Mississippi Regains Top
Position in National Poll
By Hugh Fullerton Jr.
Associated Press Sports Writer
Bouncing back after one rather
mediocre performance, the Reb
els of Mississippi stormed the
heights of collegiate football this
week and regained first place in
the weekly Associated Press rank
ing poll as Syracuse dropped to
fourth.
The Rebels, who lost ther hold
on first place when they skirted
the edge of an upset against Mem
phis State, handed Vanderbilt a
26-0 thumping Saturday while Sy
racuse, the 1959 national champion,
turned in a shaky, but winning
performance against Holy Cross
15-6.
It was Mississippi, Iowa, Ohio
States and Syracuse in that order
when the returns were all in. And
probably it was as much the vot
ers’ indecision as to which Big
Ten team is tops as Mississippi’s
performance that influenced the
results.
Ole Miss drew 19 of the 48 first
place votes and 428 points. Iowa,
an impressive 27-15 winner over
Michigan State, had 17 firsts and
411 points. Ohio State, 34-7 win
ner over Illinois, moved up from
fifth to third with 8 firsts and
385 points. Syracuse first a Week

ago, wound up fourth with 4 firsts
and 362 points.
Those four teams split all the
first place votes, and oddly, Miss
issippi point total was exactly
the same that Syracuse had last
week 28 first place votes.
Navy, Missouri, Baylor, Clem-
son, Kansas and Minnesota, in
that order, completed the top 10 in
the rankings. I
Syracuse’s tumble was some
thing of a shocker, but not as
great as those experienced by Il
linois fourth last week, Purdue 7th
and Arkansas 9th. None of those
three drew even one point in the
balloting. Purdue lost 24-13 to
Wisconsin, which couldn’t get bet
ter than 12th ranking after the
victory, and Arkansas was beaten
28-14 by Baylor.

Championships ‘On The Table’
By The Associated Press
The Texas schoolboy football
campaign flames in championship
battle on every front this week.
The struggle of 61 of the 67 un
defeated,, untied teams to stay
above water will feature the bulky
schedule.
In many instances the teams
with perfect records are putting
their marks on the line in confer
ence games.
Baytown, rated No. 1 in Class
AAAA, takes on Galveston in the
headliner. It’s a District 12 con
ference test of great importance.
An upset by Galveston would
throw the latter into a favorite’s
spot.
Kilgore, the top-rated team of
Class AAA, meets another unbeat
en, untied outfit — Jacksonville.
El Campo and Port Lavaca get to
gether and Pharr and San Benito
clash in other games matching
teams with unsullied records.
Olney, the top team of Class AA,
collides with Jacksboro, which
also is unbeaten. Kenedy, unbeat
en and untied, meets Pleasanton,
which has only a tie to mar its
record, in a District 28 game
Stinnett, the championship favor
ite of Class A, plays Lefors but
isn’t due to be pressed. Hull-Dais-
etta and Sour Lake play a District
25 conference that also matches
unbeaten, untied teams.
Top-rated teams of Class AAAA
don’t appear in for much compe
tition except in the case of Bay-
town. Wichita Falls plays once-
beaten Vernon of Class AAA, Abi
lene takes on San Antonio Alamo
Heights and Highland Park en
gages Fort Worth-Paschal.
Taylor, one of the heralded pow
ers of Class AA, meets Cameron.
Have a real cigarette-have a CAMEL
it!
The first intramural sport came
to an end last night in the swim
ming finals as F-2 and Sq. 3 took
away top team honors.
In Class A, F-2 won with 28
points and Sq. 11 was runner-up
with 21 points. In Class B, Sq. 3
came, up with 24 points to the
runner-up H-2 with 18.
Jack Klug, Sq. 11, of Covina,
Calif., was the only double win-

