So he’s going to lug his own stretcher around to every game. After his senior halfback Johnny Paff received a broken right leg on Joe Sexson’s dare-devilish T8-vard touchdown punt return, everyone at Tech looked around for a stretcher to move the boy to the hospital. But no stretcher was available. The stretcher, a gadget that should be as much a part of football as the helmet.and hip-pads, apparently was “for-

DEAR JIMMIE:

* After reading your article in

the. Sunday Times, I contacted several of the former Tech athletes of my area and find their opinions are the same as mine, It is quite a joke that our friend of many years, Paul Myers has been removed for several unexplained reasons. In Paul's defense, he not only developed many fine athletes but was very understanding of young men’s problems and was as interested in building character and morals as he was in developing athletes. If the alumni brought pressure to remove Coach Myers, it was a small group of persons better known as “The Closed Corporation,” not a representative group of the thousands of Tech alumni and former athletes. In attending many of the sport events in recent years it has be-

come very apparent to me that, only the administrative | {Heads ™ut the parents of several! | Spot.

from your Tech alumni readers?
