THE BATTALION
Aggies Bounce Bears
In Foul-Played Contest
The officials called a foul on the
opening tipoff, and that marked
the style of play in the first half
as 30 fouls were called. The Ag
gies then surged from a 47-47
intermission deadlock to take a
77-71 victory over the Baylor
Bears Tuesday in Waco.
A&M now has an 8-1 record in
the Southwest Conference and a
13-6 mark for the season to lead
the league. Baylor is now posting

Rice spilled Arkansas 77-69.
Dub Malais poured in 30 points
for the Red Raiders with 9 out
of 19 field goal tries and 12 of 17
free throws for his season high.
The victory left Tech in second
place in the league with a 7-2
record. TCU is still winless with
an 0-9 conference record.
Tech pulled ahead 55-49 at the
half after the lead had changed
hands five times.
The Horned Frogs stayed with
in seven points until midway
through the second half, when the
raiders compiled their biggest lead
at 96-78 with three minutes left
to play.
Elvis Spradling paced the Rice
Owls over an Arkansas team in
Houston with 17 points. Ace tally-
maker Kendall Rhine was held to
15 points.
The Owls never trailed in the
game and jumped into 12-point
leads twice in the first half before
the crowd of 2,000. Arkansas
managed a 35-30 lead at half
time.
Then Rice pulled away with a
21-point margin with 5:35 left
in the game. But Arkansas cut
it down to the final eight-point
difference as Coach George Car
lisle substituted freely.
SMU galloped away from a half
time tie in Dallas to go on and whip
Texas with Gene Elmore’s 19
points. The Mustangs now hold
a 6-3 conference mark and the
Longhorns, undefeated for three
straight games until they met the
Ponies, are 4-5 in the league.
In a two minute and 32 second
period, SMU pulled in 11 points
while holding Texas scoreless,
going from 39-38 to 50-38.
A&M Handballers
Beat Rice Squad
The A&M handball team took
eight singles and five doubles
matches to beat the Rice Uni
versity handball team here Sat
urday to win its second match of
the year over the Owls.
Rice won three singles tilts and
one doubles match in the com
petition.
In a side match, Arney Welch,
A&M’s former intramurel director,
defeated Rice’s coach, Bob Bland,
two straight games.
Wearing the Maroon and White
were Bill Altman, John Hedrick,
Ed Merritt, Jerry Levy, Ben Jack-
son, Pete Hickman, Hector Diaz,
Dave Engle, Bill Gibbs, Joe De-
pasquel, Howard Whitford, Rob
ert Treadwell, Powell Charlton and
Paul Lillard.
1-8 for the conference and 6-13
for the season.
The first half started off with
A&M taking a quick 7-3 lead on
the shooting of Bennie Lenox. The
Bears went ahead 8-7 with about
three minutes gone and from then
on neither team could, manage
more than a four point margin.
The Bears held their largest
lead 33-29 with seven minutes left
to play in the opening period. Then
A&M’s Bill Gasway hit three
straight baskets to give A&M the
lead they never lost.
The second half was a different
story, as the whistles were fewer
and the teams took the play away
from the referees.
Lenox, Bill Robinette and sopho
more Dick Stringfellow led the
Aggies rally in the second half.
Behind the shooting of Spencer
Carlson, the Bears kept within
reach of the taller Cadets until
midway in the final period.
The Aggies, almost playing the
entire bench, finally widened their
margin when Robinette hit a jump
shot from the right corner and
Lenox dropped in two free throws.
Baylor was hurt when Ed Horne
fouled out with eight minutes left
in the game. Despite the high
number of fouls, the Cadets lost
only one player. Stringfellow
went out with six seconds to play.
After gaining a respectable mar
gin, the Ag-gies went into a stall
with five minutes to play and pro
tected their lead until the final
gun.
Lenox led all Aggie point makers
with 27 tallies, Robinette posted
14 and Stringfellow had 14. Bay
lor’s Carlson was the game’s high-
point man with 28 and Horne
marked 14.
The Bears were hurt with the
absence of their leading scorer,
Winston Moore, who was on the
sidelines with a kidney infection.
The Aggie Fish dropped the pre
liminary tilt to the Cubs, 83-61.
Curley Lenox scored 14 points for
the Fish.
UIL Protest
Pro Grid TV
AUSTIN (A>) _ The director
of the Texas Interscholastic Lea
gue said Tuesday that Friday night
football telecasts could hurt the
financing of public school athle
tic programs.
The director, Rodney J. Kidd,
urged 700 school administrators to
protest the recently announced
contract calling for Friday night
telecasts of National Football Lea
gue games during the coming sea
son.
"The Friday night high school
games represent a long tradition
in the public schools and are their
chief source of income for support
of athletic programs,’’ Kidd said.
“The commercial telecast of pro
games are in direct conflict with
this. Friday is the one non-school
night available for high school
games,” Kidd said.
Kidd urged the administrators to
protest to the American Broad
casting Co., Ford Motor Co., the
NFL commissioner and Texas con
gressmen.

Navy’s Hardin Given New Pact
With New Salary, More Duties
ANNAPOLIS, Md. <A>) — Beat
ing Army five straight times paid
off Tuesday in a new contract,
new duties, and almost certain
ly a salary increase for Navy’s
football coach, Wayne Hardin.
The Academy said Hardin, 36,
signed a five-year contract which
makes him both coach and special
assistant to the assistant director
of athletics.
There was no announcement of
how much he will make under the
new contract, but it is believed
to be in the neighborhood of $19,-
000 a year.
The contract signing followed
one of the Academy’s best sea
sons. The Midshipmen won nine
of 10 regular season games — in
cluding that fifth straight over
Army — and wound up second
in the nation. This was followed
by a 28-6 defeat at the hands of
top-ranked Texas in the Cotton
Bowl game New Year’s Day.
“I’m very happy about the
contract,” Hardin said. “There’s
nothing much to say except that
I’m pleased.”
He said the new duties to as
sistant to E. E. Rip Miller would
primarily involve recruiting. But
he said he will be concerned with
all sports, not just football.
“We are extremely pleased with
the job Wayne Hardin has done
both on and off the field since
he first joined the football staff in
1955,” Capt. William Busik, di
rector of athletics, said.
Hardin, former College of Pa
cific halfback, joined the Navy
staff in 1955. He became head
coach in 1959 after Eddie Erdelatz
unexpectedly resigned. His teams
have won 35 games, lost 14 and
tied one.

Speaking of the Tuesday night struggle, fouls we

After the game was over, Mike Mistovich, KORA

offered his congratulations for winning the game.
“Thanks a lot Mike,” Shelby said. “And I wantti ^
