AGGIES’ TINY WONDER
. . . Lloyd Curington displays running form.
Little Man Lloyd
Takes His Bumps
It takes plenty of courage for
a big man to play football, tak
ing the lumps and spills that go
with the game, but it must take
more than that for a little man
like Texas A&M’s Lloyd Curing-
ton.
Curington tips the scales at 158
pounds—if he bounces up and
down just a little. He’s only 5-10
and isn’t the fastest man around,
but he has earned two varsity
letters for the Aggies running
halfback and is coming back for
one more chance with the Maroon
and White.
He talks real smooth and takes
everything in stride. He even has
his own version about his size
handicap, “I just got to try a lit
tle harder and make fewer errors
while I’m out there,” he com
mented.
The slender halfback missed
spring training last year. “It
might’ve hurt me some,” he said.
“It kept me from being in real
good shape for the start of the
season.” But this year he’s knock
ing heads with all the big boys
^ in spring workouts and taking ad
vantage of the catch up time.
“I believe I’ve improved a whole
lot,” he said, “at least I feel I
have.”
“It takes a whole line and 11
men on a team to do good. Ev
erybody is trying to improve this
spring. We’ve made a vast im
provement under Coach Stal
lings.”
Curington said that he never
thought he could play college
football, he thought he was too
small—evidently size isn’t every
thing in the muscleman’s game.
Last year as a junior he carried
the ball 25 times in six games
and totaled 100 yards for an even
four yards per carry.
He didn’t make any stunning
predictions about the Aggies for
next season but said, “I think we
Army Reservists
To Help Stage
Shooting Matches
Army Reservists in the Bryan-
College Station area will support
the “world series of shooting,”
the National Matches at Camp
Perry, Ohio, this summer.
Some of the citizen-soldiers
from Central Texas will be among
the 1,653 Army Reservists in
cluded in the 2,801 Army Forces
bersonnel required to stage the
shooting.
Competitive shooting events
run from July 28 until Aug. 26.
However, support requirements
begin in June and will gradually
build up full strength during The
matches when 1,206 Army Re
servists will be needed during one
phase for support of the National
Matches.
Tours of active duty for train
ing will be available for 15, 45,
60 and 90-day periods. A wide
variety of military jobs must be
filled, including command and
staff, administration and supply,
provost marshal, finance and
(iata processing and the usual
housekeeping and range opera
tions. Positions are open in all
grades from private to colonel.
Army reserve support for the
National Matches will be per
formed on a voluntary basis.
Principal support will be pro
vided by non-unit Army Reserv
ists either in lieu of or in addi
tion to mandatory annual active
duty for training.
can do better than last year’s 3-7
record.”
What role the little man will
play for the Aggies is still to be
determined. Curington didn’t
know if he’d start this fall, but
said, “I’ll get my chance, and I’ll
do my best while I’m in there.”
If his best is any indication,
the Aggies should do pretty well.
Knicks Draft
Michigan Star
In 1st Round
NEW YORK bP>—Cazzie Rus
sell, everybody’s All - America
from Michigan, went to the New
York Knickerbockers as the No.
1 pick in the National Basketball
Association draft Wednesday and
Dave Bing of Syracuse was
snatched by the Detroit Pistons
as the No. 2 selection.
The 10 pro clubs dug through
a long list of college prospects
for eight rounds. They came up
with the names of 79 players who
now must be contacted to see if
they are willing to play pro ball
next season. Unlike the football
draft, there is no strong compe
tition for a basketball player’s
services in most cases.
There may be some supple
mentary selections later.
Russell said in Ann Arbor he
would make no decision until next
week about playing with the
Knicks. He said he also had an
offer from the Harlem Globe
trotters.
Eddie Donovan, Knicks general
manager, said he had met with
Russell about a week ago and
expected no serious problems. He
said he expected to use Russell,
6-foot-514, 218 pounds, at guard
but said he also could make a for
ward.
“He is a well rounded player
and we are happy to get him,”
said Donovan. “We considered
him the best in the country. I
have the idea he will be happy
to play with us.”
Bing, 6-3, 185, was next on the
Knicks’ list and right behind Rus
sell in Detroit’s plans. The Pis
tons, who had lost the first pick
to New York by the flip of a
coin, wasted no time drafting the
fine all-around performer from
Syracuse.
Clyde Lee, Vanderbilt’s 6-9 star,
was the third to be drafted in the
first round. He went to the San
Francisco Warriors. Although
Lee had agreed to play ball in
Milan, Italy with an amai£ur
team, he said he planned to talk
with the Warriors in the near
future about pro ball. He indi
cated he would consider any bids.
St. Louis, with the fourth pick,
took Lou Hudson, the 6-5 high-
scoring Minnesota ace who suf
fered a broken hand during the
season and was limited to 17
games. He was the top scorer
on the U.S. team in the World
University Games Tournament in
Budapest last summer.
Jack Marin of Duke, who
scored 558 points in 30 games,
was taken by the Baltimore Bul
lets, who were very happy to get
the man they regarded best after
Russell and Bing.
Cincinnati’s first-round pick
was Walt Wesley, 6-11 235-
pounder from Kansas, generally
regarded as one of the best big
men in the country. He averaged
close to 10 rebounds a game in
college.
