THE BSTTSUOR ggics SMU’s Spread Quarter TDs The Agg-ies were ready for SMU last Saturday and after be ing shocked by the Mustangs’ spread formation in the second and third quarters, they won the contest going away. With the score tied 12-12 going into the fourth quarter, the Ag gies tallied twice in the final pe riod to win, 25-12. It was the tremendous defense put up by the linemen and line backers that paused so much trouble in the SMU backfield. The likes of Wayne Freiling, Keith Huggins, Bull Phillips and Buddy Filers were constantly foil ing the Ponies’ playmaking. Coach Jim Myers was Avell pleased with the linebacking of his three outstanding fullbacks— Lee Roy Caffey, Sam Byer and Jerry Rogers—and center Jerry Hopkins. ‘Most Aggressive Game’ “These four men performed well at their position. The team as a whole played its most aggres sive game of the season against the Mustangs,” Myers said. With the Aggies “red-dogging” for the first time this fall, they I held the Ponies to a minus eight yards rushing in the first quar ter before SMU went to the spread. Jerry Rhome, the SMU sophomore passer, completed 17 out of 26 attempts for 141 yards and two touchdowns. Most of these completions were from the spread for eight to ten yards. The three Ag quarterbacks— John Erickson, Jim Keller and Ronnie Brice—played great games. Erickson with his leadership and passing, Keller with his ball hawking defense and Brice with his break-away runs. Even though SMU’s coach Bill Meek was hanged in effigy after the game in Dallas, the Mustangs played one of their best games of the year. From the viewpoint of many Aggie fans, the game officials helped the Ponies as much as they could. A pass interference (that was never called) and a Mustang touchdown were questioned a bit by the A&M backers. Game of Mistakes For about the first three quar ters it was a game of mistakes— a bad snap over the punter’s head, /^genuine by (STAR OF AFRICA KINO ENLARGED 10 SHOW DETAII McCarty Jewelers North Gate SPORTSWEAR ^ . we,,thWn THE WEATHER CHECKER Whether the weather is balmy or biting, you’re ready with the Weather Checker, a knockout new style by H-I-S that adapts to climatic conditions thanks to the zip-out Orion pile lining. 40” long, with a five-button front, it features Bal Collar, raglan shoulders, slash pockets, center vent, and sleeve tabs.

Travis Reagan, the speedy halfback from Wichita Falls, carried the iprst time around left end and almost broke away. The next play Erickson passed 56 yards to Raagan to the SMU 9. This was the season high for an A&M pa,ss and run. The Aggies’ drive bogged down and Daryle Keeling; missed his first field goal try this fall. On their third possession, the Aggies moved 77 yards in nine plays for the touchdown. The big play in the march was a 27-yard pass from Erickson to Reagan. Sam Byer Scored Sam Byer smashed over from the one-yard line on his ^fourth consecutive carry from the seven. Keeling missed the try for extra point. Early in the second period, SMU’s Rhome tried to punt from his own 20, but Pat Latham crashed through to block the kick. Three plays later, George Hargett blasted over right tackle for the TD. Brice’s pass to Ronnie Led better was incomplete. Moving from the spread, which was a headache to the Aggies, the Mustangs went 78 yards in 13 plays following the kickoff after the Ags’ second touchdown. The third quarter was almost all SMU as they had the ball all but eight plays. They moved 88 yards in 18 plays to tie the game. Caffey blocked the conversion at tempt. Hargett put the Ags back into business with about ten minutes remaining in the game as he re turned a Pony punt 25 yards to the SMU 33. ,With Bob Caskey carrying and receiving, the Ags went 33 yards in eight plays for the go-ahead touchdown. Caskey drove over from the two for the tally. The PAT was no good. After SMU made one first down in their attempt to catch up> they lost the ball on downs at the SMU 39. Brice Carries Four Straight Times Brice came in to quarterback for the Aggies and it only took him four plays to score. On the first play he went 24 yards, then he carried for six, then eight and finally one yard for the touch down. Brice fan his best since the Rice game last year when he sparked the Ags to a near upset. It was a close game until the Aggies’ depth and superior line play whipped down the heavier SMU team. DODGERS MISSED FREESE Los Angeles (A*)—Gene Frfeese, Cincinnati third baseman, might have been a Dodger had general manager Buzzie Bavasi taken the advice of Fred Hutchison, manager of the Reds. “When I left the Cardinals, Freese was still there,” recalls Hutchison. “I advised Bavasi to grab him. ‘Freese will wear out that left field screen,’ I told him.” This year Freese has cx*acked eight homefs in Los Angeles, seven over the left field screen. iilrfriTia “Sports Car Center” Dealers for Renault-Peugeot & British Motor Cars Sales—Parts—Service We Service All ^Foreign Cars” .416 Texas Ave. TA 2-4517 f 1 ^ You’ll Always Be m l Safe When You 1 Have Your Clothes Cleaned CAMPUS CLEANERS Bob Caskey said, “We’ve got some of bur confidence back and we’re going to be tough against Rice and those ‘stampeding’ Texas Longhorns.” First downs Kushini? yardaure PassiriK yurxluKe Total yardatce mpted passes Completed yar Attempted passes Passes intercepted Punts for yards Punting average Fumbles Fumbles lost Times penalized Yards penalized Final score by quarters: A&M G C 0 13 SMU 0 6 G 0 ★ ★ ★ The Aggie footballers worked out in the gymnasium yesterday in preparation for the Rice Owls.
