For trainer “Smokey Harper business was booming as casualties trickled into the training room at a steady pace. More than 15 play ers had the “red cross” on their sweatshirts labeling them as in jured when practice ended. The first hour of practice was spent on defense, footwork and agility drills for most of the squad, with the remaining time spent running Coach Myers’ single wing- offensive plays. With sophomore Charles Mil- stead out of action with an injured knee, Ed Dudley has stepped into the white team tailback role. Dud ley handles the running plays well, but his passing Wednesday was spotty and ineffective. Play was rough with much con tact in the line during the workout. Murray Trimble, heavyweight from Alabama, was singled out by the coaches for praise in his defensive play. The two-year letterman is ex pected to be one of the top line men in the conference next season. The white and blue teams, com posed of veterans as Ken Beck, John Tracey, Don Smith, Bill Dar win and A1 Goehring, played “like they wanted to keep their coloi's.” The linemen are quickly adjusting to the single wing method of play. The lack of guards and strong side tackles have become a serious problem to the line coaches. New shakeups are expected in the squad to make these positions stronger. The hard running of the back- field has been the highlight of the sessions. Freshmen John Few and Ronnie Fontenot have been impres sive in their showings. Dick Gay and Gordon LeBeouf are standouts at their positions. The Aggies are absorbing the new plays and methods rapidly. The linemen are having difficulty charging, hitting, then shifting to follow the play defensively.

The Memorial Sthdent Center Table Tennis Committee won the first intercollegiate table tennis match ever played by an Aggie team when they beat Sam Houston State College four matches to one Tuesday afternoon in the game room. The only man to win a match for Sam Houston was Jack Brady who only last semester was a Tex as Aggie. Brady last semester was the number one player on the MSC committee and won the all-col lege singles ping pong champion ship. The former Ag was matched with Dennis Gresham, who is now number one in Aggieland. Dennis lost 0-3 to give the Sam Houston players their only victory. This year’s committee chairman, Jack Wallace beat the Bearkat’s Mehdi Mortazavi 3-0. Wallace said, “This is the committees first step toward forming a college lea gue of table tennis teams.” Wallace hopes to play a return match with Sam Houston and any other college which can produce a team. He said the committee hopes to create interest here and in other colleges by playing these inter college games. Doug (Tiger) Pate, Squadron 17, sophomore slammed Adam Sadr 3-1. Pate has been named chairman of next year’s Table Ten nis Committee. Sophomores! We have the very flowers for your girl to wear to the Sophomore Ball.
