A&M’s popular athletic trainer, Charles E. “Smokey”
Harper, is heading- into his last season as keeper of the
cripples and bandage boss. Smokey will retire in April after
10 years caring for the Aggies and 37 years as a trainer . . .
Baylor quarterback Don Trull on the Aggies’ defensive
prowess, “A&M, from the 15-yard line on in, is the toughest
team to move against.” . . . Elephant jokes have descended
on the world, but three elephant-sized SWC linemen aren’t
going to be jokes to the opposition. Tackle John Mims of Rice
tops the scales at 265, while A&M’s Ray Kubala checks in at
260 and Ken Henson, TCU center weighs 255 . . . Arkansas
and Texas, pre-season choices for the SWC crown, should
also share the crying-towel award. Frank Broyles of Arkan
sas and Darrell Royal of the Longhorns have been weeping
mightily about graduation losses, injuries and poor physical
shape of their squads. Here’s hoping the tears aren’t shed
in vain . . . Aggie-Ex Mike Clark, holder of SWC field goal
records, kicked three extra points for the NFL Philadelphia
Eagles in their 21-21 tie with Pittsburg Sunday . . . Texas
high school football started off with a bang and an upset
last weekend when San Angelo lost its season opener to
Borger 14-2. San Angelo had been unanimous choice for
Class 4-A state title, had been called “greatest high school
team in history.” . . . Coach Hank Foldberg is holding
practices behind locked gates this week. Rumors have been
heard that he is “bricking” the squad?

American, Harmon lists his choices
in October’s Argosy magazine.
THEN ON MONDAY, September
16 word was received of Kubala’s
All-American candidacy selection
by a 500 member vote of the Amer
ican Football Coaches Association.
This massive hunk of humanity
was one of 59 college stars chosen
as front-runners for football’s
highest honor. The gilt-edged list
was announced in the current issue
(Sept. 21) of TV Guide magazine
by Woody Hayes, association presi
dent and head coach at Ohio State.
Hayes has a talent in his own
back yard by the name of Paul
Warfield, the powerful running
halfback in the Buckeyes’ offense.
It will be interesting to see Kubala
get a crack at the hard running
back who was also selected by the
coaches.
OTHER THAN Kubala, Texas
boys landed nine other spots in the
selections; four in the Southwest
Conference.
Tech’s Dave Parks joined with
Scott Appleton and Tommy Ford
of Texas while Tommy Crutcher
was T.C.U.’s candidate.

Ags Draw Sellout Crowds
For 1 Home, 3 Road Games
If you plan on seeing the Aggies
play football this season and don’t
have tickets, you better get them
fast.
The 1963 season has yet to open
and already the Cadets are assur
ed of playing before at least four
sellout crowds.
Louisiana State, Ohio State and
Arkansas games are already sell
outs and only a few tickets remain
for the Texas game. Ohio State’s
stadium has a capacity of 81,000;
LSU has 68,000; and War Memorial
Stadium in Little Rock holds 42,
000. The A&M-Texas game will
draw a standing-room-only crowd
of 42,000.
Pat Dial, Athletic Department
business manager, said that there
are still some tickets left in the !
concrete stands for the Texas game ;

end bleachers. Plenty of seats are
available for the other three home
games — Houston, Baylor and
Southern Methodist, Dial said.
Should the Aggies get off to a |
good start and the rest of the ,
Southwest Conference come up to
expectations, Coach Hank Fold- j
berg’s squad could possibly per
form for a record total of more
than 450,000 in the 10 games.
