places at lowest cost. In fact Greyhound costs less
thantrains, planesor drivingyourself. For economy.
GO GREYHOUND .. . AND LEAVE THE DRIVING TO US.
No other form of public transportation has fares so low. For example:

A&M’s basketball program will-
be under new management when
cage season rolls around.
Shelby Metcalf, who is new to
the job of head coach while not
new to Aggies, replaced Bob Ro
gers following the past hoop year
and promptly proceeded to set the
stage for improvement upon the
popular Rogers’ outstanding record.
Metcalf, an amiable guy who
is always ready with a witty re
mark or some East Texas philoso
phy, has already recruited some
of the top high school ball players
in the state.
The recruits include Reggie Gil
breath, a 6-7, all-state center
from Kennit, and Curly Lenox,
brother of the Aggies’ Bennie
from League City.

HARD LUCK MAN

Cmdermen Coach Thomas
Hopes For Luck Next Year
saying he would not sign a con
tract for next year if there was
any substantial cut in financial
support for Texas track scholar
ships. Athletic Director Darrell
Royal denied any cut was planned.
ANOTHER story predicted there
would be trobule at Texas if Pat
erson were to relieve Lovvorn.
It said some members of the
Texas track team were even con
sidering changing schools.
Later, Patterson was hung in
effigy on the university campus.
Patterson, 49, a hurdler at Rice
in the 1930’s, went to Baylor in
1955 after coaching at the Univer
sity of Houston 11 years. He di
rected Baylor to its first track
championship in history in 1960.
His teams grabbed two more SWC
titles, including this year’s meet
at Fayetteville, Ark.
Track Coach Charlie Thomas
closed out his fifth year as cinder
mentor with a third place in the
Southwest Conference track and
field meet but the statistics are
far from indicative of the fine
job he has done for the Aggies.
For the past two seasons,
Thomas has fielded outstanding
squads despite damaging injuries
to key personnel who were counted
on heavily to gain some points for
the Cadets.
Last season three of his top
sprinters were sidelined — R. E.
Merritt with mononucleosis, Pat
Mitchell with a broken leg and
Curtis Roberts with multiple leg
injuries.
This season Merritt and Mitchell
were troubled by leg injuries and
were not able to hit their peak.
Thomas was dealt severe blows
when George Tedford and Ted Nel
son had leg trouble late in the sea
son.
Tedford was A&M’s outstanding
sprinter in the 1962 SWC meet
while Nelson is a heralded sopho
more who held the national 440 re
cord and has set several school re-
coi’ds.
Both recovered in time to com
pete in the conference meet, but
neither were at their best.
However, all this is in the past
for Thomas and he will have a good
nucleus returning to shoot for the
1964 title.
