a formidable opponent for SWC
foes.
Basketball, though not as strong-
in young material as some of the
other sports, has been helped by
the addition of Gerald Woodard,
Junior College All-American, to
the squad.
Returning will be sophs Dave
Johnson and Bennie Lenox and
juniors Jerry Windham and Ben
ny Johnson to give Coach Bob
Rogers the strength to make a run
for the conference title.
Coach Omar Smith’s netters will
be far from pushover in the ten
nis department as undefeated
freshmen Richard Barker and
Ricky Williams join sophomore
lettermen Carroll Kell, Ray Sala
zar and Doug Sassman.
Track and baseball are the
brightest spots with Coach Char
lie Thomas losing only distance
runner Thad Crooks, weightman
Charlie Tiemann and javelin
thrower John Long while gaining
freshman record-holders Ted Nel
son (440) and Lewis Poland (pole
vault).
Coach Tom Chandler lost no
starters from his SWC runner-up
baseball team which featured four
all-conference players and the
leading conference batsman, all
sophs.
So the year of experience has
been gained and the only way to
go is up.

Year’s Ag Sports
Are Now History
By VAN CONNER
Varsity sports at A&M ended
almost two weeks ago, and intra
mural activity quickly followed
suit last week. A school year of
sports has brought thrills and dis
appointments, near-wins and lost
causes.
In overall conference play
through 1961-62, A&M’s athletes
Aggies Land Stark, Hancock
On NCAA All-District 6 Team
DALLAS, May 23 — Champion
Texas dominated the 1962 NCAA
District 6 All-star baseball team
as players from nine institutions
were honored on the squad an
nounced Tuesday by the Selection
Committee.
Texas, fresh from a district
playoff decision over Arizona,
claimed five of the eleven first-
team nominations, while Texas
A&M and Arizona placed two
players each. The other first-team
spots went to Arkansas and Rice.
Texas Tech, Houston, Baylor,
TCU and Arizona State placed
players on the second team, as did
Arizona and Texas A&M.
Bibb Falk, who coached Texas to
the Southwest Conference cham
pionship, was named District 6
coach of the year. His players
named to the first team were
Catcher Gary London, Second
Baseman Pat Rigby, Outfielder
Chuck Knutson, Pitcher Tom Bel
cher and Third Baseman Ed Kas
per, who was selected as utility
man.
First team selections, with full-
season batting averages or pitch
ing records listed in parentheses:
Gary London, Texas (.302), catch
er; Frank Stark, Texas A&M,
(.338), first base; Pat Rigby,
Texas (.392), second base; Bill
Hancock, Texas A&M (.368), third
base; Jerry Carlton, Arkansas
(.382), shortstop; Chuck Knutson,
Texas (.321), Joe Skaisgir, Arizo
na (.361), and Jim Fox, Rice
(.419), outfield; Dan Schneider,
Arizona (13-1) and Tom Belcher,
Texas (11-1), pitcher; Ed Kasper,
Texas (.348), utility.

hung in with the best of them, end
ing up second for the year in eight
sports. First in cross-country and
golf topped the list of Aggie plac
ing. There was a heart-breaking
second in SWC baseball and thirds
in basketball, track and field, and
swimming.
The Ags ended up a respectable
fourth in conference football play,
winning three of seven. The young
tennis squad, suffering from the
loss of senior Richard Halter to
sickness, finished sixth among sev
en teams.
Sqd. 3, Puryear Hall and Sqd. 8
were leaders in the year’s intra
mural activities, taking the Class
A, Civilian and Class B champion
ships, respectively.
E. L. Ener was the feature leg-
ger in the 1961 cross country com
petition. The junior from Jasper
turned in a 14:11.8 on the Dallas
cross country course and, in doing
so, set the conference record. Ener
was backed up on the winning
cross country team by Ilnan Bil-
gutay, Thad Crooks, Malcolm Har
dee, Thomas Johnston, James King
and Bill Doreen.
John Lively, Jim Fetters, Dickie
Duble, Wayne Stroman, Harold
Hoskins were regulars on Coach
Henry Ransom’s SWC-winning
varsity golf team.
This spring saw A&M field what
many have called, “the most col
orful young team in Aggie base
ball history.” The sophomore-stud
ded team won four of 15 games
within the conference this season
and came within an inning of de
feating experienced Texas at Aus
tin for the number one spot.
According to SWC cage experts,
an era has passed at A&M, with
the end of Carroll Broussard’s eli
gibility. Fans watched the Port
Arthur basketballer break every
school scoring record on the books
during his career.
And so on the history of the
year’s sports goes. The losses to
rival Texas forgotten and the
above niceties recalled, it was far
i from a disappointing year. It gave
I valuable experience where needed
and enough success to whet the ap
petites of young athletes in the
near future at A&M.
