—Peter Snell, new world record
-holder for the mile, said Tuesday
he does not want to run that dis-
rsl tance at an indoor meet in Los
s t| Angeles Feb. 10.
He made the statement in com
menting on reports that organ
izers of the meet had switched
original plans to enter him in the
600 or 1,000 yards and planned
to run him in the mile.
Snell said: “As far as I am con
cerned, I accepted the shorted dis
tance and that is what I will be
running. It seems the organizers
have made the change only after
I broke the mile record. I had not
wanted to run another hard mile
race this season.”

Saxton Signs
Pro Contract
DALLAS (A*) — James Saxton,
the All-America back from the
University of Texas, signed yes
terday to play with the Dallas
Texans of the American Football
League.
Saxton, also drafted by the St.
Louis Cardinals of the National
Football League, is considered
small for a pro player. He weighs
165 and is 5 feet 11.
But he is a scat runner who set
a record for yardage at the Uni
versity of Texas with 847 in 107
carries for an average of 7.91.
Texas had a 10-1 record this
year, and the one loss was on a
day when Saxton sat out most of
the game with an injury. The loss
was to TCU.

RCA, builder of Tiros Satellite,
needs young engineers today
for spectacular achievements tomorrow
Tiros has broadened man’s scope of the heavens
and earth. From an orbiting observation post high
in the sky, it transmits a new wealth of meteorolog
ical information to earth-bound stations below.
Tiros is only one of many RCA successes in the
wide, wide world of electronics. And as the horizons
of electronics steadily expand, the need for more
and more competent and creative engineers in
creases in direct ratio. That’s why RCA, now in
the forefront of electronic progress, offers such
tremendous opportunities for Electrical Engineers,
Mechanical Engineers, and Physicists.
If you already know what you want to do in
engineering . .. and are qualified, RCA can offer
you direct assignments in your chosen field, and
back you up with training and guidance by ex
perienced engineers.
If you’re not quite sure which direction you want
to go .. . RCA’s Design and Development Special
ized Training will help to point the way. You’ll
receive full engineering salary while you progress
through engineering assignments that give you a
clear picture of various fields you might choose.
Or, if you’d like to continue your graduate study
... RCA will pay full cost—tuition, fees and ap
proved text—while you go to school or study two
days a week, and work at RCA three days.
These are only a few of the many reasons for getting
all the facts about a career with RCA. See your
placement officer now about getting together with
an RCA representative, for an interview on:
