Becoming increasingly philanthropic, the Aggies of Coach Beau Bell blew their fourth of five league contests and any hope they might have had for another conference title. The Frogs put together nine runs in two seventh innings to erase Aggie leads and maintain their unmarred league record. TCU now stands alone atop the SWC with a 5-0 rec ord, while A&M owns a poor, 1-4 mark. The scores, although not important, were 6-4 Friday and 7-5 Saturday. The Aggies banged out 12 hits in each game, pulling their team bat ting average to .254, while the Froggies got eight and nine, respectively, for the weekend. Breezing along with a compara tively safe, 4-1, lead, A&M’s soph omore hurler, Donnie Hullum, tired in the seventh and TCU scored five times, three on Joe Selman’s homer. Bell had had Captain Dick Munday warming up in the bullpen, but didn’t get him into the game until the eighth, too late. Saturday’s contest was almost identical, with the Maroon lead ing, 4-3, going into the fatal sev enth. Toby Newton, the starter, had been relieved for a pinch hit ter in the sixth and Munday was on the mound for A&M. The Aggie hurler got one out, then walked Charles Quick and Carl Warwick singled him to sec ond. Hunter Enis drove out a base knock, too, but Warwick was pick ed off second after taking too big a turn, and there, were two outs. Jim Shofner popped to short, but Wayne Balke dropped the wind- \\j/ THIS HOMBRE lives in a Dallas palace. He’s got oceans of oil, carloads of cattle—and plenty of Luckies, too.

Dayle Casey and Jim Pollard came through with singles, Shofner scor ing and Casey came home easily when Munday wild pitched. A&M had Frog starter Ken Wineburg in trouble all afternoon, but double plays in the second, fourth and fifth kept the Ags from running away with it. All of the double outs cut off runs. In the second, after Gary Herrington had doubled home Jim Smotherman with the first score of the game, Doug Mullins singled, but TCU centerfielder Warwick cut Herrington down trying to score and the relay got Mullins trying for second on the play. A fourth-inning run was mashed on a third-catcher-first double play and the Froggies pulled another in the fifth when Wendell Reed left third too quickly on Smotherman’s fly to left. A&M scored thrice in the sixth when Mullins, Wayne Balke and Reed hit consecutive singles and Shofner dropped Behn Hubbard’s pop to short. In the home half of the same frame Casey drove a Munday pitch over the wall for two runs that pulled the score to 4-3. A&M leftfielder Behn Hubbard crashed out a tremendous 450-foot homer with no one aboard in Fri day’s contest.
