In addition to these team honors,
Olympic Star Darrow Hooper
climaxed a brilliant collegiate re

shot put and discus for the second
time at the Border Olympics and
the Drake, Texas and Kansas re

the Border, Texas and Kansas
classics three times and the Drake

Rice Next Aggie Foe;
Hitting Is Picking Up
The Aggie baseball team jour
neys to Houston this weekend for
a pair of Southwest conference
games with the Rice Owls.
New-found hitting power has
caused spirit to surge upward, and
the Farmers figure to be very
tough to handle in their remaining
six SWC games.
The Aggies go into the Rice
series on Friday and Saturday
with a conference mark of five
victories and four defeats, while
the record over the season is
balanced at nine wins and nine
losses.
Nelson Wins Two
Jerry Nelson added two victories
to his pitching record as he reliev
ed Melvin Work in the Friday SM
U game and pitched five innings
to get credit for the 14-5 win over
the Ponies. Nelson came back Mon
day to go the route against the
TCU Horned Frogs for a four-hit
3-2 victory. The wins gave him a
conference record of four wins and
one loss, and his season mark
stands at four wins and two losses.
Heft Leads Hitters
Don Heft leads Cadet hitters
in the 18 games played to date,
with eight hits in 29 times at bat,
for a .276 average. Tex Farmer is
next with 17 hits in 67 at bat for
a .254 season mark.
Nelson leads the pitchers in
games won and lost, with a 4-2
mark, although Ed Hennig won
the oply game in which he was a
pitcher of record. Work leads in
the earned run average column,
giving up six earned runs for a 1.7
average. Lou Little has an earned
run average of 1.8 to hold down
second place in that department.
Aggie outfielders are closely
pressed by the pitching staff for
fielding percentages. The regular
