By DALE DELONG Battalion News Staff Connie Magouirk, A&M’s start ing left halfback, summed it up when he said, “It’ll be a good, close game, and we’ll be ready for them.” Magouirk, of course, was speak ing about Thursday’s traditional Thanksgiving Day A&M - Univer sity of Texas football battle. After a slow start, Magouirk has developed into one of the Aggie’s finest backfield performers. He has gained 236 yards in 46 carries on the ground for second place among A&M’s linebusters and has scored four touchdowns. He hag caught 7 passes for 52 yai’ds and has a 40.5 yard average on four punts. The change to one platoon foot ball didn’t affect Magouirk’s play ing status. He has been a steady performer at defensive halfback. Magouirk’s longest run of the season was against Rice, when he took a Don Ellis pitchout and rambled 54 yards. He scored in the Baylor game on a 23-yard end run. Arkansas’s Lamar McHan, Bay lor’s L. G. Dupre and SMU’s Frank Eidom were named by Magouirk as some of the outstanding backs in the Southwest conference. He called McHan the best all around performer he has played against this season. "Dupre is fast and hard to stop,” he said. “Eidom runs hard and low, and it’s tough to get a good shot at him.” Magouirk had trouble picking the best linemen. “They were all good,” he said. He did single out Bill Ducky of Baylor and John Hudson of Rice. Rice is the best team the Aggies have played, Magouirk said. “They are a fast, hard-hitting, well-bal anced ball club,” he said. “They make long runs because their blocking is exti’a good.” We re Backing You All the Eon way & eo, 103 N.
