Thursday, March 31, 1953 THE BATTALION ~~ Page 3 Cadets Figure To Place in Five Events at Relays By JERRY WIZIG Battalion Sports Editor! Some good showing in the field and distance events, but, barring an upset, no first places—that’s the Aggie outlook for this week end’s Texas Relays in Austin. Best chance for an A&M vic tory is in the shot put, where Herman Johnson and Tom Bonor- den figure for a 2-3 finish be tween them. But track coach Frank Anderson yesterday point ed to the four-mile relay as an event in which the Cadets also may finish in the money, say third or fourth. Bill Cocke, Bob Boles, John Whitwell and Verlon Westmore land will run it. The discus, pole vault and high jump are other spots where A&M figures to score. Kansas and Oklahoma A&M are favored to battle for first, with the Uni versity of Texas third. “There isn’t a first place slated over there for us,” Anderson said yesterday, just before persuad ing footballer Jack Pardee to come out for track. “Our best chance to place is in the four mile relay, but I think Johnson and Bonorden have a good chance in the shot put for second and third, or thii'd and fourth.” Pardee and Gene Henderson, another football player, were throwing the javelin, a weak spot for the Cadets this year, when Anderson spotted them. He watched while Pardee reached about 171 feet on one toss, farther than any A&M mark in competition this year, in street clothes, then invited him out for the team. When last seen, the two were headed to the locker room to get Pardee a track uniform. Kansas’ Bill Neider has reach ed 53-10% in the shot, while Johnson has tossed 53-1 in prac tice. Bobby Gross, who won the event last year with 52-8% for the fifth straight Aggie win in BATTALION WANT AD RATES One day 2^ per word Two days 3^ per word Three days Third day Free Four days 5^ per word Five days 6^ per word Ten day 11^ per word Minimum charge—30£ DEADLINES 5 p.m. day before publication Classified Display 70^ per column inch each insertion PHONE 4-5324 For Sale 1954 Austin Healey (100) 9000 miles.

Pole vaulter Winton Thomas, a 6-4 sophomore who pushed Rice’s Stephen James to 13-11 here, better than the Southwest conference mark, is another of the Aggies rated a good chance to finish high. Anderson said he didn’t know how much Thomas might im prove by his senior year. “I’ve been wrong too many times before to predict, but I’d be tickled to death with a 15 foot jump some day,” he said with a smile. In addition to James, however. Thomas will face the nation’s best 1954 vaulter, Earl Poucher of Florida. Poucher cleared 14- 7%. Jim Graham and Joe Springer of Notre Dame, both of whom have bettered 14 feet, also are due to enter.
