The win was the second of the year against one defeat for Tex as in league play and their 8th in nine games for the season. A&M stands 1-3 and 4-7.

CHS Tigers Try Crockett Tonight A&M Consolidated’s luckless Tigers travel to Crockett tonight in an attempt to pick up their third win of the season. Game time is 7:30 p.m. as the Bengals hope to break their string of five consecu tive setbacks. The Tigers now hold a 2-6 sea son record after dropping success ive tilts to Port Arthur, Conroe, Beaumont, Brenham and a 19-14 slugfest to the Heame Eagles on Friday. Coach Edsel Jones will go with his usual starting nine of Vic Clark on the mound, Les Palmer behind the mask, Ben Jackson on first, Russell Welch at second, Bill Haley on third and Kelly Parker at short. Frank Hagler, Johnny Williams and John Pedigo or P. D. Gandy will compose the outfield. Friday’s contest was a free-for- all as the Eagles racked up 13 runs in sending 18 men to the plate in a big second frame to give them enough insurance for the victory. The Tigers rallied for ten runs in the final two innings to cut the score to the final count, but the game was halted with two out in the seventh because of darkness. Williams led the hitting parade With a double and a triple and five RBI's. Tuesday finds the Tigers in Hearne for a rematch while next Friday the Bengals invade the Taylor Ducks for a night ball game. The score was tied at 1-all, both runs being unearned, when the Longhorn rightfielder connected. Sam Rosson had walked and took second un a single by Pat Rigby prior to the four-bagger. The Longhorns got another tally in the 9th on McDonald’s double and a sacrifice fly by Bart Shirley. The Aggies scored their un earned tally in the fifth. Joe Burt went to second on an error by Lew Brazelton, took third on a balk and scored on Billy Houch- in’s sacrifice fly. Texas tied it up in the sixth on another unearned run.

Meet, World Records Fall In 33rd Annual TU Relays AUSTIN (A 5 )—Powerful Bill Nieder, the Army officer from Kansas who’s striving for another Olympic berth, Saturday hurled the shot farther than any other man in history, 65 feet 7 inches. His great throw, which bettered the world record by 2 feet 5 inches, highlighted a Texas Relays through high winds and a misting rain. The closing was rather tame compared with the opening session in which five records were set and one tied. One Record Falls Only one record, in the pole vault, was set in the Relays proper Saturday, and the closing regular program was featured by the de feat of Bobby Morrow, Olympic sprint champion, in the 200 me ters. Ted Woods, a Colorado soph omore, whipped Morrow. J. D. Martin of Oklahoma set the lone record—a vault of 14 feet 10% inches—and it won him the award as outstanding athlete of the Relays. The team award went to Houston which won two relays. Morrow’s Defeat Surprising The defeat of Morrow was a dis tinct surprise. He had won the 100 meters in 10.6 Friday night, running into the wind, and was expected to repeat Saturday in the 20 meters around a curve—the kind of a race he likes. But Woods, Big Eight Conference indoor quarter- mile champion, led all the way in 21.0 while Morrow finished third, and Jimmy Weaver, former North Texas State star, was second. Southern Shines Eddie Southern, the Olympics second-place 400-meter hurdles finisher who did this event in 51.0 Friday night, was fourth in the 200 meters. Ray Cunningham of Texas tied the oldest record in the books— the 13.9 120-yard high hurdles rec ord set by Fred Wolcott of Rice in 1939—but didn’t get credit for it. He was helped by the wind and no record was recognized. The outstanding athlete of the meet next to Martin was John Macy of Houston, who bettered the national collegiate record for 5,000 meters. Friday night with 14:25.0, and ran a leg on the winning 4- mile relay team Saturday. Martin’s vault was 2y 2 inches better than, the Texas Relays rec ord of 14 feet 8% inches, set by Jim Graham of Oklahoma State in 1959. The Texas Relays do not award points but an official check of the eligible events showed Kansas had led with 53 points with Texas sec ond with 42.4 and Houston next with 41. ior, who tied Baylor and won over Arkansas; Johnny Johnson, Har lingen sophomore, who lost to Baylor and won over Arkansas; John Lively, Jr., Athens sopho more, who won both of his Baylor and Arkansas matches and A1 Jones, Harlingen senior, who won his Baylor match but lost to Ar kansas. In two-ball play, Johnson and Martindale and the Jones-Lively combination lost their Baylor matches while against Arkansas, Martindale and Lively won but Jones and Johnson lost. The other team members who have not played in the SWC as yet are Dickie Duble, Galveston soph omore and Jim Fetters, Port Ar thur Soph. Sd&tfitoofi the pen that’s worth writing home about!
