Tuesday, October 11, 1955 THE BATTALION Page 3 Breeze Past Cornlinskers 27-0 - i|p 1 ! »‘ By RONNIE GREATHOUSE Battalion Sports Editor A&M, relying on the well developed muscle of its re serve strength, romped to its easiest win in over two years at the expense of Nebraska’s Cornhuskers last Saturday, 27-0. A standing-room-only crowd of 40,000 saw the outmanned Huskers battle the Aggies through a score less first quarter, then wilt before a three touchdown barrage in the second period. “We didn’t play as hard against Nebraska as we did in our two previous games,” said Coach Paul Bryant. “But, of course, we man aged to win.” Bryant gave his backfield reg ulars, John Crow, Jack Pardee and Loyd Taylor, an unexpected rest. All three watched the second half’s activities from the sidelines. The Aggies’ ground-stingy de fense held highly regarded Ne braska to only 114 yards rushing and 19 passing. The Huskers nev er penetrated the A&M 20, and in four games A&M has not been scored against on the ground. Led by halfback Ed Dudley and fullback George Gillar the Cadets ground out 252 yards rushing. Dud ley was the Aggies’ leading ball carrier with 50 yards on four trips. Gillar had 44, followed closely by Don Watson and Kenneth Hall, who both had 41 yards. “Our quarterbacks looked better, and Hale and Stallings were out standing for us in the line 5 ” Bry ant said. Crow, Pardee and Taylor, who had carried the brunt of A&M’s of fense to date, gained less than 25 yards between them in their short stay in the ball game. Crow car ried four time for 13 yards, while Pardee took the ball only once for 1 yard. Don Erway, the Cornhusker’s hustling quarterback, got exactly nowhere against the aggressive DOUBLE-DUTY DON—Don Watson has seen action at both quarterback and halfback this season. Against Ne braska he averaged almost seven yards per carry, gaining 41 in six cracks at the line. A junior, Don runs the 100- yard dash in 9.8. In Cross Country Cocke, Boles Lead Aggies Over OU, SJT With three men finishing among the top five, A&M’s defending Southwest champion cross country team opened its season with a sweeping victory over the University of Oklahoma and the University of Texas last Friday on the A&M cross country course. Led by lettermen Bill Cocke, Bob Boles apd Carl Wilm- sen, who finished first, second Aggie defensp, in fact he had mi nus 6 yards in nine cracks at the line. His passing record was per fect—no completions in five at tempts. Bob Clendennen, a husky 225- pound tackle from Waco, set up the Cadet’s first TD by intercepting a lateral by Erway on the Nebraska 31 late in the first period. Ten plays later, and now in the second period, Taylor, Crow and quarterback Donnie Grant had worked the ball to the Husker’s 1- yard line. Grant burrowed through for the Aggies’ first score. Taylor’s kick was good and score read 7-0. Less than three minutes later the Cadets took advantage of another scoring opportunity. Gil lar intercepted a stray pass off the arm of Willie Greenlaw and returned 30 yards to the Nebraska 37. A&M moved the ball to the 26, where Gillar shot through a hole in the Husker line, found himself in the clear, and raced the remain ing distance to score standing up. Taylor’s extra point kick was good again with 8:40 to go into the half. The Aggies roared back after Nebraska was forced to punt, and marched 87-yards for their final tally in the first half. Hall and Watson took the ball to mid-field. Grant hit end Gene Stallings with a 20-yard aerial to the Cornhusker 26, and Dudley circled left end for 18-yards to the 8. On the next play Grant found Dudley all alone in the end zone, (See FOOTBALL, Page 4) Beat ’em Aggies .. But you can’t beat our . . . JUICY HAMBURGERS . . . CHILI DOGS . . .

The loss was the fourth in five starts, for the,, Tfererg- their lone victory coming" over Madisonville, and their third consecutive non district defeat. For the Magnolia Bulldogs, it en abled them to stretch their win streak of five straight. Coach Horace Schaffer was pleased with the Tigers’ defense, as a whole, and was particularly impressed by the defensive efforts of Donald Vaughn, Bobby Johnson, Manuel Garcia, Jack McNeely and Bill Kavanaugh. Offensively, Garcia, Kavanaugh, freshman quarterback Edgar Feld man, and sophomore center Stead man Davis were the standouts. Although Feldman completed only four of 14 tosses, he accounted for 125 of Consolidated’s yards through the air, and gave Magnolia many anxious moments. The Bulldogs opened the scoring with a 61 yard drive the second time they had possession of the pigskin. CHS pulled within one point of the Bulldogs with one lightning fast blow 1:19 shy of the half. Feldman pulled the trigger on a 50 yard pass which Alton Arnold hauled in on the Magnolia 30 and scampered the remaining distance untouched. Arnold, who has done all the scoring for the Tigers in their last two games, never got a chance to kick the extra point, as the snap from center was fumbled. and fifth respectively, the Ag gies scored 28 points to Okla homa’s 44 and Texas’ 48. Cocke’s winning time was 12:23.8. “We did mighty well against two big schools,” said head track coach Frank Anderson, “and got off to a good start on the season.” Ray Putnam coaches the cross country team. A&M travels to Austin Friday for a dual meet with Texas. “It should be another win for us,” said coach Anderson,” but they’ll have the definite advantage on their home course.” The Aggie harriers travel to Ar kansas Oct. 28 and meet SMU here Nov. 5. The SWC meet sends Tex as, Arkansas, and SMU after A&M,’s title in Austin Nov. 21. Rice, TCU and Baylor have not entered full teams for years.
