Summer Judo Club
Ends Next Week
Next week’s final summer meet
ing of the Texas A&M Judo Club
will climax a successful round of
club activities.
Capt. Gibbs Dibrell, an instruc
tor for the club, said membership
at the beginning of the summer
totaled 15 but during the three
months has climbed to 30. About
one-half of the members are
women.
For the women in the club a
specialized program was initiated
which concentrated on the poise,
grace, agility and balance which
can be attained through the body
control techniques of judo. In
addition to its regular activities
the club sponsored a special self
defense program for the women
of the community.
Men in the club concentrated
on the more violent techniques
used in contest competition.
The club is preparing to send
four of its members to a contest
at Bergstrom A.F.B. near Austin.
Don Scafe, a graduate student in
oceanography, and Wayne Wheel
er, an Air Force lieutenant study
ing meteorology, will compete in
the senior division.

The back nine of the Texas
A&M Golf Course holds no fear
for J. E. “Jocko” Roberts, farms
manager at A&M. Roberts is
the first and only person to sink
two holes-in-one on the course
within a thirty-day span.
On July 9 Roberts, along with
Pat and Charles Griffith and Har
old Otto, all of Houtson, was play
ing the back nine. Roberts, using
a six iron, drove the ball 165
yards down the fairway of hole
No. 16 for the big one.
The two Griffiths were again
playing with Roberts on Aug. 6.
On hole No. 11, a 170-yard par
three, using a thx-ee wood, Ro
berts dropped in his second hole-
in-one.
According to Roberts, the com
ment at the time was one of his
companion’s “Oh my God, he’s
done it again.”
“After the first one I told
everyone that I was lucky,” Ro-
solidated High School, will com
pete in the junior division. Jeanne,
the only girl on the team, will be
competing almost entirely against
boys.
The Judo Club will reorganize
for the fall with a meeting Sept.
21 in the Memorial Student Cen
ter. Capt. Dibrell said the goal
of this fall’s club is to form a
five-man team which can compete
in judo contests throughout the
Southwest.

Texas A&M athletic trainer Bil
ly Pickard recently was named na
tional director elect for district
six of the National Athletic Train
ers Association.

during an election at the South
west Athletic Trainers meeting in
Waco. He will be installed at
the next national convention in
Houston next June.
berts said. “But now I just
tell them that I’ve simply figured
out how to do it.”
The ball used for the second
hole-in-one, a Titleist, is being
bronzed and made into a desk set
and the PGA is awarding Ro
berts a citation and a hole-in-one
card admitting him to the select
group of golfers across the na
tion who have made holes-in-one.
Kyle Field lights
To Make Stadium
SWC’s Brightest
When the final four lighting
structures on the east side of
Kyle Field go up Saturday, the
A&M stadium will become the
best lighted stadium in the South
west Conference.
The only stadium equal to Kyle
Field in a lighting system is the
Cotton Bowl in Dallas. The Cot
ton Bowl recently added addition
al lights to give it the same level
of light intensity as Kyle Field.
The four sets of lighting struc
tures on the west side were erect
ed last Saturday and now tower
165 feet in the air above the
field. The four additional struc
tures will be of equal height.
Each structure is composed of
two 15,000 pounds, 125-foot lamin
ated steel poles. The poles are
bolted to 40 foot tall concrete
supports which also extend 40
feet into the ground. Bolts hold
ing the poles to the supports
are 2y 2 inches in diameter and
the 10 feet long. Each pole is
fastened to the support with 1500
pounds of bolts.
There are about 700 floodlights
on the eight structures. The 1500
watt lamps are similar to those
used in the Astrodome and are
pre-focused before erected to pro
vide the maximum amount of light
on the field. Each globe will
light 900 square feet of the field
below and will provide over 100
foot-candles of light.
The area each light illuminates
has been determined by computer
and within the next two weeks
the field will be surveyed and
700 stakes driven into the ground
according to the computer-deriv
ed diagram.
Each light will be aimed at
its predetermined stake and lock
ed into place. This will insure
even distribution of light over
the playing area.
The lights can be controlled
from a room under the east side
of the stadium or from the press
box.
A tremendous amount of wir
ing is involved in the system.
In the control section there is
over 15,000 feet of wiring and
coiled within each of the poles is
over two miles of wiring encased
in tubing the size of an ordinary
garden water hose.

happiness is a hiqh hill
It had been a long climb. For various reasons, we were all glad to get
to the top of the hill. Jackie rolled down, over and over, to the inviting creek
at the bottom. Sally bolted off to climb the neighbor’s fence and croon to the
colts pastured there. Baby saw the buttercups and struggled to get down.
Jack dreamed over the rich soil of the south forty, while I was drawn by
the tall-spired church in the valley.
We’re happy in the home we’ve built on that hill. We’ve a dog and a cat
and swings for the children. Summers, we race down the hill to cool off in
the creek. Winters, we get the sled out and take it singing down the slope.
The kitchen windows frame a lovely view of the valley and our church.
On Sunday mornings, when its deep-throated bells call us clearly to wor
ship, we go down the hill together to its doors. We enter reverently and joy
fully, knowing that much of our happiness and security stems from God’s
love.
Wherever your church may be; in valley, on hill, or city street, you will
And the same glorious opportunity to sustain and strengthen your faith.
