Weather Wins Wednesday
Ags Host ’Kats Today
By BARRY HART
Assistant Sports Editor
A&M’s defending Southwest Con
ference baseball champions met de
feat for the first time in 1956
Wednesday—at the hands of the
weather.
High winds and rapidly falling
temperatures with the advent of a
quick norther forced postponement
of the Aggies’ scheduled game with
the Sam Houston State Bearkets.
" Weather obliging, A&M will
meet Sam Houston for the second
time today at 3 p.m. on Kyle Field.
With winds gusting to 40 mph
* and the temperature dropping into
the 40’s, Coach Beau Bell postponed
Wednesday’s game rather than risk
having one of his pitchers come
down with a sore arm and be forced
out of action.
The extra day’s rest may bring
regular third baseman Joe Worden
back into the stalling lineup. Wor
den has had an injured leg, but
may be able to return^ to action
today. If not, he will be replaced
by sophomore Lupe Fraga.
The remainder of the lineup
is unchanged with either Dick
Munday or Doug Mullins getting
the call to the mound. Munday
received credit for A&M’s sea
son-opening win over the Bear-
kats, 6-3, in Huntsville, giving
up three runs and seven hits in
the seven innings he worked.
Mullins hurled the last two
against the prison town team,

Dorm 16, D-Field
Cop Grid Crowns
By JOE DAN BOYD
Keith Presswood’s outstanding
play in civilian football yesterday
carried Dorm 16 to a 12-0 win over
Leggett Hall and possesion of the
grid championship. Clayton Moh-
le’s deceptive ball-handling wasn’t
enough to check the fired-up Dorm
16 team.
A rally by p'owerful A-Engi-
neers came far too late in their
upperclassman title match with
underdog D-FA. Jim Spencer’s
artillerymen outplayed the Engi
neer team with a consistent aerial
attack which came to life in the
second half to send them ahead
6-2.
Carleton Hazelwood copped the
heavyweight wrestling title for
the second straight year by decis-
ioning Charles Kappelman in yes
terday’s wrestling finals. Both
grapplers are from Leggett Hall.
John Watson of Sqd. 4 won the up
perclassman 191-pound title by
besting C-Infanrty’s Gene White.
Jones wrapped up the 177 bracket
for D-Infantry by downing A1
Rial of A-AAA.
BizzelPs Raul Laustanau was
awarded the 167 championship via
a forfeit. Bob McDowell of Leg
gett out-grappled C-Infantry’s
Dub Bailey for the 157 division
crown and Don Schoenfield of Sqd.
17 took the 147 title on a forfeit.
Dick Cappel of Sqd. 17 defeated
Mitchells’ Billy Steele for 137-
pound honors while Don Burchard,
defending champion in 130-pound
ranks repeated by pinning down
C-AAA’s Ted Hrabel. Jim Terry
drew a forfeit in the 123-pound
division. All forfeits were attribu
ted to sickness or injury.
COACH PHIL CUTCHIN dia
grams a play for halfbacks Bill
Dendy and Bobby Conrad, right.
The Aggie footballers stayed in
side yesterday and studied mov
ies of Tuesday’s scrimmage.
Ag Bowlers Face
BAFB, Trinity U.
The top five Aggie bowlers roll
against the Bryan Air Force Base
Jets Saturday at 2 p.m., while the
top ten Bowling Club members will
test Trinity University here Sun
day afternoon at 2.
Bill Smith, who’s 174 is current
ly the best average, is followed by
John Redden, Clay McFarland, M.

lers.

ers are Floyd Hardiman, Joe Blie-
den, Ken Savage, A1 McClellan,
Fred Hazlewood, Redden, McFar
land, McDonald, Butler and Smith.
Golfers Look To
Border Olympics
Coach Joe Fagan’s Aggie golf
ers, runners-up in the Southwest
Conference race last season, will
compete in the coming Border
Olympics at Laredo March 9-10.

voort, is listed on the nine man
roster this season. Four juniors,

ing Dick Chapman, Bobby Nichols,
