Carroll Leads Ags Scoring
Senior Archie Carroll dominates A&M’s scoring statistics
with a 15.6 average and 62 rebounds.
Missouri’s Coach Devine
\Given $130,000 Policy
Ags Face Tech Here
In Saturday Contest
ST. LOUIS CflP) — University of
(Missouri alumni are insuring
(themselves against losing the foot-
[ball coach at their alma mater.
They gave Dan Devine a $150,-
000 life insui-ance policy, effec
tive Thursday. It’s his as long as
he remains coach at the univer
sity.
If he leaves the job voluntarily
he forfeits all interest in the pol-
licy. If he is fired, he retains the
equity paid up in the policy at
the time.
It’s an idea borrowed straight
j from big business. .Richard C. Co
burn, an attorney spearheading
the alumni move, says:
“We knew some large business
concerns make some sort of ar
rangement as this to retain a
young man they want to bring up
to a position of responsibility in
the company. So far as we know
it never has been done before in
the sports field.”
The 34-year-old coach met in
formally with a group of alumni
Wednesday night to sign the nec
essary papers.
Devine and his wife have five
children, the oldest 10-year-old
twins, and are expecting a sixth.
Coach Bob Rogers’ Aggies, their
shaky hold on fifth place in the
conference threatened by the Ar
kansas Razorbacks, face the tough
Texas Tech Red Raiders tomorrow
night in White Coliseum at 8 p.m.
There will not be a pi-eliminary
freshman game.
The Raiders, proud holders of a
6-3 Southwest Conference record
and the second place position in
conference standings, could be the
team that breaks the Aggies for
the season. For A&M it’s a case
of everything to win and nothing
to lose. *
Coach Pdlk Robinson’s Raiders,
supposedly hurt by the scholastic
failures of his two tallest men.
have been coming on with a late
season surge that saw them win
three straight games, one over the
TCU Horned Frogs, before meeting
that same Fi’og aggregation again
and going down in defeat on their
own home court.
Forward Leon Hill has been one
of the main reasons for the Raider
success. All-SWC last season, the
6-6 senior is again leading his team
in scoring and rebounding.
Co-Captain Charlie Lynch, 6-2
senior from Sudan, has been one of
the top defenders for the Lubbock
five. Lynch could be compared to
Kelly Chapman in his ability to
clear the boards over much taller
opponents.
Gene Arrington, field goal per
centage leader last season in the
SWC and a 6-4 forward, is prob
ably one of the top juniors in the
Conference. Other stai'tei’s for
the Raiders should be Gerald My
ers, the 5-10 speedster from Bor-
ger who ran wild against the Ca
dets last season, and James Wiley,
a 6-5 junior.
Archie Carx-oll, 6-6 senior from
Redlands, has begun his domina
tion of the statistics for the Aggie
squad in conference play. Carroll
has scored 141 points for a 15.6
average. His .467 shooting aver
age from the floor leads the Cadets
in accuracy along with his 62 re
bounds.
Swishing Neil Swisher contin
ues to be the steady player for the
Cadets, scoring 135 points for an
average of 15 per game. Swisher
is shooting at a .420 clip from the
floor and has scored on 41 of 48
free throw attempts.
Wilmer Cox, the defensive ace
for the Farmers, has pulled down
some 44 rebounds to hold second
position in that department for the
Aggies. Cox has scored 81 points
for an average of 9 per game.
Jim McNichol, the big red-head
who looks better in every confer
ence game, has scored 54 points
for an average of six points per
game. McNichol has collected 40
rebounds and is the most accurate
\g on the free throw line, tossing
in 18 of 20 for a .900 percentage.
Furgol Fires 62
In Tucson Open
TUCSON, Ariz. (A>) _ Marty
Furgol shot the best golf of his
ife yesterday to lead the $15,000
Tuscon Open with an eight-under-
par 62.
The 41-year-old veteran from
Lemont, 111., dropped long putts
for eight birdies and blazed home
with 31-31.
