Somebody’s recruiting is paying
off.
Travis Reagan, All-State half
back on Wichita Falls’ AAAA fi
nalists last fall, has announced
he will attend A&M on an athletic
scholarship.
Coach Jim Myers announced
Reagan would sign upon comple
tion of baseball and track.
The 5-8, 170 speedster scored
176 points and picked up 1,750
yards rushjng and pass receiving
last season.
★ ★ ★
Since we’re on the subject of
recruiting, “a hats off” to the
Aggie “T” Association for the ef-
ficent job they did last weekend.
It seemed everywhere one looked,
some letterman was leading a
group of high school athletes
around the campus.
Saturday was filled with plenty
of sports entertainment for the
prospective athletes and both the
baseball and football games were
handled by members of the “T”
Association.
★ ★ ★
Kelly Chapman, the jumping
jack of the hardwoods, has decided
to put his springy ability to an
other use this spring.
At first Chapman was trying
out for the track team as a high
jumper, but bruised his heel in
first day of workouts. The same
thing that happened to him last
year.
After a little pondering, Chap
man has decided to try the broad
jump so he can jump from his toes
instead of heel.
★ ★ ★
Gary Herrington, freshman
baseball coach, deserves an apol
ogy.
At the beginning of the season,
it was announced Herrington would
II
serve as assistant unrtil Shelby
Metcalf finished his basketball
coaching duties, but some changes
have been made and it can now
be said, “there goes Cloach Her
rington.”
★ ★ *
The press box at Kyle Field
was filled with unusual visitors
Saturday night.
Top brass was represented by
some of the high ranking officers
who were down for Military Day,
a battery of wives and one TU
coed was present, numerous for
mer students and a sizable num
ber of Louisiana State Univer
sity’s coaching staff witnessed the
annual Maroon-White battle.
★ ★ ★
Coach Jim Myers must be a man
of efficiency. Saturday night
when he was commenting on how
many coaches would scout the
LSU spring practice tilt, Myers
said, “Why send more than one
coach? After all it’s only one
game.”
★ ★ ★
Chalk up one goof. Last week
Sports Slants said Barney Welch
needed some intramural softball
managers, but he doesn’t. . .he
needs softball umpires and needs
them quick.
★ ★ ★
Back in 1954 the Aggie basket
ball fans and team were shocked
when the two top starters, Rod
ney Pirtle and Don Moon, quit
after the Rice game.
The whereabouts of Moon isn’t
known, but Pirtle lias recently
been named freshman basketball
coach at Texas University.
After leaving A&M Pirtle went
to TU and following a hitch in the
Army, became sports editor of
The Daily Texan.
Everybody has had problems. . .

The Maroon’s first score came

three yards following Jon Few’s
24-yard opening kickoff return.
Halpin picked up most of the
yardage to the one where Powell
Berry, Maroon quarterback, car
ried the pigskin across the double
stripe. Mike Clark converted.
Following the second Maroon mons f or the Whites but they only

Huggins of the Maroons.
Rice Owls Blank Ags, 7-0;
Bearcat Contest Postponed
Rice used three pitchers and the
heavy hitting of Richard Kristi-
nik to shutout the Aggies, 7-0 Sat
urday in a practice baseball game.
Kristinik batted across four
runs with three consecutive doub
les, the last with the bases loaded
in the fourth inning.
Jerrol Springer, Jim Brook and
Paul Timme each worked three
frames for Del Morgan’s Owls
with Springer getting the win.
A&M could manage but five sing
les off this trio, two each off
Springer and Brock and one off
Timme.
Gary Priddy, first of three A&M
hurlers, gave up all seven runs,
five of them earned, and seven
hits, in four frames and was the
loser. David Pitcock and Jack
Roeder finished up and blanked
the Owls the final five innings.
The Owls jumped on Priddy for
three runs on three hits and an
error in the first inning. Bobby
Moy singled, took second on a sac
rifice and scored on Lee Raesen-
er’s double to right. Kristinik’s
first double scored Raesener and
the all-SWC third-sacker came in
when Byron Barber dropped Gary
West’s fly in left.
Rice scored four more in the
fourth on two hits, three walks
and a hit batsman. Kristinik’s
double cleared the sacks and he
later came home on a passed ball.
A&M’s only serious threat came
in the 2nd when they filled the
bases on a walk, single by J. B.
Carroll and a Walk to Don Davis.
Priddy struck out to end the in
ning.
Today’s game with Sam Hous
ton has been postponed because of
the weather and has been resched
uled for March 21.
If the weather will permit the
Cadets will travel to Seguin for a
rematch with the Texas Lutheran
Bulldogs.
As it was well established Sat
urday the big problem that faces
the Ags this year is lack of pitch
ers, however they may get some
help this week from Don Costlow
who is a transfer student from
Sam Houston. Costlow has ful
filled all of the eligibility require
ments with the exception of be
ing voted in unanimously by the
conference.
The Cadet hitting could stand
some improving since the team
average is only .209. Dink Patter
son, hitting .400 and Byron Bar
ber, with .333, are the only Ags
above the .300 mark.
Barring no further complica
tions, the Cadets will open South
west Conference play against the
Southern Methodist at 2 p.m. Sat
urday.
CHS Opens Baseball Today

