Defending: champion A&M em
barks Friday for the Corpus Chris-
ti Quarterback Relays where the
Cadets will again-vie with Texas
, and Rice for tratk and field hon
ors.
This meet, which is sponsored
by the Corpus Quarterback Club,
is the equivalent of what was for-
m'erly the Little Conference Meet
since it involves the three teams
that usually finish first, second,
, and third in the SWC meet.
Th(? Aggies won last year by
quite va margin since two of Texas.’
fop sprinters were out with pulled
< . muscles. On the basis of meets to
* date, the Cadets are favored to
take this or^e again by a close
margin over TU.
Giant George Kadera is favored
in the' shot and discuss for A&M
and Ray Marek of Texas and Tobin
Rote of Rice are expected to fight
it out in the javelin.
' x ' Ag Vaulters Favored ,»
The Aggie pole vault twosome.
Jack Simpson and Don Graves,
should top Texas’ Bob Walters,
but Walters and Vern McGrew
of Rjce are expected to battle in
the high jump with Buddy Davis
and Graves close behind. Meeks
and Johnson of TU and Grawunder
i of Rice are top contenders in the
broad jump with A&M entries
in! this event being J. TV'Weber
artd Glenn Lippman. j
Charley Parker and Perry Sam-
yels of L Texas are sprint favor
ites jvith Red Brown of Rice
closet behind. Texas should; take
tho 440 relay with Rice again sec
ond.
Probably the best race of the
evening will be the 440 dash. Tom
Cox, of Rico and Don Mitchell of
A&M will tangle in this one a,hd
the record of 47.8 may fall.

Mitchell was clocked. In 47.0 or

Otha Byrd' end^JIm Hoff of
Rice are defending 8WC chamn-
iorf and runner*up respectively In
the 880, but TU's Lowell Hawkin*

best half mile bets. Alex Orti* and

half-milers entered are Clifford

J. D. Hampton is the odds-On
choice in the mile and two-mile and
the Cadets could easily make a
clean sweep in the mile with Jul
ian Herring and John Garmanjy.
Dick Brooks of Texas is the nejet
best miler. Behind Hampton in the
two-mile will be Bobby Whiseh-

Hurdles A&M Events \
The hurdles look like Aggie
events' again with Paul Leming
favored in the highs and Bob Hall
in the lows. Billy Bless may push
Hall in the lows, along with Lean

in the.highs this week.
Rice looks like the class in tijpl

To Buffs with Miscues
By CHUCK CABANISS
Too many charity passes to first
base and poor base*running marred
an otherwise fine performance of
the Cadets aa they dropped a 10-
inning tilt to Houston, 4-6, yes
terday afternoon on Kyle Field.
The Bayou City’s AA Texas
League Buffs were outhit by the
Maroons six to eight, but the pro
fessional nine tallied two runs in
the tenth frame to break-up the
tight contest. Zernia’s home run af
ter Czaplekski had been issued a
base on balls provided the Houston
club with its twb-run- margin.
Ag starter Bruce Morisse was
charged with the loss despite the
shortness of his mound duty. The
Nordheim hairier was derricked
after walking the first four bat
ters to face him.
With one .man already given free
passage home, Sam Blanton took
over the hurling chores and walked
the .fifth player to enter the bat
ter’s box for Houston, forcing a
second run home. Starting Buff
first-sacker Kellert drove in a
third run before Blanton retired
the side. For the remainder of
the clash Blanton’s pitching was
superlative.
Ag Rallies Fail
Aggie uprisings in both the ninth
and tenth innings threatened to
reclaim the win, but fell shy of the
needed scores. Veteran Houston
relief hurler Stevens ended the
game by setting down long ball
hitteri Herschel i Maltz and Wally
Moon while a trjio of Cadet base-
runners waited expectantly 011 the
loaded sacks. -
After Yale Lajry was Waved out
on strikes to open the bottom of the
tenth, A1 Ogletree waited out a
walk, us did pinch-hitter Guy Wal
lace, making hid first appearance
of; the campaign.1 The next* batter,
Joe Ecrette, was safe on first when
the Buff baseman failed to tag
him after fielding a dribbling
bounder down the first base line.
It was at this point that Ste
vens relieved tip; tirin* bayou
moundsman Hahp, and,Jljalts pop

knocked a ground ball to the
mound for an easy third out /
Moon Ties Score
A&M had tied the fray up in the
ninth when Moon singled, Shug
McPherson was walked, and John]
DeWitt sacrificed to move the run
ners to second jsnd third.
The next man up. Hank Candelr
ari, attempted to sacrifice—and did
squeeze Moon heme for the tying
tally. But the former Jeff Davis
star was credited with a single
rather than a sacrifice when the
Buffs left the initial bag unguard
ed and allowed him to make the
sack safely.
However, the rally was ended
abruptly as McPherson was caught
in a rundown between third and
home following Moon’s success
ful move home. Then to top off the
'‘baek - firing" Candalai i was
thrown out when ht attempted to
steal second just as M cPherson
was successfully rap'd own and

From the dawn of human intelligence to
the present, man has divided the day into

natural development, because time is the
essence of human life.
At first, the passing of dajf’s. was marked
by the sun, moon, and stars. Then m@n in
vented mechanical timekeepers — the sun
dial, the hour glass, the first crude clock.
Eventually our present highly-perfected
time keeping system was evolved.
Because man’s life is measured in hours
and days and years, it is Important that he
put into each of these, the greatest amount
„of good he can; for life passes swiftly.
