Nine Hosts Sam Houston
Return Match Saturday
Cadets Seek Revenge Win
Over Powerhouse ’Kats
By BOB WEEKLEY
Coach Beau Bell’s Aggie nine
goes up against powerful Sam
Houston State Saturday afternoon
in Kyle Field in a revenge match
after the Farmers dropped the
first game of their series, 3-2, in
a ten-inning thriller.
Donnie Hullum, righthander from
Baytown, will start on the mound
for the Cadets. The 6-0 junior has
thrown six innings of ball this sea
son, given up five hits, two walks
and one run.
Southpaw Toby Newton, co-cap-
tain from Galveston, will be work
ing in the bullpen for the Aggies.
Other Ag hurlers slated for pos
sible relief work are Percy Sander
son of Nederland and Bo Para-
dowski of Bryan.
Both Aggie decisions belong to
Newton. Against Houston he
pitched three innings of hitless ball
and struck out six, but Newton’s
control failed him against the Beai*-
kats. He gave up only one hit but
walked seven and hit one batter.
Co-Captain Jim Smotherman is
leading the Aggies in the batting
department with a .500 average.
He has four hits, three of them
doubles, and has batted in three
runs. All-SWC Catcher Gary Her
rington follows him with two hits,
both doubles, and a .400 average.
The stocky junior has two RBIs.
Centerfielder Ed Dudley has three
hits and is batting .375.
The Aggies are expected to field
the same starting lineup that has
played the last two games, with the
possible exception of left field.
Wendell Reed, all-conference third
baseman last year, hasn’t been hit
ting so far this season and J. B.
Carroll, a College Station product,
may start if he has fully recovered
from a knee injury by game time.
Probable starting lineup and bat
ting order for the Aggies could
look like this: Reed or Carroll in
left field; Bill Houchin, first base;
Herrington, catcher; Smotherman,
right field; Dudley, centerfield;
Dink Patterson, second base; Ralph
Plumlee, shortstop; Wayne Balke,
third base and Hullum, pitcher.
The sophomore infield threesome
of Plumlee, Patterson and Houchin
turned in two double plays against
the Bearkats, making the Aggies’
infield play look like the most im
proved part of the Aggie team.

Ed Dudley, junior outfielder from Pampa, hits the dirt
instead of the ball in this scene here against the University
of Houston. The pitch wasn’t too close—Ed just swung a
little too hard. He’s batting a lusty .375, however, and
doesn’t “hit the ground” too often.
