A # Lawrence Spearheads Win In Home Court Premiere/ By CARY ROLLINS With the subtlety of a wildcat in a chicken coop, the Texas Aggies outscored, out-rebounded, out-hustled and out ran the hapless Texas Longhorns to a 71-50 victory last night in their debut on their home court. For the third straight time, the Teasips walked off the G. Rollie White Coliseum court with the “Poor Teasip” chant ringing in their ears. Wayne Lawrence led the anxious pack) of Cadet Cagers, scoring 22 points and grabbing 11 rebounds. He wasn’t the only shining star, however, for junior college transfer Archie Carroll meshed 13 tallies and Neil Swisher added 12 more. The 21-point thrashing will go down in the record books as one of the worst defeats* eyer handed a Texas Univer- Myers IlitCFGStGcIj sity basketball team by the Aggies. The only time the Steers led in the contest was in the first quarter when they held a 10-6 ad vantage over Coach Bobby Rogers’ Aggies. A jump shot by Swisher and two charity tosses by Carroll put the Farmers back into a lead they never relinquished. A&M pressed a 23-point lead with only seconds to go, but Bai'ry Dowd’s two free throws lessened the pain by two points. This Friday night in G. Rollie White Coliseum, the Aggies take on powerful Rice in what might be a do-or-die game for the Owls.

Johnson and Forrester. 20 50 Officials. Aggies Cautions DALLAS, (/P)—Texas A&M of ficials and Iowa State football coach Jim Myers will confer here on the Texas A&M coaching job, a member of the A&M board of directors said yesterday. Jack Finney of Greenville, Tex. chairman of the board’s athletic committee, said he and Texas A&M president, Dr. M. T. Harrington, would confer here last night with Myers. Myers was understood due here by plane at 6:35 p. m. CST. “We’re not in a big hurry to find a coach,” said Finney. “We’re trying to find the right man for the job, and we think we have the best coaching job in the country.” Finney said every effort was being made to find a coach with out fanfare. “We don’t like the idea of the reports that we have offered $60,- 000 to everyone we’ve talked with and been turned down flat. If somebody comes in we’re willing to meet him and talk with him.” Reports have circulated here and at the NCAA meeting in Phila delphia, Pa., that Myers might take over the reins at College Station. Salt In The Wound Fritzie Connally, jumping-jack forward from San Antonio is shown dropping in a field goal early in the second quarter of last night’s game which the Cadets handily won by a 21- point margin, 71-50. INTRAMURALS In Class “A” football activity yesterday, Jim Vrba threw two touchdown passes and ran 15 yards for another to spearhead his “C” Infantry team to a 26-0 Victory over Squadron 9. The first of Wba’s passes covered 15 yards with Lloyd Neal on the receiving end. The other was to Don Farek for five yards.

By ROBERT WEEK LE Y A. The Texas Shorthorns aided by tall, 6-8, A1 Alamanza combined, talents last night in G. Rollie White Coliseum to down a fight ing, but out-sized Fish quintet by the score of 63-61. Alamanza was the whole show for the Shorthorns as he led his team’s scoring with 29 points, most of them made in the second half. He also snared 16 rebounds. The Fish were anything but gen tle as they shoved the Horns around physically to collect 23 per sonal fouls, and this was the big difference in the game. The Steers stood at the free throw line and coolly collected 15 gratis points. The young Aggies had six chances, sinking only three. John DeWitt’s freshmen com pletely mastered the court until early in the second half when Ala manza began to wax hot and hit the basket for 20 points in one period. Elliott Craig and Malcolm Law ler were the big guns for the Fish, collecting 16 points apiece. Craig, playing his finest game to date, joined forces with Don Mercer in the second half to keep the Aggie hopes alive by scoring a combined total of 18 points. The Fish will meet the Rice Owlets here this Friday night.

Reiter, Jr., B.S. in Electronics, Arizona State College, ’54, says about the biggest project so far in his Bell System career. . “This was the kind of challenge I was looking for—a chance to assist in plan ning a microwave radio relay system between Phoenix and Flagstaff, Arizona. Five intermediate relay stations would be needed, and I began by planning the tower locations on ‘line of sight’ paths after a study of topographical maps. Then I made field studies using altimeter measurements, and conducted path-loss tests to determine how high each tower should be. This was the trickiest part of the job. It called for detecting the pres ence of reflecting surfaces along the transmission route, and determining measures necessary to avoid their effects. “Not the least part of the job was estimating the cost of each of the five relay stations. All told, the system will cost more than $500,000. When con struction is finished in ‘December of this year, I’ll be responsible for technical considerations in connecting the radio relay and telephone carrier equipment. “This assignment is an example of the challenges a technical man can find in the telephone company. You take the job from start to finish—from basic field studies to the final adjustments—with full responsibility. To technical men who want to get ahead, that’s the ultimate in responsibility.” John Reiter is building his career with Mountain States Telephone and Telegraph Company.
