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,

Tigers Show Improvement,
But Lose to Magnolia 21-6
By MAURICE OLIAN
CHS Sports Correspondent
A&M Consolidated’s Tigers
showed some improvement
over recent performances Fri
day night against Magnolia,
but several mistakes left them
on the short end of a 21-6 score.
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.
Order of finishers Friday: Cocke,
A&M; Boles, A&M; John Dahl,
OU; Walter McNew, UT; Wilm-
sen, A&M; Dick Dudley, OU; Ron
Wade, OU; Bob Hanson, UT; Rul,
