Singley was the logical man to pitch to.” Well, Singley illogically hit one of Osborn’s pitches between out fielders A1 Druskin and John Oster. Neither defender had a chance. George Plargett could have crawled home with the winning run. But he was happy so he pranced in. Osborn, of course, was disturbed. He had struck out the side in the eighth and was doing a commend able job in the ninth except for a bad throw to first, allowing Har gett to go to second. The mistake seemed excusable enough since it was Osborn’s first contact with college competition. “I went and let up on that guy,” he said. He would have liked to win this first one. “OSBORN DID a fine job in re lief,” Siebert said. ‘The plan just didn’t work out.” “In a similar situation,” a guy said, “would you use the same strategy ?” “Sure, I’d do the same thing,” he said. Tom Chandler, the Aggie coach, agreed with Siebert, “Singley hasn’t been hitting very well this year. His average can’t be much above .100.

The Aggies finished second to North Texas at the Southwest Recreation Meet at Fort Worth and were runners up to the University of Houston at the Border Olympics in Laredo. Ralph, Johnston of Queens Island, N. Y., Eugene Byrd of Stephen- ville, Mike Higgins of Tomball and either Harry Hoskins of Fort Worth or Jeff Andrick of San Antonio will comprise the Aggie foursome. Johnston, undefeated with a 7-0 record as a sophomore, tied for medalist honors in this year’s Recreation Meet and was third low individual in the Border Olympics. Johnston did not compete last sea- sop and is now in his senior year. By JIM BUTLER Battalion Ass’t Sports Editor Senior Jack Singley, deep in the clutch of a hitting- and fielding slump, jumped out in a big way Wednesday to drive in the winning run as the Aggies edged Minnesota 8-7 on Kyle Field. With the bases loaded and two men out, the infielder from Okla homa City, hit a long fly to the base of the fence in left-centerfield. All the runners crossed the plate but only the first counted. SINGLEY’S glove was respon sible for the Aggies’ needing only one run in the ninth as he made a great catch of a sinking liner with one man on in the top of the inning. Singley had replaced Bill Grochett at second base in the seventh. The Aggies started the scoring with three runs in the second frame. Robert McAdams singled through the box into centerfield, DeWayne Stewart doubled to the fence in deep center and Ray Hall walked. Grochett smashed a line drive inside third base for a double, clearing the bases. The Cadets added a run in the third on a home run by Stewart and gained another run in the fourth on a solo home run by catcher Bill Puckett. MINNESOTA was held scoreless on the one-hit pitching of Ed Singley until the fifth. Third sacker Mike Mulligan singled to center and moved to third on a single by pitcher Joe Pollack and a fielder’s choice for Duane Markus. Singley then hoisted a pitch over the head of catcher Puckett allowing Mulligan to score. John Andresen slashed a hit to left field bringing in Markus. The Gophers scored again in the seventh on a bases-empty homer by Andresen off Kenny Floyd, who Inter-Squad Game Will End Practice The Aggie football team will mark the end of spring training with the annual Maroon-White intra-squad game on Kyle Field Saturday at 7:30 p.m. The game is one of several func tions planned by the Aggie “T” Association, sponsoring organiza tion.
