USC Up Against
A&M, UT and SMU
By CHUCK NEIGHBORS
N Battalion Sports Editor
Three Southwest conference track teams will literally
“stand” against that power of the cinder path, University of
Southern California’s Trojans, in a quadrangular meet Satur
day night in Dallas.
The Aggies, the University of Texas Longhorns and the
Mustangs of Southern Methodist,
will be out to snap the string of
consecutive track victories piled
up by the mighty Trojans.
However, the Trojans of ancient
history were once defeated by an
army which attacked from a wood
en horse, and the modem Trojans
would do well not to enter the Dal
las meet with a complacent “We-
can’t-help-but-win” attitude. The
Southwest conference is known the
nation over as a section of the
country which grows “champion-
breaking”. teams.
Upset Territory
For example, take the rivalry be
tween SMU and Notre Dame and
Texas’ upsets of highly-ranked
teams. The Aggies have added
their share of upsets to the prog
nosticators’ guess lists too. South
ern Cal had better enter Dal-Hi
stadium with a will to win, or
they’ll leave it without a victory.
In solo meets, the three South
west conference teams entered in
the meet might look ridiculous
against mighty USC, but with the
three allied against USC, the Tro
jans are in a meet which will cer
tainly be no breeze for them.
Each of the teams will realize a
financial gain from the meet, as
10,000 persons have paid to see it.
Almost unprecedented in the his
tory of SWC track meets, the
crowd may be the largest ever to
view a quadrangular meet in Texas.
Expenses and Profit
All of the teams will receive
their traveling expenses as a re
sult of the proceeds of the meet
and in addition some profit from
the unexpectedly large ticket sale.
It should be a meet well worth
seeing. The Longhorns’ sprint
teams will be out to lower their
times as will the distance teams
of the Aggies and the Trojans.
SMU will serve in more of an
harrassing role than as a real
point getter.
The way we see it, the Trojans
will wind up with the most points,
with Texas close behind, the Ag
gies in the third slot and SMU
also running.
From Mound To Field
Lou Little Excels
In Either Position
By ERIC MILLER
Battalion Staff Writer
Lou Little, recently switched to
a spot in right field in the Aggie
lineup, has been one of Coach Beau
Bell’s steadiest relief huilers.
Lou proved the wisdom of the
move however, with a two for four
hitting exhibition against Rice
Tuesday.
He began playing ball while in
high school and by his junior year
in Schulenburg high was a start-

ing pitcher. His last two years at
Schulenburg he had a 5 and 2 rec
ord. And playing American Le
gion ball his record climbed to 10-0.
In addition to baseball, Lou
played football, basketball and ran
track. He played end for the
Schulehburg grid squad, forward
in basketball and ran the high
hurdles in track.
Lou’s most exciting moment in
collegiate competition came in
1952, when he hurled a sparkling
two-hitter against the University
of Minnesota Gophers and boosted
the Cadets to a 6-1 win.
During his four years.at A&M,
Lou hasn’t excelled only on the
diamond. During the fall and part
of the spring, while not participat
ing in athletics, Lou is hard at
work in the class room. He has
been a distinguished student four
of his seven semesters at A&M.
Lou’s major is agricultui-al edu
cation. Following graduation May
21, he plans to enter the air force.

A CAMPUS-TO-CAREER CASE 1 HISTORY *
Drcx Wallner, ’52, left'a
trail of work as he whirled
through a year of telephone
training. Here he recalls v,
the variety of his training jobs. »
{Reading time: 36 seconds) i
U
“Training”can really be interesting. I
found that out when I joined A.T. &T.’s
Long Lines Department after getting
my B.A. at Cincinnati and my M.A. at
Michigan in ’52. Long Lines is the
organization specializing in Long Dis
tance communications. I was put in the
training program, and there wasn’t a
dull minute.
“For instance, one of my jobs in the
Traffic Department was estimating the
exact number of calls that would be
placed in a city on Christmas Day. My
estimate was off by only 68 calls! *
“Then in the Plant Department, I
made a study of damage done to a certain
cable. Found out that the most damage
occurred in an area used by hunters.
Some special public relations work
among hunters .helped improve that
situation.
,* “And irTthe Commercial Department,^ j
I helped analyze the communication prob- 1 f
lems of one of the largest textile com- j
panics —it had widespread offices and i
plants. The recommendations made are 1
now in use.
£ “The variety in my training has carried
over to my regular job here in Cincinnati.*
My job is to see that good service is
maintained for private line customers — ,
pipeline and power companies, theater j
TV and the like. Every day is different.'
I “As far as I am concerned. Vve found .
my career.’’^
