Baseball Team Edges Baylor for SWC Win The Aggie baseball team grabbed a big one from the Baylor Bears on Kyle Field yesterday afternoon as they edged to a 7-6 victory. In chalking up their fourrth win in six outings, Coach Tom. Chand ler’s Aggies are now 1-0-1 in the Southwest Conference race, after tying Texas in Austin la^t week end. The loss was Baylor’s first in five games, and left the Bruins with a 1-1 SWC record. They won their first game with Rice, 9-4. A&M jumped to a 6-3 lead through five innings, and after Baylor narrowed the margin to a run through seven frames, called on ace reliefer Bobby Collins. The Dallas senior, who came out of the Corps to play his first sea son of baseball, responded by re tiring the final six Baylor hitters in order to keep the win for starter Jerry Warren. ^ Baylor used four pitchers in the outing, but starter Jack Ward absorbed the loss. The Aggies’ Jack Singley col lected two of his team’s nine hits and drove home a pair of runs. Arthur Fuentes hit a three-run homer for Baylor in the third inning. A&M grabbed a one-run lead in the second inning when Fuentes dropped Ray Hall’s fly ball for an error in centerfield. Hall stole second base and moved to third on a wild pitch. Dick Hickerson’s broken-bat grounder brought Hall home. Warren got Tommy Ledbetter and Sam Terry on strikeouts to open the third, but Ward followed Diciplined Coach Coach Lloyd Russell (42) of Baylor is shown leaving his grandstand seat after the ball game yesterday that A&M won, 7-6. Russell was instructed to sit in the stands yes terday by the first base umpire after he had “too much to say.” Box Score You’re a natural wonder in THE WORLD’S LIGHTEST SPORT GOAT If your natural instinct is to play it cool — brother, you’ll flip your rasp berry for an Odd Jacket by Hd-S.

This set the scene for Fuentes’ homerun, which cleared the right field fence at the 340-foot mark. A&M came back to take the lead for good at 4-3 in the bottom of the third, scoring three runs on a walk to Terry Cobb, Warren’s single, a double by Jack Singley, sacrifice by John Burton apd a sacrifice fly by Byron Barber. The Aggies tallied twice in the fifth on a walk, single by Singley, an error and a single by Burton, and added its last score in the sixth on successive one-base hits by Stuffy Davis, Hickerson and Cobb. Baylor crossed the plate twice in the sixth on a walk to Byron Willis, infield hit by Ledbetter, bases-on-balls to Terry and pinch hitter Bob Barnett and a sacrifice fly by Uhlaender. The game’s final run was scored in Baylor’s half of the seventh on a walk to Jerry Funk and singles by Audie Cox and Willis. Besides the action on the play ing field there was some added attraction provided by Baylor coach Lloyd Russell in the seventh inning. The coach was somewhat displeased by a call at first base and even after the play was over, kept talking to the first base umpire. Undoubtedly the ump didn’t like what Russell had to say and the coach’s next move was toward the grandstand where he found a seat and stayed there until the game was over. After the game was over, sev eral Baylor players told the ump what they thought of the situation. Soccer Team Tops Dynamos For Fifth Win The A&M Soccer team chalked up their fifth win of the year over the weekend as they blasted the Dynamos of Houston, 5-0. Gustavo Gamero scored two of A&M’s goals and C. L. Matamoros chalked up three counters. The Aggies’ season record now stands at 5-3 with no more matches scheduled until after the Easter holidays. A&M played a top-notch game last Sunday as seven players drew favorable comment on their per formances. Intramurals There was not too much activity in intramural sports yesterday but the Class B rifle teams continued to prep for their fight for the title. In the five matches in Class B Rifle, Sq. 3 fired a respectable score to beat H-2, 438-402; M-Band shot one of the highest scores this spring as they defeated Sq. 14, 460-256; B-l blasted past G-3 for a 445-414 victory; Sq. 6 won over K-2, 293-228; and Sq. 5 out-fired Sq. 2, 169-189. r ^ SERVING BRYAN and COLLEGE STATION SAM HOUSTON ZEPHYR Lv.

There were many stars for the Fish in their decisive victory. Big Frank Stark, the first-sacker from Davenport, Iowa, smashed out three hits which included a home- John Gabbert, a man who came out of the Corps, collected three hits and drove in five runs. Cen- terfielder Robert McAdams ham mered out three hits and scored five runs in the assault. Second- bagger Bill Grochett got the re quired amount of hits to be in cluded in the “three hitter’s circle.” The winning pitcher for the Fish was Richard Beller, who chunked for six innings and only gave up three hits. Chuck McGuire re lieved in the seventh and pitched the final three frames without yielding a hit. “Both of the pitchers looked great and they • were never in trouble,” said Fish Coach J. B. Carroll. The Fish started off the slaugh ter in the first inning. After the first two men were out, Roger Crouch acquired a single and be fore the Cubs could get the third man out, the Fish had made six runs. Two more runs were added in the second, two in the fourth, six runs in the eighth and the final tally came in the ninth. The closest the Cubs ever came to home plate was in the fourth frame when one man reached third base. Carroll cited the play of three reserves—Raul Garcia, Jerry Gun ter and Rusty Uresti. “We really have 12 starters instead of nine,” said Carroll. “Sports Car Center”; Dealers for Renault-Peugeot & British Motor Cars Sales—Parts—Service “We Service All Foreign Cars' 1 ! 1416 Texas Ave. TA 2-4517!
