THE BATTALION
Aggies, Rain-Spattered
Lose To Ponies, 9-7
FIRST DOWN FOR A&M
Mike Pitman cuts over right guard for six yards in fourth period.
It was a story older than time for A&M seniors
and an only slightly less familiar tale to under
classmen—the Aggies lost.
Barely, yes, but still a loss, the sixth of the
season for the luckless Cadets.
IT WAS AN old story, too, for the SMU
Mustangs, but with a surprise ending—SMU won.
Last year, A&M’s Mike Clark shattered the Ponies’
Homecoming with two fourth quarter field goals
for a 12-7 Aggie victory. Again the three-pointer
was the final blow with SMU's John Richey kicking
the 17-yard clincher for a 9-7 triumph.
SMU’S Coach Hayden Fry in the dressing room
after the game said the same thing all coaches say
when their team comes from behind to win, “Our
kids just didn’t give up.”
THE AGGIES didn’t give up either. They just
had their customary lapse at the end of the game
instead of the middle or the beginning.
But for a drop of rain in the official’s eye,
A&M might have won. The Aggies were stymied
on the Pony 21 after George Hargett had returned
an intercepted pass 57 yards to SMU’s 22. Bob Lee
attempted a field goal that the referee judged to
be wide. The kick looked good from the east side
of the field and Aggie Coach Hank Foldberg, stand
ing on the west side, felt the boot was good, ^
the referee said it was wide, and his decision com
Foldberg said after the game.
THE AGGIES came within inches of a tie
the second period when tackle Bill Ward
through to apparently catch SMU’s Danny Tliosi
in the end zone for a safety. But the offiti
spotted the ball on about the three-inch line.
For something like the upmteenth timetl
season, Jim Keller’s booming punts were thelat
bone of the Aggie offense. The tall senior kitt
six times for a 45.3 yard average. Keller got i
probably the best punt of the year under ^
circumstances in the second quarter. A&M n
backed up on its own three yard line with spon{
rain making the field and ball slippery. Ki|
came in on third down and boomed a 59-yardpt;
from the Aggie end zone.
Keller’s opposite number and the Southa
Conference’s leading punter, Danny Thomas, kida
seven times for an even 45 yard average.
Soph Bill Ward demonstrated that he will
a man to watch for the next two years witklj
stellar line play. Hargett drew praise from Foil
berg for doing a “fine job.”

Athletic Integration Nearing Texas
BY JERRY PILLARD
AUSTIN <A>)—Texas Athletic
director Darrell Royal said Mon
day the school’s athletic council
will meet soon to discuss integra
tion of the university’s athletics.
“Certainly it’s too late for this
season,” Royal said. The univer
sity board of regents voted Sat
urday to drop all racial barriers at
the university, except dormitory
segregation.
“I IMAGINE we will meet pret-

ty soon,” Royal said, “but it’s up
to council chairman Myron Bege-
man to call the meeting.”
Begeman said the athletic coun
cil did not have another meeting
scheduled until some time in De
cember “but we may have to have
another meeting earlier than that.”
He said a decision will be made
late this week.
BEGEMAN SAID the .council
held a meeting last Friday, the day
before the regents’ action, “but I
don’t believe the word ‘integration’
was even mentioned. We have dis
cussed the situation informally in
the past but have taken no action
on it. Some time ago the matter
was taken out of our hands when
the regents said, in so many words
‘when we get ready to integrate
we’ll let you know.’ ”
Begeman said he felt the start
of athletic integration was not a
matter “that must be decided over
night. We are not doing any re
cruiting now and won’t be until
after the holidays.”
TEXAS BECAME the first
school in the Southwest Confer
ence to announce athletic integra
tion.
Royal, meeting with newsmen at
his regular Monday news confer
ence, praised his No. 1 ranked
Longhorns for their 7-0 victory
over Baylor Saturday to take un
disputed lead of the conference.
Undefeated in eight games this
year, Texas still faces upset-mind
ed Texas Christian University Sat
urday and A&M Thanksgiving
Day. Quarterback Duke Carlisle,
who led the Texas attack offen
sively and intercepted a Don Trull
end zone pass with 19 seconds left
in the game, came in for special
praise.
A&M Netters Defeated In Houston
Richard Barker of the A&M
Tennis team got into the quarter
finals of the Fall Festival Tennis
Tournament in Houston Sunday.
He beat John Pryor, Memorial
High School, 2-6, 6-2, 6-4 and lost
to John Been, seeded number four,
in a marathon match. The score
was 3-6, 19-17, and 6-3.
The other results were Luis
Rojas, A&M, defeated Ray Glaves,
University of Houston, 6-2, 7-5.
He lost to Jimmy Parker, Rice
University, seeded number one,
6-2, 6-8 and 6-2, in a very close
match. Albert Aldrich, A&M, de
feated Sam Moss, of Houston, 8-6,
8-6. He lost to Hugh Sweeney, of
Houston, 6-3, 6-1.
In the doubles match Luis Rojas
and Raul Contreras lost in the
quarter-finals against Richard
Shuthy and Art Foust, both grad
uate students, 6-4, 6-4.

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.
