ON KYLE FIELD
By I’AUL MARTIN
Two changes have been inserted j until actual ^day .gets started
During the first half their floor
game was working nicely, but th»y
missed as many as twelve shots
in a row at some stages of t|hc
ijaUM.'; \ ‘
The Aggies started the game off
fast, took a 2 to 0 lead, and at tihe
end of six minutes were leading 6
to 4, but East Texas put on a scor
ing spree at this point, took a ,11
to 6 lead and never wag headed
thereafter. Al the half the Aggies
were trailingjby nine points lj9 to
28, and except for a brief instant
following the intermission ^hen
they pulled vyithin seven points of
the East Texas club, the>l never
were in the ball game afterwards
although they hustled bat'd all the
way. A&M couldn’t seem to click
and the Lions ran the score up to
51 to. 29 at the midway poibb of
the second half. With the East
Texas reserves; in the Ags reduced
this margin down to 52 to 43 at the
end, but couldn’t get enough bas
kets through, to pull even.
The freak play of the night oc
curred during the first half when
^tumbow turned, passed
to Lion center Gaiter i
foaled* him in an atteraptf tip kee
him from shooting. Ca;
jdiately.j made the
throw.

idea of keeping the game ejean and

to call fouls as they; see them, but

If nothing else, tpe Aggies can
well be proud of the jgym floor this
year. The multi-colored lines (used
as markers for tennis, volleyball,
and basketball) witjh the maroon
border looks sharp. Marty Karow,
