Mulhollen-W illiams
Glove Final Bound
By JOE BLANCHETTE
Quinton Mulhollen and Harold
Williams, two-hard hitting, fast-
moving Aggies will compete in the
Texas Golden Glove finals in. Fort
Worth after winning their respect
ive division bouts at the Allen
Academy Gym Friday and Satur
day nights.
Harold Williams will represent
the cream of the Bryan area light
heavy-weights as he decisively de
feated Roy Abridge of Allen Aca
demy Friday night.
The lithe Aggie pounded Abridge
unmercifully with looping hoobs
and as far as the Allen Academy
fighter was concerned he was lead
ing only with his chin.
Mulhollen will fight in the Fort
Worth tourney as a featherweight
after winning in the Bryan tourna
ment by default.
Other Aggies who fought in the
Bryan meet were Pat LeBlanc, El-
wood Schmidt, Hosea Taylor, B.
D. Manning, Phil Duron, James
Lopez, Richard Clarb, Jack Fow
ler, Bill Bedford, Ken Womack,
Joe Jackson, Dick Frey, Jesse Viv-
ero, Charles Lucas, and Roy Mar
tin.

Meeting Planned
For Handballers
There will be an important
meeting of all interested Hand
ball players Wednesday, Feb.
14 at 5:00 p. m. in the Physical
Education Department office.
Mr. Herman Segrist, sponsor of
the Handball Team, would like
to meet all players in order to
get the team organized for com-
Shall We Dance?
Jewell McDowell is definitely not encouraging a game of patty-cake
with Baylor guards Bill Harris (5) and Bill Fleeetwood (7).
When McDowell took the bounce, Harris' was so surprised he for
got the ball; John DeWitt—like so many times during the 48-36
Bear route—came up with the valuable sphere.
Fish Suffer Double Loss;
Varsity Plays Hogs Tonight
While Lon Morris Junior College
was sowing the seeds of victory
over the Aggie Fish, the A&M
varsity quintet was riding the
rails northward to meet the Ark
ansas Razorbacks in Fayetteville
tonight.
In the preliminary to the A&M
vs. Baylor tilt Friday night in De-
Ware Field House, the Fish fought
doggedly against the Cubs in an
effort to break the losing streak
which has been hanging over them
since the Cubs defeated them earl
ier in the season.
Played Catch-Up
The fish tailed all the way up
until half way through the sec
ond half when big Roy Martin,
6’ 7” fish center, tipped in James
Addison’s free throw to shove the
fish one point ahead. This rapidly
grew into a five point lead as
hopes of victory soared.
In the closing seconds of the
second overtime, the Cubs staged
two fast breaks and a free throw
which shot them into the lead by
five points and spelled defeat to
the fish to the tune of 45-40.
The following night the fish in
vaded the domain of the Lon Mor
ris JC Bearcats at Jacksonville,
Texas, where paced by Juan Roig,
Aurelio Ramirez, and “Bo” Cus-
ley, the Bearcats shot into an early
lead and left the fish eating their
dust throughout the entirety of the
game.
The fish never regained their
equilibrium as the Bearcats ripped
through their weak defense to roll
up a total of 69 points against the
freshmen’s 47.
John Floyd, Texas A&M basket
ball mentor, usually gets a better
workout than do his charges. He
believes in “showing” rather than
“telling” his charges how to play
a position.
Razorback coach Presley Askew’s
cagers will be seeking consolation
for the 34-33 defeat handed them
by the Aggies two weeks ago in
a sizzling game in DeWare Field
House. Those who saw that game
will remember for some time the
narrow thread by which Aggie
conference hopes held as the Raz-
orbaeks led up to the final three
seconds of the game.
It was big Walter Davis, tower
ing Aggie center, who leaped into
the air and tipped in Jewel Mc-
dowell’s long shot to pull the
Farmers out of the hole and into
the one point lead which deemed
A&M the victor.
