The intramural story for Thursday:
The new Class B football league got off to a flying start
with seven games being played despite afternoon showers.
On field one, A-l defeated D-l by a score of 6-0. D-l twice
drove inside the 20-yard line but each time the defense of
A-l held.
On field two, the score was the same, 6-0, but this time
it was E-l over B-l. F-l showed their strength by pounding
C-l, 26-0 on field three. On field four, Squadron 4 whipped
Sqd. 1, 26-6. G-l and C-2 battled to an 8-8 tie on field seven
but G-l was awarded the victory by virtue of more penetra
tions.
The first six Class A basketball games were played
Tuesday with these results. A-l edged D-l, 21-17, led by
the 10 points of Bill Richardson. E-l dominated B-l by
running up a 43-13 score. Sqd. 10 defeated Sqd. 1, 23-18, in
the third afternoon game.
In the night action, C-l slipped by F-l, 27-25, with Rusk
hitting for 13 points. Sqd. 2 beat Sqd. 5, 32-20, and in the
last game, Sqd. 11 downed. Sqd. 3, 34-14.
In Class A horseshoes, F-l beat C-l three matches to
none. In all of the other matches, one or more of the teams
failed to show up and thereby forfeited the game. Check
the schedules in the future to avoid such forfeits.
Class C handball has almost concluded with league
competition and the playoffs will probably start next week.
In league A, Keathley, Hughes, and Fowler will all have a
shot at first place. Schumacher Hall has league B all
wrapped up with a 4-0 record.
Law Hall is just one victory away from the champion
ship of league C and Walton Hall will move to the finals
from league D with an undefeated record.

NEW YORK UP>—For 24 sleep
less hours it looked as if this
might be a good week for under
dogs, but it isn’t. So top-ranked
Southern California and No. 3
Kansas should be able to fight
off upset gremlins and keep their
unbeaten records intact.
Not so Harvard, which runs
against an aroused Princeton and
loses some glitter. Last week’s
score: 48-11 for .814. Season: .774.
Southern California 27, Cali
fornia 20: O. J. Simpson got a
bad game out of the way last
week, should be ready to roll
again.
Kansas 33, Oklahoma 25: Bobby
Douglass & Company are strong
challengers for the nat i o n a 1
championship.
Princeton 22, Harvard 19: The
Tigers have a wealth of material
which jelled for the first time
a week ago-
Alabama 18, Louisiana State
14: The Crimson Tide lacks its
usual wallop but catches an LSU
team hurting in key places.
Penn State 23, Miami Fla. 14:
A prospective Orange Bowl bid
puts extra zip in the Nittany
Lions.
Tennessee 24, Auburn 14: This
is a Tennessee team on the as
cendancy, and that’s not just
whistling Dixie.
Texas 39, Baylor 7: The Long
horns maintain their average of
better than 30 points a game.
Texas Tech 28, Texas Christian
14: The Raiders still have a sniff
of the Cotton Bowl, although it’s
a faint one.

Just talk to the man from General Electric.
He represents 170 separate GE “companies” that
deal in everything from space research to electric
toothbrushes. And each of these product depart
ments is autonomous. Each has its own manage
ment and business objectives.
So a job at General Electric offers the kind of
immediate responsibility you might expect to find
only in a small business.
Right from the start you get a chance to demon
strate your initiative and capabilities. And the
more you show us, the faster you’ll move ahead.
As you do, you’ll find that you don’t necessarily
have to spend a lifetime working on the same job
in the same place. We have operations all over the
world. Chances are you’ll get to try your hand at
more than one of them.
Our interviewer will be on campus soon. If
you’re wondering whether it’s possible to find chal
lenging work in big business, please arrange to see
him. He speaks for 170 “companies.”

Here is the 1968 season. The zany, unpredict
able Southwest Conference season. Where under
dogs become topdogs on any given Saturday.
Where comparative scores, home field advantage
and other prognostic devices are thrown to the
winds. Where on the day of the game it’s just us
versus them and to hell with what happened last
week or last year. Yes, the Southwest Conference
has tradition — anyone can win, anyone can pull
the big shocker of the season and fate doesn’t
play favorites.
