TMnclads Have Fine Outing
But Lose To ‘Horns & U of H’
The Aggie thinclads, competing
in their first outdoor track meet
of the season, made a fine show
ing in Austin last weekend before
going down to Texas and Houston
in a triangular meet.
Texas compiled 75 points to 56
for Houston, the defending cham
pions, and the Aggies wrapped up
39 points.
The only two double winners in
the meet were from Texas—Ralph
Alspaugh, in the sprints, and Ray
Cunningham, in the hurdles.
Gale McDaniel was the only Ag
gie to place in the top position as
he won in the pole vault with a
jump of 12-3. James Daniel tied
for first in the high jump with
Jerry Bain of Texas. They both
cleared 6-%.
The Aggie sprint relay team,
running without their ace anchor
man, Ed Williams, broke the A&M
school record in the 440-yard re
lay. They placed second to Hous
ton and were 1/10 of a second
under the school mark with a
clocking of 41.6. Houston’s win
ning time was 41.4.
Curt Roberts, Eugene Dornak,
Bob Clark and George Tedford
made up the relay team.
In the 100-yard dash, Clark and
Dornak placed second and third
with clockings of 9.7 and 9.8. They
tied in the 220-yard dash with a
time of 21.5.
Other Aggies placing in the
meet were: Hubert Nelson (4th in

The Tigers were set to crack
open the season last Friday with
a road game in Crockett but rain

The Tigers will be 'out for re

to avenge a 9-2 licking at the

innings, and had an 0.86 ERA. The
fireballing righthander has already
inked a pre-enrollment application
to A&M.

For Practice Game With Rice
By JOE CALLICOATTE
The Aggie baseball team will
make its second appearance of the
1961 season today as they travel
to Houston for a practice bout
with the Rice Owls.
A&M will still be seeking to
chalk up a mark in the win column
after falling to Sam Houston
State last Friday on Kyle Field,
7-5.
Even though Friday’s game was
the season opener, Coach Tom
Chandler said he was quite dis
appointed in the Cadets’ showing.

A&M Bowling Team
Sewes Up Title
By LEE WILSON
The A&M Match Bowling Team
all but mathematically sewed up
its second straight .Texas Inter
collegiate Bowling Conference
championship in San Antonio last
Saturday.
The Aggies, long recognized as
one of the best college bowling
teams in the Southwest, went into
Saturday’s action leading the con
ference by only seven games. Af
ter matches with Southern Meth
odist University, Arlington State
College, and San Antonio College
the Aggies found themselves with
a solid twelve and one half game
margin over the second place Po
nies.
Bowling for the Aggies were
Larry Dantzler, a junior civil en
gineering major from Dallas;
Parks Mahaney, a senior electrical
engineering major from Ft. Worth;
John Tinney, a junior industrial
education major from Longview;
Bob “Possum” Korose, a freshman
chemistry major from Houston;
and Lee Wilson, an education ma
jor from Austin. Accompanying
the team was Marvin “Pro” But
ler, economics profesor, who is the
team faculty advisor.
In the match with SMU the Ag
gies set two new scoring records
as they won four. In the second
game they shot 1030, which repre
sents a 206 average per man. They
ended the match with a total pin
score of 2890, a 192 average. High
(men for A&M were Bob Korose,
with 226-622, and Lee Wilson, 213-
627.
The second match found the Ca
dets taking three of four from the
Arlington State Rebels. Parks
Mahaney supplied the big guns as
he shot 236-625. Larry Dantzler
offered support with his 207-591.
Rounding out the day’s activi
ties, which saw the Aggies win 11
of 12 points, the match team swept
four from San Antonio College. In
this series the entire team shot
relatively the same with Lee Wil
son’s 232-606 being high. The
victory was a sweet one for the
team, as they had comments from
SAC rooters about their sloppy
strikes. In the end, however, they
all looked the same on the score
sheet.
With but two matches left, the
Aggies are comfortably on top of
the heap by twelve and one half
games. The standings are:

s
fielding errors, said Chandler, “and
our hitting just wasn’t up to par.”
Chandler pointed out, that to
have a winning team, you must
have one of several combinations.
A team must have good hitting
and a strong defense or a strong
pitching staff. The Cadets are a
little weak on the mound this sea
son so Chandler said he was rely
ing on the latter combination and
as he put it, “We just didn’t work
it that way Friday.”
In Friday’s outing, Sam Houston
jumped to a 3-0 lead in the third
inning as a result of two errors
and one hit. Three more runs
were scored by the Bearcats in
the top of the sixth inning as Jerry
Warren relieved Starter Ed Sing-
ley on the mound. Warren gave up
four bases on balls, walking in
one run, before Ray Davis banged
out a single to score the fifth at
sixth runs.
Don Costlow came in during tt
sixth inning to retire the side, li
not before the final Sam Housto
run was scored. Mike Spence ft

Sophomores Star
In Scrimmage Game
Saturday was a day for the
sophomores as they lead the Ma

The scrimmage wrapped up the
