John Rlggs Selected
As Little All-Americaii
John Riggs, Tarleton senior, re-
cently added another honor to his
.already long' list when he was the
only Texas "small-college" player
named to the i96'3 Little All-Amer-
ican football team announced ear-
lier this month by the Williamson
Poll. He was named to a center
position on the poll's 33 man first
group.
The poll, based on a consensus
of the nation's college athletic de-
partments, selected college players
from throughout the country to its
1963 squad.
Riggs was officially presented
his Little All-American award at
the annual football bansuet held
Thursday night. He also received
the John Fielding Higgs Award,
presented to the TEXANS' Most
Valuable Player, at the banquet.
A 190 pound linebacker, Rigga
has been said to have the uncanny
ability to diagnose opponents'
plays almost before the runners
were even committed. As an ex-
ample, in the season opener
against Southwestern Oklahoma,
he made seven unassisted tackles,
assisted in 12 more, deflected one
pass into the hands of another
Tarleton player, and intercepted
.two passes himself.
This four year letterman served
as co-captain of the team this year
and was also named to the All-
Texas small college team. In 1962
he was named the TEXANS' Best
Defensive Player, and his freshman
year (when Tarleton was playing
in a junior college conference) he
was given, honorable mention on
the All-Pioneer Conference Team.
This senior business major from
Galena Park doesn't confine his
activities just to football either.
Ho is also a cadet captain in the
ROTC, Serving' as commanding of-
ficer of "C" Company, and he was
a recipient of the Distinguished
Military Student award. He is alsa
a member of the Student Council
and was named to "Who's Who
Among1 Students in American Uni-
versities and Colleges". His sopho-
more year he was vice-president, of
his class and runner-up. far class
favorite.
The Riggs' household received
another member over the Christ-
mas holidays when John's wife
Merline gave birth to their first
I baby, a son whom they named
Phillip.
Students Still Urged
To Pay Fees Early
Mr. R. G. Fanning, college busi-
ness manager, has reported that
many Tarleton students have fail-
ed as yet to pay their tuition and
fees for the spring semester.
Fee payment forms for those
students who attended Tarleton
during the fall semester are avail-
able in the business office. The
forms should be picked up, filled
out, and turned in with the fee
payments prior to registration.
Mr. Fanning* has emphasized
that payment of fees ahead of
time is extremely important, es-
pecially since there will be only
one day for registration next se-
mester, Students who wait until
the last minute, said Mr. Fanning,
will cause extra trouble for tha
business office and for themselves,
since they will have to waste time
during registration standing in
line to pay their fees.