The A&M Consolidated Tigers
open their 15 tilt baseball sched
ule in Huntsville today at 4 p.m.
when.the defending District 21-AA
champs battle the Hornets.
The Bengals have pulled down
three straight district and bi-dis
trict championships in AA while
The Aggies’ next outing will be racking up one Region III crown
in the same period. The pickins’
meet Rice and LSU in a triangular Seem mighty slim this year for
Coaches Edsel Jones and Ed Lo
gan.
Only four Tiger lettermen are
1 9 5 9 National Amateur Golf back from last year’s squad. Miss-
- iwg is 21 letters worth of experi
ence, including Edgar Feldman,
Aggie-turned-pro, who led the
Bengals to victory last season.
Outside practice has been held
to. a minimum with the weather
situation, giving Jones and Logan
headaches. The four lettermen
hit a composite total of .142 last
year and with four first year men
in the starting lineup, the Tiger
bat looks like a toothpick.
Returning for pitching duty is
215 pound junior Vic Clark who
worked 57 innings for an earned
run average of 0.86, fanning 85
last year. Logan has been groom
ing soph Johnny Williams for sec
ond line duty, while Mike Denison,
2-0 last year in pinch-pitch roles,
may see action.
Coach Jones has not yet named
a definite nine for today’s tilt but
tentatively Clark will be on the
mound, Jimbo Carroll behind the
plate, Ben Jackson or Jim Riggs
at first, Denison at second, Kelly
Parker at short, and soph Bill Ha
ley at third. Juniors Frank Hag-
ler or P. D. Gandy will be in left,
Williams in center and juniors
John Pedigo or Bob White in
right. Clark and Jackson, Deni
son, and Parker are the four let
termen while Pedigo and White
are squadmen.
Friday the Tigers try to get
rid of the Brenham Cubs in College
Station before meeting Huntsville
at home in a re-match Tuesday.

Fate must have been on the

championships at A&M Saturday,
March 19.
Preliminaries will begin at 1:30
p.m. with finals at 8 p.m. in the
Downs Natatorium on the A&M
campus, according to Art Adam
son, A&M coach and tournament
director.
Houston Bellaire will be one of
the strong favorites since it de
feated Lamar recently, but both
Houston schools and Highland
Park will be strong contenders for
the team trophy.
Other teams expected to enter
swimmers are Houston Reagan,
Odessa, Houston Austin, Austin of
Austin, Bryan, A&M Consolidated,
Wichita Falls, Killeen, Fort Worth
Paschal, Alamo Heights and Tex
as Military Institute of San An
tonio.
The Fish Rifle Team Intramural
Champion this year went to Co.
B-l as they fired a sizzling 464
points over Co. A-2 in the finals.
Co. A-2 was second with 421
points and Co. B-2 was third with
416 points.
The championship team was
composed of Harry H. Pendry,
Gervis M. Webb, James B. Briggs
and David W. Harwell.
The upperclassmen are wrap
ping up their class as Sq. 9 posted

Co. K-2 won over Sq. 17, 409-370.
Intramural softball will start
March 21 and all athletic officers
should have their individual sched
ules, according to Barney Welch,
intramural director. Welch also
pointed out umpires are badly
needed to officiate these games,
and those wishing to officiate
should contact him in DeWare
Field House.
Brice passed to Ralph Smith for
the two-pointer to end the ball
game with a 35-14 count.
Coach Jim Myers was well
pleased with the Aggies’ progress
during spring drills despite the
difficulty experienced with the
weather.
“I think we had a very fine
spring practice,” said Myers,
“we’ve got a long way to go, but
we’il be all right.’’
He said that Estes and John
Kent looked good in their running
game as well as Brice and Berry
in the quarterback spots. Myers
said he was particularly pleased
with Brice’s running ability.
Be well groomed
for success
That “like new” look we give
your clothes is sure to make the
right impressions whether
you’re on the job or on the
town.