Three other new records were
set last night; two of them in re

Aggies Alley
By A1 Rainosek
The Aggies were hosts to the
first round of the Texas Intercol
legiate Bowling Conference held
Saturday, October 8, 1960, at the
Memorial Student Center lanes.
Texas A&M, the defending confer
ence champions, are again leading
the league by downing Texas Uni
versity, Arlington State, and San
Antonio College. The Aggies were
led by Larry Dantzler, Parks Ma-
haney, Jimmy Guy, Scotty Harris,
Roger Bose and A1 Rainosek.
The morning session pitted A&M
against strong San Antonio Col
lege. The Aggies, looking more
like candidates for the Wednesday
morning Housewive’s League,
drdpped, skidded, and blew the
16-pounder down the alley for a
first game trouncing by San An
tonio. Then midway through the
second game, the Ags finally be
gan to show the class they are not
ed for and swept the remaining
two games and the series.
In the first match of the after
noon session, the Aggies were com
pletely in control as they blitzed
the Arlington State rebels. Then
against Texas, The Farmers handi
ly won the first two games, but
a late frame rally by the Teasips
broke the Aggie winning streak.
Using the scoring system of 1
point for each game won and 1
point total pins, the Aggies were
10-2 for the day.
Pat Hurley of Texas had a 245
for high game while Arlington
Stage’s, Dick Pfeil, bowled 645
for high series. Team’ statistics
show San Antonio with a 10(00 high
game and Arlington State’s 2813
high series.
The next round will be Novem
ber 12 at San Antonio. The Aggies
will face North Texas, SMU, and
San Antonio College.
The TIBC would like to thank
Mr. Wayne Smith, MSC lane’s
Manager, for his understanding
and cooperation which made Sat
urday such a success.

L The best tobacco makes the best smoke!

TURKISH & DOMESTIC
BLEND
10 A R E TTE S
Every year,” several hundred new college graduates' choose
DuPont. Many Masters and Ph.D.’s do, too. „ *
From time to time we learn from recent graduates the
factors which led to their decision to join this company. They
cite more than half a dozen reasons. Here are four of the most
important:
OPPORTUNITY AND RECOGNITION
They were aware that college-trained beginners'
go right to work with men who have achieved..
For example, research chemists work with individuals who’ve
done successful research. New engineers work with pros, some of
whom have designed new plants, or devised new manufacturing
methods, or distinguished themselves in some other way. And other
graduates, with B.A. or M.B.A. degrees, go to work with leaders
who’ve been successful in Sales or Advertising or Treasurer’s, or
another of Du Font’s many departments.
They had been told-and rightly—that DuPont rewards indi
vidual achievement. And they were eager to start achieving.
RESEARCH CREATES NEW PRODUCTS;
NEW PRODUCTS CREATE NEW JOBS
Men like working for a company that believes in
research, enough to invest in it...$90 million a year!
The fact is that important new products come from Du Pont
laboratories and go to Du Pont manufacturing plants with frequency.
Here are but a few since World War II: “Orion”* acrylic fiber
followed nylon (soon after the war). Then came “Dacron”* poly
ester fiber, “Mylar”* polyester film, “Lucite”* acrylic lacquer and
“Delrin”* acetal resin.
These, and many others, have created thousands of new jobs... in
research, manufacturing, sales... in fact, in all Du Pont departments.
DUPONT BACKS EMPLOYEES WITH HUGE INVESTMENT
New graduates feel that every facility is provided for doing the job well.
Last year, DuPont’s operating investment per employee was
$32,500. Since much of this was expended to provide the most
modern and best of equipment to work with, it further increases
the chance for individual achievement.
This applies to men in lab, plant and office.
R' '-i r Pn -tiHfriV- l -jiflfl
DUPONT PROVIDES STEADY EMPLOYMENT
Career seekers appreciate the importance of security.
Today, the average annual turnover rate at DuPont is less
than one-third that of industry nationally.
J
• & • tin •
These, and many other reasons, draw new talent to Du Pont each year.
Prospective graduates, M.S.’s and Ph.D.’s interested in learning
more about job opportunities at Du Pont are urged to see their Place
ment Counselor, or to write direct to E. I. du Pont de Nemours & Co.
(Inc.). They should tell us the course they are majoring in so we can
send literature that is most appropriate.
