THE BATTALION
Page 4
College Station, Texas
Cadets Lose Heartbreaker
By JIM BUTLER
Battalion Sports Editor
A 19-point lead sifted
through the fingers of the gal
lant Aggies as Texas Tech’s
Sid Wall hit a long one-hander
with two seconds left in the
ballgame to give the Red Raiders
a thrilling 84-82 victory.
The full court press proved to
be the Cadets' nemesis again as a
hustling Glen Hallum repeatedly
stole the ball to whittle down the
Aggie margin. Royce Woolard
scored the tying bucket with seven
seconds remaining to set the stage
for Wall’s game-winning shot.
A FULL HOUSE of 10,150 plus
3,000 more fans watching a closed
circuit TV tie-up in an adjoining
auditorium watched A&M take the
opening tip-off and move out to a
quick four point lead on shots by
John Beasley and Bennie Lenox.
Tech tied the score at 10-10 and
again at 16-16 before taking their
only lead, 17-16, until the final for 25 points and 13 rebounds while
basket.
AMID A SHOWER of paper
cups and with the score tied 19-19,
Beasley hit six straight points to
start the Aggie surge. In the clos
ing minutes of the first half, Bill
Robinette hit two field goals and
three free throws and Lenox
dropped in 10 points to boost the
margin to 15.
Beasley dropped in two charity
tosses; Dick Stringfellow netted a
layup at the buzzer; and A&M
left the floor with an unbelievable
19 point edge, 52-33.
THE AGGIES WERE just
slightly fabulous in the first 20
minutes out-rebounding, out-shoot
ing and out-hustling the highly-
touted Matadors before 10,000
antagonistic fans. The sportsman
ship of the spectators prompted
Tech coach Gene Gibson to take
the microphone and ask the fans
to restrain their wild antics.
Beasley and Robinette teamed

Lenox gunned in 19 points for the
backbone of A&M’s opening attack.
Meanwhile, the Aggie defense
limited Tech to 11 field goals and
a 37.5 percent shooting average.
THE CADETS HIT on 53.8 per
cent of their shots.
But just as sure as sunrise came
the second half. The Red Raiders
came out in a full court press. The
Aggies slowed down. Tech didn’t.
With three of the Matadors in
foul danger, A&M went into a semi
stall trying to draw out the Tech
defense. Then Hallum went to
work.
THE BALDING senior hit three
free throws and made three steals.
Suddenly the scoreboard showed
Tech trailing by 12.
A&M couldn’t have bought a
field goal with a JFK half dollar
as the Panhandlers cut the Aggie
lead to three, 61-58.
THE CADETS settled down for
a spell and built their margin to
eight with five minutes to play.
Then Robinette drew his fifth foul
and the Aggie downfall began.
Lenox and Beasley kept the Ags
in a slender lead but couldn’t stop
the Tech onslaught led by soph
Dub Malaise and senior Wall.

MALAISE tipped in a missed
Raider shot to put the score at
82-80 and set the stage for the
climactic finish. With 30 seconds
left, Malaise drew his fifth foul
and Lenox went to the free throw
line. Lenox’s shot bounced off the
back of the rim and Hallum pulled
down the rebound.
The Raiders took the ball down
court and Wall shot from the right
of the lane. His shot bounded off
and Woolard grabbed the ball and
put it through the hoop to tie the
score.

British Smog
LONDON UP) — So many
trashy American books and
magazines are pouring into
Britain that the customs agents
have had to quit burning them-
made too much smoke.
This odd disclosure by the
London Committee Against Ob
scenity, an interdenominational
organization of religious lead
ers, came at a news conference
recently announcing an intensi
fied drive against such reading
matter.
“In the past three years the
British customs have seized
826,454 pornographic American
paperback books and 328,464
magazines,’’ a committee spokes
man said.
“Most of them arrived at the
port of Southampton, where the
customs used to burn them. But
the dock area has been made a
smokeless zone by law and the
agents now have to drive the
seized publications away in lor
ries to a factory where the of
fensive matter is shredded.”

So, the Aggies lost to the Texas Tech Red Raiders.
They lost with a story book long shot in the final!)
seconds that couldn’t happen in maybe a lifetime fori
Wall.
They played on the Raiders’ home court before«
10,150 screaming, hysterical West Texans. And wini
over those odds is like Castro taking a peace prize.
The Aggies came closer, much closer than anyone t!
to topping Tech on their own court. Since they played si
a terrific contest against such pressure, they still sb
be left out in the cold.
The loss to Tech did not put the Ags out of the Soil

teams in a tie for first place.
The Aggies are in fine shape during the rest of I
