Fish Harris sprints for Fish score after receiving a pass. C-S United Chest Still Behind Goal With two days left to achieve the $19,000 goal, the College Sta tion United Chest fund campaign had raised $14,620 Wednesday. The receipts represented 77 per cent of the goal and meant that $4,380 must be pledged or contrib uted Thursday and Friday to achieve success in the 10-day drive. R. L. Hunt Jr., campaign di rector, urged that the volunteer workers “put on the steam” the remaining days. “We’ll make it,” he assured, “but we must work every moment avail able through Friday.” Chest leaders appealed to com munity residents to “rise to the Graduate Council Plans Banquet The graduate students are plan ning a banquet Friday as part of the expanding program of the Graduate Student Council, presi dent Herb Ernest announced. The banquet is one of several activities of the less than year-old council organized as an advisory group and to plan social events. Ernst said it is hoped the banquet will become an annual event. University officials and graduate faculty will join graduate students and thier wives for the 7:30 p.m. banquet in the Memorial Student Center. The humorous and in spirational Houston minister, the Rev. W. P. Deatherage, will be the speaker. He is pastor of the Sec ond Christian Church, Houston.

Eight Texas A&M depart ments also surpassed their 1963 gifts. The Agricultural Stablization and Conservation Service set the standard for giving with all of its 86 employes contributing. This is the largest single unit reporting 100 percent participation. The community of College Sta tion continues to fall behind the University in support of the United Chest which backs 15 agencies. However, 100 percent units were reported from both the campus and community. All employes of the Fidelity Union Life Insurance Company and the Aggieland Studio gave one day’s pay to the cam paign.

By LANI PRESSWOOD Assistant Sports Editor FORT WORTH—The Aggie Fish dropped their opener, 40-21, to TCU’s Wogs Wednesday night in a harum-scarum football thriller that kept a crowd of 20,000 roaring right up to the final gum The contest saw nine touchdowns scored and over 600 yards gained from scrimmage. The scoreboard in Amon Car ter Stadium was lit up in every quarter as both teams moved up and down the field with reckless abandon. TCU methodically drove 52, 48, 68, and 74 yards for TD’s and cashed in on a pair of fumble recoveries for their point total. The Fish scored on a 37-yard sustained drive engineered by quarterback Gary Kemph, a pass interception, and a spectacular 58-yard pass play from Gene Harvey to Rusty Harris. Three other drives ended in futility at the 17, 21, and 4-yard lines. A&M’s first half offense was spearheaded by Kemph. The 180- pound signal-caller displayed poise, quickness, and a fine passing arm. His rollout for 11 yards produced the game’s first touchdown. The key to Wog success in both halves was the blocking up front. Time and time again Purple backs rambled through gaping holes. Coach Dick Johnson’s Fish struck early in the second half. The Wogs held an 18-7 lead and their ace quarterback P. D. Shabay tried to pass deep in his own terri tory. Giant Fish tackle Howard Van Loon crashed through to de flect the ball and end Mac Smith intercepted it 23 yards from the goal line. He raced into the end zone untouched. The game’s most explosive play occurred with 6:45 left in the third quarter. Fish quarterback Gene Harvey fired a sideline pass to speedster Rusty Harris who shook of two Wogs and streaked in to paydirt. Penalties and mistakes at crucial moments plagued the Fish all night. The game was wide open and a break or two could have easily reversed the outcome. Center E. A. Gresham and Sha bay were the mainstays for the Wogs. Several Fish were highly im pressive. Quarterbacks Kemph and Harvey both moved the ball club well. Harris was the fatests man on the field. On defense, Van Loon, guard Jerry Brasuel, and linebacker Robert Cortez, all provided yeo man service. ★ ★ ★ Freshmen Can Score FORT WORTH—The 20,000 fans who witnessed the Fish-TCU Wog tilt here Wednesday night saw something they rarely observe— a touchdown duel. These supporters have watched their respective varsity favorites accumulate only 27 points in six outings this year, so Wednesday night offered them a change in routine. TCU’s upperclassmen have tal lied nine points in three games, while the varsity Aggies have notched 18 in three contests. A TCU supporter, noting the difference, said, “We’ve had such a drouth, it certainly is good to win one, even if it is the Wogs. I mean football, basketball, track, everything.” And the fans—highly partisan to the Wogs—did whoop it up while the scoreboard was kept busy ring ing up touchdown after touchdown. When it was all over, the Amon Carter lights flashed 40 points for the Wogs, 21 for the Fish. And the scorekeepers lef t the stadium thanking Him that the scoreboard didn’t break when the home score exceeded 7.

IT’S BECOMING A HABIT Fish Harvey makes one of six Aggie Fish kickoff returns. ALONG THE CAMPAIGN TRAILS Barry’s Voting Record Slammed By Humphrey By The Associated Press dared Wednesday night that Sen. Barry Goldwater’s record in Con gress shows he is “neither a Re publican nor a conservative.” This .record, Humphrey said at an outdoor rally in Ashtabula, Ohio, has found the Republican presidential nominee voting again st his party’s position on every one of 25 major issues adopted in the GOP platform in 1960. Goldwater “is a radical, not a conservative and he’d rather be right than Republican, at least as far as the 1960 platform de fined the policies of the party,” Humphrey said. “Radical Goldwaterism does not equate with responsible Republi- NSF Summer Fellowships Open For Graduate Study The National Science Founda tion again will offer summer fel lowships for secondary school teachers of science and mathe matics providing for up to three summers of individual study at the graduate level, C.

The fellow ships may be held at several uni versities. “These fellowships are for secon dary school teachers who have had at least three years of teaching experience in science or mathe matics and who wish to improve their competence as teachers by further graduate level work in science subject matter study during the summer,” Loyd said.

The Goldwaterites have, in short, kidnapped the conserva tive tradition but are using it to mask a radical assault upon the very fabric of the American com munity.” Goldwater hammered hard Wed nesday for morality in government and law and order in the streets, pledging personal leadership in a war on crime. The Republican presidential can didate stressed these twin themes as he stumped for votes in New Jersey, lashing out also at the growing concentration of power in Washington. He rapped President Lyndon B. Johnson for slogans saying: “We have heard of and seen many wars in the time of the present administration. But have we yet heard of the only needed war — the war against crime?” President Johnson said Wednes day he is going to ask for im provements in the Social Security law and “maybe sooner than you think.” The President dropped this re mark to a crowd at Peoria, 111. Later he told reporters who ask ed about it, “I meant just what I said.” “After Jan. 3?” a reporter in quired. “I didn’t say that,” the President replied. Johnson said he considers im provement of the Social Security program a matter of highest prior ity. He declared in the corn belt earlier in the day that there are those in the land whose policies would wreck and bankrupt the Social Security system and one farmer out of every five. Johnson hammered away on bread basket and pocketbook is sues, on peace, prosperity and re sponsibility — and on Republi can presidential nominee Barry Goldwater, but not by name.
