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.

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.

margin in another game as “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.

A Campus-to-Career Case History
if'
John Reiter (right) discusses the route of signals from the
wave guide through the IF stages of a microtvave receiver.
“This was the kind of challenge I was looking for”
Here’s what John A. 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.”
