The Longhorn*, a popular
choice in the poll for roar*, bad
a Btanaring total of tt first
place vote* from the 117 member*

only six picking tho Orange lower
^ than third, the Austin school
wound up with a total of 168
points (1 for 1st, S for tnd, S for
3rd, etc.) Arkansas, haring the
writers’ tag last year, was next
with 313H, with seven seeing n
Hog title; and Texas A4M picked
up IS championship rotes and is
third with 39«.
TCU is a surprise but a distant
5 fourth, and had a total of MSVfc
i points, and four writers had tho

Tech is fifth with 830; Baylor,
sixth, with 63m; SHU, seventh,
> with 665; and Rico was tabbed
for the basement with 811. Tech

for the flag in 1961. In the other
polls, Texas tied for second in
I960; was second in 1964; and
then tied for 4th in 1962, the
worst actual finish for UT since
1958. {
And here is how some who
like the Year of the Hems say it:
“It’s time for Texas to turn
the comer back to championship
row.”—Sam Blair, Dallas News.
H Bill Bradley, Chris Gilbert and
company should prove that *67 is
truly the year of the Homs.”

the title Thanksgiving! Texas
wins, 21-17."—Bill Enis, W BAP-
