Tuesday’s scheduled baseball
opener against Texas Lutheran
was postponed because of the un
timely chill and will be played at
3 p.m. Thursday on the Kyle Field
diamond.
Aggie coach Tom Chandler and
the TLC mentor decided not to
risk having any of their baseball-
ers hurt right off the bat in the
1963 season.
Chandler was pleased with Sat
urday’s intrasquad game and
thinks he has found “who wants
to play.”
Pitchers Johnny Crain, Richard
Seller and Ed Singley will prob
ably be used in the Thursday
opener.
A&M will be counting on out
fielders Robert McAdams, Ray
Hall and third baseman Bill Han
cock, last season’s SWC batting
king, for most of the big hitting.
Hall, a senior center fielder from
Fort Worth, went four for four in
the Saturday game. He hit two
homers in a row, including a grand
slammer on a line shot that hit the
ramp under the football stadium.
Gary Cavasas will probably go
at left field. Bill Puckett will han
dle the catching- chores. Frank
Stark will be at first, Bill Grochett
at second and Jack Singley at
short.
meant the difference in the game
but the Aggies weren’t able to
take advantage.
With a little over a minute left
and the Maroon trailing by three
points, Bill Robinette fouled Rice’s
Larry Phillips who missed his free
throw. The Cadets, who had scored
only three field goals in the sec
ond half after shooting a phe
nomenal 56 per cent in the first
half, rebounded the missed shot
but didn’t score.
THIRTY SECONDS later with
the Ags only one point shy fol
lowing a bucket by Robinette, Jei'-
ry Windham fouled Warren Schick.
Schick missed his shot, and the
Cadets again cleared the boards
and quickly called time out.
When play resumed, Paul Tim
mins fell short with a long jump
shot and the Owls closed out the
game with a pair of free throws
by Phillips.
The loss left the Aggies with a
16-8 season record, while Rice fin
ished with 12 wins and 11 losses
for the full route. Both teams had
9-5 conference records to tie for
second place.
THE SCORING battle between
Bennie Lenox and Kendall Rhine
for the SWC title ended in a tie
with each having 352 points. Rhine,
who trailed Lenox by 11 points
going into the game, scored 22 in
the first half and seven in the
second for 29 points while the
Lynx netted 18 before fouling out
midway through the final period.
Lenox’s personal battle with
Carroll Broussard’s school scoring
records ended in a draw with the
Clear Creek guard bveakiiJ
record for most points ill
ference season, the old out
339. However, Lenox needd
field goals to hold the ras
most field goals in a seasonj
and only netted two.

Does a man really take unfair advantage of women
when he uses Mennen Skin Bracer?
All depends on why he uses it.
Most men simply think Menthol-Iced Skin Bracer is the best
after-shave lotion around. Because it cools rather than burns.
Because it helps heal shaving nicks and scrapes. Because it
helps prevent blemishes.
So who can blame them if Bracer’s crisp, long-lasting aroma
just happens to affect women so remarkably?
Of course, some men may use Mennen Skin Bracer because
of this effect. —
How intelligent! (jD
