They can give Coach Tom Chan dler’s Southwest Conference cham pions a rousing sendoff to the Col lege World Series at Omaha, Neb., and they can aid the Brazos Valley Youth Association. The Aggies play Wynnewood State Bank of Dallas at Travis Park Saturday night and Structur al Metals of Seguin Tuesday night. Both games start at 7:30 p.m. All proceeds from both games will go to the Brazos Valley Youth ciation program, a summer sail program for youngsters in .3-18 age group. There are 24 teams in the program this summer, and Caldwell. These two games will be the tial competitive action for the Aggies prior to the eight-team College World Series which opens Monday, June 8. The Aggies will leave by charter bus on the morn ing of Friday, June 5, and will be headquartered in the Regis Hotel in Omaha. Their first game is at 2 p.m. Monday, June 8, against the District 4 representative. NEW AGGIE TRACKMEN Billy Schmidt, left, and Gilbert Smith, right, sprinters from Blinn Junior College in Bren- ham pose with Aggie track coach Charles Thomas after signing track scholarships to attend A&M University next fall. Both will be eligible for varsity competition next sea son. Smith had a 9.4 100-yard dash this past season and won the 220-yard dash in the National Junior College meet in the fine time of 21.6. Schmidt is a 9.8 sprinter who ran on Blinn’s relay teams. Cadet Eleven Seeks Of Maroon Gridiron Return Glory By HAROLD RATLIFF Associated Press Sports Writer A Baylor partisan, with tongue in cheek, said “We don’t want to win a championship; if we did we would lose all that publicity.” What he meant was that Bay lor’s long drouth in Southwest Con ference football — it reaches 40 COLLEGE WORLD SERIES Farmers Covered By Radio Network By MAYNARD ROGERS Sports Editor That faithful Aggie follower and man of the microphone, Mike Mistovich, is at it again. When the Aggies are in Oma ha, Neb., for the College World Series, Mistovich’s voice will be on the air for the second time this semester carrying the play- by-play of A&M teams in action to fans across the state. The last time this happened was during basketball season when the Aggies were on their way to their first Southwest Con ference cage championship in 41 years. A&M fans had the oppor tunity to pick up the games in every corner of the Lone Star state via the Aggie Basketball Network which Mistovich initi ated. In June, A&M sports fans can listen to Mistovich broadcast Ag gie games in the College World Series by way of the Aggie Base ball Network. Thus far, Mike has landed one radio station to the chain, sta tion KSIX of Corpus Christi, and letters have been set to stations in Dallas, Houston, Temple, Waco and San Antonio with offers to join the state-wide hookup. Stations from those cities were also on the Aggie Basketball Net work. Mistovich, who’s base station is Bryan’s KORA, said he will car ry all of the Aggie games during the series. He said A&M will play at least two games, and if they go all the way to the finals they will take the field seven times. The Aggies will start series play with a representative of NCAA District 4 on June 8, at 2 p.m. District 4 is comprised of years next fall — had furnished the main topic of discussion and if the Bears should win a title that would stop. Of course, Baylor followers had rather the publicity cease on losing but they have to keep their chins up and make the best of the situa tion. A&M has gone six years now not only failing to win a cham pionship but not even win half as many games as it lost. The record for the six years is 17-38-5. Folks have started pointing to the Aggies as one of the losingest schools in conference history. But did you know that A&M has the top victory record of all the con ference teams? Back in 1939-40 the Aggies won 19 straight games. They also have the second best winning record— 18 in a row in 1919-20. Also, in 1956-57 they won 14 straight. Texas, which has just finished winning the national champion ship, cannot equal even the Aggies’ second best record. Texas has 15-0 as its top showing. Texas Christian has a 14-game streak, Southern Methodist 13. Which all leads up to what can be expected at A&M this fall. They’re on the optimistic side. The reason is that there are 24 letter- ward using Weiss now. If a winning tradition means anything Weiss is the fellow to get the Aggies rolling. Weiss quarterbacked the most famous high school football team in the nation. It was at little Pflu- gerville, a village of 400 near Aus tin. He was the spark of the team through much of a mighty surge to 55 straight victories. That is the national record and should stand a long time. So Joe Weiss, who isn’t accus tomed to losing, went to A&M. He looked good with the freshmen al though he couldn’t lead them to total victory as he had his high school team. But they were strang ers to him at first; it wasn’t like playing with the kids you were raised up with. It may be 1965 before Weiss tries his hand at putting over the Aggie varsity but it’s a safe bet that Joe will either have them winning or know the reason why. Foldberg might like to find out schools in the Big Ten league i men, 15 of them seniors; some and other midwestern schools. The University of Minnesota took the Big Ten diamond title this week and will meet Ohio University in a playoff for the district representation. The Aggies met the Minnesota Gulden Gophers earlier in the spring for a two-game series and took both contests, 7-2 and 3-2. A&M finished first place in the SWC standings with a 12-3 rec ord and a 19-6 season mark. For the Aggies, coached by Tom Chandler, it was their first league title since 1959, and the second championship in six sea sons at A&M for Chandler. speed finally has come to the A&M gridironers, and Coach Hank Fold berg believes he has come up with a good passer—something he has needed most in his two seasons at Aggieland. The thrower is Dan Mcllhany, who is due to be the starting quar terback next season. But on the Aggie roster, with little being said about it, is a lad named Joe Weiss, a 6-4, 205-pound quarterback shifted to fullback. Joe might not get to play much this fall, since there are three ex perienced men ahead of him and he might be red-shirted, but Fold berg is leaning more every day to- The improvements in each unit constitute an entirely separate district and independent unit, and the 375.00 proposed assessment for the improvement in each unit is in no wise affected by any fact or circumstance 420.00 in connection with any other unit all to the same extent and as fully as if entirely separate proceedings 601.80 had separate hearings, and separate notices thereof ordered.

The deadline for such action was set for July 3. Reynolds was asked what was meant by appropriate action but would not elaborate. At a meeting with Reynolds in Chicago Monday, the National League umpires voted that the minimum acceptable pension in crease would be $300 in benefits for each year of service. The umpires contribute 5 per cent of their salary to the current pension plan which calls for $200 a year per man for each year of active service.
