TRE BATTALION
Sprint Medley Relayers Stay
Unbeaten After Texas Relays
By LARRY SMITH
Battalion Sports .Editor
A&M’s Aggie track team scored
only oue first at the Texas Relays
in Austin Friday and Saturday,
but that one victory was a big
one.
Coach Charlie Thomas’ sprint
medley relay team composed of
Jerry Anderson, Ed Williams, Geor
ge Tedford and Thad Crooks took
that race with a great time of
3:21.4 to. I’emain unbeaten. With
the victory the Aggies beat the
team who had the top time in the
nation in the sprint medley i’e-
lay — Oklahoma State. The Cow
boys finished second to the Ag
gies, only one-tenth of a second
behind the kicking Crooks.
Anderson started off the 220-
220-440-880 race with a 22.'2 220-
yard dash. He handed off to
Williams who contributed a fine

21.0 220. As Williams was hand
ing off to Tedford, there was a
foul-up in the steps and Williams
had to dive for Tedford. Williams
made the handoff successfully but
he tore up the cinder track and
also his arm in the process.
After this almost catatrophe,
Tedford turned in a starring 47.1
quarter, his best of his career.
Crooks took the baton with a
slight lead and held off his op
ponents with a 1:50.0 half-mile.
This relay produced some top
times and if they had been run
from the blocks, the quarter by
Tedford and the half by Crooks
would have been an A&M school
record.
✓ “I’m really proud of the hoys
and their performances at the Tex
as Relays,” admitted the appreci
ative Thomas. Everyone all did
well; I just wish the sprint med
ley was an event in the Southwest
Conference meet.”

The only other Aggie to place in
