A Infantry and B Athletics ad
vanced into the second round of
the Intramural Cage playoffs and
firmly established themselves as
the favorites to meet in the finals
with their respective wins over A
Seniors and F AF last night in
DeWare Field House.
The infantrymen mauled the sen
iors of A Company by the score of
30-3. Ed Moses was the deciding
factor in the Infantry win over the
Seniors. His field generalship and
12 points made him the outstand
ing player of the night plus high

The Infantry built a 7-0 lead in
the first half and continued to
move at a fast clip in the second
half.
Moses opened the scoring in the
second half by dropping in a long

At halftime the Athletes had

off a determined airmen team in
the second half to preserve the
win.
Hal Douglas opened the scoring
for the winners in the second half
with a field goal to bring the
score to 12-4. Gonzales lessened the
margin with two fast field goals

Benton Musslewhite
Ben White
Dick Hightower
Mustang Stars Boast Good
Records; Out To Sink Ags
Ben White of the Mustangs is
one of the main reasons for Fred
Benners passing record being so
outstanding.
Starting this season with a 1950
record of 468 yards gained on pass
es caught, White has been the. ob
ject of many of Benners’ passes in
this year’s games as he runs from
his end slot.
White can also boast four of the
passes he caught last year were
run over for touchdowns.
A senior from San Antonio,
White is 6 ft. 4 inches and weighs
in at 205 pounds. His pass snatch
ing is rated as sensational, and he
is creddited with 13 passes caught
this year and 196 yards gained on
these passes received.
Benton Musslewhite
One of the leading pass receivers
in the conference, Benton Mussle
white caught three passes against
Texas last week for a gain of 24
yards. One of these passes he
caught ended with an addition of
six points to the Mustang score.
For the season’s record so far,
Musselwhite is credited with 18
catches for 258 yards, two of these
touchdown passes. His average
yards gained on passes caught
stands at 14.3.
In last years games, Mussle-
Avhite also proved he could rush

QUESTION: When I go into the Armed
Forces will I be covered by Government
insurance ?
ANSWER: Yes. Under the terms of the
new law, passed last April, every person
who is called to active duty for a period
of It days but not more than 80 days is
insured against death from any cause for
tho period of his service, and every person
called to active duty for a period of more
than 30 days is insured for the period of
his service plus 120 days thereafter. The
principal amount of the insurance is
$10,000 and it is payable to the beneficiary
in only one way: $92.90 per month for
a period of 120 months.
The insurance is free for the time stated,
it may be kept, on a premium-payment
basis, after the serviceman’s release from
a period of active duty of more than 30
days, but only on a 5-year term basis. The
latter means that the premium rate in
creases every 5 years and that the policy
never has any loan values or paid-up
values. The law also states that no divi
dends, will ever be paid on the policy. . ,
The premium rate at age 25 is $2.R0 per
month for the $10,000; at 30 is $3.20: at
35 is $4.30: at 40 is $5.80; at 50 is $11.90;
at 60 is $26.00 ; and at 70 is $58.70. . ,
In the case of the man who suffers
disability of 10% or more as a result of
his service with the Armed Forces, it is
provided that he may purchase a policy
on some permanent plan rather than on
the 5-year term basis.
NOTE: Any questions on life insurance
from A&M College students will be an
swered in this column or through direct
communication by Eugene Rush. Address
yoilr questions to him at Ilox 1211, or call
him at 44666, or see him in his office
above the Aggielanfl Pharmacy.