Arkansas holds a position very
near the bottom in conference
standings, but this in no way af
fects the threat they present to
A&M’s championship chances with
the Aggies in their present posi
tion of six wins and two losses.
Ags Skin Br’er Bruin;
Fur Market Collapses
Playing a faster-than-usual
game and shooting with dead
ly accuracy, the Aggies rip
ped through the visiting Bay
lor Bears last Friday night by
a fat 12- point margin, 48-36.
The over-flowing throng
was surprised to see the Aggies
take long shots from all angles;
they were delighted when the
home-towners connected .416 of the
time.
As long as forward Ralph John
son, who scored 22 of Baylor’s 36
points, was connecting with re-
Ags Break Two
Records While
Sinking NLSC
The A&M swimming team
sank Northwestern Louisiana
by a score of 42-33 last Fri
day night as two pool records
were smashed.
Don Blundell of the Aggies set a
pool record of 2:33.6 in the 200-
meter backstroke and Dan Lockey
of NLSC collapsed a pool and col
lege record by breezing in with
a 2:39.8 in the 200-yd. breast
stroke.
The Aggies would have won by
a higher score if Tommy Butler
and Ralph Ellis had not been dis
qualified for failing to touch the
pool ends when turning since inter
collegiate swimming rules state
that at least one hand and one foot
must touch the bank in a turn.
Sixteen points were collected by
the Aggies in the 220-free-style
and 200-yard backstroke alone with
Van Adamson turning in a 2:22
in the freestyle event while the
abovementioned 2:33.6 was made by
Blundell in the 200-meter back-
stroke.
SMU will be the next opponent
of the Aggie mermen when they
journey to Dallas on the 17th of
February.
So far this season, the Aggie’s
record is two wins and a 2nd place
in the SWC Relays at Houston
January 13th.
Beat SMU
markable consistency the contest
was in doubt, but throughout the
second half the Aggies allowed
him but six markers and then
rolled through the last ten min
utes unmolested.
First blood was drawn by Bay
lor when guard Howard Hovde
stached one of two free throws,
but Buddy Davis retaliated with
one of his own to start a torrid
pace in which the lead changed
hands frequently.
Fast Finish
With 7:36 still on the clock A&M
had leaped ahead by four points,
22-18, but as soon as Bear forward
Derrell Davis closed the gap with
a tallied three, Jewell McDowell
and John DeWitt squelched the ef
fort with a combined five.
Johnson, guard John Starkey,
Marvin Martin and Davis all got
into the act then and ran the score
up to 30-28—in favor of A&M—
DeWitt and McDowell hurried in
two field goals and the half ended
with the Aggies out in front, 34-
28.
The fans almost went crazy the
second period for the Bruins nev
er tasted a point for nine minutes
and 43 seconds; then Johnson made
a liberty. The outcome was inevit
able as A&M dropped in two points
for everyone of Baylor’s.
McDowell Shines
It was a great night for Mc
Dowell in particular, who scored
14 points to be A&M’s point lead
er. In the last three games McDow
ell had been unable to find his
range and had shown little of his
old form, but he erased all doubts
of his ability when, in the second
period, he put on a beautiful show
of dribbling and shooting that was
almost perfect. He rolled up nine
points in that second frame and
romped through the Bears at will.
It was not a one-man game by
any means for all the Aggies shone
brilliantly. DeWitt played alertly
throughout and purloined the ball
again and again. Davis and Mar
tin, who both fouled out late in
the second half, received a well
deserved hand from the fans for
their stalwart aggressiveness,
while little Woody Walker, whose
four points were more than half
of his previous scoring total,
showed that a small man can play
offensive and defensive basketball
as well as any six-footer,
This was the sixth conference
win for A&M and the seventh loss
for Baylor. Texas, who defeated
Rice, 77-51 the same night, still
leads the SWC with a (i-l record,' 1
while A&M is second with (i wins
and two losses, TCU is third with
5-2 record. j
