etic champion, Tony Simpson. Who? If you don’t know, don’t feel
out, for Simpson is a junior high football coach at Galena Park
thshore.
He wrote the lead article in this month’s “Texas Coach” titled
le Hair Length is a Doctrinal Issue.” The article concerns itself with
theory that long hair on boys and men is the sign of a “sissy” and
uld be banned from American playing fields.
The article was written publicly answering the questioning as to the
vance of not allowing the state’s top athletes to participate in this
mer’s all-star football and basketball games.
Getting back to Simpson, he says, “It is time that American
ches stopped allowing themseleves to be personally represented by
e athletic teams and individuals that look like females. Only in the
nal world is the male designed to be the attractive.”
He also portrays long hair with that “pinko element” in our nation,
male with long hair is cute, he is pretty, he is sweet,” he sneers. “If
coaches of America would grow long hair like their athletes, we
ht be able to scare the Russians and Chinese Communists to death
lour lack of masculinity.”
“It should be pointed out that the only reason males are free to
! like females and their coaches are free to permit this is because we
real men that were not cute, not sweet, and not pretty, with the
rage and sense enough to kill our enemies all over the globe.”
You’ve got to be kidding! I respect idealism but this guy’s really
out. To keep one’s coaching job, one must win games. Even at the
iorhigh level. The higher one climbs in coaching, the more dedicated
liat effort. If Eddie Owens was at his school, you can bet he’d be
ing even though he is black and has long hair because with Owens
our team, you will win many many games.
Simpson upheld, with great admiration, the hair-ban used by the
[ targame committee. “A good hair code will get the abnormals out
ithletics before they become coaches and bring their “losers” stand-
>into the profession.”
If they’re any “losers” in the profession, it’s Mr. Simpson. No one
the right to subtract one’s personal rights because of some mental
ilem he might have in accordance with lengthened locks. Having
jrthair doesn’t automatically put you into the “winners” category
any means. People with short hair murder, rape, steal, overuse
lulants, etc., just like people with long hair.
This final quote from Mr. Simpson should be one we all hold dear
along time placing it in one’s mental file marked “really freaky”.
He says that men who wear short hair are “in submission to warped
ms and standards of females who like to set the dress and grooming
idards for their mousy husbands, their pantywaist boyfriends, and
ir feminine sons.”
God, he also adds, made man to dominate women and that God
not mean for man to wear long hair. If any of the likenesses of
ist are accurate, he had long hair. As did people like George
shington, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, Joe Namath, John
Kennedy, Mark Spitz, etc.
If you’re worried about a son being infiltrated with Simpson’s
ist, militant, chauvanistic teachings, don’t,'for the poor fellow has
resigned his post. Could it have been by pressure???

Relay Teams Hopeful
Tracksters Enter National Meets
After a brilliant second place
finish in the Southwest Confer
ence Meet in Austin two weeks
ago, the Texas Aggie track team
show its wares to the nation
when it partakes in two national
meets the next two weekends.
This weekend the team travels
to Wichita, Kansas to compete in
the National Track and Field
Federation Meet, tuning up for
the National Collegiate Athletic
Association Meet set for June
17-19 in Baton Rouge, La.
Coaches Charley Thomas and
Ted Nelson will accompany the
13-man squad and are placing
most emphasis on the relay teams

Texans Enter
Alamo 500
Three former winners at Texas
World Speedway have entered the
Alamo 500 scheduled for Sunday,
June 10.
Richard Petty, Buddy Baker
and Gordon Johncock are the
three drivers entered in the
$100,000 Classic who have tri
umphed at the $7 million motor-
sports facility in previous events.
Petty, who ranks as the win-
ningest driver in the history of
NASCAR, is the only two-time
winner at Texas World Speed
way. The Randleman, N. C.,
Dodge driver scored his first vic
tory at the Texas oval in the
1971 Texas 500, and again took
the checkered flag in the NAS
CAR 500-miler last June for
back-to-back wins. During his
fifteen year racing career, Petty
has won over 150 races, earning
almost $1V4 million.
Last November’s Texas 500
winner, Buddy Baker, hopes to
equal Petty’s win record at Texas
World Speedway with a second
consecutive victory in the Alamo
500. The popular Dodge chauf
feur already holds the qualifying
record for stock cars at TWS
with a speed of 176.284 miles-
per-hour.
USAC driver Gordon Johncock
is the most recent winner at the
high-banked course. Johncock re
ceived first place honors in the
stock car segment of the Texas
Twin 200’s on April 7.
times.
“Our sprint relay team showed
what it could do in the conference
meet and now have the confidence
to make a run at the national
title,” Thomas said. “With some
good workouts next week, the
mile relay team could be a con
tender also.”
Gerald D’Ambrosio, Sammy
Dierschke, Billy Porter and Don-
ny Rogers make up the sprint
relay team while Harold Davis,
Willie Blackmon, Horace Grant
and Doug Brodhead are members
©f the mile relay team.
The sprint relay team has the
fourth best time in the nation
thus far with a 39.9 which it ran
at the conference meet.
Scotty Jones, holder of the
fourth best national time in the
120-yard high hurdles, with a 13.5,
is hoping a nagging leg injury
will be relieved and enable him
to go all out at the national
meets. The best time in the na
tion so far is 13.4.
Also entered are Rogers in the
long jump, Ben Greathouse in
the high jump, David Peterek in
the pole vault. Porter in the 100-
yard dash, Willie Blackmon in the javelin and Craig Carter in the
880-yard run, Bill Newton in the shot put.
