A&M meets an up and coming Oklahoma City university
team tonight at Oklahoma City that twice has dropped the
powerful University of Houston oagers.
The .Chiefs also added TCU to their list of conquests at
the first of the season.
The Aggies have fallen twice to the University of Hous-
'♦ton this season, 63-85 and 66-
107.
Lyndon Lee, a fast-stepping
6-3 forward, sparks the
Chiefs’ fast breaking offense.
Lee’s jump shot helped him pile
up 24 points in the University of
Houston game Monday night.
Oklahoma City lost the services
of its 6-5 center in Monday night’s
U of H contest.
The Oklahomans use the same
man-for-man defense employed by
the Aggies, and Coach John Floyd
has drilled his team on offensive
maneuvers all week, concentrating
on breaking through this defense.
A&M returns home Saturday
night for the annual battle with
the Texas Longhorns. Texas has
showed signs of breaking out of
its early season slump, and dumped
Arkansas last Saturday, 75-74 in
overtime.
“There’s no doubt about it,” said
John DeWitt, A&M’s assistant
coach, “the Longhorns are steadily
‘improving with the help of some
good sophomores.”
Raymond Downs, Texas’ sensa
tional junior forward, jumped into
third place in SWC scoring this
week by scoring 30 points in the
70-79 loss to Rice. He had counted
41 points in the Longhorn victory
over Arkansas.
Ray Buclwine sparked A en
gineers to a 20-0 victory over
D field artillery in upper
classmen intramural football
yesterday.
Budwine tossed two touchdown
passes and ran over for the other
score. He also passed and kicked
for two extra points.
In other games, Leggett hall
beat Walton, 12-6 and B engineers
won on penetrations over squadron
3.
Don Little bucketed 14 points to
help C armor to a 34-20 win over
squadron 12 in freshman basket
ball; Jim Boyen sank 13 points to
aid D field artillery in a 23-15 win
over A ordnance; David Eby rang
up 11 points to lead B infantry to a
15-11 victory over A armor; Bill
Olander managed eight points as
squadron 11 won over squadron 3,
34-9; and Wyman Battise led
squadron 16 to a 13-10 win over B
armor.
Squadi-on 18 won over squadron
7, 2-1, in upperclassmen tennis
play-offs, and squadron 10 beat
squadron 11, 21.

Tom Walsh is a white-haired, pixyish Irishman with a
remarkable gift for balarney who, as their advance publicity
man, volubly believes the fabulous Harlem Globetrotters are
the biggest draw in sports and can spend all night proving it.
The little guy ‘blew’ into College Station Tuesday night
to spread the gospel about the Trotters before their date with
the Philadelphia Sphas in White coliseum next Wednesday
night.
Crowd Looks Like Sellout

before joining up with owner Abe
Saperstein. The first thing he did
after ordering dinner at the MSC
(ahd even then he kept up a run
ning line of chatter on the Trot-
ers) was ask for a dry Martini.
Sorrowfully told he couldn’t
have ope, he expressed himself in
typically outspoken language, then
continued his razzle-dazzle lin
guistics on the Trotters and any
other phase of sports.

ington Generals also), and it prom

crowd in the area’s history. Al

$1.25 general admission tickets are
gone and all of the 250 $2.50 seats.
There are about 1,500 reserved
sats left on the west side and a
few on the pullout bleachers. All
indications point to a sellout crowd
of 7,427.
Trotters Drew Four Million
Walsh explained that until they erstein promptly 1
get a comfortable lead, the Trot-
ters go allout on straight basket
ball.
the incomparable Goose Tatum and
Leon Hillard take over with the
techniques that helped draw over
four million fans last year alone,
more than any sports team in the
world.
Tatum, probably the best known
figure in the world of sports, orig
inally tried out for the Birming
ham Black Barons, Saperstein’s
baseball team, in 1940 or ’41 after
he served a hitch in the army.
Even then. Goose, born in Eldo
rado, Ark., June 21, 1921, had the I
famous herky-jerk, floppy arm ac

the Trotters.
Hillard, billed as “The World’s
When they get a big margin, Greatest Dribbler,” was playing for
McKinley high school in Chicago
when Saperstein • spotted him. Abe
watched him for two or three
years, and when Marquez Haynes
quit, Hillard took his place. “Sap
erstein’s always got his eyes out
scouting,” Walsh said. Obviously,
