Finding Hardin-Simmons already well stocked with tackles this year, he enrolled at West Texas instead, with the chance to play more football. Now Hardin-Simmons has lost a pair of its front-line tackles and wishes it had him back.

Mostly, Kimbrough will rely on sophomores both as starters and replacements. He feels he has two fine quarterbacks to run his T-formation in Bubba Hillman and Kenneth Clapp, both 175-pounders. The Buffs figure to be improved this year at ends and at center, but are thin in the guard and tackle positions where weight and experience drop sharply. In the backfield the burden falls on R. L.

Rhoten, 190-pound fullback who averaged 4.5 yards per carry in 33 carries last year. And Joe Walden, 175-pound junior halfback, who made 507 yards in 81 carries, is ticketed for a great share of the ball-packing chores, too. Folk around Canyon even the more loyal addicts admit that the Buffaloes might get stampeded this year as they did last when they won only one game and lost 10. But they meditate joyfully over what the next few seasons couid bring, protesting that this year's club might be mostly sophomore but in a couple of seasons will be playing as a senior unit and could duplicate the 1950 conference championship when West Texas went on to beat Cincinnati University, 14-13, in the Sun Bowl. The Buffaloes make two trips to Arizona in late October, playing Arizona State College at Tempe Oct 23, and the University at Tucson Oct 30.

He has his squad with better spirit is being more strict than in the past few seasons, and keeps sighting at the horizon for palmier days.

NASCAR stocks take the South Mountain spotlight again tonight with the more than 30 regulars By FRANK GIANELLI Republic Sports Editor CANYON, (Special) West Texas State ruled the Border Conference in football in 1950 and dreams fondly of an encore. This isn't the year. Not, at least, with a squad that's light, not too fast, and predominately sopohomore. Of 17 varsity lettermen last year only seven return and among the missing is Bob Whelchel, jolting fullback who was among the nation's leading ground gainers, las year. Whelchel was involved in some disciplinary action last -season and dropped out of school.

Of the starting squad for Coach Frank Kimbrough, only two are seniors, two are juniors, and the rest are sophomores. One of the seniors, and probably the outstanding prospect on the squad, is Wayne Gumm, Bums scheduled to renew their chase for NASCAR championship points and chunks of the $400 purse.
