three more times, too,” Ronnie
Lindsey, Aggie Fish halfback, pre
dicted following a 7-0 victory by
the A&M Freshmen over the Tex
as Yearlings on Thanksgiving eve.
Lindsey had just been reminded
that the Fish had defeated the
Yearlings for the first time since
1954 when John Crow, Charley
Krueger and company were fresh
men.
The future varsity gridmen
whooped it up, then harmonized to
the tune of “The Aggie War
Hymn,” as they celebrated their
hard-earned triumph.
The one touchdown victory,
which could very well be the turn
ing point in Aggie-Longhorn foot
ball relations, was preserved by a
rugged defensive stand in the clos
ing moments of the game.
With only 18 seconds standing
between them and victory, the Fish
found themselves entrenched on
their one yard line with the Short
horns knocking on the door.
Three plays later, however,
Yearling quarterback Grady Her-
old was dumped on the three as
the gun sounded which ended the

nine year stretch of expectation
and anticipation by first year Ca
dets.
The Shorthorn offense seemed
to crumble inside the Fish 25 yard
line. Seven times that day the
Yearlings got a good whiff of pay
dirt, only to see their attack fail
to penetrate the stubborn Fish
lines.
The Aggie frosh struck early in
the second period when Lindsey
marched 26 yards to climax an
Aggie drive that went 77 yards in
11 plays. John Poss added the
extra point, and with 10:49 left in
the half the scoreboard read A&M
7, UT 0.
And there the scoring stopped,
but not the threatening as Texas
tried and tried to avoid a shutout.
The Shorthorns ran occasionally
from a spread formation, with
very limited success.
Trull Guards Lead
Against Miami Star
NEW YORK OP)—Baylor’s Don
Trull continues to lead in passing
and total offense among the na
tion’s major college football play
ers, but George Mira of Miami,
Fla., is posing a major threat.
Trull leads the Miami Star by
only 12 completions and 121 total
offense yards, according to sta
tistics released by the NCAA
Tuesday. Each has one game re
maining, Trull against SMU this
Saturday and Mira against Ala
bama Dec. 14.
Through games of last weekend,
Trull had gained a total of 2,115
yards to 1,994 for Mira. Roger
Staubach of Navy, the Heisman
award winner, is third with 1,738.
In passing, Trull has completed
160 to 148 for Mira. The Baylor
ace has picked up 2,047 yards on
passes and has a completion aver
age of .557. Mira’s figures are
1,854 yards and a .156 percentage.

Heart-Breaking Effor
Brought Cadets Clos
The University of Texas has
been voted No. 1 in the final UPI
poll and only a week stands be
tween the Longhorns and the na
tional championship in the AP poll.
But forever in the minds of Ag
gies, Texas is No. 1 in luck only,
and that is giving the benefit of
the doubt to the officials for their
supreme but ostensibly honest ef
forts in behalf of the Steers.
THERE WAS LITTLE doubt
about which was the better team
on a dreary Thanksgiving after
noon. Though the Longhorns beat
the Cadets statistically, the Aggies
fought long and hard, and earned
every one of their 13 points.
It is ambiguous to cite any Ag
gie for a hero’s role. All the Ag
gies were outstanding. Joe Well
born, Ronney Moore and Yancy
Bounds played a great game in the
defensive line and George Hargett
and James Willenborg stood out in
the secondary.
JIM KELLER did a tremendous
job as field general and Danny
Mcllhany made several important
plays from his right safety posi
tion. But the near upset would
have been impossible without a
full team effort.
And a memorable effort it was.
No Aggie can feel anything but
pride for the team that gave so
much and came so close.
AGGIE COACH Hank Fold-
berg’s feeling on the game did an
excellent job of expressing the
opinion of most of the 38,500 fans
in Kyle Field and several million
television viewers. “This,” Fold-
berg said, “is the greatest injus
tice to a group of young fellows
I’ve ever seen.”
But despite the obvious evit
(see page one) of poor official
there is absolutely nothing
can be done to reverse Texas'l;
victory. It was strictly a jt%
call on the part of the ofiit
and is in no way subjectto
versal.
Aggies can only walk tall,
proud of their team and:
school and fix their gaze on
future.
