FROM THE
ine&
By LAN I PRESS WOOD
Hank Foldberg’s weekly press conference Tuesday was
a more pleasant event than it has been in some time. The
warm glow of victory seemed to permeate Sbisa’s spacious
dining area.
The chefs even cooperated. The roast beef cut easier, the
fried potatoes were crisper, and the gravey seemed warmer.
The first question directed at the Cadet mentor con
cerned the quality of A&M’s play against the Ponies Satur
day. Foldberg’s answer may surprise some. He replied,” I
couldn’t single it out as our best single effort of the season.”
He elaborated on this as he added, “I will say this,
though, it was our best-coordinated game between our of
fense and defense. We didn’t give them the play that could
take away our initiative. Our defense created some of their
mistakes.”
Foldberg’s declining to flatly label the SMU game the
year’s best for the Aggies is significant. A 23-0 victory after
seven straight setbacks would seem to justify such a con
clusion.
In the dressing room after the game, however, most of
the Cadet gridmen similarly hedged at such a statement.
The phrase “one of our best” was heard almost to a man.
In the same dressing room Foldberg said, “We’ve played
like this all year, it’s just that nothing serious happened to
us this time.”
The point was emphasized when the players themselves
echoed these same sentiments. It is further supported by the
memory of four games this fall which the Ags dropped by
less than six points.
Several Aggies who performed well in those games were
also singled out by Foldberg for their play in the Mustang
contest. The familiar names of Joe Wellborn, Mike Pitman,
and Ronney Moore were recited.
“I though Ed Breding and Harvey Ermis had a fine ball
game. Sherman DeBusk was in the thick of it too. Our entire
secondary did a fine job.”
Punter Phil Scoggin’s name was brought up and it was
revealed that Scoggin had etched his name in the Aggie
record book with his sharp punting Saturday. He finished
the previous single game high of 47.1 set against LSU in
1947.
The Aggie taskmaster later turned to the subject of the
Rice Owls, the next Cadet opponent. “Rice has a real solid
ball club defensively. They’re a good football team. We’ll
have trouble moving the ball on them.
“They must have the two biggest linebackers in the
world.”

Depend On Sophs
For SWC Finale
By BOB SPIVEY
Asst. Sports Editor
The sophomore-dominated Ag
gie Cross Country Team will
journey to Austin Monday for
the annual Southwest Conference
Meet. The meet will begin at 1
p.m.
The Aggie contingent will be
led by Danny Clifton, from Valley
View. He won the regional mile
three straight years and set rec
ords his last two. He won the
state Class B mile his senior year.
The 5’ 9”, 142-pound sopho
more’s best time for the mile
in high school was 4:29.0. He says
“I prefer to run the longer dis
tance compared to the mile. In
longer distances training and en
durance can come to the front.”
Teammate Don Smith tied Clif
ton at the Dallas meet for third
place. Smith hails from Fort
Worth Arlington Heights.
The 5’ 10”, 145-pounder placed
second in the 1963 Class AAAA
cross country and fifth in the
State Class AAAA mile. He was
the number two man on the Fish
Cross Country team last year.
Geoffrey Earl, from Midland
lee, will be trying to regain the
form he displayed in high school
and the early part of last sea
son. He had a case of mononu
cleosis his freshman year and has
been hampered by leg injuries
this year. He is expected to be
in top form for the Austin meet.
While in high school Earl won
the State Class AAAA mile and
the cross country run. His time
for the mile was 4:20.2. He also
ran the 880 yard dash in 1:58.0
and the 440 in 50.8.
The fourth member of the
squad is Bob Smith from El
Paso. His best time for the mile
in high school was 4:30.0.
The only junior on the squad
is Gene Westmoreland from La-
mesa. The 5’ 9”, 155-pounder
trackster was State Class AAA
880 champion in 1961-62. He set
a state record in the 880 of 1:52.8.
Gene had a operation and missed
most of last season. He has been
coming along steadily this year.
The Ag harriers have posted a
3-3 record to date. They have
defeated Baylor twice and won
the Dallas tri-meet. They drop
ped the A&M Invitational, The
University of Texas Invitational
and a dual event with the Uni
versity of Houston.
COACH CHARLES THOMAS
. .. sends his seventh Ag squad to SWC meet.
The cross country squad, like
the majority of A&M’s varsity
teams, is in a rebuilding period
and is made up largely of sopho
mores. All of the harriers but
Westmoreland are in this cate
gory.
As freshmen last year this
crew had a perfect record. They
were undefeated in five meets.
Their stiffest competition Mon
day will probably come from the
veteran University of Texas
squad.
Varsity Holds Off Freshmen,
Next Scrimmage November 14
The Aggie varsity basketball-
ers were pressed before warding
off their freshman counterparts,
70-67, Friday afternoon.
The intrasquad scrimmage was
played under game conditions,
complete with officials and a clock.
The varsity was handicapped by
the loss of starters Tim Timmer
man and John Beasley, who were
held out because of sickness.
It was the second of five pre
season scrimmages which have
been set by Coach Shelby Metcalf.
In the first match, the varsity tri
umphed, 93-74.
The contests are held in G.
Rollie White Coliseum and the pub
lic is invited. The next one will
be November 14 at 9 a.m.
