* \> L 4 > 4 Ag Aerial Attack Falls Short; Hogs Win 21-8 The Arkansas Razorbacks roar ed down from the hills Saturday night to convince the Aggies on Kyle Field by a 21-8 mark that a speedy running game is better than a passing attack when it comes to making touchdowns. Arkansas made only 10 yards via the aerial yl’oute, but racked up 248 yards on the ground to win going away. The Cadets relied on the passing arms of tailbacks Charley Milstead and Ed Dudley, but their air game proved impot ent time after time in the final 10 yards needed for a touchdown. Opportunity knocked on the door for the Hogs in the opening min utes of the game when wingback Randy Sims fumbled away the ball on the Ag 10. The game was scarcely three minutes old when the visitors scored on Jim Moore’s run around left end. Halfback Don Horton kicked the extra point to make the score 7-0. A&M struck back after guard Allen Goehring x-ecovered a fumble on his own 26. Milstead unlimber ed his throwing arm and quickly moved the Cadets downfield to the Arkansas 16 before the Razor- backs held and forced Milstead to try a field goal. The attempt was wide and Arkansas took over on its own 20. The Aggies finally seoi’ed in the fading minutes of the half after Dudley had taken over the tail backing choi’es. The march cover ed 65 yards, capped by Dudley crashing over from the 2 to score. He passed to end Ralph Smith for I did not whistle at her.

Ai’kansas’ Joe Alberty opened up the third quarter by taking the kickoff 77 yards to the Farmer’s 16 yard line. Jim Mooty scored for Arkansas, and passed to Billy Tranum to make the score 15-8. Milstead took charge of the Ag gies again and moved the team down to the Razorback 15 befox-e Alberty picked one of his passes out of the air and ended the threat. Alberty was again the Hogs' big gun in their final drive, racing the 22 yai’ds to the Aggie 11. Several plays later he dived over from the one to put the Razorbacks far out front, 21-8. The Aggies took to the air with desperation passes the last quar ter, but Ai'kansas defensed it with a three-man line to stop each new thi’ust and protect its lead.

Oliver is I'eplacing Tri-Captain Dick Gay, who was disabled for the season against the Razorbacks. Gay, a senior, underwent surgery in Houston yesterday morning for torn ligaments in his knee. Oliver started the season at cen ter, playing that position on the first team until he was sidelined by injuries. He has the necessary speed and blocking ability for the spot, and was a standout as line backer before his injury. Other shifts in the lineup came when Don Smith suited out in pads for the first time since the Baylor game. He was eaidier thought lost for the season. The senior is cur rently running end on the No. 2 team behind his sophomore broth er, Ralph, and replaces Ti’avis Nev- ill who will miss Saturday’s game with Southei’n Methodist Univer sity due to a knee injury.
