Seniors Treat Footballers
To Hensel Park Steak Fry
Hensel Park was the scene last
night of a steak fry given by the
Class of ’63 for Head Football
Coach Hank Foldberg, his staff
and team.
The purpose of the gathering - ,
according to Charlie Blaschke,
senior class president, was to en
able the football players and sen
iors to get better-acquainted.
After the meal, which consist
ed of steak, rolls, potato salad
and beans, and which was prepared
and served by J. Gordon Gay and
his. wife, Foldberg spoke to the

been picked in the top ten in all
pre-season surveys. McClendon is
an experienced coach and will fol
low the three-platooning system
left by Dietzel.
HOPING TO HONE his three
units, the White team, the Go team
and the Chinese Bandits, to sharp
performance, McClendon has spent
the final’ four days before the
opener on intensive polish work
with little contact.
Standout halfback Jerry Stovall
should have his best season as a
senior for the Tigers and will be
the big factor for the Cadets to
reckon with. Running with him in
the backfield are seniors Jimmy
Field, Steve Ward and promising
soph Danny LeBlanc.
McClendon hopes to field a bet
ter attacking team this fall with
experienced ground - gainers on
both the White and Go teams.
He expects the defense to be
weaker, however.
In the past this old rivalry has
produced 10 wins for the cadets,
12 losses and two ties. For three
quarters last year the Aggies held
a 7-2 lead, and it took a 62-yard
punt return by Wendell Harris in
the fourth period to lead LSU
from behind to a 16-7 win.

his approval of .the picks, and cit
ed it as indicative that his team
has good judgement.
Foldberg went on to tell the
seniors, I think you are going to
be real proud of this football team
of yours.” He then added, “It’s
yours tonight, but if we get beat
Saturday night it will be the

The new Aggie mentor went on
to put everyone at ease by pok
ing fun at himself and team mem

Blaschke termed the steak fry,
which was attended by about 250
students,^a success.
