Still Potent
Over 109 boys are out and run
ning getting ready for A&M’s
first track meet to be held here
March 7.
“We are somewhat weaker than
last year’s conference champions,
but still a potent aggregation,”
said Col. Frank Anderson veteran
Aggie coach.
Loss of 10 lettermen, including
Olympic high jump champ Walt
“Buddy” Davis, will considerably
weaken this years team Anderson
believes.
But with 14 lettermen back, An
derson says his team will still be
a threat for the school’s fourth
straight SWC title. Olympic run
ner-up Darrow Hooper in the shot,
James Blaine and Dale DeRouen,
distance men and Malcolm Marks
in the valut will see the Cadets
drag down their share of the
points.
Col. Andy figures the team will
be somewhat weaker due to the
fact the sophomores will not quite
offset the loss of the seniors.
Main weaknesses among the Ag
gies thinelads this spring will be
in the high jump and top freshmen
of last year, Garland Coulson, who
was drafted.
The returning 14 lettermen are
James Baker, 440; Blaine, dis
tance; Glenn Blake, hurdles; De-
Rouen, distance; Tom Dollahite,
hurdles and broad jump; Hooper,
shot; Charles Hudgins, distance.
Also returaing are Carol Libby,
shot and 440; Marks, vault; Pete
Mayeaux, javelin; Bog Ragsdale,
broad jump, hurdles and sprints;
Glenn Spradlin, vault; Gerald
Stull, 440 and Edwin Wilmsen.

Crowded conditions will pre
vent spectators from viewing in
tramural wrestling matches, said
Barney Welch, intramural sports
director.
Absence of spectators also will
give the wrestlers a chance to
show their best, since they will
not be under any outside pressure,
continued Welch. Matches must
be held in the Little Gym because
of basketball practice in DeWare
Field House, he. explained.
The gymnastics and weightlift
ing teams also practice in the Lit
tle Gym, contributing to lack of
space for spectators.
In other open intramural sports
—Badminton, golf, and tennis—
schedules have not been complet
ed.
A tournament for singles and
doubles in badminton will be held
at night. An open golf and tennis
tournament will be held in April
and May.
