Aggies Whip
5-2
Newton Hurls Win,
Brilliant in Clutch
By JIM CARRELL
The brilliant clutch pitching of southpaw Toby Newton
and Donnie Hullum found timely hitting of another pitcher,
Dick Munday, providing excellent support and the Aggie
baseballers rebounded from a seven-game losing streak with
a rousing 5-2 victory over the Baylor Bears on Kyle Field yes
terday.
Newton, the Galveston junior, turned in his best per
formance to date, twice pitching himself out of the hole and
fanning 10 batters in six innings. He scattered seven Bay
lor hits and walked only four.
Wendell Reed led Aggie hitters with two singles and
a double but yielded hitting honors to Baylor’s Jerry Mallett
who singled three times and
TENSE Moment FOR A&M BATTERY—Lefty Toby
Newton and catcher Gary Herrington, finding the bases
loaded and none out, paw the dirt and talk things over in
the fourth inning of yesterday’s game against Baylor.
Newton then acquitted himself by striking out the side and
A&M won 5-2.

also doubled. Munday, play
ing first base, hammered out
a two-run homer in the fifth.
The victory brings A&M’s
conference record to 2-7 and the
Bears’ third SWC defeat places
them closer to elimination and Tex
as nearer the title with only one
loss.
The Aggies, though outhit by
the Bears 10-9, got the hits when
they counted, and broke out with
two nans in the second that end
ed 34 scoreless innings.
Opening scoring in the second,
the Aggies combined two hits with
two errors for the two runs. Lupe
Fraga beat out an infield hit to
short, Joe Worden struck out and
Newton hit one by the first base-
man for an error. Reed singled
to center with Fraga holding at
third.
Behn Hubbard hit a ball to sel-
ond for what looked like an easy
double play, but Reed’s slide into
the bag threw the shortstop off
balance and Donnell Berry erred on
the throw at first with NeWton and
Fraga scoring. Hubbard was tag
ged at third for the third out.
In the third, Fraga hit a ground
ball to third and advanced to sec
ond on a wild throw. Worden sin
gled over second to drive in Fraga
and Newton grounded but to end
the inning.
Brilliant pitching by Newton in
the fourth quelled a Baylor upris
ing after giving up a single, hit
ting a batter and walking another
to load the bases.
The curveballing Newton took
only 12 pitches to strike out the
side with none out. Fred Marberry
fished for a high third strike, Bob
by Jones went down swinging and
Bobby Jack Oliver missed three
straight pitches to end the inning.
Munday iced the game away in
the fifth slamming Matt Miller’s

fastball 345-feet over the left field
fence after Gary Herrington had
reached first by error.
The burden of Newton’s clutch
pitching began to tell in the sixth,
and in the seventh with men on
first and second, Hullum, a fast
balling righthander from Baytown,
came on in relief.
Then Hullum was too tough for
the Bears, with only Davis reach
ing first, that on a scratch single
that bounded over Reed’s head at
third in the ninth.
Hullum breezed three strikes by
Mallett in the ninth, the second
time he has struck out the Baylor
centerfielder this year—and he’s
the only pitcher in the Southwest
Conference to perform the feat.

^Business and pleasure do mix...”
ROBERT H. WENTORF, JR., Ph.D., University of Wisconsin, 1951\
“Until I joined General Electric’s Research Labora
tory in 1951, I never realized science could be such
a challenge — or so much fun. My job involves re
search in physical chemistry — the investigation of
new ideas which can lead to new and better products
people can use. In a company of this size, I have the
unique advantage of having the tools and facilities I
need and the experience of others close at hand. And
in return, of course, I’m expected to apply myself to
the best of my ability in each new job. As I see it,
if a big company like General Electric invests time,
money and faith in my creative ability, and if I re
spond by creating, then we both benefit. To me, at
General Electric business and pleasure do mix.”/
The achievements of 31-year-old Robert Wentorf
speak well of his ability to make the most of the op
portunities offered at General Electric. He recently
created borazon — a completely new, diamond-hard
substance which promises far-reaching effect on in
dustrial processes and everyday living.
There are more than 27,000 college graduates at
General Electric. Each is provided the opportunity
for self-development in the hope that his creative
ability will bring forth new ideas. As General Electric
sees it, these new ideas, stemming from man’s native
curiosity, will lead to the development of countless
products as yet undreamed of for our nation’s defense^
industries, and homes.
A physical chemist at General Electric conducts studies of the
atomic structure of matter, and of the way atoms and molecules
interact under a wide variety of conditions.
