Named Back of Week
BACK OF THE WEEK—A&M’s 150-pound Don Watson,
who was named Back of the Week by the Dallas Morning
News after his tremendous game against TCU last week.
Watson intercepted a pass in the end zone to shut the door
in the Froggies face, slashed 37 yards to the Horned Frog
20 in the Aggies’ scoring drive, then passed for the touch
down to John Crow to win, 7-6.

‘‘Serving Texas Aggies”
Watson Wins Title
Of Game-breaker
By JOE DAN BOYD
Don Watson’s Saturday heyday
against TCU’s fourth-ranked Frogs
is a familiar story with the wirey
Aggie backfielder, dating back to
his senior year at Franklin High
School.
Not only has the shifty halfback
broken up two straight tussles with
the terrific Toads, paving victory
paths for underdog A&M, but on
both occasions the “Watson magic”
came in the final period with the
Ags trailing and twice won for
him “Back-of-the-Week” distinc
tion.
In Saturday’s showdown battle,
Watson halted the heralded Frog-
gie offense with a dramatic pass
interception and blazed 37 yards
in the following Aggie scoring
drive to the TCU 20. The 150-
pound dynamite charge climaxed
A&M’s scamper, passing to John
Crow for the payoff touchdown.
It was history repeating itself, as
42,000 fans recalled last year’s
similar exhibition by the Aggie’s
tiny mite which again more than
equalized the two great gridiron
+
teams.
“It makes me think of my senior
year in high school,” Watson said,
“when we came from behind in
the fourth quarter to defeat a
favored Hearne eleven by one point
for the District championship.”
Watson thinks the TCU team
which performed Saturday on Kyle
Field was every bit as good as
last year’s SWC Champs and scorns
attempts to credit the weather with
any part in the victory.
“We didn’t really try any harder
against TCU than against any
other team,” the crafty halfback
added. “We try hard in every game,
the amount just depends on the
quality of our opposition. For in
stance, on several occasions our
defense rose to meet serious situa
tions and seemed to perform best
when the chips were down.”
“I guess we were ready for them
though,” admitted the flashy
“Back of the Week.” “It seems like
our workouts went along smoother
all week and everyone played to
gether Saturday, especially in the
fourth quarter.”
Sqd. 6 Blasts ‘A’ TC
36-26 in Basketball
By DON BISETT
Class A basketball was in the
limelight today on the intramural
sports scene. Floyd Thompson and
Bob Coscia, with 13 points, each led
Squadron 6 to a 36 to 26 victory
over ATC. Bob Hardee with seven,
Don Weber with six, and John
Octerbeck with five led the ATC
squad in their futile attempt.
Wes Henderson and Larry Carter
with 10 points each were the big
guns in A Engineer’s attack as
they won a thriller from Squadron
4, 28-26. Paul Creel of the defeated
air force team was high point man
of the game with 12 points.
In the only walk-away of the
afternoon Squadron 7 blasted
Squadron 7, 18 to 3. Sam Marlow
with six and John Stewart with
five led their team in the slaughter.
Roy Stewart with 11 points and
over half of his team’s total of
20 led them, Squadron 15, to victory
over Squadron 5.
Five games were played in class
B, football yesterday. The results
of these games are as follows; A
Armor lost to Squadron 5 by the
score of 13-0, Squadron 4 beat D
Infantry on a safety 2-0, and C
Infantry defeated Squadron 3 by
a score of 6-0. B Infantry beat
Squadron 2 by the bare margin of
one 20 yard line penetration in an
otherwise scoreless game, and
Squadron 1 beat A Infantry 19-0
in a game which was the most
thrilling from a scoring standpoint.
