The towering Lawrence, a 6-7
player, missed half of the season
last year after he sufferd a leg
injury against the Baylor Bears.
This is one of the main reasons the
Aggies finished in the second di-
Before his injury Lawrence was
averaging 13 points per game and
rounding out into a finished per
former, then came the injury. His
big contribution to the team had
been his rebounding ability, which
averaging out around nine
per game.
Cox was a defensive standout for
the Cadets, and had his moments
of glory when it came to shooting
baskets, too. His favorite shot is
a two-handed push that comes
from around one of the end cor
ners, nearest the basket. Arkansas
made the mistake of letting him
shoot from there and he pumped in
around 20 points. Cox was third
in team scoring with a 10.2 aver
age per game.
Chapman, the junior college
transfer who had laid out a couple
of years before coming to A&M
to play basketball, became eligible
only in the spring semester. He
was a slow starter, but finished
at a roaring pace. Chapman stands
at 6-3, but has such spring in his
legs that he can jump with the
best. He averaged 5.5 points per
game, but in the final three tilts
was scoring closer to 15.
The fabulous Stanley twins of
Buna and Kilgore Junior College
move onto the A&M basketball
court for the first time this year.
The two identical twins are like
peas in a pod, they both stand 6-3,
weigh the same 180 pounds, and
have about the same record on the
basketball court.

and averaged 14 rebounds, while
Don had a 20.1 per game mark
and 16 rebounds. Both made Junior
College All-America.
Cox was their teammate for one
year at Kilgore.
A third Junior College All-
America athlete joins the Aggies
this year, Wayne Annett of Paris
Junior College. Annett is a 6%
foot player.
Two outstanding sophomores
move up to the varsity this year
and both are looking for starting
post. Carroll Brousard, 6-5 and
195 pounds, is one of the brightest
basketball players the Farmers
have seen in years. As a fresh
man he averaged 19-20 points per
game and was one of the top
Fish rebounders. He has a falling-
away shot that is almost impos
sible to guard, and is quick and
agile on defense.
The other freshman is John
Keller, who also stands at 6-5.
Keller was .the leading rebounder
for the Frosh and one of the top
three scorers.
Expected to give the Farmers
help is returning letterman Elliot
Craig and Roger Harvey. Harvey
lettered at Aggieland in 1954-55
and 1955-56 before he left for the
Army. Craig was a spot player
for the Cadets last year, although
he hit .500 from the floor.
The Aggies open the season
December 1 against Centenary at
College Station. The Freshmen al
so open at that date in White
Coliseum.
Cadets Have Rugged Session;
Injuries Weaken End Position
The Aggies moved outdoors for
the first time this week and went
slogging through a long, two and
one half-hour practice that saw the
Cadets get in Tuesday’s contact
work yesterday.
Tuesday’s sessions were spent on'
the hardwood floors of White Coli
seum while Monday was a day off
for the Farmers so they could rest
Intramurals
Corps championship run-offs
were held last night in swimming
and diving intramurals with two
new records being broken in the
200-foot A and B breaststroke.
In the class A events Sq. 1 took
top honors with 21 points, follow
ed by Co. F-l, Co. H-2, Sq. 12, Sq.
7 and Sq. 9. Co. F-2 was top team
with 24 points. They were followed
by Sq. 10, Sq. 1, Sq. 6 and Sq. 14.
McChristian, Sq. 7, set the new
class A breaststroke record with
a 52.8 and Seagraves, Sq. 10 broke
the old class B breaststroke rec
ord with a 50.2.
after their victory ovpr the Uni
versity of Houston Cougars.
Injuries continued to crop up in
the Aggie camp with End Russell
Hill limping off the field with a
twisted ankle. The injury placed
Hill on the doubtful list for Satur
day’s date with the TCU Horned
Frogs, but the Aggies are hopeful
he will respond to treatment and
be ready for the first Southwest
Conference tilt.
Jesse McGuire still continued on
the injured list with a swollen knee,
aggravated by the workout on the
hard floors of the Coliseum. Whe
ther he will be ready to play or not
is a big question mark for the
coaches.
Ralph Smith, the other weakside
end with Hill, is the third serious
ly injured Cadet. He is sidelined
with a hurt shoulder.
With both his first and second
string weakside ends on the injur
ed rolls Coach Jim Myers moved
Junior Tom Moore up with the
first string and shifted strong
side end Richard Love over to
bolster the position.
Myers was pleased with the
work of Guard Wayne Frieling.
“Freiling is running on the third
team now,” said Myers, “but if
he keeps pn like this he’ll be sit
ting on the first team.”
But overall the practice left the
Aggie mentor unimpressed. “It
was a very listless session,” he
said.
The Aggies will move through a
light drill today and then board
the plane Friday afternoon for the
trip to Fort Worth and their game
with the TCU Horned Frogs. The
Cadets will hold a light practice
session Friday in Fort Worth.
The TCU game will be the first
Southwest Conference game of the
year for the Cadets, while TCU
has already met Arkansas and
bowed down in defeat.
The class A diving honor's were
taken by Galindo of Puryear. He
was followed by Johnson, Co. F-l;
Reinhardt, Sq. 1*2; Long, Bizzell;
McGinty, Co. G-2, and Powell, Co.
E-l.
Class B diving was won by Gur
ley, Sq. 1 and behind him was |
Humber, Co. G-2; Kelly, Sq. 7 and ,
Smith, Composite H-2.
Jim Baily, brother of Cincin
nati’s catcher Ed Baily, was
called up from Nashville after he
won 10 of his. last 12 dicisions.
He is a 6-foot-2 southpaw pitcher.
