SWC Football Coaches
Eyeball Thermometer
By Vailed Pros International
Southwest Conference football coaches kept an eye
on the thermometer today. They didn’t want any play-

"Tests will be taken during

The 43-year-old Musial, who
retired last year after playing

Texas A&M coach Hank Fold-

Horsemen throughout the Un-
ited States begin converging on
LaBahia Downs in Goliad this
week. Reason for this activity
is the big quarter horse meet
scheduled for that historic town
on October 3-4 and 10-11. This
will be the first meet at LaBa-
hia Downs since the highly
successful meet held last April.
Many of the same outstand-
ing horses will be back to vie
for top honors in the rich stake
races. Featured attractions in-
clude the 'Goliad •Futurity” I
w ith an estimated purse of $20,-
000.00 and the LaBahia Derby
with an estimated purse of $4,-

An indication of the caliber
of horses participating in April
and expected back in October
can be gained by checking the
records of these horses at other
meets: Tonto Parr, who ran
i second in the Texas Futurity,
won the $100,000.00 plus Kan-
