Aroused Cadets Score
‘Team Win 9 ; Keith Stars
By RONNIE GREATHOUSE
Battalion Sports Editor
A&M’s penalty-plagued of
fense roared back with the
suddeness of a Texas norther
in a stormy second half to
crush the University of Hous
ton’s hapless Cougars, 21-3, on
hallowed Kyle Field last Saturday
night.
“Team Victory”
The aroused Aggies, after being
held in check by numerous penal
ties, a fumble and pass intercep
tion in the first half erased the
Cougar’s meager 3-0 lead in less
than four minutes, and went on to
pile up the highest margin of vic
tory in the series with the Hous
ton school.
“I’d just like to say that our
entire team played outstanding
ball, both offensively and defen
sively. It was a team victory,”
said Coach Paul (Bear) Bryant.
Bryant’s aggressive squad took
complete charge of the game in the
second half, racking-up eight first
downs to UH’s four, and leading in
total yardage gained with 107 to
63. Houston, after going through
the first two periods without a pen
alty, amassed' 105-yards in the fi
nal half. Sixty of these yards
were for personal fouls or unnec
essary roughness.
Keith Stars
“I don’t have to think about
who was outstanding for us
against Houston, I know! Bobby
Drake Keith should be the line
man of the week. He caught
two touchdown passes, blocked a
punt, and played terrific all-
around ball,” said Bryant em
phatically.
Sunday’s meeting with the press
found Cougar Coach Bill Meek, in
his first season at the win-hungry
Houston school, in an excuse-mak
ing mood. .
“Wa played every bit as well as
they did, but we didn’t come close
to getting the breaks the Aggies
did. Given our share of breaks,
the game could’ve been 21-points in
our favor,” said Meek, after watch
ing his team get trounced all over
again in game movies.
“I like to think we made the so-
called “breaks”, said Bryant,
“TheyTe just part of the game.”
Meek Speaks
After the game Meek came up
with this startling disclosure, “I
think we’ve got a football team.”
More than 26,000 partisan fans
watched the Cadets take the lead
on the last play of the third quar
ter on a 9-yard pass from quarter
back Donnie Grant to end Keith.
Sophomore right halfback Loyd
Taylor kicked his fifth straight ex
tra-point of the young season to
give the Aggies a 7-3 margin over
the Missouri Valley Conference ti
tle favorites.
Burly Bob Clendennen, junior
tackle from Waco, had set-up the
score by pouncing on a fumble by
Cougar Ronnie Logan on Houston’s
23.
Another fumble recovery less
than one minute deep in the final
period, this time by end Bobby
Marks, put the Aggies’ offense in
CHS Lineup Changes
After Losing 7-40
By MAURICE OLIAN
CHS Sports Correspondent
CHS Coach Horace Schaffer
promised several line-up changes
for the A&M Consolidated Tigers
after a 40-7 trouncing Friday night
on their home turf at the hands of
Smiley’s Eagles.
In preparation for the strong
Magnolia Bulldogs, Schaffer and
line coach Larry Hayes will send
their charges through rough work
outs devoted mainly to defense this
week. Coach Schaffer has already
made several changes in the CHS
lineup, and he said that it is now
up to the previous regulars to win
their old jobs back.
The only bright spot for the
Tigers in Friday night’s game,
other thdn the fact that they came
out of the battle with no injuries,
was the showing of Alton Arnold,
135-pound freshman halfback, on
both offense and defense. Starting
his first game in high school, Arn
old picked up 30 yards rushing in
10 jaunts, accounted for all seven
of the Tigers’ points, and was in
on several tackles defensively.

omore guard, Bo Linton, 155-pound
junior tackle, and Bobby Johnson,

Guard Jim Stanley’s booming tack
le of Houston’s Jimmy Dickey was
the cause of the fumble.
Hale Scores
Taylor hit the center of the
Cougar line from 2-yards out sev
en plays later, but fumbled into
the end zone where A&M’s alert
center, Lloyd Hale, fell on the ball
for six-points. Taylor’s kick was
good, and the Cadets led 14-3.
Tempers, like the weather, were
hot Saturday night. Two of UH’s
qharterbacks, Don Flynn and Sam
my Blount, were marched off the
field by an official for personal
fouls in the second half.
Unnecessary roughness was call
ed on both teams on a UH punt in
the fourth quarter, and set the
stage for Keith’s dramatic block of
a kick that led to A&M’s last TD.
The Aggies took over on Hous
ton’s 11, and Jimmy Wright zipped
a pass to Keith straight down the
middle on the first play for the
touchdown. Ed Dudley converted.
The bitterly-fought contest’s
longest run from scrimmage won’t
go into the record books. Full
back Jack Pardee strung tacklers
all over the • field in rambling 52
yards to the Houston 14 in the first
period, but a 5-yard penalty nulli
fied the play.
203-pound senior tackle also turn
ed in fine performances.
Smiley out-rushed Consolidated
187-66 and picked up 64 yards
passing, while the Tigers gathered
63 yards through the air. The
Eagles collected 11 first downs to
CHS’s eight.
The Eagles started the rout with
two opening-quarter tallies. “Tip”
Moore bulled over from the 1 to
break the ice, and Gerald Bussey
scampered six yards to reach pay
dirt later in the period.
The score mounted to 20-0 at
the half as Lindsey scored on an
8-yard blast. Ben Howard con
verted.
Consolidated’s lone tally came
early in the fourth period. Oper
ating from the Smiley 33, Edgar
Feldman connected with Arnold
for the six-pointer. Arnold con
verted to cut the deficit to 34-7.
