A&M 6, TCU4
In the final game the atmos
phere was gloomy, but the game
was enlightening to A&M’s fans.
A four-run homer by John De-
Witt in the first inning, a two-
run double by Shug McPherson in
the fifth, und effective relief hurl
ing by George ; Brown and Pat
Hubert gave A&M a 6-4 victory.
The game featured Frog stalling
tactics £hd~ the ousting of Coacr
Walter Roach and trainer Pete
Donahue because of a heated and
prolonged protest with plate um
pire Jess Bonn.eau in the fourth.
DeWitt’s Blow Deadly ,
The Ags continued their heavy
first-inning scoring when Joe Sa-
varino and Wally Moon walked
McPherson was hit ^ by pitcher
John Swaim, and John DeWitt pow
ered his third 1 conference homer
over the left field barrier.
The Frogs bounced back in the
second, collecting two runs off
three hits from starter Blanton
Taylor.
Realizing the game would have
to go four and one-half innings
before declared official, TCU
players tied their shoes many
times, gave the ball ejtra mas
sages, adjusted basetr, and en
gaged in extraneous controversies
between themselves and the urn-
spires', waiting vainly for rain to
rescue them.
TCU Indifferent
TCU’*, half of the fifth was the
longest i|hree outs played on Kyle
Field this year. The hectic stint, in
which the game was tied, started
when Roach and Donahue were
waved off the playing field after
declaring that Swaim was hit by
Taylor.
After six minutes of frantic
weaving of heads, determined ges
tures of arms', verbs, and verbosity,
Bonnouu gave TCU's brain trust
the thumb. .
After Herb Daves walked and
James Nolan singled, the rhubarb
was renewed when Fred Smith
was called out as he stepped across
m

plate in attempt to bunt a
l(le pitch. i
il ! Frogs Stampede ‘
the entire tCU squad- stam
peded toward Bonneau who tfrcld-
cd to umpire Ag home games at
the beginning-of the season dfceause
it Would be * relaxation front his
.Li...— i 0 f taming r4>ellious
(; East Texas League,
iter having the final
tlhe swarming Frogs,
lay was resumed , until the next
'urple batter reached the plate.
Boyd Beefs
aylor came close to Jim Boyd
ith a blazing fast ball. Boyd
lalmed the ball hit him, and after
[ailing to get the decision from
tonneau, rushed out' to base ump
im Tongate for his opinion. Ton-
ate if course stuck with Bon-
eAu; Boyd disgustedly walked
ack to the plate and drew a base
on i balls.
John Jones singled in Haiyes and
Nolan-—the tying runs—before
Taylor was relieved by Brown who
gathered in tjhe final two outs.
Strange as it may seem, Swaim,
a cool righthander, had a one-
hitter till the decisive fifth; the
only hit had been DeWitt’s homer.
Drizzle Helps Ags
As the final out of the fourth
\yas called, a slight drizzle com-
ihehced which later aided the Ag
cause in the fifth. After Wallace
singled sharply to center, Moon
laid a bunt down the first base
linA that looked like an easy out.
But both SVaim and first base
man Jones Igst their footing on
the! slippery grass. McPherson
then rapped the game-winning
h!ldw past the skating right field
er and hit the right-center field
fence. The double scored Wallace
and Moon with run* number five
and six. . - ’
Bats were silenced until the
seventh>5when Brown was yanked
by Coach Mgrty Karow, and Pat
Hubert, winner of the first game,
took the mound. Qne man was
down and two were on, hut Hubert
gofc one Frog on a force out and
struck out H|ll Barnes to end the
series.
