After being shut out 5-0 in the
Southern Methodist series opener
in Dallas Friday, the Texas Aggies
bounced back to squeak by the Po
nies in the Saturday game, 4-3.
The defeat was the second suf
fered by Coach Beau Bell’s Aggies
as compared to seven victories.
In the Friday game, a former
grid star, Carl Schlemeyer, turned
on the heat for the Ponies and lim
ited A&M to four hits, while strik
ing out nine.

Are You A True Aggie?
People all over the country know
of Texas A&M and its rich tra
ditions. Many also know of the
quality of education one receives
at this great institution and the
kind of men, real men, that it turns
out.
Although many have heard what
it means to be an Aggie, only
Aggies know the real meaning of
the woi’d “Aggie” and feel the im
pact of Aggieland’s great tradi
tions. We, the students and former
students, take great pride in our
school. We are proud that we have
the privilege of being an Aggie.
Army, as we go home for the
holidays let’s take this opportunity
to tell the top boys that A&M
is the top school by any standard.
Tell them what it means to be a
Fightin’ Texas Aggie and to be a
part of the greatest fraternity on
earth.

The Aggie pitching looked “al
most” as good, with Baytown hurl-
er Donnie Hullum whiffing eight
and yielding the same number of
hits—but the tale was told on free
passes to first base. Schlemeyer
passed out four, while Hullum is
sued six. Three of Hullum’s walks
came in the noisy SMU third stan
za which found three runs crossing
the dish.
A&M’s fabled hitting did not
make the scheduled appearance
however, as leftfielder Lloyd Stone
tallied half of the base knocks for
A&M with two—one of them a
triple—and pinch hitter Don Chase
and shortstop Ralph Plumlee added
singles.
In the ninth inning, the Cadets
filled the bags after two were out
on an error, a single by Chase and
a walk, but an infield force play
ruined the rally and decided the
game.
This time it was the Aggies who
drew first blood as they pushed
across the winning margin in the
initial inning. First sacker Bill
Houchin walked to first base, ad
vanced to second on an error and
then scored on Gary Herrington’s
double.
Toby Newton was credited with
the win, although he had to ride
some very rough weather in ob
taining the victory. He gave up
eight hits, sti’uck out 11 and walked
seven.
In the fifth inning, the Cadets
rallied once again to the tune of
three runs on two walks, two hit
batsmen, a passed ball, a wild pitch,:
a double steal and two singles.
On the receiving end of the ma
jority of these blunders was George
Moore, who received credit for the
loss. Reliefer Marvin King came
to his rescue in this weird fifth
frame with two out and retired the
Aggies with one infield hit.

After yielding the conference
lead to Texas and Southern Meth
odist for a brief spell Friday night,
A&M carpe back Saturday after
noon to trip up the Ponies and
drop them back into a tie for sec
ond with A&M. The Longhorns
now are at the top of the heap with
a 4-0 mark.
After posting their third straight
win in a Friday game with John
Tarleton Junior College, the Ag
gie Fish dropped their first con
test of the season to Dallas Uni
versity Saturday by the score of
2-1.
A&M took the lead in the first
inning, racking up two runs, but
Tarleton held the Fish scoreless in
the second and third innings while
they racked up single runs in both
frames.
After a lone Aggie tally in the
last of the third, neither team
scored until the big sixth inning.
The visitors started the inning
with a run, but the Fish came back
to cross four big runs over the
plate, ending the scoring.
Randy Wortham, Fish catcher,
led the batting with three hits in
four trips, including one double.
Left fielder Byron Barber hit one
over the leftfield fence in account
ing for two of the Aggie hits.
Larry Ayers went the distance
for the Aggies, giving up five hits
in the nine-inning battle, and hold
ing Tarleton to only two earned
runs. He walked four men and
struck out eight.
Byron Barber started off the
Farmer half of the first inning
with an infield hit. He stole sec
ond and scored on a long single
by Wortham, who went to second
on the throw home. Wortham took
third on an infield hit by Van
Winkle and scored on an error by
the Tarleton third baseman.
Sixth inning action started when
first baseman Dick Hickerson took
two bases on an error by the short
stop. Bobby Cloud lifted a long
single to right to score Hickerson,
and was then forced out at sec
ond by the shortstop, while Kettler
gained first base. He moved to
second on a passed ball and scored
on a single by Early Davis. Bar
ber then knocked his homer scor
ing Davis ahead of him.
On Saturday the Aggies drop
ped a close one to Dallas Univer
sity 2-1 in a nine-inning game at
Kyle Field.
The Cadets scored first in the
bottom of the opening frame when
Don Davis, shortstop, raced in for
the only Aggie run. The Fish
threatened in the second and third
innings, leaving men on third in
both frames.
Dallas U’s first run came in the
third when Pat Shine walked and
reached second on a fielder’s choice.
He got a free ride the rest of the
way as Aggie pitcher Joe Thomp
son walked two in succession.
The game was a long affair, last
ing three hours, and Newton found
himself in trouble time and time
again in the final innings. Five
Ponies were stranded on the base-
paths as Newton clung to the one-
run margin.
The Aggies travel to Fort Worth
this afternoon to engage Texas
Christian in a solo game series.
During the Easter holidays, the
Aggies meet Brook Medics twice
in San Antonio and contest Rice at
Houston on April 8. The next
home game is against hard-hitting
Texas on Saturday, April 12.

NCAA Rules Fencers 12th
After a brief look at the results
of the NCAA fencing tourney held
recently in Lubbock, the NCAA
has ruled that Texas A&M finish
ed twelfth in competition while
Texas Tech was awarded thirteenth
by virtue of the ‘touch’ system.
Fewer touches were scored
against A&M than Tech, and with
this taken into consideration, the
Aggies, coached by Russ Wieder,
were proclaimed holders of twelfth
place in the nation.
There were 216 touches scored
against A&M as compared to 223
for the Red Raiders. The Aggies
also were credited with 189
touches, with Tech .scoring 179.
With this revision in the final
standings, A&M now holds the dis
tinction of being the best rated
Southwest Conference team in
fencing competition. Previously,
Tech had placed 16th.
