Roberts’ score matched a 71-yard
Arkansas'drive in the second quar
ter that ended with a six-yard rush
by Buddy Rogers that gave the
Razorbacks a 7-0 halftime lead.
It was the first time in 10 games

Their early push stung into ac

one and tied one in nine previous
games.
The Golden Hurricane took
charge following the tie score and.
ran up 19 points before the third
period dosed.
After halfback Gene Helwig in

first of two failures in a high wind. [
Arkansas Fumbles
On the next kickoff, Razorback
end Bill Jurney fumbled on his
own 41 and in six plays Tulsa had
its third touchdown, Crocker spin
ning over from 13 yards out.
Tulsa added a fourth-period safe
ty when end Ray Tallent and tackle:
Floyd Harrawood blocked a punt
by Louis Schaufele in the end zone.
Arkansas’ second touchdown was
chalked up by Hogue on a three-
yard push after a Tulsa bobble
started the visitors on a 36-yard
march’.
Runs of 39 and 15 yards by Jake
Roberts set the stage for a 27-yard
scoring pass, Morris to end Fred
Smith, for Tulsa’s final marker.

will make their debuts in two intra
squad games. The Fish game
starts at 7 p.m. while the varsity

Head Basketball Coach John L.
Floyd had this to say about the
Cadet quintet which last year fin
ished in a tie for fourth place with
Texas:
“This year A&M folks will sec
several minor changes in A&M
basketball. You will see the team
taking 55 to 65 shots a ball game,
with 95 £ /f of the shots coming from
a short or medium-short range.
“The boys will pass the ball and
move themselves until the defense
is picked off or relaxes, and at that
time the shot will be taken. We
will take advantage of any good,
fast break opportunity, but we’ll be
sure to have the basketball when
we reach the offensive end of the
■court.

Buck Gibson
Gibson scored the Fish’s only
touchdown yesterday at the
start of the second half when he
swept seven yards around right
end to cross the double stripe
standing up. He also averaged
seven yards each time he carried
the ball.
“We will use several types of
defense, but the one you will see
most will be sinking man-to-man
where all players work together
and try to help each other by sink
ing off their man when he doesn’t
have the ball.
“We sincerely hope that you will
enjoy seeing us this evening and
learn to like our kind of basket
ball.”
These two games, will be the first
two intrasquad games that have
been opened to the public this year
in the field house and there will
be no admission charged.
Both the freshman and varsity
cagers have been divided into A

Most impressive of the new

they possessed as green sopho
