Take East University to 29th St. (Tarrow Street)
AUSTIN, Tex. (AP) — University
of Texas coaches signed three junior
college football players today but
the Texas Aggies got the big defen
sive tackle the Texas coaches had
hoped would replace All-American
Doug English.
The Longhorns got letters of in
tent from:
-Alfred Lee, 5 feet 10, 170
pounds, defensive back at Tyler
Junior College.
-Ernest Lee, 6-4, 245, defensive
tackle and tight end, Tyler Junior
College.
-Victor Moore, 6-4, 245,
linebacker, Kilgore Junior College.
-Defensive tackle Charley John
son, 6-3 and 274, also from Tyler
Junior College, had been expected
to sign with Texas but switched to
Texas A&M.
In addition to English, Texas
loses Fred Currin, injured earlier
this year, freshman Brad Shearer
and senior David McLeon are the
only experienced defensive tackles
returning.
Assistant coach Bill Ellington said
Texas also expected to sign Jerry
Anderson, 6-1, 190, a defensive
back at Northeast Oklahoma A&M.
Ellington called Anderson “very,
very outstanding.”
Alfred Lee and Anderson are ex
pected to provide immediate help
because Texas loses Terry Melan-
con and Sammy Mason from the
secondary.
Moore is expected to give Texas
its traditional big linebacker. Wade
Johnson and Sherman Lee, both 6-1
and 225, are seniors.
Because of the new
30-scholarship limit, major colleges
were not expected to sign many
junior college graduates, who have
only two years of eligibility.
Texas obviously feels it needs
quick replacements at defensive
tackle, defensive back and
linebacker.
Davis happy
with Texas
ARLINGTON, Tex. (AP) — Star
centerfielder Willis Davis has told
the Texas Rangers he is pleased with
his trade to the American League
team from the National League
Montreal Expos.
Davis told Ranger General Man
ager Don O’Brien by the telephone
that he was anxious to get to Texas.
“He sounded very happy about
coming down here to play,” O’Brien
said. “He said he was looking for
ward to getting back to a warm
weather climate. He spent most of
his career in a warm weather area
with the Dodgers before he was
traded to Montreal last season.
