To Beaumont Club
A belief that the limited substi
tution rule would help the A&M
football team next year was ex
pressed by Head Coach Ray
George at the annual schoolboy
football recognition banquet in
Beaumont recently before more
than oOO members of the Beaumont
A&M club.
“The rule came as a surprise
to me as it did a majority of the
coaches,” George said.
“It will create new problems
from the coaching standpoint, and
we will just have to start making
players both offensive and defen
sive in caliber.
‘Need More Time’
“It’s going to be a big job and
we will probably need more spring
training time, at least initially, to
change our old squadmen to double
duty.
The quiet-spoken George, a for
mer Southern California All-
American, congratulated the play
ers of the four all-district teams
present anti their coaches and in-
Spring Training
vited them to visit the Aggie
training sessions at College Sta
tion which start the last week in
February and continue into March.
He gave a rundown of the prob
able team the Aggies would have
next season, stating that the backs
would be good runners and the
line would be fast.
Face Tough Schedule
George pointed out the stiff
schedule the Aggies were to face
and declared that their club would
' be young and aggressive and
would play their best.
Charley Babcock, master of cere
monies, followed Coach George’s
* remarks with the statement that
A&M had played the last season
with only a platoon and a half
and would lose only a half a pla
toon by the new ruling against
the two-platoon system.

Jarrin’ John Kimbrough, groat
Aggio All-American fullback of
1940, now a Haskell,Texas farmer
and rancher, was the colorful fig
ure at the affair. Not only did he
see many of his classmates of a
decade ago, but he was sought by
one delegation after another of
the schoolboy all-district groups to
meet and shake hands.
Kimbrough Speaks
Kimbrough addressed the group
briefly, but directed his remarks
principally to the high school foot
ball players who were the hon-
orees of the occasion.
“A college education is growing
in importance and today is more
important than when I finished
school,” Kimbrough said.
“There is only time to complete
your education and that is when
you are young. And during your
days of schooling, your education
is the most important thing while
in school.
“There will be 7000 more indi
viduals having breakfast for the
first time today. That adds up
to 49,000 persons being added to
the population each week. There
is just so much land and from
that, there must be increased
yield.
“It will be the challenge to you,
as it is to me, to acquire knowl
edge that makes this increased
yield possible and to leave that
heritage of accomplishment to our
children,” he said.
Presents Certificates
John Newton called the district
players to the rostrum where
Coach George presented the certi
ficates of membership on the A&M
dream teams. All-district elevens
were honored from Districts 8-4A,
G-3A, 28-AA and Catholic Dis

15 months in prison and fined $15,-
000 today for federal tax evasion.
With May 4 set as a deadline for
Saigh to clear up his personal af
fairs, and Saigh already on record
as saying, “I will have to dispose
of the Cardinals,” there is not too
much time to spare.
The source said it would be prac
tically impossible to move the
franchise in 1953, if the club were
sold to an outside group.
No Application
In Cincinnati, Presidept Warren
Giles of the National League said
he had received no application
from Saigh for a transfer of own
ership of the Cardinals.
Saigh and the late Robert Han-
negan, former postmaster general,
bought the cards in 1947 from Sam
Breadon for $4,060,800 without us

a St. Louis bank.

DIVISION OF
Chance Vought Aircraft, a designer and builder of military aircraft
for 35 years, offers the graduating engineer and scientist an oppor
tunity to join in the design and manufacture of fighter aircraft and
guided missiles.
The design of fighter aircraft is constantly being improved as new
materials and more powerful engines become available. Guided mis
sile design is in the pioneering stage and progress up to this point, in
our opinion, can be compared to the period of development of piloted
aircraft prior to World War I. Imaginative thinking as well as sound
engineering is an important part of these programs. The young engi
neer through his creative thinking can rapidly assume a position of
engineering responsibility in the Chance Vought organization.
Almost every type of academic specialization can be utilized in
some phase of the design, development and test of a jet fighter or
guided missile. Technical assignments are available in the design and
analysis of specialized electronic components, structural and hydraulic
testing, structural and mechanical design, applied aerodynamics,
power plant analysis and testing, stress and vibration analysis and
flight testing.
If you are receiving a degree in Aeronautical Engineering, Mechani
cal Engineering, Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mathe
matics or Physics, Chance Vought invites you to discuss your future
in these fighter aircraft and guided missile programs. Contact your
Placement Director for an appointment with the Chance Vought
Aircraft representative.
