thing new.

Thirty-nine boy*, out for »pring

And a tike water haul was ax- ..
perienced in the freshman divi-
sion low hurdles.
But Coach Littlefield hardly
will fret long over that one short-
coming as he views the remain-
der of hi* field with enthusiasm.
Three individual champion*,
three member* of the winning
mile relay team, three who gain-
ed runner-up recognition and
five who placed third are among
tha veterans returning from the
1 titular team.
And from the talented fresh-
man squad that had an even eas-
ier road to the championship he
will acquire seven individual
champions and two winning re-
lay combinations.
Bobby Whilden, who set and
tied records in winning the two
sprinta, and two-miler Walter
McNew, the national collegiate
croaa-eountry king, are the,
Longhorns’ lone defending eliam- j
ptera. Ihey return along with 15
other lettermen, including Le-
van? Voigt, Jimmy Holt and
Ralph Rosenberg who teamed
with graduated Jon Tot* in win-
ning the mile relay, an event In
which they earlier had claimed
a school record.
Up from the freshman ranks
will come Eddie Southern, the
Olympic hurdler; Joe Villarresl,
who set a national freshman mile
mark at 4:10; Sprinter Hollis
Gainey; Quarter-mtlsr Wallace
Wilson and Weight Man Bruee
Parber. Between them they aet

honors. He could solve Texas'
low hurdle problem, of course,
but probably will be used In the
mile relay Instead-
Except for the Iowa, Texas ap-
pears to have a potential winner,
in every other event, but, of
course, does not expect a little
alam or anything near it.
Cheering to Coach Littlefield
is hla depth, tor the quentity at
quality may give him hia beat
relay strength since 1948. The
Longhorns won four relay titles
at the Tents and Drake Relays
that year and grabbed third
pises In the national collegiate
meet.

with the javelin and will be as-
sisted In that event by Fallon
