During the season Adi could manage to win only six, while dropping 16. The loss of Co-captain Allan Pearce to the Navy and the withdrawal from school of four reserves just before the start of confer- ence play hurt the Javelinas immeasurably. Although their season record was not too good, the Javelinas set some new scoring marks. Harlan Huibregtse, the Jave- linas' captain, was chosen to the All-Texas Conference team for the second year. The two- year letterman led all scorers in the conference for the season and was thirty-ninth in the na- tion among small college scor- ers with an average of 17.6 points per game. He was first in the nation in most personal fouls commit- ted. As a team, the Javelinas rated third in the country in personal fouls, Ragan Collinsworth, playing his first year for Adi, was nam- ed to second team in the All- Conference selections. Only one of the seven bas- ketball lettermen finished his cage career this year. Floyd Olson, who earned his second letter thjs season, played his last with Adi. Harlan Hui- bregtse, a junior, was the only other pkiyer to earn his second letter. Others who lettered were Bill Butler and Jack Buckle, juniors; Bob Brandt and Ragan Collinsworth, sopho- mores; and Dick Prime, a fresh- man.

The 79 points the Hogs scored set an all-time record for an A I team. Harlan Huibregtse fell one point short of his scoring record as he tallied 32 points to lead the A6I attack. At Seguin, the Javelinas downed Texas Lutheran 63-47 for their second victory. The Hogs then lost two games on consecutive nights in San Antonio. St. Mary's got revenge for their defeat as they downed A I 67-59. The Brooke Army Medical Center, led by the All-Army players and an All- American center, ran over the Hogs 100-64. Against Brooke, Huibregtse again scored 32 points. HUIBREGTSE (20) LOOPS ANOTHER. A TENSE MOMENT—THEN LOUD APPLAUSE.

A I got off to a good start in conference play as it edged Abilene Christian 81-80 in an overtime game. It was another new all-time scoring record against collegiate competition. The next night, however, ACC took the Hogs 74-48. Two non-conference games were then dropped to St. Edward's University 65-48 and 70-60. The Javelinas were just as ineffective in the re- turn game with Brooke as they were in the first. The Medics downed A I 91-69 in their second meeting. Trinity took its second game from the Javelinas 67-60 after a three-week lay-off when exams, registra- tion, and cold weather interfered with the A I sched- ule.

POTEET, b a., m. a., ll d. PRESIDENT OF TEXAS A I A Busy Administrator ... Working for a Better A § I Dr. Poteet dictating a letter. A man who understands South Texas and its people is Ernest H, Poteet, president of the college. For him, a dream has come true ... a dream of a bigger and better Adi. Shouldering his present position in September, 1948, he was faced with the tremendous expansion of the college. During his short period of administration, many major structures have been added to the physical properties of the campus. Coming to the college in January, 1948, as Director of the Division of Teacher Training, Dr. Poteet quickly won the respect and admiration of his fellow faculty members and students because of his firm but sincere dealings with others. An able administrator and leader. Dr. Poteet is very active in local, state, and national educational work. He has constantly striven for improvement in the academic level of the college, contending that the development of Adi is not to be measured by its physical growth, but by the type of sound education it gives to its students. Only one with such a broad understanding and love of his fellow man could carry on so successful an administration as that of Dr. Poteet. Dr. and Mrs. Poteet with daughters, June and Anne. BOARD OF DIRECTORS Members of the Board of Directors, who give freely of their time, are largely responsible for the rapid develop- ment of Adi. Many things they once dreamed of have come to pass and many of the things they have planned for the future will undoubtedly do the same. In the picture above, those seated are, from left: Holman Cartwright of Dinero; A, Loy Sims of Sinton; Frank C. Smith of Houston, president; Mrs. Frank Morton Lewis of San Antonio, vice-president; and Robert C. Eckhardt of Kingsville, secretary. Standing are: John C. Jones of La Feria; Lon C. Hill of Corpus Christi; and P. E. Peareson of Richmond. At left is Albert Martin of Laredo, who was unable to be present when the group picture was made. DEANS J. C. JERNIGAN. 6. S„ M. S.. Ph. D. Dean of the College Appointed Dean of the College last fall, Dr, Jernigan quickly and efficiently assumed the duties of that position. Prior to that appointment, he had develop' ed a broader and more effective counseling pro- gram as Director of Student Personnel. Active in many professional organizations, he is widely known, too, for the services he has rendered in the field of education and guidance. MRS. FANNIE W. WHEAT, B. A., M. A. Dean of Women A lady of charm, vitality, wit, and intelligence, is Adi's Dean of Women, Mrs. Wheat. Her thoughtful advice, which is constantly sought by students, is always given freely and sincerely. Besides being a counselor, she serves as hostess to newcomers on the campus and puts them at ease with her friendly and sincere attitude, representative of the true spirit of Adi. ROGER E. RICHARDS, B. A., M. A. Dean of Men A man liked by other men aptly describes Mr. Rich- ards, Dean of Men. Taking over his position in September, 1948, the friendly Dean has been a teacher as well as a counselor. He is also active in men's organizations on the campus. Because of his interest in the problems of students, he is always ready to help them in any way he can. REGISTRAR GEORGE W. McCULLEY, B. A.. M. B. A.. Ph. D. Registrar of the college since 1930, Dr. Mc- Gulley has seen Adi grow from just a few hundred students to an institution serving thousands of persons annually. Operating in a quiet, efficient manner, he handles a large staff all the year round and supervises admission problems of the stu- dents. BUSINESS MANAGER JAMES H. COLVIN, B. A., M. S. An administrator who has had a big respon- sibility since he took office in 1947 is Mr. Col- vin. During a major building program and enroll- ment increase, he has handled the financial affairs of the college in a very effective and business-like way. DIRECTORS OF DIVISIONS J. W. HOWE, B. S., M.
