Blue Rambles Past White
In Saturday's Scrimmage
"We have improved, but we
still have a long way to go."
This was the comment of
head coach Joe James after he
had watched his Yellow Jacket
football team in a full-scale
scrimmage in Lion Stadium last
Saturday morning.
The scrimmage was a culmi-
nation of a short week of pre-
paration which started Tuesday,
the day after Easter holidays.
Prom Tuesday through Friday,
the gridmen had contact drills
in preparation for Saturday's
workout
Dividing his squad into two
units, Coach James and assist^
ant coach Jerry Millsapps ob-
served their charges as, they
blocked and tackled for the bet-
ter part of two hours. The Blue
squad came out on top, defeat-
ing the White team three
touchdowns to one.
"The team hit pretty well,
but we weren't moving well
enough," said James.
Working in the backfield for
the Blue team were, Gene
Young, quarterback; Gene Par-
tridge and Bobby Stuart, half-
backs; and Wesley Johnson at
fullback. The Blue team used
both the passing and the run-
ning game to garner their
scores. The White team had a
backfieldi of Wendell Byrom,
quarterback; Ronnie Jensen and
Grady Bggleston, halfbacks; and
Rodney Senterfitt, fullback.
Both Johnson and Jensen re-
ceived injuries during the rug-
ged workout. Johnson hurt his
knee and Jensen turned an
ankle.
Ed Myrick, after receiving a
neck injury is out of football
for good. Phil Pascal will not
be ready to go until next fall
because of an injured knee.
Three quarterbacks are out of
action at present time; Steve
Heron, pulled groin muscle;
Jerry Kemplay, back injury,
and Grady West, knee injury.
Two other Paynemen who will
not see action this spring are
Joe Wilhoite and Fred Saucedeo.
Wilhoite injured his neck and
Saucedeo is out with a broken
jaw.
The Jackets resumed contact
drills on Monday and were to
have worked on fundamentals
during the rest of the week,
stopping for the track meet on
Saturday.
Another full-scale scrimmage^
is planned' for Saturday night,
April 18 at Lion Stadium.
BASKETBALL NOTES
Springer Leads
Three Players
To lead the nation is quite a
feat, but to do it twice in one
year is even more noteworthy;
but that's exactly what Robert
Springer did.
Springer, the Yellow Jackets
low postman, rankedi first in
field goal percentage in the
statistics of both the NCAB and
the NAIA.
In the NAIA rating, Springer
in 22 games took 160 shots and
connected on 110 of them for a
mark of 63.8 per cent. The
NAIA ranking consisted of all
the colleges in the National As-
sociation of Intercollegiate Ath-
letics.
The NCAB rating, which was
somewhat later, showed a com-
plete season for Springer of 24
games. In those 24 games,
Springer hit on 119 of 174 shots
attempted for 68,4 per cent
The NCAB rating included all
the small colleges of the Na-
tional Collegiate Athletic As-
sociation.
Also ranking in both reports
Yellow Jackets were able to
rank in team free throw shoot-
ing in both reports.
In the NAIA report, the
was Captain Ted Hobby. Hobby
ranked 21st in both reports in
free throw shooting with a per-
centage of 84.7 in 23 games in
the NAIA report and one of
84.6 in 24 games in the NCAB
report
Despite the fact that it hurt
them on a few occasions, the
Paynemen ranked 26th, hitting
on 437 of 602 attempts for 72.6
per cent in 22 games.
Ranking a bit lower in the
NCAB report, the Jackets mesh-
ed! 463 charity tosses out of 626
attempts for a percentage of
Nation;
Signed
72.5 in 24 games.
With the signing of Paul
Aday, basketball Coach Glen
Whitis brings to three the
number of players he has in the
fold for next year. Already
signed are Tommy Hawkins of
Navarro Junior College and
JOhn Adams of Midland High
School.
Aday from ~ Plainview, is a
5-11 guard who scored 16,0
points per game and was named
to the all-district team.
Hawkins was strong point-
getter for Navarro Junior Col-
lege, scoring 25 points per game,
he was selected on the all-con-
ference team.
John Adams, a 6-7 center will
most likely fit in the Yellow
Jackets' offense under the
boards. He averaged only 12
points per game, but also pulled
down 14 rebounds per game.

BY BILL HARPER
Yellow Jacket Sports Editor
With the second running of the Howard Payne Invitational
Track and Field Meet, the Howard Payne Yellow Jackets will play
host to a track meet for the fourth time in modern track history.
The meet, scheduled to start
with field events at 2 p.m. at
the J. H. (Cap) Shelton track,
will bring together some of the
best college track talent in the
state.
A total of seven teams will be
trying to unseat defending
champion McMurry Indians,
who won the initial meet last
year. Others than the Yellow
Jackets and the Indians entered
in the meet are: Arlington
State, Hardin-Simmons, Tarle-
ton State, Texas Lutheran, East
Texas State and St Edwards
University.
Ready to give the Indians
competition for top honors is
East Texas. The Lions have both
the all-around depth and as
well some outstanding individ-
uals who figure to score heavily
in certain events.
In last year's meet, the In-
dians were able to score in all
but three of the sixteen events
in registering their 66 points.
Finishing second was East Tex-
as with 60 points, the Yellow
Jackets took third with 46
points.
If depth was the Yellow Jack-
ets problem before, it has doub-
led now; Bill Thomas and Cap-
tain Tommy Sikes have been
lost for the season due to in-
juries.
Thomas, who had been bother-
ed by a pain in his calf for
about a month, was told that
he would have to quit this year,
in order to let it heal.
Sikes, unable to rid himself
of a hip injury that has been
bothering him for quite a while,
was also forced to quit
Last Friday at the Texas Re-
lays, a distance medley team,
composed of Alton Carlson, 440;
Jack Petty, 880; A1 McKee 3/4
mile, and Jim Ewing anchor
mile, finished fifth in the col-
lege division with a time of
10:22.9.
Ewing came back on Saturday
to run 4:13.0 in the Invitational
mile to garner fourth place.

IN TRAM URALS
Klods Take Lead
After a week's activity in in-
tramural softball, the Klods
lead the league with a 2-0 rec-
ord. They are followed closely
by the Heathens who sport a
1-0 mark. Yet to win games
are the Freshmen who stand
at d-l and the Outlaws who are
0-2.
In games played during the
first week, the Klods opened the
season by defeating the Fresh-
men 6-4. The Heathens took the
next day's contest from the Out-
laws by an 8-2 count. Capping
off the first week the Klods de-
feated the Outlaws 10-6.
Some timely hitting by Larry
Evans and Tom Biles and some
cluch pitching by Charles
Wyatt helped account for the
Klods opening game victory
over the Freshmen.
Billy Jack Shaw supplied
much of the power of a well-
roundied attack as the Heathens
overcame the Outlaws.
In the final game of the week,
the Klods jumped on the Out-
laws for five runs in the first
inning and coasted to a 10-6
victory.
