Aggies Strand 15
As Win String Breaks
Winner of their last five starts after an opening day
loss, the Aggie baseball team left 15 forlorn runners on the
bases here yesterday and bowed 4-0 to New Orleans of the
AA Southern association.
Righthander Jerry Nelson gave up only three hits and
two runs, one earned, in the six innings he worked, but the
Aggies, getting runners on base in every inning, never could
dent the plate. Nelson beat the Pelicans 5-3 at Huntsville
Friday.
Four or five major leagued
scouts were in the stands as
the Pelicans’ Les Phillips held
the Aggies at bay through the
first five innings, giving up
only three hits.
From the third until the seventh,
(Ronnie Sheetz took over in the
sixth) the Aggies went hitless,
though getting men on on walks.
A&M left the bases loaded in the
seventh and ninth innings.
New Orleans first scored in the
second, on two hits and a walk.
Right fielder Dick Stuart singled
inside third base, stole second and
came home on center fielder Chuck
Buheller’s single.
Buheller went to third on a bad
throw to the plate by center field
er John Stockton, trying to peg
out Stuart, but was tagged out at
the end of an attempted double
steal that turned into a double
play.
The Pelicans scored again in the
fourth inning, on first baseman T.
R. Taylor’s single, Dick Bleckner’s
error, a hit batsman, wild pitch and
two walks. Nelson retired the side
with the bases loaded.
Golfers 5-4
Lamar Tech of Beaumont edged
the Aggie varsity golf team 5-4
yesterday on the A&M course fol
lowing Monday’s Cadet loss to the
University of Houston. (See sep
arate story, page 4).
A&M’s Bobby Briggs was med
alist with a par 70, Lamar’s Dave
Moody shot a 71. Bi’iggs defeated
Hugh Scarbrough, 2 and 1. Moody
downed Wick Vennard, 5 and 4.
Lamar won team play between the
two duos, 1 up.
Marcelino Moreno, A&M, and
Fred Baird, Lamar, halved, and
Jud Thomas defeated Jerry Durbin,
A&M, 3 and 2.

for their first day out,” said Les
Palmer, coach of the Fish nine.
Second sacker Carlos Esquivel
and hurler Jimmy Wright may
start working out today, said Pal
mer.
The Fish dropped a 3-2 practice
game to Bryan high school last
Friday with Pinky Cooner and Ira
Oertling handling the pitching
chores.
“We looked terrible in the
game,” said Palmer, “but I’m
pleased with our improvement
since then.”
A&M opens its season at Waco
against the Baylor Cubs April 2.
McClelland is among 30 Fish
trackmen journeying to Houston
Saturday for a dual meet with
Rice. Both varsity and freshmen
teams will compete.
“The meet looks like a toss-up
to me,” said Coach Frank Ander
son, “but I think our freshmen
can match anything Rice has.”
Kenneth Hall, outstanding cin-
derman during his high school ca
reer at Sugarland, probably will
come out for track later this week.
Freshmen and varsity 440-yard
relay teams test each other for
time today along with the low
hurdlers.

■ No wonder Winston’s winning so many
friends so fast! College smokers found
flavor in a filter cigarette when they found
Winston. It’s got real tobacco flavor!
Along with finer flavor, Winston also
brings you a finer filter. The exclusive
Winston filter works so effectively, yet
doesn’t “thin” the taste or flatten the flavor.
