“Serving Texas Aggies’
More than 10,000 eyes were glu
ed on a basketball circling’ crazily
on the rim of the basket Satur
day night before the stillness which
had persisted in White Coliseum
for a few long seconds was shat
tered by two very audible sounds.
One was the harsh buzzer blar
ing above the red lights on the
scoreboard, denoting that the game
was over.
The other was the sudden out
burst of the partisan A&M crowd
as the ball plunked through the
net after the buzzer sounded, giv
ing Arkansas a 72-71 triumph
over the Aggies.
Eight seconds earlier A&M’s
Jack Collier had dumped his- lone
field goal of the night into the bas
ket and pulled the crowd to its
feet with the points that placed
the Farmers one mark ahead of
Ag Bowling Team
Bumps Mustangs
The Aggie bowling team stayed
undefeated by downing the SMU
keglers Saturday afternoon in the
Memorial Student Center bowling
lanes, 4,531-4,523 in a 5-game
match. The Cadet second team de
feated the Mustang second squad,
4,248-4,181, in an earlier match.
The Ponies, undefeated until this
match, provided the high point
man in the main event in Roy
Crow who had a high |?hme of 240
and high average of 204. Bob
Brown of the Ags had second game
and average with 229 and 190. Don
Jones was second high average for
the Farmers with 184.
A&M almost made a clean sweep
of the day when their doubles
teams of Jones and Larry Dantz-
ler swept their match as did Brown
and Floyd Hardiman.
Next in line for the Cadets is
the National Intercollegiate Bowl
ing Tournament scheduled to be
held on the A&M campus. Last
season’s tournament champ was
Oklahoma State University whom
the Aggies defeated earlier this
year.
the determined Razorbacks.
Harry Thompson brought the
ball back onto the court for Arkan
sas as over 5,000 fans held their
breath and watched the seconds
tick away on the great clock high
above the middle of the court.
Four seconds remained in the
game as Thompson took aim on
the basket and let go a long jump
shot that hit the rim and ricochet
ed high into the air. It looked like
A&M had another ball game but
the Razorbacks’ Jay Carpenter
leaped high and tipped the ball
back towards the basket.
Then after 'making like a Sput
nik for brief seconds it dropped
from its orbit into the basket. The
referees ruled that the ball was in
the air before the buzzer sounded,
giving the Hogs two points and
the victory.
At the start of the game it look
ed like the Aggies would run wild.
Wilmer Cox hit his first five tries
from the side and the Aggies, who
led for the first 36 minutes of
play, scored in flourishes, leading
the visitors by as many as 11
points shortly after intermission.
But the taller Razorbacks fought
back and knotted the count with
4:01 remaining.
After six quick points on the
hook shots of sophomore Pat Fos
ter, the Arkansas squad held a 68-
64 lead. Thompson tipped one in
for the Hogs to make it 70-66 be
fore a layup and a free toss by
the Aggies’ Neil Swisher narrow
ed the gap to one point.
Then came the four seconds of
defeat for the Cadets.
All in all, the game was a re
peat of one played in Arkansas in
January but this time the shoe
was on the other foot. In that
hair-raiser, the Aggies went ahead
63-62 with 10 seconds left and
guarded their lead for the win.
The loss dropped the Aggies into
a tie with Arkansas in fifth place,
both with 5-6 conference marks.
The Razorbacks hit 35 per cent
of their shots in the first half and
then steadied to end up with a
43.8 percentage from the floor.
A&M hit 43.7 for the game.
