Coach Tom Chandler’s baseball- ers collected only five hits but got them when they counted. Trail ing 3-1 in the bottom of the eighth, the Ags boomed, two big ones and put three men across. Pinch-hitting for Singley with one man away in that period, Bill Hancock put a shot down the third-base line and when the dust had cleared he was safe on third with a triple. Jack Singley then punched a line-drive single into center field, shoving Hancock across the plate. Belcher put the next man out but McAdams met his fast ball and blasted it 330 feet into the gusty wind over the left field fence. His round-tripper drove Singley home and put the Farmers out ahead, 4-3.

Maroon Offense Stops White, 24-0 Jim Keller, Travis Reagan and Jim Linnstaedter led their ma- roon-shirted teammates to a 24-0 victory over the White squad Sat urday night in the annual intra squad game that climaxed Coach Hank Foldberg’s first spring training session at A&M. Keller completed four out of four passes in the first half for 83 yards. The Maroons connected on nine of 11 passes in the game foi* 157 yards. The Maroons took command eai'ly in the game, receiving the opening 1 kickoff and driving 80 yards in four plays. The drive was climaxed by a 30-yard toss from Keller to Ken McLean for a touchdown. The ball changed hands twice and the Whites were twice unable to move the ball. Driving 55 yards in 12 plays, the Maroon squad fi nally pushed Reagan over from the 1-foot line for the second score, the Whites making an ad mirable goal-line stand for three downs. Soon after the second quarter began, the Whites, still failing to make a first down, had to give the ball up again and the Ma roons were also stymied after one first down. After four more unsuccessful downs, Lee Roy Caffey had to punt the ball out of bounds on the Maroon 25. With James Willen- borg in command, the Maroons moved 75 yards in 11 plays and Linnstaedter carried across on a 27-yard end sweep. Ronnie Brice kicked his third extra point and a few minutes later, after the Whites failed in their last chance to make a first down in the half, he booted a 27- yard field goal. There was no scoring in the second half, although the Whites came alive twice. Sophomore Mel vin Simmons of the Maroons re covered a Caffey fumble on his own 5-yard line to end the only serious White threat. Simmons was a standout in the line for the Maroons. Aggies Take Third Place At San Angelo A&M’s fine track team, led by weightman Danny Roberts, picked up three firsts out of thirteen events at the San An gelo Relays Saturday and placed third with 28*/2 points as a team behind ACC’s 40 and Texas’ 35.
