* Tho layoff finds the Aggies rest
ing in the fourth slot in SWC
standings at the half-way mark,
and looking forward to even bettei-
things in the second half. A&M
has a 3-3 record against conference
opponents and a 6-12 overall record
this season.
Coach. Ken Loeffler’s Cadets are
only one game hack of the third
place Rice Owls, who stand 4-2 in
SWC action. During the mid-term
holidays the Aggies didn’t fare too
well, losing two straight.
The powerful Oklahoma City
Chiefs bounced the Ags, 76-56, at
Oklahoma City Jan. 30 and five
days later A&M lost by a lop-sided
74-105 score to the strong Houston
Cougars at Houston.
Saturday night A&M journeys to
Waco to battle Baylor’s Bears, cur
rently locked in a three-way tie for
fifth position in the SWC derby
with Texas and TCU. All three
have won one and dropped five in
conference contests.
SMU, undefeated in loop games,
and one of the top 20 teams in the
nation seeks its 11th straight«vic-
tory of the season tonight and its
22nd consecutive triumph on its
home court. The Mustangs play
host to an old rival—the University
of Texas. Baylor and second place
Arkansas clash at Fayetteville in
another game tonight.
Bill Brophy, 6-3 Aggie marks
man, dunked 33 points iu A&M’s
loss to Houston to set the individ
ual high mark for single game
scoring on the team this season.
His point making efforts during
the holidays pushed him into the
8th spot among SWC season scor
ers.
Brophy’s 228 points over the sea
son is also tops on the Aggie quin
tet, with sophomore Ken Hutto
only four points behind with 224.
Hutto has the best per-game aver
age to date with 14.9.
George Mehaffey remains first
among Cadet shai-pshootei's in
SWC scoring with 101 points, al
though he dropped from third to
a seventh place tie with Arkansas’
Manuel Whitley among conference
leaders. Hutto is eighth in SWC
scor-ing, having bucketed 95 points.
Ponies Streak
To SWC Lead
With 6-0 Mark
With half the Southwest
Conference basketball season
in the record books SMU’s
high-flying” Mustangs are off
and running toward their
second consecutive league title.
Undefeated with a 6-0 record,
in SWC action, the Ponies downed
the dangerous Arkansas Razor-
backs in Fayetteville, 58-53, last
Saturday to drop the Porkers into
second place.
THE LONG AND SHORT OF IT—Coach Ken Loeffler, who
is officially listed at 5-10, steps in front of A&M’s George
Mehaffey, tallest man on the starting quintet at 6-4, to
explain a thing or two in a practice session. A&M, now
fourth in SWC standings, resumes play against Baylor at
Waco Saturday night.
