t suOur squad was reduced by
ake° yesterday after Don Usry,
vho^ - P° un d end, and Doyle Al-
ander, 235-pound fullback,
; he t for different pastures.
bru’ n was a promising freshman
’OnV° was an all-American at Cle-
rne High School.
hatt J SRY HAD ALREADY taken
.jg gi examination to enter West
, int, and received his appointment
XS 3^he Military Academy yesterday,
exander had played two years
football in the Navy. Doyle
lei'gin’t say why he left, but he had
Dtheen complaining of flat feet.
The tempo of Spring drills
pllinked up yesterday as we got our
"st taste of real work—a short
■■it rugged scrimmage under
I emi-game” conditions. The de-
k^ise was not allowed to tackle
mrs ballcarrier, although everything
Hpe was at full speed.
LINEMEN AND backs are di-
ded into teams now and we’re
concentrating on team effort rather
than individual work. Most of the
backs work on timing of offensive
plays and sharpening defensive
maneuvex-s, especially pass defense,
while linemen woi’k on blocking.
Thex-e ai - e six full teams working
out at pi’esent.
We’i’e pi'obably the most patid-
otic team you’ll* see anywhei’e.
Coach Bx-yant has us divided into
three main groups, and each one
wears a diffei'ent coloi'ed jersey,
red, white and blue.
“LITTLE” CHARLIE Krueger,
220-pound “A” team tackle, is
spox-ting a “squirx*el cage,” which
is our name for the big rubber
and plastic-covexed mask he wox*e
yestexday to px-otect his face. His
high cheek bones axe a fine target
for blockex*s and after two days
his face was px*etty bx-uised.
He’s xxot the only one who weax’S
some kind of face pi-otection I
though. We all wear a slender,
but stx-ong, plastic bar acx*oss the
front of our helmets to keep out
any sti*ay fists and feet.

Tracksters Boast
Top U.S. Weightmen
By BARRY HART
Assistant Sports Editor
Picked as strong contenders for
the Southwest Conference track
title, Coach Frank Anderson’s 1955
runner-up team places its hopes
squarely in the hands of perhaps
the strongest weight aggregation
in NCAA history.
“WE HAVE FOUR men that
probably can put the shot a com
bined distance farther than any
four in the world on the same team
at the same time,” said Coach An
derson.
Anderson was speaking of his
prize behemoths, Bobby Jack Gx*oss,
Tom Bonorden, Herman Johnson
and Harry Cox. All except Cox
have heaved the iron ball over 54
feet. Cox has thrown 49 feet and
should break 50 this season.
The Aggies lost 20 valuable
points when Jim Hollingsworth,
winner of the SWC high hurdles
and second in the lows, Harley Har-
tung, low hurdles champion who
took second behind Hollingsworth
in the highs, and Jimmy Synder,
who captui’ed fourth in the 120-
yard hurdles, completed their eli
gibility.
REPLACING THEM are Sam
Nave, Barney Treadway, Homer
Smith and Edward Weeren. They
Lennie Rosenbluth tied a Noi’th
Carolina basketball recoi’d when he
made 45 points against Clemson on
Jan. 14. The Tar Heel star tied the
record set by George Glamack
against Clemson in 1941.
will be joined in the 220-lows by
the Galena Park speedsters, Em
mett Smallwood, who has already
run the distance in 23.0 this sea
son. All five are sophomores.
Bill Holloway, Johnny Roberts
and Robert McKnight return from
the 1955 mile relay team that plac
ed third last year. Replacing Wally
Kleb will be Baytown’s Ed Busse,
thix-d finisher in the freshmen 440.
Winton Thomas leads a fine
group of pole vaulters over the
high bar. Behind Thomas are
James Clark and Lonnie Jackson.
All three have cleai’ed well over
13 feet this year.

OP)—Perennial fii’st-division fin

comebacks in the school’s history
by beating Southern Methodist at

Two-time winners over Axkansas
