the first Annual Bluebonnet indoor
track meet held Friday in Hous

a warning of things to come.

inch to capture first in his spe
cialty. His previous best came j
several weeks ago in San Antonio
when he putted the steel ball 55-8
to take top honors in that meet.
Still a growing “boy,” Roberts
presents an excellent opportunity
for A&M to have a representative
in the 1964 Olympics which will
be held in Tokyo.
In 1952, Aggies Dar’row Hooper
and Buddy Davis carried Aggie
hopes to Helsinki. Hooper cap
tured second in the shot and Davis
took first in the high jump.
Charles Tiemann, senior team
mate and second man in the shot,
duplicated his performance in the
San Antonio meet by taking sec
ond behind Roberts. Tiemann
hurled the shot 51-2 to take run
ner-up honors in Houston.
The Aggie two-mile relay team
managed a clocking of 8:09.6 to
take thii'd place behind Howard
Payne and Texas. Thad Crooks,
E. L. Ener, Malcolm Hardee, and
Uhan Bilgutay make up the A&M
relay team.

HOUSTON —Alonzo Johnson
of Pittsburgh—a five-year boxing
veteran—tries to give young Tod
Herring of Houston a fighting
lesson in a 10-round heavyweight
match in Sam Houston Coliseum
Tuesday night.
Johnson, whose 20-7 record in-
| dudes bouts with the likes of Nino
Valdes, Alejandro Lavorante and
Cassius Clay, is favored by the
odds-makers.
Herring, 18-1, had his biggest
win July 11 with a knockout of
Harold Carter.
Johnson beat Tony Hughes a
month ago in his latest fight. Her
ring hasn’t lost since August when
Tony Alongi of New York beat
him on a cut eye in eight rounds.
Since then Herring has won all
three of his fights with knockouts
in five rounds or less.
The bout is a big test for Her
ring, who has been boosted by
talk of a New York television
fight if he beats Johnson.
Ags Rout Ponies
For 3rd S H C Win
Spurred by another “surprise”
star, the Aggie cagers routed an
erratic SMU Mustang team, 75-55,
in a Southwest Conference game
Saturday night in G. Rollie White
Coliseum before 6,800 jubilant
fans.
The “surprise” star was Ron
Durbon, the 6-4 forward from San
Antonio, who hit for season high
of 18 points. Durbon has been a
demon on rebounds throughout the
season, but his scoring output was
a bit down before the SMU contest.
It was the first defeat for the
Ponies in SWC competition who
now have a 3-1 record. The Aggies
have a 3-1 mark in the SWC
race and are tied with Texas
Tech, Rice and SMU for the lead.
Sparked by a tremendous 57.7
per cent from the field in the
first half, the Aggies appeared the
team to beat in the SWC in the
fight for the title. The Mustangs
also had a fine first half as they
hit on 50 per cent of their field
goal attempts. At the end the
Aggies had a 44 per cent and the
Ponies a 38 per cent.
The SWC’s leading scorer before
the game Saturday, SMU’s Jan
Loudermilk, was held to only five
points -— all of them on free
throws. A great defensive job by
Jerry Windham in the first half
and Carroll Broussard in the seond
made this possible.
It was a team effort that made
the victory by the large margin.
The Aggies, who again controlled
the boards 51-43, were led by
Bennie Johnson with 17 points and
eight rebounds and Windham, who
grabbed nine rebounds and dropped
in 12 points.
The victory marked the 19th
straight home win for the Aggies
and ironically, the Mustangs were
the last to win in the Coliseum.
That was in 1960, 64-66.
Top honors for the game went
to SMU’s Dave Siegmund with
22 points. Fourteen of these points
were scored in the first half as
the Ags went to the dressing room
with a 36-32 lead.
"Tareyfon's Dual Filter in duas partes divisa est!"
says Titus (Pretzel Bender) Ursus, darling of the Coliseum
crowd. Says Pretzel Bender, “After the amphitheater I relax
and have a Tareyton. Amo, amas... everyone amat Tarey ton.
Et tu will, too. Tareyton’s one filter cigarette that really
delivers de gustibus.”
