Uribe Farmer’s Chief Threat As Conference Meet Opens High-point-man on the Aggie track team this year is Ernesto Uribe, junior hurdler from Laredo. Uribe came to A&M as a major in agricultural education with no thought of going out for the track team. He had run his junior and senior years in high school, but did not think he could make the college team. He began watching the team work out. “I decided I could make it and went to see Coach Ander son,” said Uribe. The result was that last year he was second high man on the squad, gathering most of his points in the high hurdles and sprints. “I had a very good high school coach, and he taught me almost everything I know,” said Uribe. He began running during his jun- BE A MAGICIAN WRITE MEYER-BLOCH DIR.-CONJURORS’ CLUB 240 RIVINGTON ST. N. Y.

Main, Bryan, Texas Phone TA 2-6105 ior year in high school, but did not compete interscholastically un til his senior year. He won the district meet that year in the hur dles event. So far this year, Uribe has racked up 47 points in nine meets to lead the Aggie speedsters. The SWC Preliminaries Scheduled Today Preliminaries in the Southwest Conference Track and Field Meet are scheduled for Friday after noon, with trials in all field events and running events up to the 880 and in both hurdles. Texas is favored to cop the championship again this year with top hands in eight of the 16 events available for possible firsts. The Aggies could finish second due to their strong depth in the field events, but TCU and Rice are capable of finishing among the ranks of the top two. 220-yard low hurdles are his spe cialty, but he also runs the sprint relays and the dashes when he is needed. In the last tri-meet, with Rice and Baylor, Uribe took first in the high hurdles, one of the two running events A&M won. He has high praises for Coach Charlie Thomas. “You can tell your troubles to a 27-year-old man like him and bet he will see things your way,” said Uribe. “He'is a man who knows his business and has been a real help to the team all year.” Uribe is slated to enter the 220- yard low hurdles in the Southwest Conference meet this weekend. “We stand a good chance to come in second in the meet,” said Uribe. “The big battle will be between us and Rice for the spot,” he added.
