Broussard is considered one of the future greats of the
Southwest conference. He loves to play and revels in handing
out crunching blocks and tackles.
Fred’s linebacking has been the talk of the area’s sports-
writers and coaches.
Easley’s tremendous power and speed have earned him
many compliments. Time after time this season, he has bulled
through the line for good gains with tacklers draped over
him. Some fans have voiced the opinion that if he were used
more, Bob would soon earn himself a place on the all-con
ference team. Both Broussard and Easley are sophomores.
Little can be said about Ellis that hasn’t been said al
ready. He is the boy that makes the Aggie offense click, he
is the player most responsible for A&M’s success this season.
Don is a skinny 170 pounder without a football uniform
on. But when he steps out on the field and takes the snap

urgent...repair quickly.
Gale winds ripped through Alabama and Georgia last spring, de
stroying 500 homes, leaving 2000 homeless, killing and injuring 382.
Thousands of telephones were out of order—hundreds of poles
damaged and destroyed. Communications had to be restored quickly-
They were I Here’s how:
1. Engineering teams rushed to the stricken area. In hours, they
determined material and men needed to restore service.
2. Based on these reports, equipment —as far off as Chicago and
New York—began rolling toward the area.
3. Telephone crews arrived from as far away as Atlanta and Bir
mingham-engineering and accounting forces, construction, cable ;
testing and repair teams. . ' -
4. Red Cross, hospital and other essential installations were rushed.
5. The public was informed of progress by daily newspaper and
radio releases.
Result: in 3 days, Columbus, Georgia—which suffered TO million
dollars property damage—had half its out-of-order telephones work
ing and Long Distance service nearly normal. In another 3 days
substantially all service had been restored.
Planning and co-ordination among many telephone people with
a variety of skills made this quick recovery possible. It illustrates
vividly the teamwork typical of Bell System men and women.
There’s room on this team for a wide range of college graduates —
business and liberal arts, as well as engineering. Plan for your future
by getting details now about job opportunities in the Bell System.
Your Placement Officer has them.
