Lefty Joe Hardgrove of A&M hung on to record his third SWC victory on a seven-hitter. Hardgrove struck out eight and walked two for the Aggies’ fifth triumph against four defeats. In suffering its eighth loss as compared with a lone victory, Rice got respectable pitching from John Wolda, who gave eight hits but was hurt by loose fielding on sev eral occasions. Fred Ablon walked to open the game and was helped along by an error and a sacrifice bunt, then scored on Joe Schero’s sacrifice fly- With one out in the fifth Don Ellis singled, stole second, and scored on Lou Little’s hit which bounced off Reynolds’ chest. Little went to second on the play and scored on Jimmy Williams’ hit which bounced off Tommy Reck ling’s glove. The Aggies got their final run in the seventh on Ellis’ single, an error, a wild pitch and Little’s line single to right. After Cox had doubled in Rice’s seventh the Owls had a chance to tie it up with none out. But Leroy Fenstemaker bounced to Jimmy Morrison and Cox tried to make it home and was thrown out by sev eral feet. Bill Trotter banged a double into right-center to send Fenstemaker to third, but Bob Stegemeier and Wolda were retired to end the inning.

The game was touted as a hurl ing duel between two ex-Stephen F. Austin (Bryan) teammates, Munday and Owlet Bill Arhos. However, Arhos’ extreme wildness, he issued nine walks, provided the Fish with the victory. Rice scored in the first inning on two singles and a walk, but the Fish tied it up yi their half of the first, as Arhos loaded the bases on walks and then walked in a run. A bases-loaded double by Bill Varner of the Owlets in the third inning cleared the sacks and gave the Rice team a 4-1 lead. A double by Lew Blood scored one run and a single by Tex Bush- nell, scoring Blood, brought the Fish within a run of the Owlets in the third. Bushnell drove in a run on a single and Munday blasted a double to left-center, bringing in Bob Gat- tis, to send the Fish ahead 5-4.
