BOOKMART
Due to the overwhelming success &
popularity the TAMU bookmart is here to
stay. If you’ve not heard of the bookmart
we apologize for the little bit of publicity
that we have had. We are a non profit
organization sponsored by student govern
ment to bring students the best possible
price for their used books. We operate on

on 25c to your price per book and uses
this to cover its expenses. Anything left
over goes to student government to use in
student projects. Book mart is set up as a
service to the students to get the best

The Texas A&M men’s track team
competed in the Drake Relays
where it was cold and rainy, yet
they managed to run some hot
times.
The Aggies ran their best times of
the year in both the 400-meter relay
and 1,600-meter relay at Drake.
The team of Karl Figgs, Vernon
Pittman, Arthur Williams and Les
lie Kerr, won the 1,600-meter relay
in a time of 3:06.27.
The 400-meter relay team of
Charles Butler, Ray Brooks, Kerr
and Curtis Dickey placed second
with a time of 39.7
The 400-meter relay team ran its
best time of the season even with
Dickey running with a sore toe.
Dickey received the toe injury in
spring football and scratched him
self out of the 100-meter dash,
which he was favored to win.
The Aggies have the best time in
the Southwest Conference in both
relays. They are also ranked in the
top ten of the nation in both relays.
Aggie track coach Ted Nelson said
he was very pleased with the Aggies’
performance this week.
“The guys are running better than
I expected and I really feel good
about the Southwest Conference
meet in May. This is the strongest
we have been going into the Con
ference meet in a long time,” Nelson
said.
“Curtis wasn’t even running full
speed in the sprint relay,” he said.

Wilson and his Sooner running

effort by winning the outstanding

Wilson was a clear-cut choice for the
