COLLEGE STATION. Tex.
Jan. 5.-The resignation of Ray

parture Of two assistants, means
an almost entirely new football
regime for the Aggies.
George, whose team lost its
last five Southwest Conference

announced intention Of entering

porters he is out Of coaching.
Speculation today on his sue
cessor turned on these names:
Mike Michalske, AIM line
coach. former Penn State and
Green Bay Packers guard.
j. v. Skies. former Texas A6sM

coach at Kansas last November

AIM If they want me-" Skies
was A6SM freshman coach in
1885 and 1886 and assistant

Georges resignation is effec-

President David H. Morgan
George said he wanted to give
A6SM time for it's new coach to
organize affairs. and also "en-
able the college to take advan-
tage of contacts with coaches
from over the country attending
the NCAA meeting at Gin

Expressing surprise and regret
at Georges decision, Morgan ac-
cepted the resignation and
named George assistant athletic
director until his resignation be-
comes effective.
Two assistant coaches at A6SM
have resigned in the past month
but neither evidenced any dis
agreement or dissatisfaction
with the A6M setup. Dalton
Faircloth became coach OF

1t is dscouraging because unfortunately the cost of

by the inspector in the interest of public safety must be

But, in the interest of public safety the inspector
must be hard fire started in this guys property may
easily spread to neighbors property who has had his
wiring fixed. So it wouldn't be fair to the neighbor to
let this get by with fire hazard because he's hav-

However, the Inspector himself is having hard time
getting by ptiful City saarys sometimes so over
