THE BATTALIOR
Fish Have Good Statistics;
Meet Wogs Saturday Night
By LARRY SMITH
Going into their eighth game of
the season, the Aggie Fish still
have a rather respectable percent
age from the floor.
Through seven games the Fish
have made 179 out of 469 shots for
a .382 percentage while holding
their opponents to .361 per cent.
The Fish lead in every statistical
department except the free throw
column where the opponents lead
.718 percent to .681 percent.
Guard Dave Johnson, the play-
maker for the Fish, has the high
est percentage on field goals, mak
ing on 23-53 for a .434 v percentage.
The tallest man on the squad, Bill
Robinette, is second with a .429
percentage. The other three start
ers, McGuire, Lenox and Merritt,
have .395 percent, .388 percent and
.386 percent respectively.
In the total points department,
Forward Bennie Lenox is easily
the kingpin as he has compiled an
average of 25.6 points per game.
Following Lenox is Lynn Merritt
with a 12.4 average, Robinette with
a 12.3 average, Johnson^with 9.6
points, and Chuck McGuire with
a five point average.
The Fish’s “weakest” depart
ment, rebounding, is not too weak
as they lead .their opponents, 372
to> 349. The leader for the Fish is,
6h6 center, Robinette with 77 re-
bonmds for the seven games. Lenox
hae grabbed 54 off the boards and
Megritt has racked up 53.
This weekend in the cowtown of
Fort Worth, the Fish take on the
TCU Wogs who they defeated in
theitr second game of the season,
58-5(0.
It is being said around G. Rollie
each, of the four grous, and the
just developed within the last few
days- If this is true, the Fish
should have little trouble winning
over the Wogs ag’ain.

By Joe Callicoatte
“Four Starters Dropped From Basketball Team Because
of Scholastic Defeciency”.
This was the headline that spread across the nation’s
newspapers yesterday concerning the University of Iowa, the
ninth ranked cage team in the nation.
It was indeed an unfortunate situation for the Hawk-
eyes who had compiled a 12-3 record and were considered
the only team left with a shot at top-ranked Ohio State in
the Big Ten cage race.
The same disaster that struck the Hawkeyes could hap
pen anywhere and the thought constantly haunts coaches
and players.
It has in Texas high schools and many times in the
Southwest Conference.
But it hasn’t occurred at Texas A&M in the past few
years.
There is always the trite argument that the majority
of athletes elect an easy course of study or receive extra help
from profs. This is certainly a fallacy at A&M.
Off last year’s grid roster, only three Aggies were major
ing the typical Physical Education, while 16 were in engi
neering.
Also athletes aren’t given extra consideration in the
Texas A&M classrooms.
The biggest boost to A&M’s ability to keep their athletes
scholastically eligible is largely attributed to the scholastic
advisory service set up by the Athletic Department under
A. E. (Buddy) Denton.
Before joining the Athletic Department last year, Bud
dy had been with Basic Division and saved many a student
from total doom grade-wise with his counseling.
Denton’s new job is the same as the old except that he
is dealing with athletes, whose time is scarce during their
season. He helps the students select the right major as well
as set up study schedules for them.
Sure, the athletes gripe about having to go to study hall
and make class attendence a habit, but they stay elegible.
This bickering is no different that that of underclass
men in the Corps of Cadet Call to Quarters every night.
Another little added inducement to attend classes is put
before the athletes. If too many cuts are turned in on an
athlete, his study hall comes at 5 in the morning.
★ ★ ★
While on the subject of grades of athletes, the man
agers should also be saluted. Actually these students put in
more time than the players themselves.
They have to arrive at the field before the players every
day and remain afterward to straighten the lockers. Also
many weekends are taken up with work at the field house.
And most of the managers get no compensation what
soever for their many hours.
Last semester seven football managers and one basket
ball manager had an average grade point ratio of 1.77. Don
Jones headed the football managers with a 2.67 and was fol
lowed by Frank Haynes, Bob Roepke, Sandy Westbrook, Bil
ly Vassar, Chester Michalak and Lynn Boyd. The basketball
manager was Jim Roberts.

PLAN YOUR FUTURE ‘
WITH THE LEADER IN SPACE SCIENCE
Since the beginning of his intellectual awereness, Man has
looked upward to the outer void surrounding his planet
Earth. He has watched the twinkling stars and wondered
ct the never-ending dance of the planets around the Sun.
He has dreamed and written of the possibility of exploring
outer space and speculated endlessly on what he might
find could he but explore those silent spheres.
1 A practical beginning to these century long yearnings
has already been accomplished with man-made satellites
already girdling the Earth. Now, the next stage is under
Way —the daring attempt to explore the Moon and the
planets of our Solar System and their environments.

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration
has assigned Caltech's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL)
the responsibility for the Nation's program of unmanned
lunar, planetary, and interplanetary exploration. The
objectives of this program are to contribute to mankind's
fundamental knowledge of space and the space envi
ronment and to the development of the technology of
space exploration. For the next ten years, as larger booster
vehicles become available, spacecraft with ever-increas
ing scientific instrument payloads will be developed.
pien
fher
’ JPL will conduct the missions, utilizing these spacecraft
io orbit and land on the Moon, to probe interplanetary
space, and to orbit and land on the near and far planets.
f Earliest of these spacecraft will be the “Ranger" series
now being designed, developed and tested at JPL. The
mission of this particular series will include first, explora
tion of the environment and later the landing of instru
ment capsules on the Moon.
/ Subsequent steps will continue a constant probing for
the knowledge of what is beyond and wjll require all the
skills, ingenuity, courage, endurance, perception and
imagination that men can bring to the task.
Never before has such a wide vista of opportunity, or
c greater incentive been open to men trained in all fields
of modern science and engineering. Every day at JPL new
problems arise, new theories are advanced, new methods
tried, new materials used, and new principles discovered.
Wouldn't you like to be part of this exciting activity?
