Sagging Ag Five Faces TCU
In Crucial SWC Tilt Tonight
By BOB WEEK LEY
Battalion Sports Editor
Coach Bob Rogers’ Aggies, sul-
ieh after their 46-57 defeat by
Texas Tech Saturday before a
regional television audience, try to
jump back into the winning col
umn tonight when they tackle the
high-flying Texas Christian Uni
versity Horned Frogs in White
Coliseum at 8 p.m.
Coach Buster Brannon’s Frogs
pace the Southwest Conference
race with only one loss against
tneir five wins. Only one game
separates them from Bayior (5-2)
and Texas Tech (4-2).
TCU will hold a height advan
tage over the Aggies as the all
veteran Frog starters average
6-5. AcVM is near 6-4 with lanay
\vayne Lawx-ence their tallest at
6-7.
Kelly Chapman, the junior col
lege All-American from Owens
boro, Hy., will make his debut in
the SYVU as he gams his eligibil
ity in time to help the sagging
Aggie offense.
Chapman, who will probably re-:,
place dim MciMichol in the A&iVi
lineup, has tremendous spring in
his legs, making him a top re-
bounuer, and an amazing assort
ment of shots that make him very
hard to defend.
Opposite Chapman at the other
forward position will be Lawrence,
while .Neil Swisher and Wilmer
Cox will be at guard and Archie
Carroll at center.
Swisher, suffering from a pull
ed muscle in his tnigh, has seen
his Shooting average drop from
best in the conference down to
fifth place with slightly more than
15 points per game. Carroll trails
Swisher with 14 points per game.
H. E. Kirchner, 6-10, and Ronny
Stevenson lead the P’rog’s attack.
Kirchner has averaged 17 points

of both Kirchner and Stevenson,

Wildcats Again Top Cage Poll
College basketball’s leading teams ended their mid
season lull and resumed the full time business of beating one
another’s ears off last week. The results brought only one
change in the top ten rankings, but led the experts to scatter
their votes a bit more than usual.
It was Kentucky on top again by a comfortable margin
over North Carolina with the order of the leaders unchanged
until seventh place was reached. St. John’s of Brooklyn
dropped out of that spot after losing two games on a road
trip. Michigan State and Bradley moved up to close the gap
and St. Louis, winner over St. John’s, took over ninth place.

A Campus-to-Career Case History
Bill Burns (far right) reviews a plan for expanding Syracuse’s
toll-free calling area with some felloiv supervisors.
He wanted more than
just an engineering job'
William G. Burns majored in Civil En
gineering at Union College. But he had
his own ideas about his engineering
future. “I wanted a job with a ‘growth’
company,” he says, “where I could de
velop and move ahead as a member of
management.”
Bill found his ‘growth’ company—and
his management opportunity. On gradu
ating in June, 1954, he started work
with the New York Telephone Company,
i' Six months of training and job assign
ments in Albany familiarized him with
die Plant, Commercial, Accounting and
jTraffic functions of the telephone busi-
jness. Then came 18 months as engineer
in the Long Range Planning Group. In
jOctober, 1956, he was promoted to Su
pervising Engineer.
Bill was transferred to Syracuse in
August, 1958, as Supervising Engineer-
Fundamental Plans, with a staff of four
engineers and two clerks. In this job,
he studies and forecasts the future tele
phone needs of customers in a 4800-
square-mile area, planning from three to
20 years ahead. He then co-ordinates
the development of plans to meet future
needs with the various engineering
groups involved. Bill calls it “manage
ment engineering.”
Bill is married, has three youngsters
and owns his own home. “A man has to
build his own security,” he says, “and
finding the right place to do it can be
mighty important. Choosing a Bell Tele
phone career was the best decision I ever
made. I don’t know where an ambitious
young fellow can find more or better
chances to move ahead in management.”
Many young men, with degrees in the sciences, arts, engi
neering or business, are finding interesting and reward
ing careers with the Bell Telephone Companies. Look
into career opportunities for you. Talk with the Bell
interviewer when he visits your campus. And read the
Bell Telephone booklet on file in your Placement Office.
