Don't be lazy! Start to class on

Remind the one you see cutting
the campus that he shouldn't.
One person cutting across the

several davs but eveiy student

leaves a well-trod grassless path.
Those paths only mar the looks
of that particular place and the

By BROOKS DOZIER
Howard Payne's gioup of lel-
terinen formally known as the
-TI" Club formed a basketball
team and entered the City Inde
pendent League.
The team i:. made up largely ef
football and track lettcrrmn an
one cx-HPC basket-jer who U"
captain of the team. He i-. Ai
Langford two basketball letter
man heie. As far as the rest of
the fellows they have plaved
high school and independent ball
Spearheading the letlerman's
aggregation are the fast breaking
effort of Bill Hansfield and Ed
Nixon. Both boys are quick hus-
tle all the time and therefore ac
count for a large amount of Jacket
points.
Al Landlord's "set shots" and
drive-in shots" aie definitely an
asset. Frank Barnett holds down
the other guard and Don Jay han
dles the pivot chores Barnett
and Jay are the chief rebound
artists too.
The Jackets employ the "pla-
toon" svstcm here as they did in
football. The foresaid group is
the offensive platoon which the
defensive crew (or wrecking
crew) is led by captain and cheer
leader Leroy "Cottonpicker" Cop-
pic Mike Gonzales Tom Valdez
Charlie White and Jack Brown-
ing. The boys are doing well and are
considered one of the top flight
teams in the league. Last week
they defeated the "Jaycees" 47-19.
and the Barber College (top rated
team) 57-45. Don Jay led the at
tack against the Jaycees by scor-
ing 14 points which Bill "Sub-
mariner" Hartsfield scored 13 to
place the "H" club in the second
game.
The executive staff is composed
of Brooks Do.ier coach; Bill Wil
son assistant; Glen Whitis man
ager; and Herman Moore local
stooge.

one of the biggest assets to the
Jacket forward wall since his en-
rollmcnt in 194G. Bill is married
and will graduate at mid-term.
From there his next step will be
either pro-football or the coach-
ing piofession. I
Scoggins who was a senior j
until the Conference meeting was j
found to have one more year of
eligibility which is probably one
of the most enlightening discov
eries that Howard iJayno nas naci
in many a moon. Bill who hails
from Ballinger played excellent
ball there and was said to be the
most outstanding linebacker in
the state.
From there Bill went to San
Angelo Junior College and then
enrolled here in the spring of '47.
Howard Payne since long years
ago has been heralded as always
having a fine center and Bill has
definitely followed the pattern.
We're nroud that you received
tho honor and that you'll be back
with us next year Bill.
We can say that we're proud of
these boys who are definitely fine
ball players vicious blockers and
excellent defensive men. But we
are assured of the fact that one
if not two Jackets "wu. robbed"
completely wholly etc. I speak
of Al Langford who was one of
the slate's leading passers and
above all in the Texas Conference.
Ho passed for well over 1000
yards and for 17 touchdowns.
These things we just can't under-
stand. Al enjoyed his best year since
his arrival at HPC. He made the
all-conference squads of 1947 and
194U and yet did not make it this
year. Brother all I can say
there's something missing some-
where. Al another Blown wood
boy was placed on the second
team with Frank Barnett Austin
and Jack Browning Ranger.
Jack and Frank played fine ball
all season. Frank was a standout
on his picket position as he has
been for three years. He gradu-
ates at mid-term.
Jack still has another year with
us and was singled out by "Spot"
Collins head mentor at South-
Inst vear. Brad Rowland of Mc-
Murry was the most valuable
player.
