Texas Relays Attracting
Host of Record Breakers’ Free Bowling!
The Texas Aggie fencing team,
in its first competition this sea
son, faced the top fencing teams
in the nation last weekend in Lub
bock and managed to finish in a
tie for 12th place. There were up
wards of thirty schools competing,
including Columbia, Cornell, Har
vard and others.
Columbia captured the three-
weapon crown of the 61st Inter
collegiate Fencing Association a
few days ago, and reigned su
preme at the NCAA contest held
in Texas for the first time in the
history of the event.
Though the Aggie fencing team
was entering competition for the
first time since the Southwest Con
ference discontinued fencing as a
sport, they were able to tie with
Texas Tech in the best Southwest
Conference showing to date.
Last year, the Red Raiders plac
ed 16th, which was the best ac
complishment until this past week
end. Other SWC schools entering
competition were Rice, Texas
Christian and the University of
Texas.
Joe Spurlock, sophomore from
Fort Worth placed tenth in the
foil in his first competition. Spur
lock is a member of “A” Chem
ical.
Joe Elliott, a Tyler junior civil
ian student, placed 12th while Len
Layne, a junior in “A” Infantry
from Dallas placed 17th.
The good showing of the South
west Conference schools might
bring about a reconsideration on
the part of the conference on class
ifying fencing as a sport.
The perennially record-busting
Texas Relays open Friday with an
army of more than 1,200 athletes
who wondered yesterday if they
would have to compete with rain
along with classy competition.
Five national collegiate event
winners and several stars of the
1956 Olympic Games are in Austin
for one of the nation’s earliest out
door track and field carnivals.
The weather forecast said occa
sional showei’s would move in from
West Texas during the day with
tempei'atures nearly 70.
Bobby Morrow, the almost-un-
beatable sprinter from Abilene
Chxdstian who won three gold,
medials at the Melbourne world
meet, is again the standout attrac
tion from the 1,223 entries. Moi'-
row will have a chance to flick
his heels in the special 440 and
880-yard relays but apparently will
skip the 100-yard invitational be
cause of a strained gi’oi|i muscle.
Other headliners include the 400-
meter hurdles champion from Ohio
State, Glenn Davis; Kansas’ A1
Oerter, Olympic discus .’champion
and relays record-holdex’y and Ed
die Southern of Texas, runner-up
to Davis and co-holder of the world
record time.
National collegiate < champions
include California’s Don Bowden,
lanky pre-law student who is the
only American to break the 4-
minute mile, in the SSO^yard run;
John Fromm, Pacific Lutheran,
who set a NCAA javelin record
here last June; Don Stewart, SMU,
in the high jump; Oerter in the dis
cus, and Morrow in both the 100
and 220-yard dashes.

‘A company that plans far ahead gives
me the chance to work out my future"
“Pleasing 1 design is no accident,” says 32-year-old TV
set designer Richard Montmeat. “It takes creative
planning. At General Electric, we’re constantly de
veloping new product designs — including some for
products which won’t be on the market for several
years. Ever since joining General Electric, I’ve had
the opportunity and challenge of working toward the
designs of the future. As I see it, a company which
plans ahead gives me the chance to work out my own
future, too.”
* («: •
The creative accomplishments of Richard Mont
meat have already brought him widespread recog
nition. He was awarded design patents in 1950 and
1955; he won the Industrial Designers Institute
Award in 1955; and his design for the 1958 General
Electric 17-inch portable television receiver was se
lected for showing in an international design exposL
tion in Milan, Italy.
Progress in pleasing design — making appliances
more enjoyable to own and use — is an important
factor in our nation’s growing use of electricity and
in our constantly rising level of living. Planning now
to satisfy future customers is important not only to
the continued growth of the electrical industry, but to
individual progress as well. Opportunity for long-
range planning is part of the climate for self-develop
ment which is provided for General Electric’s more
than 29,000 college-graduate employees.

The Longhoxms, who had 46 hits
for 41 runs in their last three
outings, scored seven runs off nine

“Jockey brand underwear
made me a brighter sfarl”
“ ‘You can’t play Cyrano if you wear baggy underwear!’ the
drama coach told me. That was the day I bought my first pair
of Jockey briefs. Quel fit! Quel comfort! I looked better and,
amazingly, even my superb acting improved. Jockey briefs had
made a dramatic change in my career!
“Now I get all the starring roles, thanks to comfortable
Jockey brand underwear. And I wouldn’t think of accepting a
substitute. You see, only genuine Jockey brand briefs are tai
lored from 13 separate, individually shaped pieces. That is the
reason they give you such a smooth, comfortable fit!”
Jockey briefs are the most
copied underwear in the
world. Be sure you get
genuine Jockey brand—
they're tailored to fit.
