Summer Campers Report
Beating the Heat
Cadets Main Job
By ROBERT LEE WOODY
Camp Correspondent
The Valley of the Sun has once
again welcomed the visiting Air
Force ROTC cadets from the
Southwest. Their ‘ reception* has
been friendly and somewhat warm
. . . better than 110 degrees!
The location of . this camp is
Williams A.F.B., 35 miles south
east of Phoenix, Arizona. The
base is known locally as “Willie
Air Patch.” It is a jet fighter
training school and is soon to in
clude a gunnery school. The camp
commander is Air Force Colonel
Russell W. Peters.
From the seven schools repre
sented at camp there are 194 ca
dets, fifty of which are Texas Ag
gies. There ai-e about 30 cadets
from Baylor University, Texas
University, East Texas State
Teachers College, and the Univer
sity of New Mexico. Single rep
resentatives came from Universi
ties of Rochester and Illinois.
The first week’s cadet officers
included Aggies John Martin ’53,
flight commander, and Jack Jowell
Street Named To
Head Committee
Prof. W. E. Street, head of the
A&M Engineering Drawing De
partment, has been appointed
chairman of the National Commit
tee on Evaluation of Engineering
Education for the 1953-54 school
year.
He has just returned from the
annual meeting of the American
Society for Engineering Educa
tion held in Gainesville, Florida.
He presented the report of the
committee on Evaluation of Engi
neering Drawing Education for 25
years hence to the Drawing Divis
ion of the ASEE. The report was
placed in the hands of the commit
tee headed by Dr. L. E. Griner in
Api'il of this year.
Professor Street also attended
the executive committee meeting of
the Drawing Division while in Flor
ida. He has been a member of this
committee for five years.
Camera Club Plans
Picture Clinic Here
The A&M Camera Club invites
all shutter fans in the community
to attend a snapshot clinic to be
conducted Tuesday in the Social
Room of the Memorial Student
Center at 7:30.
A three-man panel composed of
Allan Brown, Perry Click, and Ron
Logan will discuss the mistakes
most commonly made at the snap
shot level, and example . pictures
will be projected during the dis
cussion in order to illustrate these
faults.
’53 and Malcolm Marks ’53, flight
sergeants. For the coming week
John Ginn ’54 is Sgt. Major. Bob
by Woody ’5? is one of the two
squadron .commanders. Flight
commanders will be Bill Reed ’54,
Gus Wulfman ’54, and John Win-
bery ’54. Richard Griffin ’51 was
to be cadet colonel for next week
but was relieved of his command
after 39 minutes of duty for being
late to a bed check.
Reveille isn’t till 5 o’clcok, the
day’s schedule is so close and tir
ing that the 9 p.m. taps is gener
ally appreciated. Though the food
is wholesome, the general opinion
is that the food at school will be
more appreciated next year.
Besides the fifty cadets from
A&M, there is estimated to be half
that many more ex-Aggies that
are attending camp from the oth
er schools.
Everyone had enjoyable trips to
camp and the majority of the Ag
gies came via some part of Mexico.
One minor mishap occurred when
Willie Kopecky ’54 received minor
burns as he removed the cap
from the pressure radiator of his
automobile.

Texas Is The Usual Threat
By HAROLD V. RATLIFF
Associated Press Sports Writer
No matter who’s leading a golf
tournament, the first question that
conies to mind is: “What’s Hogan
doin ? The little man of golf’s
great moments always is the stan
dard by which you judge.
In the Southwest Conference
football the University of Texas
occupies the same position. In
variably, some team other than
Texas is made the favoiite but the
first question is: “How about Tex
as?”
This year you hear of Baylor and
its great backfield and Rice with
its senior team. But those who
would expert on the coming race
are more interested in the siuation
at the State university.
Undoubtedly, Texas faces the
biggest rebuilding job since World
War II. Thei'e were a lot of sen
iors on the Texas squad that crush
ed Tennessee in the Cotton Bowl
Jan. 1. It was a great team, too.
From that squad 17 lettermen,
including 14 starters (offense and
defense), are gone. Seven of those
fellows were All-Conference. Tex
as set a new record for rushing and
also for total offense. But 79
per cent of the rushing total and
97 per cent of the passing yardage
have been lost.
Only one ball-carrier who gained
as much as 10 yards in varsity
competition—Billy Quinn—returns.
And there isn’t a passer who thi’ew
as many as 10.
The 1953 Longhorn team will re
semble closely the 1947 Texas out
fit which lost four games by a to
tal of 10 points and three in con
ference play by four.
It isn’t to be wondered that Bay
lor and Rice, with their veteran
outfits, are being projected as the
favorites.
But the nucleus back from the
1952 squad is top flight and Texas
has a great sophomore crop. And
more in favor of the Longhorns
as compared to Baylor and Rice is
the fact that under the double
duty system that will come this
year with abandonment of the two-
platoon system, Texas appears bet
ter equipped. Most of the sopho
mores are boys who played double
duty in high school.
Texas looked good in one platoon
football in spiing training. Carl
ton Massey, Gilmer Spring, Phil
Branch, Howard Moon and Quinn
of the returning varsity are capa
ble of top double-duty performance.
Key men of 1953 will include Mas
sey, who may be the finest end
Texas ever has had and you must
remember that the Longhorns have
had more All-Americans at this
position than other spots combined
in the past 12 years. Other key-
men will be Quinn, who could be
the greatest back in the. confer
ence; Buck Lansford, one of the
finest tackles, and Branch, a great
guard.
These starters return: Lansford,
offensive tackle; Banch offensive
guard; Quinn, offensive back;
Charles Petrovich, defensive tack
le; Clifford Polk, defensive tackle,

and Don McGraw, offensive guard.
McGraw didn’t begin the campaign
as a starter but he was in late in
the season.
The positions Texas must fill
are quarterback, center and full
back. Spring training didn’t pro
duce just what Coach Ed Price
wanted but leading contenders are
Bunny Andrews, the most exper
ienced man at quarterback; Leigh
ton Younger, a sophomore last year
who didn’t letter at center, and
Dougal Cameron or Ed Kelley, who
were defensive halfbacks, for the
fullback post.
Actually, Texas expects to be
better on defense although it’s dif
ficult to picture a better defense
than the one that sopped Tennessee
like a rock in a creek in the Cotton
Bowl. The reason is that there will
be more experience. Really, the
only defensive men lost were Bill
Georges, the terrific end, and Har
ley Sewell, a guard of All-Ameri
can caliber. But there are plenty
of boys back with the promise of
the ability of Georges and Sewell.
The sophomore crop is heavy on
good backs—Delano Womack of
Austin, who averaged 10.1^ yards
per carry in 24 tries as a fresh 1 -
man; Joe Youngblood, who did 6.5;
Chester Simick, a 1951 freshman
who was scholastically ineligible
last year; Pat Tolar, the fine quar
ter-back from San Antonio; Char
ley Brewer, Lubbock’s gifted field
general, and Dick Miller of Cle
burne, who was held out of com
petition last season because Texas
had T. Jones at quarterback. Mil
ler was better than any of the
quarterbacks in spring drills. And
there are some excellent sophomore
linemen—Herbert Gray of Bay-
town, Langford Sneed of Level-
land, Menan Schrivwer of New
Braunfels and Johnny Tatum, who
was all-tate at Lubbock.
