TCU Wogs Edge Victory Over Fish
When Last Minute Field Goal Fails
Victory-minded Fish failed to
make their last minute clincher pay
off last night when they missed a
26-yard field goal attemp that left
the score 14-13 in favor of the
TCU Wogs.
The Cadets cashed in on the
breaks early when Mike Davis par
tially blocked a punt on TCU’s
29-yard line. Ronnie Ledbetter took
the ball to the 26-yard stripe and
the quarter ended with the Fish
threatening on the TCU nine.
On the first play of the second
quarter, Ronnie Brice handed off
to Ledbetter and threw a key block

that broke Ledbetter loose around
left end and a touchdown. The
try for point by Keith Huggins
was blocked.
After receiving the kick-off the
Wogs quick-kicked on first down
for 68 yards.
The Fish tried some of the Wog
tactics and quick-kicked the ball
back to the TCU 46. The Wogs
fumbled and Stuart Beebe recov
ered for the Aggies on the 47-yard
line. The Fish couldn’t get going
and had to punt.
On second down the Wogs’ quick-
kick was partially block by the
Fish, but the play was crossed out
by offsetting penalties. Third
down brought Gray Mills passing
to Pat Fraley for 49-yards and a
first down, a few plays later Don-
ny Smith connected with Kirby
Richter in a 15-yard pass play that
covered the distance to pay dirt.
Jimmy McAteer converted to make
the score 7-6 in favor of the Wogs.
Eddie Doezal returned the TCU
kick-off to his own 33 but the Fish
were forced to punt again.
Bud Priddy returned the punt
for 19-yards and TCU started a
drive that was halted when the.
gun went off to end the first half.
The first part of the third quar
ter was nip and tuck for both
teams until the Fish finally got to
the Wog 24 and Huggins tried an
unsuccessful field goal.
A TCU fumble was recovered by
Huggins that sent the Cadets
marching toward the goal. Dolezal

over left tackle for the score. This
time Huggins made his kick good.
Late in the third quarter, the
Fish posed another scoring threat
when Andy Slupski interecepted a
Wog pass and returned it to the
TCU 19, with only minutes re
maining in the period.
Soon after the fourth quarter
started the Aggies tried the all
important field goal that could
have won the game. The first try
went through the up-rights, but
had to be called back because of
a penalty. The second attempt
failed.
The next time the Fish got the
ball, they drew 35-yards in penal
ties that forced them to punt to the
Wogs.
The Wogs took the punt and
gound out 65-yards for a touch
down by Jack Terrell, McAteer con
verted and the score was 14-13.
The only other scoring threat by
either team came when a Fish field
goal attempt from the 26-yard line
fell short.
Leading ground gainer for the
Fish was Sam Byer who had 47
yards in 14 carries. Jon Mason
boasted the best average with 5.1
yards per carry.
Fish Recover Fumble

during last .night’s game with the TCU Bud Priddy (23) and Kenneth Roberts (65)

Ags Favored Over Cougars;
Longhorns Get Sooner Nod
By BOB WEEKLEY
Battalion Sports Editor
White is black and black is white
when it comes to picking who is
going to come out on top in South
west Confei’ence football, but the
favored teams have to win some
time, so here are the predictions for
Saturday’s contests.
A&M-University of Houston—
The Cougars had to come from be
hind to beat Cincinnati last week,
but the Aggies surge is stronger,
so it’s A&M by six.
Arkansas-Baylor — The Razor-
backs’ 3-0 victory over TCU last
week moved them into a top con
tender’s spot. Baylor is picked to
finish last so its Arkansas by 14.
TCU-Texas Tech—The Red Raid
ers are undefeated this year while
TCU has lost two, but look at the
two teams they lost to. We have
to take TCU by 18 points in this
one.
SMU-Missouri — Meredith and
team finally start to click this
week, but the Tigers could prove
to he a rather reluctant kicking
post. The Mustangs by 10.
Texas-Oklahoma—Anything goes
in this game and usually does.
Don’t let the Sooners’ loss to
Northwestern mean anything, they
came back strong against Colo
rado. It’s Texas by two, but we
really don’t mean it.
Rice-Florida—It’s the undefeated
against the all-victorious in this
intersectional battle. Some of
Florida’s victims include Mississip
pi State, Virginia and Tulane,
while Rice was losing to the mighty
LSU Bengals and the equally tough
Duke Blue Devils. We have to
stick with Florida on this one,
but it’ll be close by one touchdown.
Texas Christian is the team most
likely to win while the Aggies and
Texas are likely candidates for an
upset. In either case it won’t be
a bad one.
Houston outweighs the Farmers
by 10 to 15 pounds per man, but
the Cadets should be used to giv
ing away weight by now after
Michigan State and Mississippi
Southern. Houston has a weak
pass defense so that could be the
Aggies’ saving grace.
Nobody knows how the Texas-
Oklahoma game could turn out in
that tradition studded battle. Best
bet is to toss a coin and then take
the team that loses.
