Sports Editor “We will beat the hell out of the Shorthorns,” predicts burly Fish tackle Howard Van Loon. “I feel that we found ourselves in the last half of the Texas Tech game.” The Fish are winless so far this season and the Shorthorns are undefeated. The 6’ 2”, 230-pounder says that key injuries and mistakes have hampered the Fish this sea son. He added “I believe that we have just as good a team as any other freshman club in the conference.” The mainstay of the Fish line this season has been the former all-stater from Rotan. Fish Coach Dick Johnson says, “Van Loon has played excellent ball for us this year.” The fledging Aggie lettered four years in football at Rotan. He captured all-area honors while a spphomore, made all-state his junior year and was picked to the super all-state team. After his senior year he was selected to play in the Big 33 game in Her- shey, Penn. He was elected co captain of the Texas squad by his teammates. He took time out from football to letter three years in basket ball and four years in track. While a sophomore he won the state Class A discus and shot- put crown. His junior year he won the state discus title and set a still standing mark of 175’ 3%”.

He took part in the Red Raid er Relays and threw the shot farther than any other high school student in the nation with a mark of 64’ 5”. With Olympian Randy iMatson in the Varsity shotput and Van Loon as a fresh man, A&M should sweep the< weight next year. Van Loon has been a constant defensive threat as well as an offensive terror this year. He was constantly in both the Bay lor and Texas Tech backfield. The former Rotan “Yellowham- mer” ace feels that he plays bet ter on offense than on defense. However he must not be doing too bad as he has averaged 50 minutes a game this season. Van Loon choose A&M for his college home because of the fam ous Aggie traditions, saying, “I like the way that the Ags al ways seem to stick together.” The P. E. major plans to make coaching his career after trying his hand in professional football. Aggie supporters will be glad when the huge freshman dons his varsity uniform. If he con tinues to play the hardnosed brand of football that he has ex hibited so far this season he will be a prime contender for coach Hank Foldberg’s starting eleven next year. TACKLE HOWARD VAN LOON . . . goes against Shorthorns Saturday. Handball Court Hours Set Some students have complained that there are not enough hand ball courts available from 5-6 p.m., C. E. Tishler, head of the Depart ment of Health and Physical Edu cation, said Wednesday. This has occurred because during this hour the Intramural games are played. The handball courts are available after the intramural games till 10 p.m. but some stu dents have complained that this time interferes with their studies. “The need for having the courts open regular hours is to reduce damage to the courts,” he ex plained. Tishler said that the depart ment doesn’t reserve handball courts on an individual basis for recreation. They will reserve courts for classes, intramurals, clubs and contests.
