At any price
you can afford to be choosy.
Because the value of every diamond is determined by four character
istics (cut, color, clarity and carat weight), you can always use these
qualities to your best advantage.
Perhaps you’re attracted by the grandeur of a large diamond. Well,
sometimes a large stone can cost the same as a smaller one. Simply
because it has a little more color. Or a delicate birthmark hidden inside.
On the other hand, you may feel size isn’t the most important quality.
Then you could choose a diamond that’s small, but perfectly cut to
sparkle with an icy-white elegance.
In any case, you’ll be able to find one to suit your personality. Because
each one is an individual, with its own combination of characteristics.
And you can use these qualities any way you wish, to help you decide
what’s precisely right for you.
But the important thing to remember is to buy a diamond engagement
ring you’ll be happiest with. You’ll be sharing it for a lifetime with someone
you love.
And for that reason alone, you should be choosy.
A diamond is forever.
Prices shown represent retail quotations for these specific rings (enlarged for detail). Your jeweler has
many diamonds to choose from and can give you the best guidance. De Beers Consolidated Mines, Ltd.

Relay losses hurt cause
Ags lose to Bears
By PAUL McGRATH
Winning both relay races, the
Baylor Bears came from behind to
nudge the Texas A&M track team
Monday in a rain-delayed dual
meet.
Clyde Hart’s Bears defeated the
Aggies 69-66y2 in a meet re
scheduled from last Saturday. The
Aggies of Coach Charles Thomas
will be in Waco again this Friday for
the Baylor Invitational.
This was the second dual meet
loss for A&M this season, the first
being to Rice by two points. The
Aggies have won dual meets with
Texas and LSU, while also winning
the Border Olympics and College
Station Relays.
Shifton Baker was the meet’s only
double winner, taking both hurdles
events. He defeated Davy Duncan,
perhaps the Southwest Confer
ence’s best high hurdler, in the
highs with a 13.9. Baker also won
the 440-yard intermediates with a
51.8 clocking.
Baker ran the third leg on A&M’s
sprint relay team which clocked a
season’s best time of 40.6. Chuck
Butler, Ray Brooks, and Phillip
Steen ran the other legs as the Ag
gies were defeated by two-
hundreths of a second. The race was
critical as the Bears easily won the
|mile relay. Baylor’s sweep of the re-

174-10 foot throw and Tim Scott was
third at 165-0 feet.

ers in the javelin. Newsom threw
the spear 217-3 feet to win the
event.
Brooks won the 220-yard dash,
breaking the tape at 21.5. He also
placed second in the 440-yard dash
with a 48.2, nipped by BU’s Geary
Harris who ran a 47.9.
Butler placed second in the 100-
yard dash with his season’s best of
9.6 and was also runner-up in the
220 with a 21.5.
Sophomore Joel Vogt, a con
verted half miler, won the mile in
4:09.9 while teammate Manfred
Kohrs was second in 4:10.6.
The Aggies did not bring a full
squad as several of Thomas’ top half
milers remained home to mend in
juries. Baylor took all three places
in the half mile, long jump and high
jump.
The Bears will play host to A&M,
Rice, Houston and SMU as the con
ference track season heads into its
final month of competition. The
SWC track meet will be in Austin
on May 14.
On April 29 the Aggies will travel
to Des Moines, Iowa for the Drake
Relays. Hosted by Drake Universi
ty, the Relays rank as one of the top
track attractions in the nation.
