kept the visitors in the contest.

off three Tiger bobbles and added
five more on three hits and three
more Tiger misplays in the third.
The Bengals bounced back with
Ben Jackson’s solo blast into right
field in the second and six runs on
six hits in the third including a
three-bagger by Clark.
The Bengals pushed ahead in
the fourth on back-to-back doubles
by Williams, Bill Haley and Clark’s
single before three strikeouts by
Clark in the Huntsville sixth
brought across two tieing runs.
Two dropped third strikes, an out
field error and three passed balls
gave the Hornets the needed tal

But Williams’ run-producing
double and Clarks sacrifice fly
brought home the final game win
ning runs.

Cougars Score, 5 »2,
Victory Over Farmers

their first victory over the Aggies
since the opening game of 1957

The work of Peters was aided
by the work of the Cougars Tickl
ers. In the first inning, the Aggies
loaded the bases on walks, but
when John Burton punched out a
line drive to right center, Fielder
Virgil Fisher was there to halt the
rally.
In the second inning Dink Pat
terson opened the Aggie bid with
a double to right but Second Base-
man Gary Nelson made a diving
catch on Bill Wisdom’s grounder
