to an All-America first team.
Last season the 6-1, 215 pound
linebacker was picked on the As
sociated Press’ All - America
squad. The Associated Press as
well as most other organizations
have yet to pick their 1968 honor
teams.
Hobbs, a senior from Amarillo
Tascosa, was hampered most of
the season with a bad back but
still managed to turn in his eye
popping performances.
Krueger, the brother of for
mer Aggie All-American Charley
Krueger who now plays for the
San Francisco 49ers, anchored
the Aggie defensive line from his
tackle post this year. It was the
first All-America team that the
6-4, 243 pound native of Bryan
has been named to.
Named to the UPI’s second
team along with Krueger were
Jerry Levias of Southern Metho
dist, Chris Gilbert of Texas Uni
versity and Jim Barnes of Ar
kansas all of the Southwest Con
ference and Eugene “Mercury”
Morris of West Texas State.
Levias is the leading pass re
ceiver in the nation from his split
end post while Gilbert, a half
back, is the leading ground gain
er in the history of the SWC.
Barnes, a 6-4 227 pounder, is an
offensive guard while Morris is
a halfback.
Paul Gibson, a fullback for the
University of Houston, was
named to the UPI’s honorable
mention squad to round out the
selections from the Southwest

The Texas Aggies play the
first of five straight home bas
ketball games next Monday night
when they entertain Southern
Mississippi in G. Rollie White
Coliseum.
The Monday - Thursday sched
ule at home in December finds
Centenary here Dec. 5, Lamar
Tech Dec. 9, Louisiana Tech Dec.
12 and Stephen F. Austin Dec.
16.
Despite the absence of “big
name schools, the early schedule
will find the Aggies facing rug
ged opposition.
Stephen F. Austin, for exam
ple, lost only one letterman from
Engineering and Science at IBM
“The interdisciplinary
environment keeps you
technologically hot!
“Working in data processing today pretty much
means you work in a broad spectrum of tech
nologies,’’says Nick Donofrio.
An Associate Engineer at IBM, Nick is a
1967 graduate in Electrical Engineering.
He’s using his technical background
to design circuits for computer
memory systems.
“Circuit design used to be a narrow
job,” he says. “Today it can take you
into the front yard of half a dozen
different fields. In my job, for example,
I work with systems design engineers,
chemists, physicists, metallurgists,
and programmers.”
Nick describes a hypothetical case
history: “A memory systems man
comes to me with memory circuit
requirements. Before I can start
designing the circuit, I go to see a
physicist. He helps me select an
appropriate technology for the
monolithic circuit.
“As the design develops, I work with a
test group and also check back with the
systems and semiconductor people to make
sure I’m on the right track.”
Keeping up
The interdisciplinary environment at IBM helps
you keep up to date technologically. As Nick
puts it, “You’re constantly exposed to what’s
happening in other fields.”
IBM needs technical graduates to work in
research, design and development, manufactur
ing, product test, field engineering, and space
and defense projects. We also need technical
people in programming and marketing.
Check with your placement office
If you’re interested in engineering and
science at IBM, ask your placement office
for more information.
Or send a resume or letter to Charles
Cammack, IBM Corp., Dept. C, 1447 Peachtree
St., N.E., Room 810, Atlanta, Ga. 30309. We’d
like to hear from you even if you’re headed
for graduate school or military service.

IBM
last year’s 27-3 club and is ex
pected to floor one of the top
teams in the Southwest. Louisi
ana Tech, featuring seven - foot
junior center Charlie Bishop, got
added strength when Tom Far
rell, an all-America performer at
Kilgore J.C., transferred from
South Carolina.
There will be freshman prelim
games at 5:45 against Wharton
JC next Monday, against TCU
Dec. 9; against Henderson Coun
ty JC Dec. 12 and against Lon
Morris JC Dec. 16.
Coach Shelby Metcalf has an
nounced that his probable start
ing lineup for the Monday night
opener will have 7-foot sopho
more Steve Niles at center, 6-9
senior Ronnie Peret and 6-5 sen
ior Billy Bob Barnett at the for
wards and 6-1 senior Sonny
Benefield and 6-4 junior Mike
Heitmann at the guards.
The other five players will be
6-1 Bill Brown, 6-2 Bill Cooksey,
5-9 Roddy McAlpine, 6-6 Harry
Bostic and 6-5 Chuck Smith.
Metcalf’s Aggies have been
picked to win the SWC but the
A&M coach says “I can’t under
stand why. Three of our top
eight players are sophomores
(Niles, Smith and Cooksey).
They must come through for us
to have a good year.”
Other December action for the
Aggies will be at Wichita State
on Dec. 23 and in the famed All-
College tournament in Oklahom
City, Dec. 26-30.

And it’s smart to plan now-

Here’s one way. Invest ina
