Harrington issued a statement
in which he said:
Since, by his own admission,
Coach Stiteler has deliberately
Imisinformed officials of the COL
llege on a matter affecting the
welfare of the institution. his
resignation has been accepted,
effective Immediately.
1T is most unfortunate that
it is necessary for Coach Stiteler's
service at A. and NJ. to end at
this time. Our decision in this
matter is based solely upon the
admittedly misleading statements
made by Mr.. Stiteler to college
officials"
On Year-to-Year Basis.
Stiteler worked on a year-to-
year basis, as any other member
of the faculty.
Stlteler SAID after the fight that
some one took a poke" at him
as he got out of cab at the

other report the beating oc-
CURED somewhere between the
Houston Municipal Airport and
the Shamrock.
Frank S. Gettele, jr., a Sham

he saw the coach get out of a
station wagon at the garage.
He picked up a suitcase and
started to walk toward Main
street. Gettele said. "A man
dressed in tuxedo got out of the
station wagon and whistled.
"Stiteler returned and the pair
seemed to exchange some v.-"ds
I couldn't hear what they said
but I know they were talking
There was no fight"
Face and Forehead Cut.
Gettele said Stiteler came over
and asked him how to get to the
mems rest room.
He looked very pale" the ga
rage attendant said. He had cuts
on his cheeks and forehead, his
right eye was pulled, cut and
closed. His left cheek was
swollen"
Houston police ordered an in
VeStlgation, but dropped it. Texas
Rangers at Houston said they had
investigated at the request of
Texas A. & M. authorities, but that
any statement would have to
come from A. & M.
Stlteler succeeded Homer Norton
as Aggie coach in 1948. Stiteler
took over with A. and M. football

Beat Georgia in Cup Game.
The Aggies lost nine games, tied
one and won none in 1948. They

| Another time when the writers

He says he doesn't pay any at

he's always airing his bitterness

BURGLAR ALARM EPIDEMIC is
OF SERVICE TO LATE SLEEPERS

Downtown residents have been
awakened lately by prolonged
buzzing of what sounds like an
diversified alarm clock.
During the past week there
has been an epidemic of this king
sized ruckus which would, at first
blush, indicate that burglars were
swarming through downtown
business places.
True, the noise is that of bur-
glar alarms, which are touched
off, police say, by weather condi-
tionS.
One authority declared that
there are two factors which set
off the automatic alarms. One is
a heavy wet fog condition and
the other, he alleges, is the vi
bration to buildings set up by
railroad flyers speeding through
town. This shorts the alarm sys-
TENS and sets them off, he alleges.
Oddly, though, most frequent
incidence of the alarms, police
have noted, occur between 6 and
8 a. m. and II and l p. m.
Happily, none of the bell ring
ing has meant burglary, for which
the police are grateful.
