Aggies Are Known
To Help Their Own
Any Aggie can make an emer
gency loan from Lou without any
security or interest. At the present
Lou has over $2,000.00 out'in loans,
many of which were made early
in the semester and are now past
due. If you have borrowed from
Lou and can’t repay him- now, just
keep on trading with Lou hut drop
by and tell him when you can re
pay him.
Since Lou can’t make any more
loans until some loans are repaid,
try to help your buddies by repay
ing Lou now if you can.
Lou appreciates the opportunity
to help Aggies; will you help him
to help your buddies ?

basketball team—for the second
time within the period of one short
week.
This past Saturday afternoon, be
fore a partisan crowd of 5,307 bas
ketball fans and a Midwest regional
television audience, Aggie Coach
Bobby Rogers’ unknown Cadets
came from behind in the fourth
quarter with nine straight points
to overcome a five-point deficit of
60-55, and post the second win of
their Eastern tour, 72-69.
The Cadets were anything but
“lady-like” however, as they
showed the Big Ten powerhouse the
value of being raised on sagebrush
and sand.
Forty-three fouls were called
during the contest, with the rough-
house Aggies taking the call on 23
occasions.
Wayne Lawrence, 6-9 center from
Pawcatuck, Conn, was the game’s
leading scorer with 17 points. How
ever, there were four other 1 Cadets
in the double scoring column.
Buckeye Ken Sidle was second
highest with 16 points. Neil Swish
er scored 13 to become runner-up
to Lawrence for the Aggies.
Ohio State gave the ball away
on 19 occasions, but managed to
control the backboards with some
degree of proficiency. Their big
three, Frank Howard, Larry Hus
ton and Sidle cleaned 31 of the 41
bounce-backs off the boards. The
Aggies lost the ball but three times.
The lead changed hands several
times throughout the game with
the Buckeyes holding a 36-35 edge
at the half. The Aggies scored
first but OSU took the lead and
relinquished it only twice during
the first half. Midway in the second
quarter, the Buckeyes led by nine
points, at 23-14.
With 7:48 remaining in the
fourth quarter, the Farmers over
came a five-point deficit with
