But not Aggie ramrod Joe Weiss. He took the 1964 Maroon opener against the Louisiana State Tigers almost with a grain of salt. “It’s not that I wasn’t nerv ous,” the former high school quarterback said. “I was tense, of course. Actually, I thought I would be so keyed up for the game that when it came I never felt the tension.” Weiss looks to the Houston Cougars this week with an eye of reservation, not really know ing what to expect in his second varsity contest. “I hear that the University of Houston always seems to play the Aggies like it was their toughest game of the year,” the iron- jawed soph pondered. ‘But I don’t know what to really look forward to. This is still new to Varsity football may be new to Weiss, but the bone-jarring blocks and crashing line plunges with his 6-4, 212-pound frame will be new to Cougar linemen, also. Just like they were to the LSU Bengals. Weiss collected 22 yards against the Tigers in six tries while being stopped only once for no gain. He also sprang teammate Eddie McKaughan loose for a long gain and helped halfback Jim Stabler into Tiger paydirt with his block ing. But blocking has become al most an obsession to the rangy fullback since he first donned the Maroon and White for the Aggies. Now he is respected for that extra bit of football finery that not many backs practice. “I got to like the idea of blocking about the fifth work out,” he recalled. “I knocked out an end a couple of times and since then the idea seemed to appeal to me.” Weiss said he gets just as much thrill and satisfaction out of blocking as carrying the ball. “I had just as soon put a good block on someone, knowing I had cleared the way for a back to gain five yards, than gaining that much myself,” he declares. Joe came to Aggieland after being sought by Texas and Rice. “I decided on A&M because I liked the coaches and the campus,” he remembers. Those are strange words com ing from a boy who played his high school ball at Pflugerville, a small town shadowed by the Uni versity of Texas Memorial Tower. The soft-spoken, 19-year-old got his start in football from his four older brothers, one of whom played quarterback for two years at Texas Lutheran. Apparently his beginning was good, because as he advanced through his high school years, quarterbacking the Panthers, he led the Pflugerville eleven! national high school record oif wins, with the string being in a Bi-District tilt Joe’s ssj year. That loss, coupled with LSU defeat and one his ftj man year at A&M, are then ones Joe has ever sustainei a football suit. His career r« for teams he has played withj I [ 211 £ stands at 59-3. So, with Weiss with the Aggl A&M may eventually set^ winner. X /y~,Tfr&eyJto AIV K iSmA-7 Is002.tt ® S005S1 FROZEN FOOD IOW PRICES 'tb 6uTfiozOtt il{£7<S?a£ CRISCO OIL 24-Oz. *\n Bot 0 4 C 38-Oz.

When the Giants came in fof ttheir last trip, Chris, the Met catcher, drove a fast ball tt left center in Masinori Murakami: one-inning relief effort for the Sat Francisco Giants. Chris called Masinori “sneaky fast.” The 20-year-old hurler struck out two of the four batten he faced.
