White Coliseum by an 88-73 score
in a Southwest Conference contest.
With the win, the Aggies went
into a tie for first place in the
SWC as TCU downed Texas Tech,
65-63. The Aggies now have a
5-2 mark in SWC play, the Owls
have a 4-3 record, and Tech has
a 5-2 mark.
Carroll Broussard, the A&M All-
America who has been hampered
the majority of the season with
a chronic back injury, broke out
with his greatest performance of
the year as he dropped in 26
points on eight field goals and 10
free throws. Most of Broussard's
field goals came on long, arching
jump shots from 30 feet out and
was the most points scored by an
Aggie this winter. Previous high
was 25 by Benny Johnson against
Wichita.
Broussard wasn’t the only show
as four other Cadets hit in the
double figures. Jerry Windham,
the 6-6 center from Hamilton,
scored 17 for his best night of the
season. Windham also did a yeo
man’s job in guarding Rice’s 6-10
center, Kendall Rhine. Rhine
scored 10 points.
Bennie Lenox, Benny Johnson
and Tommy Smith round out the
“double figure” boys as they
scored 15, 14 and 12, respectively.
Rice started out like a prairie
fii’e in the early minutes of the
game and led the Aggies by 10-4
with 17:17 left in the first half.
The Owls held the lead until 9:40
remaining when the Aggies went
ahead to stay on an outside jumper
by Broussard. Then with Wind
ham and Broussard assaulting the

nets, the Cadets pulled into a 44-34
lead at intermission.
The game was a ragged one as
the Owls committed 24 fouls to 16
by the Aggies. And is was at the
foul line that the Cadets heat the
Owls. A&M made good on 24 out
of 32 charities while Rice was hit
ting on only nine of 18. The two
teams deadlocked in field goals
with 32 each.
Windham’s fine performance
can be attributed to his free
throws; a department where his
only weakness is. He hit on seven
of eight free tosses.
.Spice was added to the already
hot game when the referees called
a technical foul on Rice’s coach
John Frankie. Smith quickly
dropped in the free throw.
Top man for the Owls was 6-6
senior, Olle Shipley, who scored
15 points. He was followed by
Larry Phillips with 14 and Jim
Fox with 13.
The Aggies journey to Dallas
Saturday night for an SWC battle
with the SMU Mustangs. A&M
defeated SMU in their earlier
meeting this season at College
Station, 75-55.

Fish Cagers Down
Owlets, 70-59
By VAN CONNER
Battalion Assistant Sports Editor
By dominating second-half play,
Coach Shelby Metcalf’s Fish bas-
ketballers downed the Rice Owlets,
70-59, last night to score their
third season win.
Versatile Paul Timmons, a 5-11
guard from League City, and
lanky David Stiles, a 6-3 forward
from Midlothian, led the Aggie
freshman scoring with 24 and 18
points, respectively.
Owlet Larry Tiner was Rice’s
high-point man with 13.
The Rice frosh took command in
the first half and led 6-0 with a
little over three minutes gone.
Timmons and Jay Baker quickly
remedied the situation for the
Fish, however, and the half settled
down to a see-saw build-up of
points with the Owlets leading by
two and three points throughout.
With 4:06 left in the first pe
riod, Tommy Bantle dropped his
only two points of the evening for
A&M and put his team even with
the Owlets, 20-20. The Fish were
never again behind in the contest
and led at halftime, 33-28.
The Fish came back from the
dressing room and turned on the
steam. Baker, Stiles and Timmons
punished the cords in an offensive
drive that peaked at a 16-point
lead in the middle of the half.
With about nine minutes left the
Owlets went back to work and
chopped at the Aggie lead. Wayt
scored eight points in the last six
minutes and once put Rice within
five points of the then stalling
Fish.
Improved Fish rebounding and
a searing offense doused the flick
er of hope held by the Owlets.
Stiles shook off a finger poke in
the eye qAd dropped two free
throws. Baker and Timmons
hustled back and forth during the
last minute to put the Fish ahead
by eleven, 70-59, at the game’s end.
The Fish, now sporting a 3-5
record, will meet the TU freshmen
before the varsity game Tuesday
night.

"Tareyton's Dual Filter in duas partes divisa est!"
says Lucius (Dead-eye) Claudius, crack marksman of the
XVI Cohort catapult team. “People come from Nero and
far for Tareyton,” says Dead-eye. “Vero, Tareyton’s one filter
cigarette that really delivers de gustibus. Try a pack and see
why the whole gang in the cohort is forum.”
