If your major
is listed here,
IBM would like
to talk with you
February 15th
or 16th.
Sign up for an interview at your placement office-even if
you’re headed for graduate school or military service.
Maybe you think you need a technical background to work
for us.
Not true.
Sure we need engineers and scientists. But we also need
liberal arts and business majors. We’d like to talk with you even
if you’re in something as far afield as Music. Not that we’d
hire you to analyze Bach fugues. But we might hire you to
analyze problems as a computer programmer.
What you can do at IBM
The point is, our business isn’t just selling computers.
It’s solving problems. So if you have a logical mind, we need
you to help our customers solve problems in such diverse areas
as government, business, law, education, medicine, science,
the humanities.
Whatever your major, you can do a lot of good things at
IBM. Change the world (maybe). Continue your education
(certainly, through plans such as our Tuition Refund Program).
And have a wide choice of places to work (we have over 300
locations throughout the United States).
What to do next
We’ll be on campus to interview for careers in Marketing,
Computer Applications, Programming, Research, Design and
Development, Manufacturing, Field Engineering, and Finance
and Administration. If you can’t make a campus interview, send
an outline of your interests and educational background to
Mr. C. E Cammack, IBM Corporation, 1447
Peachtree St., N.E., Room 810, Atlanta, Ga. jT jQJ jA/j?
30309. We’re an equal opportunity employer.
The Aggies pulled the same
trick with their win over Texas.
The Maroon and White is now
at 4-4 in a third place tie with
the Austin cagers.
Rice is all alone in fourth at
3-5, with Texas Tech and South
ern Methodist bringing up the
rear at 2-6.
THE OWLS OF Coach Don
Knodel won’t think they are going
to face the same team tonight
that they lost to last week in
Houston. In that 75-66 win for
the Aggies, the Maroon and White
hardwooders threw the hall away
20 times hut maintained a res-
pectible relationship with the bas
ket to pull away with a victory.
Saturday night, the Aggies
knocked the turnovers total down
to three as they put on an im
pressive run - and -shoot perfor
mance before 7,900.
The Aggies tonight, will be
hoping to make it two straight
over Rice as they did over Texas.
COACH SHELBY Metcalf will
start the same lineup tonight,
that has got the call the last two
games. Sonny Benefield, Ronnie
Peret, Mike Heitmann, John Un
derwood and Billy Bob Barnett
(high for the Aggies Saturday
night with 32) will lineup for the
opening tipoff.
Rice, led by Larry Miller and
Greg Williams, will try and coun
ter with the same offense that
nearly toppled Baylor. Knodel has
been disappointed with the Owls’
performance in recent weeks and
hopes his team may be on the
way back. The Owls are now at
5-13 for the season.
The Aggies are 10-8 on the year
after the Texas triumph.
AFTER TONIGHT’S match the
Aggies will have five games left
on their 1967-68 schedule. It goes
without saying, that the Aggies
must win them all if they are to
figure at all in the SWC title
scramble.
If Metcalf’s crew can continue
the aggressive play they have
displayed in their last two games,'
that task will not be as great
as it seems. However, Saturday
night’s game was also one of
those occurances that makes
sports activity so intriguing.
It was a night where every
thing worked, except defense,-
Metcalf said after the game that!
he was glad that there was a
good turnout to see one of those
college basketball rarities where,
offensively, everything did work.
THE GAME DID not start oat
like it was going to be a record-
breaking contest. The Aggiesi
missed their first shot and Texas:
didn’t score for two minutes. But
when the two teams started to
find the range, the baskets were
easy prey for the two teams, i
When the two teams retired for
the halftime break, the Aggies
enjoyed a eight-point bulge at 58.
48. With both teams shooting
around the 60 percent mark, it
was expected that the second half
would see some of the hot-shoot
ing cool off in the second twenty
minutes of play.
Texas did even better in the
second half, but because of some
sloppy play and fine defensive
board rebounding by the Aggies,
the Longhorns couldn’t keep pace
THE AGGIES set two tear
records and tied one conference
mark in the victory. The 11"
points set a new record for point:
at A&M, while the 48 field goals
was a new high. They tied the
conference high point mark and
narrowly missed setting a ne»-
pinnacle as a final shot was nul
lified by the final buzzer.
It is interesting to note that
Texas Tech had also scored 111
points last season against guess
who?—TEXAS. The total points
established a new conference top
per while the 78 total rebounds
tied a SWC record that had been
set last season by the Aggies and
TCU.
A RECORD-TYING BASKET
