Directory Soon
The Student Directory will
come out in late October or early
November, according to the edi-
tor, Rilda Richardson. The exact
date of publication depends on the

Hoelscher, Gordon Speer and Dan
Shuford doing the pounding.
Larry Dueitt, soph from Corpus
Christi Miller, snuck through the
Gray line from his man-under
ball to the five yard line from
which point Robicheaux scooted
wide for the six pointer.
From that point on, there was
no question of the outcome of
the game. A fumbled fourth down
snapback set the Frays in opera-
tion on the Blue 29 and minutes
later quarterback Hill scored.
Fumble Again
On the kickoff, the Blues once
again fumbled, this time of the

With less than four minutes
left on the clock, Frank Ryan
of the Grays came to life. After
making two fine runs, he heaved
a touchdown strike to Buddy Dail
to close the gap to 19-13.
The Gray team then sat on
the ball, running out the clock
for a well-deserved victory.
