quick-dissolving tube formula works faster and
cleaner than ever.
non-greasy tube formula actually disappears in
your hair, leaves no white residue on your comb,
long-lasting tube formula keeps your hair in place.
Maybe your girl will muss up your hair, but not
much else will. Give new tube-formula Wildroot

The Rockport lad started things
off right Wednesday night by tak
ing first in the parallel bars and
the long horse vaulting. His rou
tine on the rings, the third event,
won him a second place. Last
night, he took first in the high
bar competition.
Another standout in the meet
was a Bryan product from F-3.
On Wednesday night, Pinky Carll
took firsts in the rings and side
horse competition. He had two
seconds also; in the long horse
vaulting and free exercise.
Winner in the free exercise
Wednesday night was George
Sprague of Sqd. 13.
The first event in last night’s
competition was the timed rope
climb. Contestants were required
to start in a sitting position and
climb a 20-foot rope, using only
their hands. When the contestant
touches the wooden disk at the
20-foot level on the rope, time is
stopped.
Results of 'the rope climb were:
C. H. Crawford of Sqd. 8 first
with a time of 10.7 seconds. In
second place was Ben Martinez of
A-3 with a time of 16.3. The
other two entries’ hands slipped
in their attempts and they were
forced to withdraw because of lost
time.
The next scheduled event was
tumbling but there were no on-the-
spot entries and those who had
entered previously failed to show
up.
Only two men entered the dif
ficult competition of the horizon
tal high bar. Tom McCabe man
aged to edge J. Y. Humber of A-3
by a slim three-tenths of a point.
McCabe’s score was 13.3.
The last event was an 8-bounce
routine on the trampoline. None
of the four entries was satisfied
with their first-round performance,
so a second try was allowed for
all contestants.
M. L. Patton of C-3 came back,
after having the lowest score on
the first round, to win the event
with 13.6 points. John Killings-
worth, the first round leader, took
second with 10.9. McCabe took
third with 10.6 and W. P. Mat
thews of the White Band was
fourth with 7.8.

ually held by the Bryan JC’s and

Broussard Again
On All-SWC Team
For the third successive year,
Aggie forward Carroll Broussard
has been chosen as a member of
the All-Southwest Conference bas
ketball team. The 6-5 senior from
Port Arthur was honored Tuesday
night in G. Rollie White, with a
plaque indicating the student
body’s gratitude for his four years
service here.
The all-conference basketball
team consists of six men this year
because the coaches, while agree
ing on the top four players, of
whom Broussard was a member,
could not get together on the fifth.
The choices were: Jan Louder-
milk of SMU, Del Ray Mounts and
Harold Hudgens of Texas Tech,
Broussard, Phil Reynolds of TCU
and Jerry Carlton of Arkansas.
Broussard got all but one of the
votes in the coaches’ selection.
Mounts and Loudermilk were
unanimous choices.
Broussard has broken every
scoring record at A&M. He wound
up fourth in scoring this season
in the conference behind Louder
milk, Carlton and Reynolds.
