They’re made better to taste
cleaner, fresher, smoother!
Ask yourself this question: Why do I smoke?
You know, yourself, you smoke for enjoy-
ment. And you get enjoyment only from
the taste of a cigarette.
Luckies taste better—cleaner, fresher,
smoother! Why? Because Luckies are
made better to taste better. And, what’s
more, Luckies are made of fine tobacco.
L.S./M.F.T.—Lucky Strike Means Fine
Tobacco.
So, for the thing you want most in a ciga-
rette ... for better taste—cleaner, fresher,
smoother taste ... Be Happy—Go Lucky!

championship team and beat
many Southwest Conference
teams.
To Port Arthur in 1946
Higgins went to Port Arthur as
line coach at Thomas Jefferson
High School in the fall of 1946
and served in that capacity
through 1948. He coached Yellow
Jacket baseball teams in 1947 and
1948, finishing third and second
in district.
He came to Lamar Tech in the
fan of 1949.
A native of Maypearl, Texas,
Higgins is married to the former
Ioma Blocker of Palmer. They
have one son, Jimmy, six.
Lambert’s elevation terminates
one of the most successful high
school and collegiate coaching
careers in Texas.
He was an all-state guard for
Temple High School before going
to Texas Christian University in
1929 and playing on TCU’s first
championship team. Upon grad-
uation he took his first coaching
assignment at Temple where he
was an assistant for two years
gefore moving to Austin High
School and a year’s tenure as
line coach.
He coached the Austin Maroons
for the, next 12 years, producing
the 1942 state champions and on
seven other occasions went into
the playoffs. His high school rec-
ord showed 88 wins, 24 losses and
four ties.
Lambert Coached Champs
Lambert came to Lamar (Jun-
ior) College in 1948 and at the
end of the 1949 season he had
given the college its first foot-
ball championship, a co-title with
Tyler in the old Southwest Junior
College Conference.
In 1950 he tutored the college’s
independent outfit which played
a full 10-game schedule while
Lamar was still a junior college,
and in 1951 saw the school jump
to senior college status and play
its first season in the 27-year-
old Lone Star Conference.
His team finished in a fourth-
place tie last year and a fifth-
place tie this season, knotting
Stephen F. Austin both times.
Lambert to Cooperate
Lambert is planning to work
with Coach Higgins in contacting
prospects for Lamar Tech’s 1953
aggregation with a monumental
task facing the mentors.
Tech loses nine seniors from
the 1952 squad. And the* switch
in offensive formations will
create many additional vacancies
which must be filled before next
fall.
Several reasons for the forma-
tion change were given by Coach
Higgins. Primary is the fact that
few high schools of the area are
teaching the single wing offense
which makes it almost impossible
to pick up capable players experi-
enced in the wing attack.
In the past the college has not
had the budget nor the staff to
acquire a large squad of T forma-
tion players and train them for
single wing football, it was point-
ed out.
Archer Sits With
Accrediting Group
O. B. Archer, vice-president
and dean, returned late yester-
day from Memphis, Tenn., where
he served as the college’s official
representative at, the annual
meeting of the Southern Associa-
tion of Colleges and Secondary
Schools.
Mr. Archer is laying ground-
work for an on-the-spot investiga-
tion by the association, one of
the foremost accrediting agen-
cies in the nation, which will
give Lamar Tech senior college
accreditation.

ist, presented a concert of light
