A great athlete
I read with pride the piece
about Elvis "Boots" Simmons
(Eagle, Nov. 20). Not only did
. he have an outstanding war
I record, but, to my thinking, is
one of the best, if not the best
ends to ever play at A&M. He
could out-block, outrun, out-catch
any player.
All this and he was and is a
wonderful man. I hope that those
in charge of selecting Hall of
Fame players will take a. careful
look at his athleticism while at
A&M.
