At his present pace of 23.7 per

not only on those league marks of

Rice Field House is a bland brick
building that looks like it is laid
out for indoor tennis, or maybe
hall hockey. Into this horseshoe
shaped arena, 6,200 fans will be
crammed, probably with a shoe
horn, to see if the Rice Owls can
slow down a Maroon and White
drive toward the Southwest Con
ference cage championship.
A full house, the first in the
memory of A&M Coach Shelby
Metcalf, is practically a cinch to
watch the important Owl-Aggie
clash Saturday night at 8:15.
THE AGGIES take an 8-5 sea
son slate into the contest while
Rice is 9-4. The Cadets are cur
rently pacing the SWC with a 3-0
record with the Owls a game be
hind at 2-1.
The game will feature two
rookie coaches — Metcalf of A&M
and George Carlisle of Rice. Car
lisle surveyed the situation from
his second-story office in the field
house and called the upcoming bat
tle a “must” game for both teams.
“If A&M wins, it is just about in,”
Carlisle said. “This is definitely
the big game in the conference.”
IT COULD BE suspicioned that
Carlisle’s knowledge of Aggie
sharpshooter Bennie Lenox —
gained from watching and coach
ing Lenox for nine years at Clear
Creek — might give Rice a little
edge in stopping the Lynx. Car
lisle emphatically denies this. “Oh,
I know the things Lenox does
best,” Carlisle said, “but that won’t
give us an advantage.”
Asked whether or not the home
court advantage will be a factor
Carlisle commented: “I don’t think
it will be. There will probably be
as many Aggies there as Rice stu
dents since we have a much small
er student body. A&M will have a
little edge in rebounding. Our boy
Rhine (Kendall) will hold his own,
but A&M’s height advantage
should make up for the difference.
It should be an even game.”

lines watching the University of
Houston hand the Aggies a 73-65
loss Tuesday night. While the Cou
