Baylor copped three pointa, baaed
on 10 points for a first-place vote,
nine for second, etc.
It was a runaway for Ohio State
aa far as first-place votas were
concerned. The Buckeyes were
rated in the top spot by all 45 vot
ers Auburn, the third-placo team,
rocoivod IS firat-place votes and
Oklahoma and TCU 12 each. Five
of the top 10 teams failed to Ret a
vota for the top poeition.
Two npw teams made the select
10 this week aa one dropped out
due to defeat and ano'her moved
downward to make room for a team
that turned in an impressive victo

North Carolina, No. 10 Last week,
dropped out of the first 20 in los
in* to North Carolina State. Navy,
atill an uncertain quantity and
ranked seventh laat week, fell to
Uth as FittaburRh took over t'he
No. 7 spot by vfHue of ita victory
over UCLA.
The Rip five teams will make
their df^ut* this week, giving: vot
ers a chance to answer s lot of
questions and ret a line on the
accuracy of their pre-season pre
dictions.
SMU gets an excellent opportu
nity to raise its No. 20 rating when
it meets the Buckeye* this week
An upset victory for the Mustangs
would certainly put them in the
role of a top contender for the
SWC flag. TCU takes on Iowa at

bar s Cougars, like nearly every
one else, have to contend with de
pressing weather conditions and
miserable field conditions
First unit Fullback Jim Kuehne
suffered a rib injury in Monday’s
scrimmage, Lut X-rays revealed
he suffered no broken bones and
will be ready for Saturday's clash
The injury caused some anxiety in
the camp, for CH already has lost
one fullback, Sophomore Tom Co
wan, for the season due to a knee
injury, leaving Huehne, converted
guard C harley Caffrey and Soph
omores Hilmer Potcinske and
Freddy Green to handle the posi
tion.
The Cougars’ depth situation
looked better as the second and
third units showed rapid improve
ment. Botb the first and second
teams ran well on offense and,
despite water-soaked conditions,
t^UHrterbin ks Ismnie Holland, Don
McDonald and Pat Studstill staged
an impressive aerial attack.
Also impressive in early offen
sive drills was Claude King, tal
ented MissisSippian who shows no
signs of the injury which hamper
ed him la't year The tricky gai
ted junior halfback was on the re
ceiving end of several passes and
displayed the darrlmg broken-field
running which won him aH-Amer-
ica honors in high school and more
fame as a UH K tten.
There hasn't been as much
"chatter’’ us in earlier sessions,
which Coach Lahar attributed to
depressing weather But the Cou
gars showed they could move the
hall in the mud and 1-ahar hopes
his charge* will “catch fire” be
fore facing the forces from Aggie-
land.
Sorely missed are some of the
lettermen lm>t via graduation. The
nine lettermen lost represent three
regular starters and a total of
eight who started some games and
ranked in the top 22 players. The
list include all-Midlands tackle
John Peters, Fullback Mike Mich-
on, and the team’s top lineback
er and Co-Captain Bob Blevins, a
consistent top performer at end.
Biggest problems they have had
to cope with are inexperience at
end, fullback and guard, and lack
of depth at center and end. The
back field has fine speed and site.
None of the quarterbacks have
J proven to be exceptional passers,
though this weakness has improv
ed.
