The Battalion College Station (Brazos County), Texas
Pulverizing Crow
Unanimous Choice
DALLAS, Oct. 31 (AP)—Looking- for an All-America?
Don’t need to go any farther than Texas A&M College with
its John Crow.
That’s the opinion of the regional All-America board
which has voted unanimously for the halfback of the Texas
Aggies, who can find more ways to beat somebody than there
Friday, November 1, 195?

are lives to a cat.
The board, listing its first
candidate for the A11-America
team from the Southwest Con
ference, thinks Crow, the 210-
pounder who pulverizes lines be
cause “I like to run over people”
and comes up with the big defensive
play, should get a backfield spot
without argument.
But the All-America crop in the
Southwest Conference is bigger
than usual, mostly because of the
league’s great showing nationally.
Light now Texas A&M is the No. 1
team in the nation and the confer
ence has an outstanding intersec
tional record.
The board likes Buddy Dial,
Rice’s pass - receiving wingman;
Gerald Nesbitt, Arkansas’ full
back; Charley Krueger, the Texas
A&M tackle, and Roddy Osborne,
A&M’s unorthodox quarterback
who excels at making bad plays
work.
Crow and Krueger were prom
inent contenders for All-America
last year and Nesbitt also had his
backers.

The best way to figure college
football this season, it appears, is
to take the underdog with points
and go for broke. So here goes
the egg money!
Arkansas over Texas A&M —
Sure, the Aggies are No. 1 and
eatin’ high off the Hog, but these
Razorbacks can be tough Porkers.
Michigan .over Iowa—There’s no
such thing as a “favorite” in a
Big 10 game. Everybody starts
even every Saturday.
Navy over Notre Dame — The
Middies and Tom Forrestal could
forestall the luck of the Irish.
Wisconsin over Michigan State
-—The way these two clubs miss
conversions, this one could be a
tie.
Georgia Tech over Duke—This
is a vote from the old school,
where they taught you never to
bet against Bobby Dodd.
Marquette over College of Pa
cific—Well, they have to win some
time, don’t they ?
Oklahoma ovec Kansas State—
Whaddya want ? Blood ?

Cadets Seek Quickness
Arkansas’s 1956 Offense Leader
Don Christian, 6-1, 185-pound quarterback from Searcy,
Ark., was the total offense leader for the Razorbacks a
year ago. Now a second-stringer, he gained 412 yards rush
ing and 260 yards passing in 1056. May start if George
Walker is really sick.

The Aggies continued their
constant search for that elu
sive “quickness” yesterday
afternoon in their final work
out prior to leaving for Arkansas.
The practice session in sweat
clothing was a short one, lasting
only .15 minutes.
The Cadets are still hampered by
the injury bug, as all five players
injured in the Baylor game last
Saturday remain “question marks.”
Darrell Brown, senior guard
from Dayton and Bobby Joe Con
rad, senior halfback from Clifton
have been released from the Col
lege Hospital and were present for
yesterday’s workout. However,
their injuries will probably keep
them from seeing any action under
any conditions.
John Gilbert, senior pivot man
from Russellville, Aik. is also on
the doubtful list, but due to his
home-state connections, may be al-1
lowed to participate on a part-
time basis.
Ends John Tracey and Don Smith
will probably see limited action, but
neither is considered starting ma
terial.
The teajm departed fr.om Easter-
wood Airport this morning at 11.
They will fly to Fort Smith, where
they will work out this afternoon-
The squad will spend the night in
Fort Smith, venturing to Fayette
ville early tomorrow morning for
the game with the Porkers.
Cincinnati’s stellar keystone
combination, shortstop Roy McMil
lan and second baseman Johnny
Temple, was discovered in a Cin
cinnati tryout camp.
Razor back’s Alibi All Set,
Will Use Influenza Excuse
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark., Oct. 31
—CP)—Influenza punched holes in
the Arkansas line today sending-
two first and second string line
men to bed with fever and broke
into the secondary to down half
back Mike Conway.
First-line quarterback George
Walker and Billy Kyser, hero- of
the Arkansas upset 12-6: win over
Mississippi last week, are describ
ed as feeling bad.
First string tackle Richard Ben
nett and second string guard Billy
Michael were put to bed with fever
and Walker, Barry Switzer, center
and John Boles, tackle, were ail
ing.
Soccer Team Play&
The A&M soccer team plays its
first home game at 2:30 Sunday af
ternoon, entertaining the Houston
United soccer club on the soccer
field near Anchor Hall. The Ag
gies own a 7-2 win over Brookes
Army Medical Center, the 1956
state champions.

you can help missiles 'think 5 better!
Missiles are mental projectiles . .. “projections,”
actually, from your mind to paper to components to
systems to complete weapons. And missile design
demands our best effort to get top performance and
maximum efficiency. Here’s your chance to educate
our missiles, applying latest techniques and newest
devices in plants equipped to build components and
complete systems without sub-contracting . . . teleme
tering, infrared, radar, sonar and many other systems
from research through development to manufacturing.
The Tl-transistorized telemetering system shown
above, in this case more a “talker” than a “thinker,”
provides four times the radiated power in a smaller,
lighter package than comparable vacuum tube sys
tems. Not “frozen” to old design standards, it is almost
completely transistorized and is completely electronic
with no moving parts ... a typical example of Tl’s
policy of advanced systems engineering.
At Texas Instruments — in research, development,
design, and manufacture — you will push out beyond
existing limitations-into new concepts and new
products. You can choose from dynamic fields such as
electronics, missile control and detection, infrared
optics, semiconductor behavior, high speed data
reduction, and many others. At TI, this pioneering
approach has been so successful the company has
IP own 20-fold in the last 10 years to a current $70
million volume ... a growth accelerated by recogni
tion of individual achievement... a growth you
