Ags Finally Lose 61-47;
Fish Speed to 71-59 Win
DeWare field house last night al
most became a graveyard for Rice’s
hopes for a 1054 Southwest con
ference basketball title, but the
Owls ran away from a tenacious
band of Aggies in the final min
utes for a (!l-47 victory.
In the opener, the Fish sped to a
71-59 win over the Owlets to break
a two-game losing streak.
After a dull first half, the Ca
dets roared back in the second half
and had a 45-all tie with 5:56 to
play. But superior speed and re
bounding finally told, and the Owls
outscored the Aggies, 16-2, from
then to the final buzzer.
Forward Don Lance scored 10 of
those last 16 for Rice and wound
up with 21 for the evening, the
game’s high. Smooth Gene Schwin
ger was “off” on his shooting, but

Both Schwinger and Aggie James
Addison scored 19 points. Most of
Schwinger’s goals came on tip-ins,
and Addison made 7 of his 8 goals
on beautiful layups.
Rice had a 53-26 edge on re
bounds. The Owls sank 24 of 64

With 2:33 left in the third quar
ter, Pat McCrory hit a jump shot
to give the Cadets a 33-32 lead,

The Owls widened the gap to 7

Full Schedule
Meeting People
Yesterday held a full sched
ule for A&M’s new head coach
Paul Bryant as he set about
acquainting himself with his
new home.
His first move of the day was a
visit to the office of Chancellor
Tom Harrington for a routine get-
acquainted session.
Later he and former Aggie head
coach Ray George met in a 45-min
ute conference in Bryant’s Memo-
rfal Student Center hotel room.
The two discussed the overall ath
letic situation as it now exists here,
including football players returning
next season.
Bryant said he had not yet talk
ed with any Cadet gridmen person
ally. During the morning he also
met briefly with former athletic
director Barlow (Bones) Irvin and
athletic council chairman W. L.
Penberthy.
At a noontime luncheon break
Bryant told reporters that he still
had nothing to announce concern
ing when he would open spring
drills or what changes will occur
in the present athletic staff. He
did imply that an announcement
concerning these topics would be
made in the very near future.
Bryant said that he knew noth
ing of the details concerning end
coach Bill Duncan’s leaving. The
letter of resignation had been sent
to Irvin, who reported that Dun
can’s letter indicated he planned to
enter private business.
Bryant retired to his room early
following an informal visit with
President David H. Morgan. Mor
gan was absent at the time of
Bryant’s arrival Monday night, and
did not return until late yesterday
afternoon.
Duncan Resigns As Coach
End Coach Bill Duncan yester
day resigned his position at A&M
“to enter private business,” said
Barlow (Bones) Irvin, former ath
letic director.
Paul (Bear) Bryant, A&M’s new
head coach and athletic director,
said that the resignation was not
turned into him—“That was before
I got down to the athletic office,”
he said. Yesterday Bryant still
was getting organized after arriv
ing here Monday night.
No decision had been reached on
his coaching staff, said Bryant.
“We hope to make an announce
ment in the near future,” he said.
Duncan was unavailable for com
ment last night. The Associated
Press said that he wants the job
of football coach and athletic direc
tor at Port Arthur high school.
Yesterday John Tomlin, the former
Port Arthur coach, was dismissed
by the school board.
Irvin said that Duncan made no
mention of the Port Arthur job in
his letter of resignation. He said
Duncan wrote that he was resign
ing to go into private business.
Duncan was the fourth football
coach to resign within recent weeks
at A&M. Ray George, fonner
head coach, Dalton Faircloth, back-
field coach, and Gil Steinke, back-
field coach, preceded him.
Duncan came to A&M in 1952
from Beaumont’s French high
school, where he was head coach
and athletic director. He was an
end on the ’39 Aggie national cham
pions. After leaving A&M in 1940,
Duncan played pro ball with the
Long Island Indians, then entered
the army in February, 1941.
After World War II, Duncan
was an assistant coach at Wichita
Falls, then became head coach at
Belton.
