Six Times, Win 7-6
By BARRY HART
Battalion Sports Editor
The tornado was over at half
time Saturday but the Ag-g - ies
weren’t.
Led by a 150-pound whirlwind
named Watson, A&M staved off a
furious TCU offensive barrage for
44 minutes, finally yielded a-touch
down, then drove 80 yards in the
final period when it seemed all was
lost to win, 7-6.
Before a sellout crowd of 42,000
the Aggies, battling as an A&M
team has never fought, before,
stopped the previously fourth-
ranked Froggies on their 28, 23,
13, 2 and six-inch lines. Only
twice could the nation’s second
best offense burst past the double
stripe and one was called back for
a penalty.
TCU controlled the ball 77 plays
to A&M’s 42 mostly in the Aggie
half of the gridiron, but when the
Purple got close, the Cadets got
tough and that was the story of
the game.
A shirtsleeved crowd entered
Kyle Field in sunny 86 degree
temperature, but before the open
ing quarter was complete 90-mile

winds were blowing torrents of
lain into the emptying stands.
Thousands sought cover below the
seats, but they were all back for
the finish they’ll remember as
much as the historic comeback
against Rice in 1955.
Four times the Aggies lost the
ball on fumbles, the last one by
Roddy Osborne that John Nikkei
fell on for the Frogs on A&M’s
30 midway in the third quarter.
Fullback Buddy Dike plowed for
four up the middle and Jim Swink,
looking like the all-American he
is, swished for 11 and a first on
the 15.
Quarterback Charlie Curtis fir
ed a pass incomplete and little
Virgil Miller got one. Curtis shot
a strike to O’Day Williams who
took it away from Osborne and
John Crow as he fell out of the
end zone for the touchdown. Har
old Pollard’s kick was off to the
right, but no one knew how big
that would be. The clock read 1:20
left in the third period.
Pollard kicked off to Gene Stall
ings who returned to the A&M 32.
Watson and Osborne carried for a

Burdette Throws Spitter
Wally Moon, outfielder and first
baseman for the St. Louis Cardin
als and former Aggie baseball
great told a meeting of the College
Station Lions Club yesterday that
“I know Lew Burdette is pitching
the spit-ball.”
“He is the only man in the ma
jors, however, who can get it over
the plate one out of three times,”
Moon said in answer to a question
about Burdete’s conti'oversial pitch
ing- style which has prompted the
charges that he uses the illegal
pitch.
Speaking at the club’s weekly
luncheon in the Memorial Student
Center, the former Aggie wound
up eight in National League Bat
ting with a .298 avei-age.

first down to the 43 as the quarter
ended and the Corps yelled a little
louder.
The Aggies drew five for off
side and Goehring recovered Jack
Pardee’s fumble for a three-yard
gain. Osborne went back to punt,
fumbled the snap from center and
Norman Hamilton blocked his try.
Vernon Uecker covered on the Ag
gie 23 and the gloom fell thick on
the Cadet fans.
Swink m®ved for five, then Wat
son picked off Curtis’ pass in the
end zone and the skies got a little
brighter.
With beautiful blocking from
Pardee and Watson, Ci'ow rumbled
around right end for 21 yards and
a first on the 41 and the thunder
came from the Corps now, not the
heavens. Osborne kept for two
and then little Watson, almost dup
licating his scoring scamper that
beat the Toads a year ago, slipped
for 37 to the TCU 20.
Crow got two on the dive, then
smashed around right end for 11
to the seven and a first down. Os
borne kept for two, then lost three.
Again it was Watson, magnificent
this day, taking a pitchout from
Osborne and floating a perfect
pass to Crow who took it all alone
in the end zone for the touchdown
as the stands went into hysterics.
Loyd Taylor came in and calmly
stroked the ball over the desper
ate leaps of the Friggies for the
winning point and the sun broke
through.
