Tracksters
The Aggie tracksters got off to
their worst start in recent history,
Saturday, with a poor third in their
season-opening triangular track
meet with Texas and Houston.
The Longhorns, with perhaps
their finest team, raced to a tre
mendous 105 points, while the
Cougars picked up 46 and A&M
managed only 19. In the freshmen
division, Texas picked up 77 to
Houston’s 44% with the Aggie
Fish third in 33%.

A&M opened the 1957 baseball season in a rather dismal
fashion Saturday, losing a 5-3 contest to the University of
Houston Cougars in a game as dreary as the weather.
The Aggies, who were rained out today in their sched
uled game against Sam Houston in Huntsville, will meet the
Bearkats tomorrow at 3 p.m. on Kyle Field.
Jim Bethea, Houston centerfielder, drove out a home
run, double and single to pace the Cougars to victory. Bethea’s
four-bagger in the third with a mate aboard, off starter Dick
Munday, tied the game at 3-3.
The Cats went ahead to stay in the eighth when Hous
ton pitcher Billy Martin, the third of four Cougar hurlers,
cracked out a double to drive
home a pair of runs for the
win. Martin racked up the
victory as Aggie Paul Lang
got the loss.
Houston went ahead in the top of
the first when Munday hit Arnold
with a pitched ball, then shortstop
Price doubled him home. The Ag
gies came right back with their
three in the home half of the first,
but that was all they could manage.
Coach Beau Bell’s A&M nine put
on brief threats in the eighth and
ninth. Sophomore catcher Gary
Herrington opened the final inning
with a single to center, his second
hit of the day, and Houston Coach
Lovette Hill brought in Dick
Thompson from the bullpen to re
place Martin.

Owls Edge Cagers
In Season Finale
By JIM CARRELL
Playing in their spectacular
manner of late, the Aggie basket-
bailers closed out a. thrilling, but
losing, season with a 59-57 set
back to Rice Institute in Houston
Saturday night.
After almost running Rice’s
heavily favored Owls off the court
in the first half, the Aggies saw
the penalty whistle and judgement
of official O’Dell Preston, coupled
with Ted Harrod’s ankle injury,
turn the tide in favor of the much
taller Houston school.
A&M opened scoring for the
night, running the count to 5-0
before Rice could score, widened
it to the largest Aggie margin of
the game at 18-11, and then saw
their lead trail off to a halftime
edge of 28-25.
Coach Ken Loeffler’s deliberate,
poised offense, led by court captain
Ted Harrod, threw the Rice zone
defense off-stride the first half,
but the Owl’s with 14 minutes
left in the game employed a more
effective man-for-man defense.
With floor man Harrod benched
most of the second half, the Ag
gies were unable to mount a strong
offensive attack.
In an ironical situation A&M’s
two seniors, George Mehaffey and
Ted Harrod finished the game on
the bench, both, by coincidence,
with ankle injuries.
Three Aggies, Ken Hutto, Ernie
Turner and Neil Swisher, out-
scored Rice’s highest scorer for
the night. Hutto threw in 19 points
on jump shots and a driving hook,
followed by Turner and Swisher
with 15 each. Temple Tucker and
Gerry Thomas had 14 each for
Rice.
Wayne Lawrence, in a forecast
of better things to come, whipped
in 40 points, as the Fish toyed
with the Owlets in an 89 to 64 win.
Dave Corson followed with 15
points and Jim Anderson with 11.
The Fish jumped off to a 10-0
lead before the Owlets could score.

^Improvement or Else’
Bear Not Pleased
With Grid Drills
By BOB CLENDENNEN
“Fats” Domino wasn’t at the
practice field yesterday, but the
Ags suffered through an old Blue
Monday anyway.
Bryant called the squad together
before the scheduled practice was
over to tell them that they just
weren’t getting the job done. He
said that there would be vast im
provement tomorrow “or else.”
Work groups have been separated
into two main sections now—one
group is bearing down on polish
ing and the finer points, while
the second concentrates most of its
time on fundamentals.
After Saturday’s game scrim
mage, the whole group has learned
much more about their good points
as well as their bad. Players were
in and out of the projection room
all day, studying the film taken
of the game.
Bryant ordered his assistants to
bear down on getting more ex
plosive speed and better defensive
charges out of the line and backs
as well.
The two hour session saw only
spurts and dashes of good play.
Most footballers made as many
mistakes as they did good points.
According to Bryant, the team
looked “pitiful. There was no
leadership, no nuth’en.”
