Aggies Overpower
Crow, Pardee, Osborne
Lead Lop-sided Victory
AWAY BOY, YOU BOTHER ME—John Crow slashes
past an unidentified Hog tackier on his way to part of the
72 yards he contributed out of the Aggies’ 325. Looking
for someone to knock down in the background is A&M’s
Don Watson (24).

With the calm accuracy of a
champion marksman, A&M took
careful aim on Arkansas’ almost-
rejuvenated Razorbacks on murky
Kyle Field Saturday night and cut
the Hogs into tiny pieces, win
ning 27-0.
It could have been worse, but
Coach Paul (Bear) Bryant called
off his butchers after their final
score midway in the third period
and let his second bunch carry the
load from there.
The upset-minded Porkers, after
a pair of victories over Texas and
Mississippi, could have stayed in
Arkansas for the impression they
made on the nation’s fifth-ranked
team. Arkansas managed only 40
plays from scrimmage to the Ag
gies’ 83, struggled for a measly
six first downs and 82 yards rush
ing to A&M’s 24 and 325 yards on
the ground.
Coach Jack Mitchell’s team went
to the air ways nine times, but
couldn’t find a receiver once, while
the Cadets tried seven and com
pleted three, a pair for touch
downs and 61 yards. Bryant’s
jarring front line, led by all-
American candidates Charlie
Krueger and Dennis Goehring,
caused Arkansas backs to fumble
five times, losing the ball once to
the Aggies.
Jarrin’ John Crow, the greatest
thing to cross the Sabine since Sam
Houston, turned in another mag
nificent performance, insuring him
an all-SWC berth and possibly all-
American. Crow scored two touch
downs, ran 16 times for 72 yards
and turned in a fine all-round
defensive game.
Jack Pardee definitely decided
who is the league’s finest full
back as he completely out played
his Arkansas counterpart, George
Nesbitt. Pardee crashed the mid
dle 14 times for 62 yards, and
turned in his typical all-Ameri
can linebacking, including a pass
interception to stop the first of two
scoring threats by the Fayetteville
gang.
Quarterback Roddy Osborne,
game after game making fools of
the experts as he turns in. the
big play, led both teams in rush
ing with 90 yards on 15 trips. Os
borne also pitched a 37-yard scor
ing pass to Crow to open the Ag
gie onslaught.
“It was a team effort, especially
in the line,” said Bryant. “Goehring
was probably outstanding of all the
good play in the line. Crow was
the outstanding back although Os
borne and Pardee played well.
Pardee left no doubt who the best
fullback is. Crow’s blocking and
hard running put him at the top of
the backfield. He made several
big plays including key blocks on
drives, made several first downs
with his running, caught one TD
pass and scored another.”
After an exchange of punts (the
first Arkansas series gained noth
ing in three attempts) the Ag
gies opened on the Hog 47. Loyd
Taylor drove for three and Pardee
crashed the middle for a pair.
Osborne kept for the first down
and on the fourth play found
Crow all alone in the left flat and
hit him perfectly with a looping
pass. John turned on the steam
and outran two defenders to the
goal line. Taylor’s kick was good,
the Cadets led 7-0 with 5:50 gone
in the game.
Arkansas managed their most
concentrated attack immediately
after the kickoff, moving from
their own 36 to the Aggie 15 where
Pardee grabbed off Don Christian’s
pass to stop the drive.
Another punt exchange gave the
Aggies the ball on the Porker 39.
A pair of 15-yard penalties
nullified each other and Crow’s
nine-yarder gave A&M a first on
the 28. Pardee moved for-r-six and
Don Watson was dropped for a
two-yard loss on an end-run at
tempt. Pardee got four over the
middle and Osborne made the first
to the 18. Pardee hit the center
for four again, then three. Os

Don Gander sen (right) discussing characteristics of a transmitting horn on a radio relay tower.
Young man on a mountain
If Don Gundersen isn’t in his office, he’s
probably on a California mountaintop
making tests and surveys prior to the
raising of a radio relay tower.
That’s part of Don’s job as an engineer
with Pacific Telephone and Telegraph
Company. With other young engineers
he makes field studies, then analyzes the
data and decides where to locate equip
ment for mobile radio, radio relay and
point-to-point radio links.
He haS to ansvver a lot of questions,
such as “How high must the towers be?
How much will access roads cost? What
will the control circuits cost? What are
the chances of transmission interfer
ence?” And those are only a few.
“The answers Jiave to be right, too,”
says Don. “The recommendations we
make control, hundreds of thousands of
dollars’ worth of construction. There’s
no way in the world of ‘burying’ a mistake.
“But I like responsibility, and the
chance to make real contributions. . The
telephone business is growing so fast, and
technological improvements are coming
along in such volume, that opportunities
to get ahead are excellent. If the business
looks remarkable Roday, think what it’ll
be like twenty years from now!”
Donald L. Gundersen graduated from the University
of Washington in 1949 with a B.S. in Electrical Engi
neering. Other interesting career opportunities exist
in all Bell Telephone Companies, Bell Telephone Labo
ratories, Western Electric and Sandia Corporation.
