ment in Brazos county, headed by

President Ray Oden appointed

purpose of implementing this ex
panded program:

Fugate, Ran Boswell, and Hd Gar
ner; Field preparation and sod
ding, Marion Pugh, Barney Welch,
Spike White, and T. E. McAfee;

Committee on Sportsmanship
Awards, (designed to encourage
good conduct by players, managers,

Welch, Chairman, Spike White, and
Marion Pugh.
The Little League program Is
currently obtaining its finances
from four principal sources, 1. the
sponsors’ fees, 2. the sale of fence
signs in the parks, 3. the px-ofits
from the operations of the conces
sion stands at the games, 4. and
the passing of the “kitty” at the
games, the last affords supportei-s
of the game an opportunity to par
ticipate financially that is not oth-
ex-wise available.
It is the anticipated revenue from
the last thx-ee sources will be used
to build and maintain the new
parks. Sponsox-s’ fees ax-e used
to purchase uniforms and play
ing equipment. Last, year mox-e
than 100 bats and more than 500
baseballs in the major leagues
alone.
Each new park is expected to
cost appx-oximately $1500, and is
to include dugouts, fence, backstop
and two small sections of bleachers.
It is anticipated that a pi-ess box,
scoi’e boai-d, public address system,
a concession stand, and additional
bleachei's can be added in the fu-
tux-e.
The 1954 teams, sponsor's and
managers of the four College Sta
tion major teams are:
White Sox, Marion Pugh Lum
ber Company, Herbei't Thompson.
Red Sox, Vetei'ans of Foreign
Wars Post, Jack Fugate, x-epx-esen-
tative, manager to be named.
Senators, Student Co-Op, Wayne
Smith.
Orioles, Black’s Pharmacy, Cai’l
Kuykendall.
The officers of the local league
are as follows: Ray Oden, presi
dent; Don Vestal, vice-president;
and T. E. McAfee, Seci'etary-Treas-
ui'ei'.
Participating in the minor league
program in College Station last
season wei'e four teams, made up
of approximately 80 players from
8 to 12 years of age. The two
local major league teams last sea
son had a total of 24 boys in uni
form, and had 12 boys in the “re-
sex-ves,” but which in all cases play
ed with the minors when not need
ed to fill temporary vacancies on
the major teams. Thus approxi
mately 105 boys participated in the
College Station program last yeaiv
In the expanded progi'am, there
will be 15 instead of 12 boys in
uniform on each of the four teams,
and aagin approximately 80 minor
leaguex-s, or a total of 140 to 150
boys in the pi’ogi'am.
The minor league px-ogram, lo
cally, is sponsox-ed by service clubs
and the Recreatkm Council, which

A ih letic Council—
‘Field Wide Open 9
The Texas A&M Athletic Council
said last night after a 12-hour
session it had not yet decided on a
new Aggie football coach and “the
field is wide open.”
Indiana Football Coach Bernie
Ci'immins was interviewed Wednes
day fox - the vacancy at Texas A&M.
Although Aggie officials at
tempted to keep seci’et the fact that
Ci'immins was on the campus, the
woi'd leaked out.
Crimmins spent moi'e than an
hour with the Texas A&M athletic
council. Others intei’viewed wei’e
Line Coach Mike Michalske and
Asst. SMU Coach Dick Todd, a for
mer Aggie great. Todd had said
he wasn’t intei'estcd in the coaching
job at A&M but he spent moi'e time
with the council than etiher of the
other two men.
Crimmins’ 1953 team lost seven
of nine games. The Hoosiers beat
Noi'thwestei’n for their only Big
Ten victory and they edged out
Marquette by one point.
The Associated Press reported
from College Station that Texas
A&M officials, ti’ying to name a
successor to Ray George, indicated
that they had narrowed the field
to foui', including Michalske, then
three candidates wiped their names
off the most-likely board.
J. V. Sikes, ex-Kansas coach,
gi’abbed up the job at East Texas
State. He was on his way to an

intei’view with Aggie officials.
Johnny Vaught of Mississippi with
drew by telephone. He said he
didn’t feel the job would be an
improvement over Mississippi. Dick
Todd, SMU backfield coach, said
he wanted no part of the job. He
said illness and business kept him
from entei'ing the candidate’s field.
Todd, nevei’theless, was inteiwiewed
Wednesday.
Texas A&M has been in the
coaches’ market practically since
the season ended. Fii'st there was
rumor that the alumni was dis
satisfied with Geoi'ge’s x'ecord.
Then thei'e was the usual denial.
Then George x'esigned. The hunt
was on.
Dean W. L. Penberthy, the coun
cil chaii'man, said:
“No decision has been I'eached by
this time as to the person to be
x-ecommended as head football
coach. The council is going to con
tinue interviews. The field is wide
open.”
Penberthy said other pi’ospects
will be interviewed. He didn’t say
who.
“Thei’e is a chance the council
will meet next week,” if interviews
can be ai'i'anged,” he declared.
“Spi'ing training vei'y probably
will be delayed beyond Feb. 15.”
