‘Jug* Freiling-Up and Coming; PAGE 4 Wednesday, November 4, 1959 THE BATTALION
Die-Hard Farmers TackleOutstanding Against Arkansas Desperate Ponies Saturday
The Texas Aggies have put much faith in their sophomores this season as they look to the future but one of them is doing his best to even up the record and get back on the win track this year.
He’s Wayne Freiling, 5-8, 205- pounder from San Antonio, one of three Edison products on the Aggie squad. Freiling, who moved from third to first string in the last two games, was the best defensive lineman A&M had on the field in the 7-12 loss to Arkansas at Fayetteville last week.
“Wayne is improving each week,” Coach Jim Myers says of the stubby but sturdy guard. “With the experience he’s now getting we expect him to be a real comer in the Southwest Conference next year.”

Willie Zapalac, assistant coach in charge of defense, calls Freiling “a typical Tennessee guard—short, fast, strong and a good pursuer.”
Called “Jug” by his teammates because of ins build, Freiling is a great competitor, aggressive and has much desire.
A business major—he wants to go into personnel work after graduation—FYeiling is different than
many present-day college players. He’s been a guard all of his playing career. Many players have been at several positions by the time they complete three years of prep ball and four of college.
“I never had much ambition to carry the ball or catch passes,” Freiling says. “I just want to mix it up and help the ball carriers find holes,” he adds.
Wayne (Jug) FreilingThe Aggie sophomore has been a suprise starter for the Farmers this year at guard. The stocky athlete was called the best defensive lineman the Cadets had on the field last Saturday against the Arkansas Razorbacks.
On the move at home and abroad
From Florida to the Philippines, from Alaska to the Dominican Republic ... General Telephone — America’s second largest telephone system — is getting around these days.Our job is to bring people closer together through modern communications—in the states and overseas, as well. Right now our operating companies and affiliates serve more than S1^ million American homes and offices and a number of foreign countries. On top of this, our overseas manufacturing subsidiaries in Belgium and Italy provide much needed communications equipment to markets almost everywhere in the world.In this country, General Telephone’s growth in the past ten years has paralleled the strong, healthy growth of America, itself. As for the future -every sign indicates a continuation of this expansion, a growth potential that’s practically unlimited. For instance, we are adding new telephones at a rate of 750 a day. And we’re investing almost $200 million in new telephone facilities this year, alone.This is a typical example of how we strive ... not only to meet today’s communications needs but to answer tomorrow’s.

Although he’s helping Aggie backs find holes Wayne prefers defense to offense. His last two years at Edison Wayne played both ways and was instrumental in his team going to the state semi-finals both years. Nederland defeated Edison in both seasons.
Wayne, when asked for his best high school game, couldn’t recall off hand but figured “it must have been the San Benito game my senior year when we got off to a good start, led them 28-0 at the half and went on the win, 35-6 in the quarter-final playoff game.”
Freiling is one of four Edison products who played for George Forehand and wound up at Aggie- land in recent years. The others, all current sophomores, are Way- land Simmons, tackle and Eddie Van Dyke, halfback. Wayland is the brother of A. L. Simmons, who played during the John David Crow era (1955-57).
“My father played football for Edison,” Wayne recalled, “and I have an older brother, Don, who is a senior center on the Abilene Christian College team this year.”
Wayne was a third-teamer until the Baylor game when he won a starting left guard assignment. He also started the Arkansas game and if he has his way and continues his improvement each week he’ll stick in the starting lineup.
Wayne is the latest of several sophomores to move up on the Aggie squad this year. The others are Simmons who plays left tackle behind Gale Oliver of Refugio but who starts on defense, Van Dyke who was bothei’ed earlier by d bad back; End Russell Hill of Dallas, Guard David Skinner of Fort Worth; Halfback Jim Murphy of El Reno, Okla.; Fullbacks S. J. Halpin of Beaumont and Bob Caskey of Gonzales and End Richard Love of Lampasas.
Texas A&M, out of contention, and SMU, trying to stay alive, meet Saturday afternoon on Kyle Field in a Southwest Conference game.
It Will be the final meeting for two of the greatest passers in conference history—Don Meredith of SMU and Charles Milstead of A&M. The Aggies, led by John Crow, prevailed in 1957 when Meredith as a sophomore unveiled his famed spread formation. Crow led the Aggies to a 19-7 victory.
Last year at Dallas Meredith and his fleet of fast halfbacks rolled over the Aggies, 33-0. That was the game that saw Milstead go out with a knee injury, the same leg that he hui’t against Baylor two weeks ago. Milstead and all
Aggies hands are in top physical shape this week.
The Mustangs, after tying Rice 13-13 and losing to Texas, 0-21, must win all remaining games to stay in the running for the SWC title. The Aggies are out of it with losses to TCU, Baylor and Arkansas but hope to continue their improvement and bring their season record up from the current 3-4 mark.
Although losing to Arkansas at Fayetteville last week the Aggies forced the Porkers to utilize their speedy backs and come from behind for the 12-7 victory. The play of Aggie sophomores was pleasing, especially by Backs S. J. Halpin of Beaumont, Eddie Van Dyke of San Antonio und Jim Murphy
Aggie Frosh Idle This Week After Victory Over UH Kittens
Chandler’s Aggie their first game of
Coach Tom freshmen won the season last 'week with a 20-6 victory over the Houston Kittens. The Fish, idle this week, meet the Rice Owlets on Kyle Field Nov. 12 at 7:30 p.m.
After dropping one-pointers to the TCU Pollywogs and the Baylor Cubs, the Aggie yearlings got on the win track with speed and offensive punch plus a couple of fine goal-line stands. Outstanding Fish in the Houston victory were linemen George Hogan of Longview, Keith Huggins of Houston, James Walton of Dumas, Jerry Hopkins of Mart and Bobby Huntington of Plainview and backs Tommy Janik of Poth, Ronnie Brice of Andrews, John Kent of Houston, Lee Roy Caffey of Thorn- dale, Jon Mason of Los Cruces, N. M., and Mike Roguemore of
Carthage.Janik was the starting quarter
back for the Freshmen against Houston, and turned in an outstanding job offensively and defensively. The tall, 6-4 athlete proved himself a capable field general in the contest.
Several members of the Fish squad missed the Houston game with injuries, among -them Fullback Sam Byer of Marlin, one of the top rushers on the frosh squad, and Eddie Dolezal of San Antonio. Both athletes are expected to be ready to go in the upcoming contest against the Owlets.
The Chicago White Sox have five players who have held down first base. They are Ted Klusze- wski, Earl Torgeson, Billy Goodman, Norman Cash and Sherm Collar, their regular catcher.
of El Reno, Okla., and Guard Wayne Freiling of San Antonio. Milstead directed this sophomoric team to the lone touchdown.
Another dependable performer who helped the Cadets look good in a losing cause was Center-Linebacker Roy Northrup, junior from Amarillo. It was Northrup’s best game to date and the blond defensive quarterback always gives an all-out effort.
This will be the 42nd renewal of the SMU-Aggie series which dates to 1916. The Aggies lead in victories, 20 to 16 with five ties.
