WHY N O L A T I N S ?

T o the Editor:

Recently I watched the tennis 
matches between thp world’s lead- 
p r of fusional*, ncluding two I,at- 
ir,-Americans, 
Pancho Gonzales 
ar.d Pancho Segura.

th a t 

Then I began reflecting on the 
fact 
I have never seen a 
I.atin-American name among the 
lists of those making up the squads 
and te ams of the various sports 
gr ou ps of the ('Diversity of Texas. 
So f ar R3 I can recall, there ar e
the Uni­
no Lat in-Americans on 
versity 
baseball 
squad, 
tennis 
football squad, swimming 
squad, 
team, 
team, 
team, boxing 
and so on and so on.

traek 

I wondered, in view of the fact 
t h a t there are ma ny Lat in-Ameri ­
cans on 
the various high school 
teams tha t come here n annual 
if this could tie the 
competition, 
result of a series of coincidences, 
or is it the resul t of a fixer) poli-
cv? Per haps our various coaches 
could enlighten me on this point.
