Trow ARE SURE Wfeeft Yen &«eosM Aggies Strand 15 As Win String Breaks Winner of their last five starts after an opening day loss, the Aggie baseball team left 15 forlorn runners on the bases here yesterday and bowed 4-0 to New Orleans of the AA Southern association. Righthander Jerry Nelson gave up only three hits and two runs, one earned, in the six innings he worked, but the Aggies, getting runners on base in every inning, never could dent the plate. Nelson beat the Pelicans 5-3 at Huntsville Friday. Four or five major leagued scouts were in the stands as the Pelicans’ Les Phillips held the Aggies at bay through the first five innings, giving up only three hits. From the third until the seventh, (Ronnie Sheetz took over in the sixth) the Aggies went hitless, though getting men on on walks. A&M left the bases loaded in the seventh and ninth innings. New Orleans first scored in the second, on two hits and a walk. Right fielder Dick Stuart singled inside third base, stole second and came home on center fielder Chuck Buheller’s single. Buheller went to third on a bad throw to the plate by center field er John Stockton, trying to peg out Stuart, but was tagged out at the end of an attempted double steal that turned into a double play. The Pelicans scored again in the fourth inning, on first baseman T. R. Taylor’s single, Dick Bleckner’s error, a hit batsman, wild pitch and two walks. Nelson retired the side with the bases loaded. Golfers 5-4 Lamar Tech of Beaumont edged the Aggie varsity golf team 5-4 yesterday on the A&M course fol lowing Monday’s Cadet loss to the University of Houston. (See sep arate story, page 4). A&M’s Bobby Briggs was med alist with a par 70, Lamar’s Dave Moody shot a 71. Bi’iggs defeated Hugh Scarbrough, 2 and 1. Moody downed Wick Vennard, 5 and 4. Lamar won team play between the two duos, 1 up. Marcelino Moreno, A&M, and Fred Baird, Lamar, halved, and Jud Thomas defeated Jerry Durbin, A&M, 3 and 2.

In other games, squadron 12 beat squadron 6, 5-1; A anti-aircraft artillery eked out squadron 17, 8-7; squadron 22 nipped A infantry, 4- 3; and A chemical coips shutout squadron 16, 2-0. for their first day out,” said Les Palmer, coach of the Fish nine. Second sacker Carlos Esquivel and hurler Jimmy Wright may start working out today, said Pal mer. The Fish dropped a 3-2 practice game to Bryan high school last Friday with Pinky Cooner and Ira Oertling handling the pitching chores. “We looked terrible in the game,” said Palmer, “but I’m pleased with our improvement since then.” A&M opens its season at Waco against the Baylor Cubs April 2. McClelland is among 30 Fish trackmen journeying to Houston Saturday for a dual meet with Rice. Both varsity and freshmen teams will compete. “The meet looks like a toss-up to me,” said Coach Frank Ander son, “but I think our freshmen can match anything Rice has.” Kenneth Hall, outstanding cin- derman during his high school ca reer at Sugarland, probably will come out for track later this week. Freshmen and varsity 440-yard relay teams test each other for time today along with the low hurdlers.
