the Cincinnati Redlegs, and Eddie Joost, right, of the Philadelphia A’s, receive a few
pointers from veteran pilot Jimmy Dykes in New York. They are attending separate
meetings of the American and National leagues. Dykes, former pilot of the ( hicago
White Sox and the Athletics, is the Baltimore Orioles manager. Tebbetts, fonder
American League player, was appointed recently to manage the Redlegs. Joost, one-

first team, but GainesviHe’s
five second-team choices eas-
ily landed top billing on the
second squad. Paris and
Gainesville ended the district
season as co-champions.
Awarding two points for a first-
team vote and one point for a sec-
ond-team nod, the writers found
only the fleet-heeled Jackion draw-
ing the maximum 14 points. Jack-
ion scored 96 points on 16 touch-
downs to give him the districtscor-
ing title.

Next strongest support was ac-
corded Jackson’s backfield mates,
all with 10 each—Don McDonald of
Sherman, Roddy Osborne of Gaines-
ville and Larry Click of Paris. The
10 pointers all are quarterbacks.
‘ Paris’ Babe Graham and Me-
Kinney’s Charles Davidson led vot-
ing st ends, while Bill Carrico of
Denton and Norman Sullivan were
placed at tackles.
Sherman’s L. D. Sinclair and
Gainesville’s James Strawn were
the front-choice guards, with Den-
ton’s Garland Warren at center.
Warren is the only repeater from
1952. He was named first-string
offensive center Isst year when

goes against another tough one to-
night in the Eagles’ second home
contest of the year.
They entertain St. Edward’s Uni-
versity from Austin in a game that
will find both teams about evenly
matched.
North Texas has the edge in
height, though, boasting two com-
plete teams of lettermen standing
six feet or over. Only three of the
Hilltoppers’ lettermen are over
that mark.
NTSC’s Elmer Beard, who
stretches to six feet, seven inch-
es, will be the tallest man on the
court, with Freddie Hopkins at 6 6
and Calvin Axtell at 6 4 next in
line
Ron Bella and Jack Hellett are
St. Edward’s tallest men. Each is
6 2. Thomas Brusky is an even
six feet.
The Hilltoppers, however, may
have the advantage when it gets
down to speed snd quick break
aways. Coach Edward M. Norris
this year has come up with one of
the fastest teams in the Big State
loop, with Armando Herrera, F,on
Bosco, and George Pappas supply-
ing the speed.
NTSC Coach Pete Shands said
the Hilltoppers are unbeaten in
four previous games, having won
over St. Thomas of Houston, St.
Mary’s of San Antonio, and twice
from Pan American College of
Edinburg
and then barred by the Southeast-
ern Conference for the 1952 53 sea-

their basketball program.

But for Jackson’s uncanny run-

Aside from the three named, Deni-
son’s Bill Borum and McKinney’s
Billy Dunn placed high in the vot-

Scribes voting were Wilburn

Joe Milner and Jere Cox of Green-
