WORLD RECORD HOLDER
Curtis Mills, A&M’s world record holder in the 440-yard dash, will participate in the
Astrodome-Federation National Indoor Championships Feb. 13-14 in Houston. He will
also run Jan. 30 in the Wanamaker Milrose Games at Madison Square Garden in New
York City. (Photo by Mike Wright)
Mills Will Run In Houston
Curtis Mills, Texas A&M’s
world record (44.7) quartermiler,
is the type of athlete who gets
better each year.
The Aggie junior has been
steadily improving since his old
er brother, Vernon, encouraged
him to go out for track as a
ninth grader at Lufkin Dunbar.
From the way he has burned up
the boards so far in this year’s
indoor meets, he is still improv
ing.
At the pace Mills is going this
year, he should be in great shape
February 13-14 when he com
petes in the 300-yard dash in the
second annual Astrodome-Feder
ation National Indoor Champion
ships.
Because the speedy junior and
two freshmen named Willie
Blackmon of Houston Wheatley
and Marvin Mills, Curtis’ young
er brother from Lufkin Dunbar,
A&M will be pre-meet favorites.
The Aggies should dominate the
sprints and sprint relays.
In high school, Curtis made
barely a splash in Coach Elmer
Redd’s vast pool of track and
field stars, but all of that has
changed now.
Ironically another youngster,
George Harrison, who got most
of the publicity when he and
Mills were in high school, will be
running in the Astrodome meet
but this time he will be hard
pressed to overshadow his form
er teammate.
Harrison, who anchored Texas
Southern University’s distance
medley relay team to a 10:46.4
victory, will be competing in the
college division.
Harrison dominated the high
school scene so completely, it
wasn’t until Mills’ freshman year
at A&M that people realized he
was a member of the 1964-65-66
AAA state TIL champions.
When the gun sounds to start
the 300-yard dash in the Astro
dome there will hardly be a spec
tator in the stands who won’t be
conscious of Mills who passed up
the event last year.
Ag Cagers Hit Road
The Texas Aggie basketball
team, after a come-from-behind
victory over the Texas Long
horns last Tuesday, take a break
from conference play this Satur
day as they travel to Ruston,
La., for an 8 p.m. bout with the
Louisiana Tech Bulldogs.
A&M now has a season record
of 7-5 with a 2-1 conference
mark, including a win over Ar
kansas and a loss to Baylor to
go with the Texas win.
The Bulldogs will show the
Aggies one of the tallest teams
they will encounter all year with
7-1 Senior Charles Bishop leading
the way. Other probable starters
are guard George Corley (18.4),
an All-Gulf States performer,
George Thorton (6-4), Mike Dur
ham (6-9), Mike Green (6-10),
and Bud Dean (6-4). Last year
the Aggies polished off the Bull
dogs 102-83 in College Station.
A&M is expected to open with
their regular starting five in
cluding Bill Cooksey, Pat Kava-
naugh, Steve Niles, Chuck Smith
and Mike Heitmann.
The next conference action for
the Cadets will be next Tuesday
at 8 p.m. when they invade Hous
ton for a clash with the highly-
regarded Rice Owls. The Aggie
Fish will tangle with the Owlets
in a 5:45 prelim.

Unbeaten, untied and unscored
on Company F-l freshmen won
the Class B intramural football
championship.
The team from the unit com
manded by Richard J. Oates
blanked Company M-l to make
one touchdown sufficient margin
in the Wednesday title game.
M-l never got past F-l’s 20 yard
line.
A 77-yard scoring drive mount
ed primarily on running plays
was closed by Jimmy Griffith’s
three-yard sweep. Mike Koelza
kicked the extra point.
Squadron 2 displayed balanced
scoring by Tom Bain (16), Ken
Johse (14) and Ed Duryea (12)
in knocking off Squadron 11, 52-
34, in basketball semifinals. In
the outfit’s first playoff win, a
54-50 success over F-2, the three
players hit for 14, 17 and 11,
respectively.
Company B-2 takes a potent
offense against Squadron 2 in the
championship match. B-2 bested
C-l, 28-24, and Squadron 1, 56-
37, with Charles Crews, Steven
Hanson and Tom Kincy the major
contributors.
