Bobby Gross’ final five points
and the surprise finish of Bobby
Robinson in Saturday’s triangular
track meet were the straws that
broke the back of UT to give the
Aggies their first track win of
this season over the Longhorns
72 Va to 71.
The Aggies were behind an
points until the last field event, the
discus. Gross’ toss won that event
and the meet for Col. Frank An
derson’s Aggie track team.
In a surprise finish, the Aggies’
Bobby Robinson passed Rice’s
James (Popeye) Beavers in the
running broad jump to give A&M
five points they didn’t expect to
have in pre-meet pi'edictions. Rob
inson is a sophomore from Bryan.
He attended S.F. Austin high
school in Bryan.
Harley Hartung was the second
Aggie to add 10 points to the meet
total with his dual victories in the
hurdles. He won the highs in 14.5
and the lows in 23.6.
Dean Smith, the Longhoin’s top
sprinter, finished the 100 yard dash
in the near-record time of 9.4 sec
onds and anchored the sprint relay
team that ran a 41.1. Three timers
ta the finish of the 100 clocked
Smith at 9.35, but a ruling which
disallows half-seconds, prevented
them from using this time.
Charley Thomas, UT’s other top-
aaotch dash man, i’an the 220 in a
sparkling 20.6. Splinters were
assisted by a gusty 12 mile an hour
tail wind. v
In the mile, Dale DeRouen and
James Blain of A&M ran a dead
heat to split fii'st place honors in
that event. During the course of
the I'ace, UT’s Don Neighbors
’forced both DeRouen and Blaine
off the track one or more times
with his rough tactics.
In the freshman division, the
Rice Owlets were first with 59
points, the UT Shorthoins were
second with 43 and the Fish
brought up the rear with 35.

IT S ALL A MATTER OF TASTE
When you come right down to it, you
who smokes a lucky Strike smoke for one simple reason... enjoy-
Is really . j- ment. And smoking enjoyment is all a

matter of taste. Yes, taste is what counts
in a cigarette. And Luckies taste better.
Two facts explain why Luckies taste
better. First, L.S./M.F.T.—Lucky Strike
means fine tobacco ... light, mild, good
tasting tobacco. Second, Luckies are ac
tually made better to taste better..,
always round, firm, fully packed to draw'
freely and smoke evenly.
So, for the enjoyment you get from
better taste, and only from better taste,
Be Happy-Go Lucky. Get a pack or a
carton of better-tasting Luckies today.
