Memories
At 85, Nick Altrock poses in a farewell gesture at Griffith
Stadium in Washington where he pitched baseball 68 years
ago. Altrock, who w r on 63 games in a three-year span for
the Chicago White Sox before joining the Washington
American League club in 1912, said the first time he
pitched in Griffith Stadium was in 1898 while playing for
Louisville. He watched the Minnesota Twins beat the
Washington Senators 6-3 in what may be the last major
league game in the park—the Senators may open next sea
son in a new municipal stadium. (AP Wirephoto)

Chances Are That
TU-OU Contest
Will Be Televised
AUSTIN (IP) — Chances are
good the Texas-Oklahoma football
game will be televised in Dallas
and Austin, Ed Olle, University of
Texas athletic director said Wed
nesday.
Olle said televising the game
must be approved by the National
College Athletic Association and
accepted by the ABC television
network.
He said an oral agreement has
been made by phone, and formal
confirmation was expected from
the NCAA and ABC in a few days.
Olle said ABC already has
scheduled another football game
for nationwide showing the week
end of Oct. 14, but, if the NCAA
approves, ABC will substitute the
Texas-Oklahoma game for the na
tional contest in Dallas and Aus
tin only.
Winners Lead In
SWC Statistics
Special To The Battalion
Baylor, Rice, TCU and Texas,
the only victors last Saturday, mo
nopolized the greatest gains and
the longest plays, leaving only a
few consolation prizes for the less
fortunate. Texas A&M, which tied
Houston in one of the eight cur
tain-raisers, ran the most rushing
plays (54); SMU did the best
punting (averaging 44.2), while
Arkansas had the best kickoff re
turn average.
Familiar names like James Sax
ton (Texas), Billy Cox (Rice),
Sonny Gibbs and Buddy lies
(TCU), Bobby Ply and Ronnie
Bull (Baylor) dominated the high
mai'ks for players, but unheralded
performers such as Jeri’y Cook
(Texas), Butch Blume (Rice),
Jerry Spearman (TCU), Lewis Al
bright (SMU) and Garry Thomas
(TCU) grabbed some of the laur
els.
Cook was the leading ball car
rier for the opening week (110
yards) and was a close runner-up
to TCU’s Gibbs in total offense.
Blume was one of the more versa
tile leaders, taking second-best
honors in longest field goal, long
est punt return and longest inter
ception runback.
Spearman, son of a former TCU
great, kicked the game-winning
36-yard field goal against Kansas
to lead that category, while Al-
bi’ight, promoted this week to
first-string duty at SMU, posted
the longest punt return (20 yards)
in the opening round.
Garry Thomas, one of TCU’s
sophomore twins from Athens, was
credited with the longest punt (55
yards).
Nixon To Run
For Governor
In California
LOS ANGELES CP) — For
mer Vice President Richard M.
Nixon announced Wednesday
night he will run for governor
of California next year.
He also declared he will serve
the full four-year gubernatorial
term, if elected, and not enter
the 1964 presidential race.
Nixon told a news conference:
“I have two decisions to an-
“First I shall not be a candi
date for president in 1964.
“Second, I shall be a candi
date for governor in 1962.”
The 48-year-old Californian
said: “The next governor must
be a man who will devote not
part but all of his energies to
this job.”

Babe Zaharias winning- just about
everything; offered.
But Nelson retired, Hogan fi
nally gave up all except a few
tournaments per year, Demaret
and Mangium took things easy
and played only occasionally and
the great Zaharias died.
New Crop Of Golfers
So another crop of golfers had
to come up. They finally have ar
rived in a bunch and Texas is on
the way back to the top again.
Jacky Cupit, Dave Marr, Butch
Baird, Rex Baxter and other
youngsters have been showing- up
well on the tour. Cupit, especial
ly, gave signs of becoming one of
the top men. He won one tourna
ment and placed high in a flock
of others.
Old reliables Billy Maxwell,
Jack Burke and Don January won
tournaments, Maxwell taking three
and having his best year yet. Even
the stay-at-homes are doing well.
For instance, Earl Stewai-t, a resi
dent pro now, won the Dallas Open
against one of the strongest fields
for any tournament of the year.
Betsy Rawls still is one of the
greats of women’s golf and Mick
ey Wright, the kingpin of the
ferns, now is a Dallas resident.
Amateurs Are Dazzling
The amateurs are beginning to
look like that dazzling array of
25 years ago. Dudley Wysong of
McKinney has just finished going
to the finals of the national ama
teur, Herb Dui-ham won the Trans-
Mississippi, Ed Hopkins showed
up well in several tournaments, in
cluding the national amateur, and
Richard Crawford and Homero
Blancas were among the top col
legiate golfers.
Texas may never again have
five like Hogan, Nelson, Demaret,
Mangrum and Babe Zaharias at
one time but it could have twice as
many whose pooled talents would
exceed that great five and would
at least be the most top players
from one state.
Texas Is Tops
Texas takes a back seat to no
one in golf and probably never
will. Its players have won all the
great championships — the Na
tional Open, PGA, national ama
teur, national collegiate, British
Open and the national titles for
women.
O’Toole Will Probably Start
For Redlegs Tn World Series
By The Associated Press
And the current crop
to repeat those feats.
going
CINCINNATI — Jim O’Toole,
power-throwing southpaw of the
National League kings, the Cin
cinnati Reds, is the best prospect
to start the World Series, Mana
ger Fred Hutchinson indicated
Wednesday.
Hutch didn’t pick a series start
er against the New York Yankees,
because the Reds have three more
regular-season games to play at
Pittsburgh this weekend.
But he tabbed O’Toole to start
Friday and said he would continue
his regular rotation, w i t h Joey
Jay, 21-game winner, pitching Sat
urday and veteran Bob Purkey
wrapping up the season Sunday.,
That puts O’Toole squarely on
the spot Oct. 4 for the first series
game in Yankee Stadium.
The Reds whipped Chicago
Tuesday afternoon, 6-3, then sweat
out a twi-night doubleheader be
tween second-place Los Angeles
and Pittsburgh.
The Dodgers won the first®.
6-3, ami it wasn’t until lO Ei
when Pittsburgh prevailed,&<j|r
the nightcap that the Red* £.
nant was clinched.
It added fuel to the gas
binge in years in staid CinriiJ
with a crowd flooding downiu
Fountain Square to greet the!
after fans numbered in the!;
sands met the team at tk
