Scott-Led Whites
Stun Maroons 19-0
By CHUCK NEIGHBORS
Battalion Sports Editor
Don Watson, a surprise halfback
sensation, carried the brunt of an
astonishingly strong White attack
all the way to a 19-0 win over the
burly-lined Maroons Saturday night
on Kyle field.
Part of the annual Sports Day
activities, the intra-squad game
was a preview of Aggie football
fortunes for the coming year for
7,000 fans. Charley Scott*, fresh
man quarterback who was booed
off the field by cadet fans in an
unusual lack of spirit during the
TCU Wogs game last fall, redeem
ed himself and then some by spark
ing an attack which the Maroon

gave up only three hits to lead
the Tigers to a 3-1 win over
the Huntsville Hornets Fri
day afternoon on Tiger field.
Bobby Carter’s hit in the third
frame got away from the Hunts
ville second baseman and in the
ensuing confusion, J. B. Carroll
and David Bonnen scored for the
Tigers. Huntsville^ gave up four-
walks, two wild pitches, two passed
balls and an error in the third inn
ing to allow Consolidated’s runs.

squad sometimes blunted but nev
er quite stopped.
Bob Easley threw his hefty
shoulder into the White effort and
carried nine times for 48 yards on
the Scott-generaled team. Watson
was the outstanding White runner,
however, with 107 yards in seven
onslaughts against the Maroon
line.
Fo^- the Maroons, who had seven
regulars playing for them, Elwood
Kettler’s 56 yards in 10 tries led
the team. With Kettler leading
them, the Maroons threatened once.
They ended a 56 yard drive on the
White’s 16, where they gave the
ball up on downs.
Five players were out of the line
up because of injuries suffered in
practice. They were quarterbacks
Charley Ritchey and Ronald Rob
bins, halfbacks Joe Boring and
Tommy Strait and center Cary
Wofford.

The Aggie varsity diamond squad
is tied with the University of Tex
as for an early lead in Southwest
conference baseball competition.

twice and the Aggies toppled the
Rice Owls twice in a two-game ser
ies here last week. In the final
game here Saturday afternoon,
Lefty Joe Hardgrove pitched a five
hitter to slide past the Owls 3-2.
Friday, speedball artist Jerry
Nelson swooshed an 8-3 win past
the hapless Owls from Houston.
The Aggies’ next conference
game is with SMU in Dallas Friday
and Saturday. Their next home
game is April 6 here against
U of H’s Cougars who downed
Minnesota’s gophers in two
straight games. The Gophers ad

the first quarter of Saturday night’s Maroon-White scrim
mage. Watson’s team won 19-0 in an upset decision fea

Stallings, Maroon right end, is coming up to make the
tackle on Watson, who was downed soon afterHhis picture
was taken.

"Chrome Clod” STEEL TAPES
ore preferred by engineers
When you go out on the job, you want the most durable steel
measuring tapes you can get — Lufkin “Chrome Clad.” The
jet black markings v/on’t wear off, for they are bonded to
the line and protected by multiple electroplatings that further
build up the fine tape steel from which the line is made. The
resulting line is heavier, stronger, and most rust and corrosion
resistant. It is easier to read, easiest to clean, and won’t sur
face crack, chip, or peel. Only Lufkin tapes are available with
Chrome Clad.
