It seems appropriate that the
students of A&M should know the
members of their bowling commit
tee as well as their activities.
Therefore, this will be the first
of a series of articles featuring
some of its interesting and out
standing members.
By far, the most prominent per
son connected with our committee
is our good friend and faculty
advicor, Mr. Marvin H. Butler,
commonly known to most commit
teemen as “Pro.” Mr. Butler, As
sistant Professor of Economics,
received his BA degree in 1940
from McKendree College in Illin
ois. After serving four years in
the Army, he went ont to obtain
his MS degree from the University
of Illinois in 1948, at which time
he came to A&M where he has been
teaching ever since. Among his
many activities at present he holds
the rank of Major in the Army re
serves, is carrying a 191 average
in the Classic League in Bi'yan
and is working on his PhD. here
at A&M.
Over and above his current re
sponsibilities, he is now s'erving as
our advisor for his eleventh year.
During this time, he has watched
us grow from a sparce number of
17 to the present 125. Meanwhile,
| he has been elected President of
the Bryan-College Station Bowl
ing Association three times and has
served on the board of directors
the remaining years. Last year, he
was presented the highest award
available by the M. S. C., that
of an Achievement Award for truly
outstanding service. However, he
shyly admits that this thrill is
second to the one he gets from
watching the Match Team.
The Bowling Committee is proud
to have Mr. Butler as our advisor
now and in the years to come, for
one who has so tirelessly served
us would be impossible lio replace.
By LARRY SMITH
One of the steadiest players on
the Aggie team this season is
short, squatty, senior left guard
Wayne Labar,
Wayne, who stands a full 5-914
and weighs 200 pounds played one
of his best games of his fruitful
career in the Aggies spirited tie
with the TCU Horned Frogs.
HS Fullback
A fullback in high school, in the
valley town of Harlingen, Wayne
came to the Aggies at this position.
In his sophomore year he was
moved to guard and later on shift
ed to blocking back in Coach Jim
Myers’ once used single wing. La
bar relates that “I kind of liked
blocking back, and even caught a
few passes.”
Through the Aggies first seven
games, Wayne has started at the
guard position and his No. 60 jer
sey is constantly coming up from
the bottom of the pile.
One of the shortest me|n of the
team, Wayne is always having
height measurements with another
Wayne — Wayne Freiling. Labar
laughs, “We still haven’t decided
on who is the tallest, one day I’ll
take the honors and the next, he
will.”
Three Year Letterman
One of the seven three year let-
termen on the squad this fall,
Wayne could not decide between
offense and defense, “I just guess
I like them both about equally,”
he said.
Wayne, whose nickname is Leep-
er, is an education major and also
one of many married players on
the Aggie team. He and his pret
ty brunette wife, Janice were mar
ried last December.
Runs Like Duck
Labar, with his very short legs,
has one of the most unique run
ning styles on the Aggie squad.
When running to and from the
bench during a game, he looks
similar to a little duck waddling to
the sidelines for a breather. Only
teammate Babe Craig can compare
with Wayne and his running style.
A person can tell by talking to
Wayne that the Aggies have real
ly been fighting this season.’ The
scratches on his face show signs
of tough battle in the middle of
the line.
With only three more games in
his collegiate career, Wayne noted
that ‘LI would like to wind up my
football palying with a victory
over those Texas Longhorns.”

Used in tracking and recording
telemetry from U.S. spacecraft.
On August I2th, I960, JPL scientists at Goldstons,
California, radioed the world's first transcontinental microwave messags
to be relayed by a passive, artificial earth satellite. This satellite was the.
|t. plastic balloon Echo l orbiting around the Earth at an altitude of 1,000 miles,
/re-recorded statement by President Eisenhower was received 2,300 miles away
by scientists of the Bell Telephone Laboratories at Holmdel, New Jersey,
as clearly as any telephone call, in a fraction of a second,
fcr in the course of the Echo experiment, the scientists at Goldstone and Holmdel
conducted 2-way voice communication off the balloon satellite,
Joldston.e transmitting at 2,390 megacycles and Holmdel at 960 megacycles*
This successful experiment opens up vast new fields of development
