derson as Ag-gie track coach.
The Anderson era spanned 3 world wars, 10 Olympiads

that places him among the immortals of the coaching world.

let me start some of their meets,
and you’ll still see me walking
around Kyle Field picking up cin

In an age when heavy prosely

eran coach gave only six four-year
scholarships to high school grad

Colonel Andy gets his talent
from the 100 hoys who fill every
locker in the Aggie dressing room
year after year. The only boys
receiving financial aid in the form
of part scholarships were those
who won points in the conference
meet. An event winner received a
full scholarship the following year,
with a second-place finisher get

“I didn’t believe in going out
and recruiting high school stars

through A&M when I had boys on
my squad who had developed to

as the high school performers,”
Anderson has made v clear to ob

Editor,

It seems that in the past few
days there has been quite an issue
raised on the question of compul
sory or non-compulsory Corps. It
is not the intent of my letter to
voice an opinion on this con
troversial question but to express a
feeling that has long been in my
mind and I am sure, one that has
been in the minds of other Aggies
and profs. I hereby cast my vote
for a co-educatiqnal A&M College,
for the betterment of this school
and the furthering of education at
this college.