The touring pros toyed with the
3,434-yard, par-70 El Rio course,
almost half the field breaking par.
Julius Boros, Mid Pines, N.C.,
was three strokes behind with 33-
32-65.
Grouped at 66 were A1 Besse-
link, Grossinger, N.Y.; Lloyd Man-
grum, Apple Valley, Calif.; and
Joe Jiminez, Manhattan, Kan.
Furgol said he putted better
Thursday than when he won the
recent San Diego Open, his first
tourney victory since 1954.
At 67 were Jerry Barber, Los
Angeles; Holly Johnson, San Mar-
Calif.; Walter Burkemo, Franklin
Hills, Mich.; and Joe Zakarian,
Modesto, Calif.
VOTE “NO” ON COLLEGE STATION STREET RONDS
Do you want to be saddled with a needless debt of $350,000 on which you will pay not less
than $167,000 in interest?
The City Council spent endless hours considering street problems of College Station and de
cided unanimously to adopt a wise and proven “pay-as-you-go” plan as against an unwise bond issue.
Do you feel that you are on safe ground to vote against such a recommendation? Consider some
of the statements to follow.
Did you know that since adopting a plan last October the City has increased our city taxes
by 50% and our water rates to provide an annual sum of not less than $45,000 for the City’s por
tion of street construction?
Did you know that this money is “going begging” or practically so. One project, 1500 feet
on Lee seems imminent but this will take only $4,500 of City funds.
Did you know that under the adopted plan it is possible that $270,000 worth of street con
struction might be under way by the end of 1959 ? How much faster would you want to go ? If
faster progress should be needed at times, a small, short term loan would be better than a long
range bond issue..
Did you know that each year $45,000 of city funds with $90,000 from the property owners
will build nearly three miles of curb and gutter s treets, if that type should be used exclusively, or
will build 11 miles of streets without curbs and gutters.
Are you one who thinks that Bond money will lessen your own assessed cost? If so, you
are mistaken, it will be the same as with “pay-as-you-go.”
Why not back your City Council and let them get on with street improvements under the
October plan? Money paid as interest does not build streets. This agitation for a bond issue has
held up action too long now. Stop it by a convincing “thumbs down” vote on Bonds, February 17th.
Do not become complacent and lose interest. Rumors are afloat today to the effect that
the issue will be decisively defeated 2 or 3 to 1. Do not be misled. The proponents of the bond
issue are all going to vote.
VOTE FEBRUARY 17th, and VOTE “NO” for the good of our fine Community.
A Group of Interested Citizens
With 6-7 Wayne Lawrence out of
the picture for the Aggies with a
broken foot, short Jack Collier has
stepped in and done an outstand
ing job. The 6-0 senior has scored
19 points in six games for a 3.1
points per game average. Collier
is one of the three starters hitting
over .400 per cent of his shots
from the floor. He is probably the
weakest Aggie on the free throw
line, making only 5 of 12 for a .417
mark.

IN CD’S DEBT
COLUMBUS, Ohio <#>)—A young
jet fighter pilot from Lockbourne
Air Force Base here is mighty
glad the F. B. Wagner family oi
Pedro, Ohio, participates in Ground
Observer Corps airplane spotting.
First Lt. George Kersey bailed
out of his F86L jet fighter shortly
before it exploded over Lawrence
County, Ohio. Medical aid reached
Kersey quickly because Mrs. F. B.
Wagnei’, wife of an Observer Corps
supervisor, spotted his falling
plane and parachute and notified
Air Force authorities.
The lieutenant is recovering from
neck injuries in an Air Force hos
pital.
FOOTBALL PROBLEM
SARATOGA, Wyo. bP)—Even
for a football coach Dennis Ragan
has an odd problem.
His Saratoga high school foot
ball team opened its season with
an impressive 39-13 victory over
Midwest in an 11-man game.
Then Ragan had to switch tactics
and drill his squad for seven con
ference games — playing 8-man
football.
Finally Saratoga winds up its
season Oct. 31 against Walden,
Colo., playing the conventional 11-
man game again.
