Porkers Tripped By Taylor’s Toe, 7-6 The Bn tin linn College Station (Brazos County), Texas Tn'e^Vw. November 5, 1957 PAGE 5 By GARY ROLLINS Governor Faubus, 32,000 fanati cal football fans and the supreme effort of the Arkansas Athletic De partment could not halt the mighty Texas Aggies, who eased by the unpredictable Porkers 7-6, in last Saturday’s contest at Fayetteville. The Cadets ruined the Fayette ville myth for the second time in a row, as they flaunted the “tra ditional” Homecoming Victory of the Razorbacks. The, largest crowd in Arkansas’ history gathered to watch Coach Paul Bryant’s maraud ing Maroon humble the aggressive Razorbacks. The Aggies, ranked No. 1 in the nation barely outdid Jac[k Mitchell’s crew statistically, but the all-important extra point pro vided the margin for the victory. Loyd Taylor pushed it through the uprights—for the 18th in a row this season. Both teams were hampered by injuries, but the Cadets furnished more proof of this than did the Porkers. Bobby Joe Conrad and Darrell Brown sat on the bench the entire game, and other injured Ag gies saw very limited action. The influenza attack on the Hogs was much shorter and less severe than it was believed to have been, as the Razorback line exhibited a very impressive display of team speed and hard blocking— not us ually characteristic of a flu-ridden squad. The Cadets threatened on their opening effort, moving the ball within scoring distance; only to have their hopes dampened by George Walker’s interception of Osborne’s aerial in the Razorback endzone. The Hogs exhibited a fine quick- kicking game, as they kept the Farmers tied up in their end of the field for the greater part of the first half. The Porkers scored in the first quarter, with four minutes re maining, on Quarterback Don Christian’s Sneak plunge through the middle. The play was disputed slightly, as the question arose whether or not Christian did pass the double stripe. The field judge prevailed in his solo judgment. The Aggies scored soon after on John Crow’s 11-yard dash around the right side with 4:20 left in the half. Taylor added the extra point —and that was the ball game, for all intents and purposes. They covered 74 yards in 11 plays.

(Not a Town Hall Attraction) exciting of the season for both teams. Emotions ran high and then dipped to low, only to rise again. The Razorbacks assaulted Aggie pay dirt without delay as the final quarter began, driving to the Ag gie five-yard stripe. A field-goal attempt by Freddy Akers was wide of the mark. Arkansas’ hopes sag ged. The Cadets couldn’t move the ball, and Osborne punted the Porkers back into Ozark territory. Once again, the ambitious Hogs moved to score. This time, Aggie end Don Smith broke the threat by covering Walker’s fumble on the Arkansas 48-yard line. The Farmers went on the at tack, and almost reached the “promised land.” They probably would have, if it hadn’t been for the opportunistic hands of Don Horton, who snagged Osborne’s runaway pass, and ran 64-yards up the sideline placing Arkansas in scoring position once again on the Aggie 27. The Hogs ran right end for three yards. Walker passed complete to Horton for a nine-yard advance. Horton moved the ball aroufnd the left ^ side for two, moving to the Army 17 yard-line. Walker wheel ed back to pass, spotted his re ceiver and threw—to Aggie half back John Crow on the goal line. The game ended with the Cadets in possession—their winning streak intact.

Only two Razorbacks were out with influenza. Mitchell said he expected both of the ailing players, first string tackle Richard Bennett and sec ond string end Richard Bell, to be ready for action tomorrow. Looking toward Saturday’s clash with Rice at Houston, Mitch ell said: “When Clemson beat Rice, it was the worst thing in the world that could happen to us. This will also be Rice’s homecoming game.” Rice coach Jess Neely gave his varsity the day off today hut kept his freshman team busy in a brisk workout.
