“In Its 50th Year of Serving Texas Aggies”
The Aggies worked out inside
White Coliseum Monday in sweat
clothes, readying themselves for
an.'ef'fp'f'S’tr-stopping the South
west Conference’s finest offensive
team, the Rice Owls.
“I was very much impressed
with Rice on television Saturday,”
said Coach Paul Bryant. “They
had to take six kicks by Arkansas
inside the 15 yard line, five of
those within the 10-yard line and
they still won. That makes their
victory much more impressive.”
A review of A&M-SMU game
movies only confirmed the out
standing performance of John
Crow but suggested that perhaps
writers had not had enough to say
about the tremendous game turned
in by tackle Charley Krueger.
“I don’t see how a tackle can
play any better than Charley did,”
said Bryant after seeing the
movies. His recovery of Charley
Jackson’s fumble on Don Mere
dith’s pitchout halted an SMU
drive that had carried for 56
yards on 12 plays to the A&M 26.
Tackle Ken Beck, ,end Bobby
Marks and quarterback Roddy Os
borne all played great games ac
cording to grades posted from the
movies.
Beck’s brilliant defensive work,
when the Mustangs were a yard
away from a fourth quarter score
and a tie game or the lead, was
one of the great saves in the
game, ranking along with Crow’s
interceptions and Krueger’s fumble
recovery. ‘
Meredith, hitting the line and
trying to buck over for the score 1
had massive Beck tear the ball
from his arms and recover at the
one on fourth down.
Both fullback Gordon LeBoeuf
and guard Carl Luna played their
best games of the season. Guard
Allen Goehring also played well.
The Aggies with a victory Satur
day in Houston could sew up the
SWC championship for a second
year in a row but a Rice win would
virtually put them in the same
spot. Rice has lost only once in
conference and by winning its next
three games could become the
champion.

It Pays To Trade With Lou
Considering the way the Mustangs from Southern Meth-
dist were tamed last Saturday night by a 19-6 score, the
Aggie-SMU game should have been played in the Aggie
Rodeo Arena instead of Kyle Field.
The Ponies that were “broken,” however” proved to be
of the same mettle as former Mustang greats. In fact, since
the days of Kyle Rote and “Flingin’ Fred” Benners, the
hard-to-defend spread formation had seen very limited
action.
It was the first time this season the Ponies had deviated
from their conventional split-T type of attack.
An arrogant sophomore by the name of Don Meredith
^wrote his name in the record
books as the man to watch in
the years to come as he ran
and threw with the skill of
a senior signal-caller. Without
Meredith running from the quar
terback slot, the Ponies seemed to
retreat and hope for the best.
Last year’s game in Dallas was
very similar to this one, in every
point except the score. The Ponies
boasted but one defeat and were
in contention for conference hon
ors-—up to the Aggie game. As of
last Saturday night, Bill Meek’s
Mustangs had lost but one contest
in conference play.

Old Taylor and Chaser
Loyd Taylor, 165 : pounds of 100-proof Aggie, leads two
SMU “chasers” a merry chase before they succeeded in
downing him. SMU’s “White Horse” couldn’t contend with
“Old Crow and Old Taylor” and the Cadets won, 19-6.
In the third-quarter the Aggies
staged a march for pay dirt that
will long be remembered. Tackle
Charley Krueger began the series
by recovering Charley Jackson’s
fumble on the Aggie 26-yard line.
Crow ripped off seven yards in
two carries.
In just 14 plays, the Farmers
moved into the Methodist end zone,
pulling into the lead for the sec
ond time in the game. John Crow
furnished the Aggies with the im
petus, gaining- 51 yards in nine car
ries. He plunged over from the
two-yard line with 1:20 remaining.
