KEEPSAKE DIAMOND RINGS, BOX 90, SYRACUSE, NEW YORK
course May 2 to assist the Aggie
program.
The best score by Billy Martin-
dale and Bobby Nichols will be
the goal for competitors in the
1966 A&M International Golf
Tournament. Players beating the
Aggie duo’s best in the Former
Students Association sponsored
tourney may win trophies and
medals.
Tournament particulars may be
obtained from local course shops
and gallery tickets for the
Nichols-Martindale match are on
sale at locations in College Sta
tion and Bryan.
Nichols, Aggie who helped
guide the Maroon to the first
of four straight Southwest Con
ference golf championships,
turned pro in 1959. Through the
Jacksonville Open the 1962 Ben
Hogan Award winner has pocket
ed $221,163.02 in PGA winnings.
Coming back from a wracked
and torn situation after an auto
accident that hospitalized him
for 96 days, Nichols has carded
wins in the 1964 PGA, Carling
World Open, St. Petersburg
Open, Houston Classic, Greater
Seattle Open and finished in the
top 10 of 12 events in 1961. The
same year he tied for second in
the Canadian Open and lost a
sudden death playoff in the On
tario Open.
Without winning a tourney,
Martindale carved out $44,583.10
in official money, 17th on the
list, as a sophomore in 1965 after
a $4,892.80 abbreviated rookie
season. His 1966 total is $2,025.
The 27-year-old bespectacled
Martindale put second place fin
ishes back-to-back at the Sahara
Invitational and Almaden Open
last October. He played well in
the Houston Classic and Texas
Open in 1964 but had his best
chance for a win in that year’s
Greater New Orleans Open.
He placed a 274 on the score-
board and watched Dick Mayer
hole a wedge shot on the 18th
green to beat him by a stroke.
Both Martindale and Nichols
were stellar football and basket
ball players in high school,
Nichols at Louisville’s St. Xavier
High and Martindale at Jackson
ville, Texas. The auto accident
took care of Bobby’s future in
either sport, but Martindale, an
all-state quarterback, turned
down several football scholar
ship offers to accept a golf
scholarship at A&M.
Both are married. Bobby and
Nancy Nichols have a son and
a daughter. Bill and Dianna Mar
tindale have a daughter, born
late in 1965.

TOP AGGIE TENNIS PLAYERS
Luis Rojas, who helped the Texas Aggies blast the Univer
sity of Texas in tennis Tuesday, demonstrates his form
which makes him one of the top layers in the Southwest
Conference. The Aggies beat the Longhorns, 5-1, at the
A&M courts. The win was A&M’s eleventh in Southwest
conference to go with only one loss. Texas’ record is 8-3.
Matson Hurts Knee Again;
To Miss SMU Meet Saturday
Randy Matson, who was just
getting back into form after a
round with basketball, re-injured
his knee during a weight-lifting
exercise.
The knee, which has been
bothering Matson for most of his
athletic carer, was badly twisted
in February in a basketball game
against the Texas Christian
Horned Frogs in Fort Worth.
Matson played the rest of the
basketball season with the knee
heavily taped.
When the world’s greatest shot
putter started track workouts,
the knee kept Matson from doing
heavy weight training which he
thinks helps more than actually
throwing the shot in practice.
The injury will keep Matson
out of the Southern Methodist
meet this weekend, but Emil
Mamaliga, Matson’s weight-lift
ing coach, said Matson should be
ready for competition Tuesday
night when A&M hosts Baylor
for a dual meet.
Matson last week threw the
iron ball 65-4>/£, his best of the
year.

With this one exception,
GT&E holds the lead in remote control
We leave it up to the dexterity of
youth to manipulate slot cars. But
concede nothing to anyone in the
matter of making machines act as
they should without human inter
vention ... even if they’re sepa
rated by hundreds of miles.
The lead is supplied by two of
GT&E’s family of companies.
Automatic Electric manufactures
the control systems, and Lenkurt
Electric the equipment to trans
mit the control signals over wire
lines or microwave radio. In com
bination, the systems are used to
automate gas and oil pipelines,
electric utility complexes, and the
operations of railroads.
The Conitel™ 2000 supervis
ory and control system—new from
Automatic Electric — can report
the status of 180 devices in as lit
tle as .290 seconds.
Lenkurt’s new Journal Data
TYansmission transmits “hotbox”
information instantly so railroad
controllers may stop trains before
costly accidents occur.
Automatic remote control is just
one of many ways GT&E is serv
ing the national interest. Our total
activities are covered in a booklet
you can obtain from your place
