Manhandling Texas and Rice for their
13th straight win, the raging Texas Aggie
tracksters piled up 101 points to 58 for the
Steers and 11 for the Owls.
, Winning 10 firsts as expected and 11 sec
onds, the Farmers were shut out in only the
* 100 and 220 where they have yet to find a
capable performer. The Longhorns took 1, 2,
« 3, in these events. The Cadets also scored
at least 5 points in every other event except
'the javelin and the 440 relay where4-
they garnered a second in each
case.
Led by the high point man of the
meet, Chaxdey Thomas, who won
the 100 and 220 in fine times of
.9.9 and 21.5 against a 10 mile wind
and anchored the winning 440 re
lay, Texas won the javelin and both
hurdles for six firsts which shut
Rice out of the win column alto
gether. In fact the highest Owls
were able to place was a second in
A the 2-mile.

Taking first place in all events, A&M’s
swimming team splashed out an easy 66-9
victory over Texas Tech here Saturday.
Swimming under inter-scholastic instead
of inter-collegiate rules, which calls for short
er distances to be swum and limits the num
ber of events, which any swimmer may enter.
Tech could only win three second places while
placing third in the other six events.
One race, the 440 yard individual medley,
-♦-was eliminated by the rule change.
Aggie Van Adamson is the man
who usually swims this event, but
in its absence he swam his other
specialty, the 100 yard individual
medley, which he won in 1:02.8.
In the opening event, the 50 yard
freestyle, Burt Koegl captured first
place honors with a time of 25.9.
Second place was won by A&M’s
Carrol Jones in 26.9 while Tech’s
Davis came in third with 28.4.
The first Red Raider second place
win came in the second event, the
100 yard breaststroke. Street’s
time of 1:16.8 was second best to
Farmer Rick Black’s winning time
of 1:09.4. Paul Walling came in
two seconds later for the Aggies
only third place with a time of
1:19.1.
Cadet John Parnell beat out
teammate Marvin Seth in the 200
yard freestyle with 2:19. Seth
touched the finish seconds later at
2:27.2, eight seconds better than
Tech’s third place Kain with 2:36.5.
Sherwin Rubin windmilled to an
Aggie victory in the 100 yard
backstroke in 1:12.1. John Broker
tallied three more points for A&M
with second place time of 1:16.3, as
Tech’s Morris took another third
place with 1:25.1.
The fifth event found James
Skelton of A&M finishing the 100
yard freestyle in first place with
1:01 while Paul Wottring grabbed
number two honors for the Ca
dets in 1:04.7. Witcher of the
Raiders was close behind Wottring
