Page 4 .College Station, Texas Wednesday, February 8, 19fil THE BATTALION Tech, SMU, TCU Victors; Ohio State Still No. 1 By The Associated Press FAYETTEVILLE—Texas Tech clung to the Southwest Conference basketball lead Tuesday night, overcoming a 14-point deficit in the last 12 minutes and beating Arkansas, 72-GO, in a vital league game. The Eazorbacks could have pull ed into a tie for the lead by beat ing the Red Raiders, and until the game’s final stages it looked as if they would do just that. It was the Razorbacks’ first loss on their home court this season. Arkansas grabbed a 41-38 half time lead and moved steadily away from the Raiders in the early stages of the second period. With the Hogs leading by 14 points, Tech went into a zone defense and held Arkansas to two field goals in the middle 10 minutes of the second half while the Raiders surged. Harold Hudgens, the Raiders’ G19 center, scored 25 points and AGGIES NEXT SEMESTERS BOOK LIST IS NOW AVAILABLE AT £oupx)t<l 1 grabbed 12 rebounds in leading Tech to its sixth conference vic tory against one loss. Arkansas was falling to its third defeat against four triumphs. Jerry Carlton led the Rozarbacks in scoring with 18 points. Clyde Rhoden hit 17 and Pat Foster scored 14. WACO—Texas Christian’s Horned Frogs won their second game of the Southwest Conference basketball race Tuesday night to keep Baylor pinned in the cellar with an 85-77 victory before 1,800 shivering fans. The Frogs were as hot as the weather was cold, hitting 56 per cent of their shots from the floor in the first half and 64 per cent in the second for an overall 59. The Bears had a respectable 41 per cent of their own and out- goaled TCU from the floor 30-29. But the Frogs used a similarly hot touch from the foul line to stay on top all the way. Four Frogs hit in double figures with Alton Adams topping with 18. Johnny Fowler had 16, Phil Reynolds 15 and Don Rosick 11. Five of the Bears also hit in double figures. Bert McLain got 18 points, Harold Henson 13, Jerry Spence 12 and Tom Garrison 11 and John West 10. DALLAS—Southern Methodist roared from behind in the last eight minutes Tuesday night to topple Texas, 70-63, and seriously damage the chances of the defend ing Southwest Conference basket ball champions. A shift in defenses at inter mission salted away this one for Southern Methodist and made the conference record of the two teams 4-3. Southern Methodist used a zone defense in the first half and Tex as, led by A1 Almanza, Donnie Las- iter, and Jimmy Brown, riddled it with ease, hitting from the out side, anywhere and everywhere. At the half Texas led 38 : 29. But SMU came out at the half with a man-to-man defense and the Methodists also started to hit from the field. ★ Ohio State, for the eighth straight week, garnered all the first-place votes Tuesday in the weekly Associated Press poll to determine the No. 1 team in the country. In voting on games through Sat urday, Feb. 4, Ohio State grabbed all 36 ballots of the sports editors and sportscasters who voted from coast to coast. 1. Ohio State (36) (16-0) 360 2.

Once again Bennie Lennox was high scorer for the Fish and also was top man for the game with 25 points. For the Owlets, Larry Phillips hooped the most for top honors with 23 points. The Fish took an early lead and were never overtaken although tied once. With 7:42 left in the game, the Fish led by their largest margin, 60-51, but the Owlets closed fast and with only three minutes left the score was 70-66, Fish. Another second was made in the game last night as four of the five starters for the Fish scored in double figures. Following Len nox, was Bill Robinette with 15 points, Lynn Merritt with 13, and Dave Johnson with 12. Rice’s height was a major factor in the Owlets’ ability to stay close to the Fish. They out-rebounded the Fish, 56-49. Time and time again, the Owlets’ Phillips and Kendall Rhine, 6-5 and 6-9 re spectively, cashed in on tip-in op portunities. In all, Rice made six tip-ins which is good for any team. As the final minutes were tick ing off, Lennox put on a fabulous dribbling exhibition with Owlets falling all over the floor in a vain attempt to steal the ball.
