Texas Lutheran college of Seguln is being developed into a senior college, six new buildings have been aooroved and of construction will depend uoon availability building material. One of the six buildings to be erected is a $150,000 physical education and health unit and plans are under way to build a football stadium. "The one that will be built will be a good one and fill needs both for hisli school and college," says Garfleld Kiel, public relations 'director of Uie college. A W.

and Rice; Texas used it'to down.A. and M. for the runner-up spot. It's a delayed pass, startino; with the snapback from center going to a halfback who hands off to the fullback moving into the line on what looks like a buck. But when he reaches the line, the fullback stops pivots and flips back about'10 yards to the tailback who passes to one of the ends who has stolen past the 'secondary and is streaking for the goal line.

Beau Beaumier of the Lufkin News discusses the football situation and reasons that Lufkin ought to meet Port Arthur in the state schoolboy semi-finals. Beau also thinks Lufkin can beat Port Arthur again. Down at Porl Arthur they are inclined to wipe that defeat off the list and let it eo as one of those things. The team wasn't up to full strength that Of course, there such matters as Marshall and Waco standing in the way of Lufkin in its drive to the semi-finals. Then, Port Arthiu might not get there, either, since it probably will play a very good Austin team in the quarter finals.

But those in the know say Lufklr is stronger offensively than it was last year when the Panthers wenl to the finals. It certtainly can boast two of the top backs of the year in passer Harmon Carswell and ruunei J. Shands who has scored 18( points while carrying the-ball 149 times for 963 yards and receiving 22 passes for 315 yards.
