The other two teams to pull the trick have been TCU and SMU, with both teams winning- a total of three championships since the tourney was originated in 1951 Rice is the only other league team to win the tourney, with Tech, Baylor and Arkansas left out in the cold. ★ ★ ★ The Aggies ruined SMU’S chance of repeating for a fourth time in the toui-ney when they downed the Ponies in the championship finale, 58-55, in a game that almost went into overtime. A&M played all three of their games in the night time, with each game being played before a capacity crowd. First they defeated TCU 72-61, then Texas 84-74 before moving to the finals against the Mustangs. ★ ★ ★ The Aggies placed two men on the All-Tournament first team, Carroll Broussard and Wayne Lawrence. Broussard, in addition, was named the tourney’s most valuable player, receiving two watches. One was for the All-Tourney team and a gold one for being named the most valuable player. Broussard edged out teammate Lawrence for the honor. ★ ★ ★ Charley Milstead, the Farmers star quarterback during the past football season, will be the guest speaker at the Beaumont A&M Club’s dinner honoring more than 75 high ly touted prep football stars from five districts Jan. 13. The Aggies will also be represented by members of the Aggie coaching staff, who will have more on their minds than Charley’s speech or dinner. Recruiting is now rushing along in all Southwest Conference schools. )- ★ ★ ★ Congratulations go out to the Arkansas football team for the fine game they played against Georgia Tech in the Gator Bowl, winning 14-7. It was Tech Coacl> Bobby Dodd’s first loss in a howl contest while coaching at that school. Another tip of the hat goes to Tgxas for the spirited game they played against favored Syracuse, even though they lost the game. They put on i/h inspired performance that the conference can look back c,,h in pride. Unfortunately, not much ca’i be said about the Horned Frog’s showing in the Bluebonnet Bowl. Their performance was far from inspiring. ★ ★ ★ T’ e A^g’e basketball (ftearn is rocking along at a nace that could have 1 he i se* a. new win record p!

Senior David Pierce is second in scoring for the Bruins with an S 11.6 scoring average and has 36 rebounds. Bob Turner and Richard Tinsley round out the top scorers, for the Bears with a 10.8 and 7.7 averages. The Aggies have the edge in both scoring and defensive play, averaging 74.5 points per game scoring while limiting their op ponents to 53.6. Baylor averages 67.6 points per game and has held their opponents to a little over 60 points per game. Both teams have played common opponents, facing TCU in the SWC Tournament. A&M downed the Horned Frogs by 11 points, Baylor beat them 16. Last year the Aggies and Bay lor split in their two game series, A&M winning their game at Col lege Station while Baylor played the stingy host and won theirs at Waco.

TEXAS CHS Annexes Three Wins In Holiday Tournaments By RUSSEL BROWN CHS Correspondent The Humble Holiday Tourna ment and three non-district tilts have given the A&M Consolidated Tigers three wins in their last four starts over the phristmas Holiday period, bringing the Ben- gals record to 7-4 for the young 1959-60 season. Coach Jack Churchill’s boys re bounded from their 55-53 loss to the South Houston High of Pasa dena Trojans Dee. 16 when they racked up their second win in three tries over the Allen Academy High Ramblers 54-37, in Tiger Gym. The Bengals hit a cold streak in the first half of play leading only 19-18 at halftime but bounced back in the second half of play to dominate the hapless Ramblers. Senior 6-2 postmen Bruce Thomp son and Virden Smith tied for high point honor with 12 points apiece while Kelly Parker threw in 10. Jerry Kruse had 11. for Allen.

New Year’s Day found the Tigers back on their home floor against the Franklin Lions in the first of a two-game series. The Bengals whipped the Lions, 45-26, with tremendous second and third quarter showings even though the varsity played less than half the contest, giving way to the Tiger “B” bunch. Parker again led the Tigers with 10 points while Thompson and Smith swished the nets six times apiece. Held to onily one field goal in the first half, Franklin rebound ed against the “B” teamers with Carrol Love hitting four quick buckets in the final period to end the night with nine points for the losers.

Downtown Bryan A Campus-to-Career Case History My talk with the Bell System interviewer is really paying off Today, less than five years since he grad uated from Michigan State University, Donald J. Zigman is an Accounting Man ager for Wisconsin Bell Telephone Com pany in Oshkosh—with seven supervisory and 93 clerical employees reporting to him. His group handles billing for 350,- 000 telephone customers and processes $1,500,000 in revenue each month. Don has moved ahead fast—and stead ily—but no more so than the Bell System interviewer told him he might. “That guy made a real impression on me,” says Don. “He didn’t guarantee a bright future for me. He simply described the kind of varied job experience I’d get, outlined the on-the-job training I’d go through, and pointed out the advance ment opportunities I’d have along the way. The only thing he promised me was that I would have ‘maximum exposure for self-development.’ He was 100 per cent right there. My training has been terrific—and I’ve had every chance to ad vance that I could possibly hope for.” After joining the company, Don spent eight months in the Plant Department learning the roots of the business. He got experience as a lineman, installer and repairman. He was transferred to Ac counting in December, 1956, working in the Methods and Results section. Thir teen months later, he was Supervisor of that section—and, 14 months after that, he became Accounting Manager. “How much farther I go now is entirely up to me,” says Don. “One thing I know: the opportunities are here.” Don Zigman graduated with a B.A. degree in Economics and English. He’s one of many young men who have found interesting careers with the Bell Telephone Companies. Learn what opportunities you might have.
