The Battalion .... College Station (Brazos County)', Texas Friday, November 2, 1956 PAGE 5 Battles gs Krueger Placed On All-American List By BOB HOOBING THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Stanford tackle Paul Wiggin and Pittsburgh end Joe Walton are examples of the fine crop of All-America line candidates emerging from the penalty-ridden Pacific Coast and maligned East in the current football season. In between the continental extremes, the always-pro- ductive areas boast such outstanding performers as Jim Parker, Ohio State guard, Kentucky tackle Lou Michaels and Jerry Tubbs, the Oklahoma center. But one of the surprising features of the grid campaign just entering the November home stretch has been the wealth of line talent which has risen in the wake of the conference’s Hclampdown on the Pacific Coast. ti|P| The same is true in the East ■where the reputation of the college game has suffered in ■recent years. t John Witte of Oregon State, Dick Day of Washington and John Nisby of the non-conference Col- illcge of the Pacific rate just half |a step behind Wiggin according to the regional Associated Press All- America board in the Far West: From the hard-hit Bruins of ICLA come guard Esker Harris land center Jim Matheny whose brilliant work anchors a forward wall dotted with new, inexperi enced faces. The Southwest offers Baylor guard Bill Glass and tackles Nor man Hamilton of Texas Christian and Charles Krueger of the Texas Aggies. All are standouts. So is tackle Dalva Allen from Houston of the Missouri Valley Conference. Other top linemen include: Ends — Jerry Leahy, Colorado and Bill Floyd, New Mexico A&M. Guards—Jim Martin, Missouri; Ed Brown, Arizona; Wayne Coble, Ok- ! lahoma A&M; Jim Herlocker, Wichita; Lloyd Day, Tulsa.

Hog Cross Country Team In Dual Meet With Aggies STARTING LINKUPS many trips to Kyle Field that the Hogs are under the reins of a dif ferent coach. In ’52 Otis Douglas brought his team to a 31-12 shel lacking at the hands of the Aggies. In 1954 Bowden Wyatt’s confer ence champions slid out alive with “I don’t know whether we’re ready to play or not. And I’ll tell you if we don’t get ready we’ll get whipped.” A&M counters the Razor- backs’ one-two punch of Gerald Nesbitt and Don Christian with the A&M ARKANSAS 388 Marks . . . . LE . ....

If the Porkers can take the lightly-regarded Aggie distance men in Saturday’s meet, chances are they will be in for a showdown later with the Texas cross-country team during the final SWC title contest. “We don’t have a chance of win ning Saturday,” declared Coach Ray Putnam, “We are merely play ing out our schedule for the year and have a good chance to fin ish in last place.” “I’d say Arkansas is probably the number two cross-country team in the Conference,” assert ed the Aggie mentor, “and they’ll have some mighty good boys down here tomorrow.” A Razorback press release con cerned primarily with Saturday’s gridiron activity stated briefly, “Arkansas’ primary chances for success against Texas A&M this weekend appear to be in cross country.” Running for A&M are: Ed Blake; Jack Heald; Robert Mc- Knight; Eddie Bussa; Ronald Kirkpatrick; Bass Redd; and John nie Roberts. ★ FREE! ★ BUY ONE 75c ENCHILLADAS AND GET ANOTHER ONE FREE! ★ Bring Your Buddy ★ Bring Your Wife ★ or — Eat Both Enchilladas Yourself THIS OFFER GOOD ONLY BETWEEN 5 P.M. & 8 P.M., MONDAY, NOV. 5TH THRU FRIDAY, NOV. 9TH SMITTY’S GRILL ★ North Gate ★ EYES EXAMINED GLASSES PRESCRIBED DR.
