CS Swim Club Again Falls Short
Of State AAU Championship In SA
Texas Tech
Diminishing
Faces
Hope
LUBBOCK—Although the Texas
Tech Red Raiders are being given
virtually no chance of beating
either A&M or Baylor this year,
they have one ally—precedent.
History shows that in the five
previous years Tech has played
two Southwest Conference teams
in Lubbock the same season, the
Red Raiders have won at least one
of the games.
Before Coach DeWitt Weaver and
his Raiders gain to much solace
from that, however, it could be
pointed out that those five Tech
teams never met a pair as rugged
as the Aggies and the Bears, cur
rently picked one-two in the con
ference race.
In 1932, for example, the Raid
ers won a pair in Lubbock, over
fifth place Baylor 14-2 and sixth
place Southeim Methodist 6-0.
Second place Baylor was 13-0
victim in 1933, but Tech faltered
before sixth-finisher SMU 14-0.
Another split was chalked up in
1934, Tech winning from cellarite
Baylor 14-7 but bowing to runner-
up Texas 12-6. Bohn Hilliard pro
vided the difference with the long
est run from scrimmage in South
west Conference history, a 94-yard
scamper.
You Can’t Lose
When You
Trade At
LOU’S
Tech broke even a third time, in
1942, edging Texas Christian, third
in the conference, 13-6 but losing
to Baylor, fourth, 14-7. Another
long run featured in the outcome,
a 91-yard punt return by the
Bears' Bill Coleman.
In 1945, the last year Tech en
tertained two SWC teams, the
Raiders defeated TCU, fifth that
season, 12-Q, but were held to a
tie by sixth place Baylor, 7-7.
Tech meets A&M Sept. 28 and
Baylor Oct. 29. The Raiders also
play Arkansas, in Little Rock Nov.
23.
A&M’s and Baylor’s strength
may offset history, but despite
talk of the clean sweep by the op
ponents the games are causing
some smiles around Tech. Business
manager Jimmie Wilson is down
to the end zone for the A&M con
test and is selling tickets on the
10-yard line to the Baylor game.

Second And Third Place
But Fail To Qualify For
By MAURICE OLIAN
College Station Swim Club-—
rapidly becoming the “bridesmaid”
of Texas aquatic gatherings—again
placed high in the team standings
last week-end but could not muster
quite enough points to capture the
squad championship at the State
AAU Swimming Championships in
San Antonio.
As they have done so often pre
viously this summer, Coach Art
Adapison’s tankers scored heavily
with second and third places in the
individual and relay events to
finish third in the team standings
at the two-day meet.
Although failing to grab a single
first place, the College Station
Swim Club—with 53 points in the
men’s division and 39 tallies in the
women’s division — racked up a
healthy total of 92 points, falling
behind San Antonio (a sum of 136
markers) and the Spring Branch
Dads’ Club (122 over-all points).
Odessa, fourth in the combined
standings, won the men’s division
with 70 points. San Antonio finish
ed second in this classification with
59 points, only six more than Col
lege Station.
In the women’s division, the
Dads’ Club captured first thanks to
their 120 tallies, and San Antonio’s
77 points placed in front of the
locals.
Local swimmers placed second
six times in the state-wide affair,
finished third on five occasions, and
came in fourth in a quintet of
events.
Eileen Cossani took second place
in the women’s 220 yard freestyle
and also in the women’s 440 yard
freestyle.
Orlando Cossani placed third in
the men’s 220 yard breast stroke,
third in the men’s 440 yard in
dividual medley^ and second in the
men’s 110 yard butterfly.

HOW
ABOUT
YOU?
It’s always safer to reach instead of run
when the telephone rings . . . and this is
particularly true when you are busy in
the kitchen.
With the telephone handy a mother
can take care of her baking and the baby,
and talk to a friend at the same time. Her
kitchen telephone is one of the greatest
everyday conveniences in her home.
Check with our business office for full
information on the low cost of a kitchen
telephone. We have them available in a
wide variety of colors . . . there’s sure
to be one that will add a striking note of
beauty to your kitchen.
