Jerry Windham
Jerry Windham returns to the lineup this Saturday night
at G. Rollie White Coliseum when the Aggies meet the
Lamar Tech Cardinals. Windham saw his first action of
the season in the Memphis State contest. The 6-6, 213-
pound junior from Hamilton was a big asset to the Aggies
last year, especially in the rebounding department.
INTRAMURALS
Sqd. 8 took the freshman intra-
mural basketball ^championship
last night as they defeated D-3,
44-30. Two shutout football games
were played in yesterday’s clear,
crisp afternoon.
In the Class B basketball finals
last night, Jim Griffin and Paul
Crank of Sqd. 8 dropped 12 points
each to lead their outfit to the
Corps championship. Bill Milam
of D-3 was game high-point man
with 16 and his teammate, David
Dansby, had 12.
Neither team was particularly
sharp in its shooting. Sqd. 8’s
height, which enabled them to
claim most of the rebounds, made
the difference. John Bush was
Sqd. 8’s best man on- the boards.
In Class A football yesterday
E-l beat E-2, 6-0. Sqd. 12 blanked
F-3, 16-0. A-l won by forfeit
over B-3.
In civilian football the Pan
Americans forfeited to L,aw Hall.
Yesterday’s bowling results are:
E-2 over F-3, A-l over C-3, Sqd.
12 over D-l by forfeit and Sqd. 3
over Sqd. 11 by forfeit.
Yesterday’s ping-pong: Maroon
Band over Sqd. 14, C-2 over B-l
and Sqd. 10 over C-l by forfeit.
42th Annual Texas Schoolboy Football
Comes To Crashing Close This Week
By HAROLD V. RATLIFF
Associated Press Sports Writer
The forty-second annual Texas
schoolboy football race comes to
a crashing close this week. There
will v'be four state championships
decided with Wichita Falls and
Galena Park fighting for the top
prize—the Class AAAA crown.
The campaign hasn’t been much
different from those of the past
but it still has been the biggest
event of the year in Texas. The
scope of the Texas Interscholastic
League is difficult to comprehend
unless you are associated directly
with it. Even then some of the
figures that are authenticated by
the League office sound like a
Texas brags program.
More than 900 schools have
football teams, ranking from
squads of 60 down to six-man
football. Each season 8,000,000
paid admissions are recorded.
Some of the high schools outdraw
the minor colleges.
Largest Crowd
The largest crowd to ever see
a high school football game in
Texas came in 1945 when 47,000
jammed into the Cotton Bowl to
watch Highland Park and Waco
play a 7-7 tie. It would have been
bigger but that was all the bowl
held then. Once state champion
ship games got more than 20,000
even if they were played on neu
tral fields where most of the
crowd was made up of fans from
the two schools.
The big crowds for the final
games are no more, however, be
cause there are four divisions and
four state championship games.
The four games will draw more
combined than the one game they
used to hold when there was a
single division.
It is amazing to see crowds of
15,000 to 20,000 turn out for

hundreds of miles away. For in
stance this week Dumas will
travel from far up in the Pan
handle down to Dallas to meet
Nederland, which comes from
Southeast Texas. Dallas is about
midway between the two cities.
It’s a safe bet that few people
will be left in the two towns when
the teams are playing in Dallas.
Many Traditions
There are many traditions in
Texas schoolboy football. Ever
since the early twenties, when the
League first started, the schools
have been trying to emulate Waco.
That was the school that was in
the finals six straight times and
won four championships under the
great coach Paul Tyson.
No school yet has been able to
equal Waco’s feat of being in the
finals nine times from 1922 until
1948—27 years. Abilene and
Wichita Falls are almost there—
each has been in the finals eight
times, counting Wichita Falls’
trip this season.
Abilene already has bettered
Waco’s championship record. Wa
co has won five titles and tied for
one. Abilene has won six. Next
in line is Breckenridge, which has
won four and tied for two but not
all in one division.
Wichita Falls Has Won Four
Wichita Falls has won four, is
favored to make it five this week.
Amarillo has won four.
Stamford set a record odf four
championships in five years but
had one of the titles taken away
from it because of a rules viola
tion.
You can talk about the South- j but the biggest sports show in
west Conference with its almost/Texas is the schoolboy football
