Rollie White, but didn’t cha;oge the first and second place spots in the Scmthwest Conference) race. Last night’s game left nothing to be desired for the 8,0001-plus fans who were on hand to make the biggest crowd in their home gym all season. , A .fine team effort by both squads was exhibited in the game that the Aggies comnpanded al most all the way. In the first half they stretched theSr lead to 12 points once and led by 11 in the the sepond half. These wide margins didn't seem to famish the Red Raiders as they came back both times to move into a winning position. Plenty Double Figures Scorring s in sizeable lots Was plentiful as three Tech players hit in the double figures while A&M had fowr in the same category. Harold Hudgens was big man for the night as he dropped im 24 points. He was followed by the top SWC scorer of the season, Del Ray Mounts with 23 points. With the exception of Carroll Broussard who had 20 points for A&M, the remainder of A&M’s high scorers were neck-and-neck. Big Loewis Qualls and Pat Stanley both had 16 points while Pat net ted 15. Tension Present Even though the Aggie margin grew rapidly a couple of times during the game, it dwindled just as fast and tension was predom inant among fans, coaches, offi cials and players. Of course the yelling of A&M’s students is enough to shake most anything or anybody. The coaches came out of their chairs; the refs got a little mixed up in a couple of instances; and the fans got riled. The tightness of the game even seemed to affect the younger mem bers of the audience. After the Aggies, Air Force Meet A rivalry that promises to grow into national prominence between A&M and Air Force Academy var sity pistol teams will be renewed Friday as the two teams meet in Colorado Springs, Colo, for shoul- der-to-shoulder firing. The series began last year and continued with a match the past semester. The Aggie teams have triumphed in both instances. game a little “cotton headed” boy was seen resting his head on the bleachers. When asked what his trouble was, he replied, “I have a headache.’’ After looking up, the little guy was quickly identi fied as one of the most loyal Aggie supporters, the oldest son of Aggie Coach Bob Rogers. Texas Tech barely outshot A&M from the floor as they hit 42 per cent compared to 41.3 for the hosts. The most decisive figures in the statistical columns was A&M’s rebounding edge. The Ca dets collected 60 for night com pared to 41 for Tech. Broussard had 13 while Qualls and Don Stan ley netted 10 each. Hudgens was the top man for Tech with 11. Coach Polk Robison of Tech had nothing /but the highest praise for seven-foot Lewis Qualls. Robison said that Qualls was probably the biggest individual factor in A&M’s win, and added, “He had more en durance and hustle than he has ever had before.” It was the first time that Qualls has started this season.
