has entered at least four or five
events in every meet.
He is scheduled to run in the de
cathlon competition at the Kansas
Relays April 19 in Lawrence,
which will require him to enter in
eight events.
Moseley leaped 24-1014 last week
in the Texas Relays to finish be
hind winner Ernie Shelby of Kan
sas and ahead of Smallwood. His
leap set a new school record.
Mike Hale established the old
standard of 24-9% in 1932, and it
stood as the mark for 25 years
until last spring when Smallwood
bettered the distance.
Rice Coach Emmett Brunson says
that the Rice sophomore should be
jumping well over 25 feet before
the year is over. He jumped 22-10
to finish in the Florida state high
school meet. Last year as a fresh
man, he placed third with a dist
ance of 23-5%.
“He’s the best broad jumper I
ever coached,” says Brunson.
He does not have a Rice athletic
scholarship.

“The Ten
Commandments”
anges In Aggie Lineup As
Myers Bemoans Lack of Speed
By GARY ROLLINS
The Texas Aggies moved thru
their fourth day of spring train
ing yesterday, and the end of the
session found a number of posi
tion changes as Coach Jim Myers
had promised would come.
Sophomore-to-be Jon Few, hard-
running Fish back from Midloth
ian, was moved from tailback to
fullback by the Aggies’ mentor.
This move was not necessarily in
stigated by overbearing competi
tion in the tailback slot, but rather
it was Few’s hard running that
convinced Myers.
Other changes found Houston
(Austin) product Randy Sims be
ing moved to wingback fi'om his
blocking back position. Sims was
one of the leading Fish ground
gainers last fall,
Robert Sanders, sophomore-to-
be from Seadrift was changed
from fullback to blocking back and
Harold Labar was moved from
blocking back to guard.
Powell Berry, a candidate for
tailback was moved up on the ros
ter from the “red shirt” team. In
the new system, the players wear
ing white jerseys constitute the
first unit, while blue, green, or
ange and red jerseys follow in that
order.
After the first four days of
practice, Myers was pleased with
some individual efforts being made
by three members of the backfield.
Gordon LeBoeuf, letterman full
back from Port Neches, and Ed
Dudley, tailback from Pampa were
lauded for their running and ball
handling, while Bill Cauthorn was
praised for his work on defense.
These three worked on the first
unit in Thursday’s practice.
Myers was pleased with the
team’s hustle during the spring
drills, but bemoaned the fact that
there was little obvious speed
present—speed being an absolute
necessity for the successful single
wing.
For this reason, he said that
A&M could not be counted as con
tended for SWC honors next sea
son.
The emphasis was placed on de
fense yesterday, as the Cadets
moved through their new drills.
The “sound” method of calling
signals has been scuttled by the
new coaching staff, and “rhythm”
has been re-installed. Under Coach
Bryant, the Cadets moved on the
quarterback’s voice, and not on a
set cadence. However, there are
many other changes that are being
gradually made.
The lineman’s stance has been
altered to the thi’ee-point stance
from the “all-fours” position once
characteristics of Aggie teams.
Then again, on the single wing
formation, the blocking back checks
the opposition’s defense and calls
the snapping signal.
Pigskin Piggyback
Not really “piggyback,” but tackling-blocking practice is
what these two gridders are doing. This strange scene
might depict the ball carrier being “carried.”
The Aggies will have their final
practice session of the week to
morrow afternoon, leaving 13 more
days of contact work out of the
28-day period.
Swim Marks Fall
Three AAU and American re
cords fell Thursday night in pre
liminaries of the Women’s Nation
al AAU Indoor Swimming Meet
with Sylvia Ruuska, Carin Cone
and Chris Von Saltza doing the
honors.
Miss Ruuska, swimming for the
Berkley, Calif., WMCA, wound up
the frails with 5:06.4 in the 440-
yard individual medley, bettering
her own American record of 5:48.0
and her own AAU record of 5:08.1.

THE MENTAL MARVEL mentioned above is so studious
he made Phi Bete in his junior year—of high school!
When he walks into classrooms, professors stand. The
last time he got less than 100%, the proctor was
cheating. When it comes to smoking, he gets straight
A’s for taste. He smokes (All together, class!) Lucky
Strike! Naturally, our student is fully versed on the
subject of Lucky’s fine, light, good-tasting tobacco.
He’s well aware that it’s toasted to taste even better.
So when someone asks him for a cigarette, he’s
happy to spread the good taste. And that makes him
a Kind Grind! Assignment: try Luckies yourself!
