The Aggies periced up yes
terday and went through a
spirited outdoor workt. it in
preparation for Saturday's
Southwest Conference game
with SMU’s upset-minded Mus
tangs at 8 p. m. on Kyle Field.
“I was well pleased and thought
we had a good workout today,” said
Coach Paul Bryant. “I thought we
moved quicker than at any time
all year. I hope it wasn’t my
imagination.”
The workout lasted an hour and
a half and included kicking, rush
ing of the passer, and firing* out
on offense and defense. The drills
were not contact.
A very light workout is planned
for Thursday.
Business manager Pat Dial an
nounced yesterday that there were
plenty of tickets left for the game.
SMU bri ngs a team of “come-
from - behind” nature here with
a terrific last half rally almost
bringing victory against Kice in
a 27-21 thriller and a rally in
the Texas game which won for
them.
Trailing 6-0 in the second quarter
with only 12 yards to their credit,
the Mustangs took Texas’ kickoff,
marched 68 yards to score and tie
the game, and win 19-12.
Texas in the first period had
dominated the game, rolling up 80
yards and getting inside the SMU
25 four times. Then one of the
craftiest quarterback operators in
the Southwest Conference, Don
Meredith, took over.
He passed seven yards to Ray
Masters for. the first TD, 12 yards
to Wayne Slankard for the second
SMU TD in the third quarter and
then calmly kicked the extra point
leftfooted for the lead the Must
angs fteveFigave up.
Meredith, 6-3 and 186 pounds,
as one Houston writer wrote “ap
proaches his job with casualness
approaching insolence.”
He gained 72 on 10 tries and
passed nine times, with six com
plete for 54 yards.
Voted the most- valuable fresh
man player in the SWC last year,
Meredith gave statistical proof
why he was best. In five games
he completed 43 of 78 passes for
555 yards. That’s 111 yards a game
passing.

m HIGHLIGHTS
Univ. of Texas
James Shillingburg and Larry
Stephens were promoted back to
the alternate unit for Texas today
after responding to demotions ear
lier in the week.
Stephens returned to No. 2 right
end and Shillingburg to No. 2
right guard. Shillingburg, a start
er against Rice, has been engaged
in a season-long battle with Robert
E. Lee for the right guard spot.
Southern Methodist U.
The Southern Methodist Univer
sity Mustangs slipped through a
workout today in the mud and wa
ter of an Ownby Staduim practice
field—their first outdoor drill this
week.
Heavy rains Monday and Tues
day forced pi'eparations for Satur
day’s game with Texas A&M to
be held indoors.
Coach Bill Meek has converted
Billy Dunn, who started as quar
terback in the first four games
of the season, into an end. He
worked today at left end with
the third unit.
Univ. of Arkansas
End Richard Bell rejoined the
University of Arkansas football
squad today and, for the first time
in two weeks, the Razorbacks prac
ticed without any influenza ab
sences.
The squad has not had a crip
pling injury all season, but Coach
Jack Mitchell said today that start
ing halfback Donnie Stone’s ailing
back has shown no improvement
and Stone will probably miss Sat
urday’s game with Rice at Hous
ton.
Texas Christian Univ.
No. 2 fullback Jack Spikes
sprained an ankle today as Texas
Christian took to the drill field for
its first contact work of the week.
Trainer Elmer Brown expressed
confidence that Spikes, top sub
for halfback Buddy Dike, would
be recovered in time for the Texas
game at Austin Nov. IS.
The Frogs are idle this week.
Rice Institute
The Rice Owls held a long scrim
mage against freshmen today
while preparing for renewal of
their Southwest Conference cam
paign here Saturday against Ar
kansas.
“A very satisfactory workout,”
said Coach Jess Neely after seeing
each of his first three units get
about 10 minutes of contact work
on both offense and defense.
Baylor Univ.
The Baylor Bears made up for
lost practice time today with a
long drill which Coach Sam Boyd
labeled one of the finest workouts
this season.
