Cagers Face Rice
In Houston Tonight
The 1962-G3 Aggie basketbal-
lers, both varsity and freshmen,
close out this season Tuesday night
in Houston against a stubborn Rice
squad.
The game will be one of de
cisions. First, it will decide wheth
er or not the Ags are to be un
disputed second-place holders in
the Southwest Conference, or if
they will have to share that slot
with the Owls.
Secondly, fans will find out
which of two point-producing won
ders, A&M’s Bennie Lenox or
Rice’s Kendall Rhine, will win
SWC scoring honors for this year.
WITH 550 points, Lenox is 43
ahead of Rhine in season play and
his 334 in league competition is
H better than the 6-10 Rice cen
ter’s.
Fencing Club
Plans 4 Meets
The Fencing Club team has
scheduled four meets with a series
beginning here March 16, Coach
Russell K. Wieder announced
Thursday. The Aggies will host
the University of Texas at 3 p.m.
March 16 and Rice University at
3 p.m. March 23.
Wieder said the Aggies will meet
Rice in Houston at 2 p.m. March
30. The final event is scheduled
at 2 p.m. April 6 in Austin as the
Aggies again compete with the
Texas fencers.
And it will decide how many
A&M records, now held by Carroll
Broussard, will fall to the dead-eye
accuracy of Lenox in his junior
season. The League City guard
already has wrecked four of the
former Broussard marks.
If Lenox can hit six points
against the Owls, he will have the
most points per SWC season re
cord. He needs only three field
goals to break Broussard’s 189 in
a season.
He will have to hit 14 against
Rice to set a school and SWC re
cord for most field goals in a
SWC season.
SENIOR JERRY Windham, a
forward from Hamilton Who will
be playing his last game for A&M,
has a chance to best Broussard’s
season rebounding mark if he can
bring down 13 Tuesday.
Lee Walker and Lewis Qualls
are the other two lads who will
play their last contest for Bob
Rogers in Houston.
Coach Johnny Frankie will prob
ably lead off with Rhine at center,
6-0 Herb Steinkamp at a guard
and defending against Lenox, 6-2
Barry Rodrigue at a guard, and
Larry Phillips and Don Seigmund
at the forwards.
A&M defeated the Owls in G.
Rollie White Coliseum, 71-61, back
in January.
Shelby Metcalf’s league-leading
Fish will meet the Owlets in a
preliminary contest at 6 p.m. The
Ag frosh won at home, 68-56, in
the January meeting.

Thinciads Beat Tex,
T
A&M’s varsity tracksters took
seven first places and had high
men in almost all events Saturday
afternoon in Houston to defeat
Texas and Rice in their outdoor
debut of the 1963 season.
The Aggies scored 68 points in
the meet to 59 for Texas and 43
for the host team.
THE CADETS grabbed the lead
in the opening 1 event, the 440-yard
relay, and kept a strain on
throughout the meet. Robert Mar
tin, Ted Nelson, R. E. Merritt and
Eug’ene Dornak turned in a 42.2
effort to finish way ahead of sec
ond place Texas.
High-point man in the meet was
junior Aggie weightman Danny
Roberts, who took first in the shot
put and discus, and fourth in the
javelin. He tossed the steel sphere
56-614 and threw the discus 163-
3%.
Nelson lived up to expectations
by taking a first in the 440-yard
dash, where he turned in a 47.9 to
beat teammate George Tedford

In Season’s Last 1 lome Game
G. Rollie Finale

Ag Tennis Team Wins Pair
At East Texas, Oklahoma
Coach Omar Smith’s varsity ten
nis team brought home a pair of
victories last weekend to even up
its season record at 2-2.
A&M’s netters managed a 5-1
win over East Texas State Fri
day afternoon and then went on
to Norman, Okla., to defeat the
Sooners, 4-3.
In the Saturday meeting, the
Aggies took three of five singles
matches and split the doubles com
petition with Oklahoma.
The going was actually rougher
on Friday, when Smith’s lads had
to win on split sets in every
match. They lost only one, the
number one pairing.
In the Oklahoma competition
Richard Bai'ker of A&M beat Mike
Rooker, 6-1; A&M’s Carroll Kell
defeated Mark Latham, 6-1, 6-4;

progress,” he said.

Friday and tangle with formidable
Trinity in San Antonio Saturday.

Battalion, Ass’t Sports Editor
Texas Tech’s Red Raiders fell
victim to A&M’s highest point
total ever Friday night in G. Rol
lie White Coliseum as the Cadets
trounced the Toreadors, 96-83.
In the process, Bennie Lenox
knocked off another A&M scoring
record, and barring a recurrence
of Hurricane Carla, a stock mar
ket crash or World War III, should
break two more records Tuesday
night against Rice.
THE “LYNX” finished the night
with 39 points to secui'e the record
of most points in a season with 550
points. The old record was 538
set by Carroll Broussard in 1961.
Lenox needs only six points and
three field goals against Rice to
hold the records of most points in
an SWC season (339) and most
field goals in a season (189).
Tech’s Glen Hallum bucketed
the first shot of the game to give
the Red Raiders a lead which they
kept for the first six minutes.
With the score standing at 10-9,
Lee Walker hit on a hook shot
which might as well have ended
the game right there, as Tech saw
only the Aggies’ dust from then
The teams left the floor at half
time with the Farmers holding a
48-3i advantage. With Walker do
ing service on the boards, A&M
out-rebounded Tech 31-18.
The second half went no better
for the visitors as the Cadets in
creased their lead to over 20 points
midway through the period.
JERRY WINDHAM, playing his
last home game for the Aggies,
fouled out with 9:52 left and was
given a standing ovation by the
3,400 fans present in appreciation
of his fine play for three years.
Walker and Lew Qualls were
given similar farewells in the clos
ing minutes. Walker was second
high scorer with 19 points and
pulled down 16 rebounds.
Mike Farley scored 17 to lead
the Lubbock crew, while Harold
Denney had 15 and Tom Patty 14.

/'Give us a brake," Ford Motor Company engineers were told, "that
will automatically compensate for lining wear whenever an adjustment
is needed-and make it work for the entire life of the lining."
Tough assignment—but not insurmountable. Today, not only does
every Ford-built car boast self-adjusting brakes (Falcon extra-duty
bus-type wagons excluded), but the design is so excellent that adjust
ments can be made more precisely than by hand.
This Ford-pioneered concept is not complex. Key to it is a simple
mechanism which automatically maintains proper clearance between
brake drum and lining.
MOTOR COMPANY
The American Road, Dearborn, Michigan
WHERE ENGINEERING LEADERSHIP
BRINGS YOU BETTER-BUILT CARS
Self-adjustment takes place when the brakes are applied while backing
up. This adjustment normally occurs but once in several hundred
miles of driving. The brake pedal stays up, providing full pedal
reserve for braking.
Another assignment completed—and another example of how Ford
Motor Company provides engineering leadership for the American Road.
