Saturdajy’8 triumph i*uns the Aggie’s Com
to three wins and one loss. The
A&M squad so] far this season has
defeated SMUi, TCU, and Arkan
sas and lost only to Rice.
The A&M Netters looked good
all the way (Saturday, and showed
theii’ versatil.ty by winning match-
es both on the clay courts and on
the boards in DeWare Tieldhouse.
Arkansas scratched in the 'win
dolumn only once in the meet, and
that was in the No. 4 (singles. The
boys from Aggieland didn’t want
tjo take all of the. matches, '
On the very hot clay courts
Saturday afternoon the Aggies
began to take their toll of Ark
ansas men. The singles events
jwere split with.A&M taking one
(when Rodney Sellars cleaned Bill
iHeffelfinger 6-2. 6-3, and Ark
ansas taking the other when Joe,
! (Adams beat Duffy Stanley 6-4,
I 6-3.
In the doubles event Sellars and
Stanley paired tb down Adams
and Hefielfinger in a very close
and well played match with 'a
score of 6-1, 6-8, 7-5.
On the hardwood at DeWare
Fieldhouse Saturday night the
Aggies really began to rbjl and
cleaned up the meet with three
more wins.
The,boys from the hills could
do nothing to stop the victorious
Aggies. Only one Razbrback play
