on his .third team, where Long Jbhn joined brother Bill of the Bears, a veteran guard. From Abilene Came the other ac colade for the two. ACC named DeWitt to a forward post and MrDowell to a guard position on its i all-opponent team. Herman Moore of Howard Payne joined- MrDowell at-.the guard slots- while DeWitt was teamed with Lou Zas- toupil of Texas Wesleyan. TCU’s George McLeod was the top choice at center. ' It wasn’t until the fifteenth hole that Darby caught his opponent and theii on the sixteenth hole the Farmer golfer shot a birdie-two to take the lead. Darby followed his lead closely defeating Hoff on the. seventeenth and eighteenth holes to turn what looked like a 3-3 tie into a 4-2 victory -for the home team.

Rice’s quarter ran- the event in 3:13 in the Los Angeles Colesium relays last year, and the Oklahoma A&M foursome won the Sugar Bowl rplay las^ New Year’s Day. One Of the closest races In this year’s Olympics is expected in the University division half-mile. The winner of the race may break the formidable record of 1:55.6 set by Wayne Uideout of North Texas State in 1938. ; Rice has twio men * who have come close to that record. Otha Byrd won the Southwest Con ference championship 880 in 1:55.9 last year and teammates Jim Hoff was only a step behind in 1:56 flat. Ortiz Another Possibility Alexander Ortiz of Texas A&M ran the 880 in 1:57 on a slow track in a dual meet with North Texas State last week. Another runner given a good chance of setting an 880 record is Mike Mercado of East Texas State. Only border Olympics field ev«lt record which appears likely to fall is the shot put mark of 46 feet 11 inches. Big George Kadera of Texas A&M, who set the record in 1948, will be back to attempt to break it. Bob Walters of Texas and Vern McGrew of Rice have both jumped higher than the 6 feet 7’/i inches high jump record set by Pete Wat kins of Texas A&M in 1943, hut, neither is expected to go that high this early in the season. Walters Topped World Walters jumped 6 feet 8 3/1G in ches in the Kansas (relays, last year, the highest of any human in the worjd in 1949. Charley ? Parker, the UniVersity of Texas sprint star who holds three border Olympics recorlds and shares another, is rated a good chance of breaking his own 220- yard dash mark of 21.1 seconds which he set last year.
