The Longhorns wiped out an 86- 81 Aggie lead, took a 100-88 ad vantage and broke a two year SMU string. Texas finished with 128 points, A&M 113, SMU 81 and Rice 13. Arkansas, Baylor and TCU didn’t compete. A&M swimmers set two SWC records—in the 200-yard individual medley and the 300-yard medley relay. Dick Weick won the medley in 2:15.8, shattering the old mark of 2:18.1 set by Adamson’s son, Van, in 1950. Weick had set the previous pool record of 2:17.5 ear lier this year. Weick, John Sp’eich and Norman Ufer covered the relay distance in Last Week of Drills Starts for Gridders 3:02.9, breaking UT’s 1949 reqord of 3:05.3.

The Cadets got a day off yes terday but have their 14th prac tice session today. They probably will finish the 18 days of drills' next Monday. Fullback Ken Hall scored three touchdowns Saturday as the Whites, predominantly freshmen, beat the Maroons 28-27. Quarter back Bobby Conrad gained 115 yards in 12 carries for the Whites, including an 80-yard scoring scam per on the first play from scrim mage. Bryant didn’t get to see the of fensive fireworks, however. He was the referee of the Border Olympics in Laredo. The two elevens started these lineups: Whites—Ends, Bobby Marks and Bobby Keith; tackles, Charles Krueger and Henry Clark; guards Gene Baker and Paul Lillard; cen ter Lloyd Hale; quarterback, Con rad; halfbacks, Billy Dendy and Loyd Taylor; fullback, Hall. Maroons—Ends, Gene Stallings and Dean Meeks; tackles, Darrell Brown and Jack Powell; guards, Dee Powell and Joe Howell; cen ter, Herb Wolf; quarterback, Don ald Grant; halfbacks, Carlos Es quivel and Ed Dudley; fullback, Jack Pardee. Jimmy Wright, Billy Stevenson, Bob Stolusky and Roddy Osborne saw a lot of action in the White backfield. Elwood Kettler, John Crow, Don McClelland and Bobby Ewell alternated for the Maroons. Conrad’s touchdown and Taylor’s extra point, his first of four, gave the Whites a 7-0 lead. Crow, who missed practice Wednesday and Thursday because of a bimised arm, put the Reds back in the game, in the second period, scoring on a 24 yard run after a pitchout from Kettler. The snapback on the conversion wts too high and there was no chance for a kick. Hall put the Whites back in front, bursting loose on a 27 yard scoring run a trap outside right guard, the same play on which he scored his other two.
