THE BATTALION
Roimdballers Open Season Tonight
Memphis State
Challenges
SWC Champs
MEMPHIS—The Aggie Basket
ball team opens its 1964-65 season
Tuesday night here against the
Tigers of Memphis State.
The defending Southwest Con
ference Champions journey to Hat
tiesburg to play Southern Mis
sissippi Thursday night.
A&M Coach Shelby Metcalf will
probably start an all-letterman
five against the Tigers. A likely
John Beasley at center, Dickie
Stringfellow and Paul Timmins at
guards and Ken Norman and Bill
Gasway at the forward slots.
Pollsters have in general placed
the Cadets third or fourth in the
SWC in pre-season guess-work Tex
as Tech is the consensus favorite
to take the title.
The biggest question mark sur
rounding the Maroons is finding
a replacement for Bennie Lenox.
The departed sharpshooter holds
virtually every Aggie scoring rec
ord.
A&M has to prove that it can
score without the help of the Clear
Creek bomber. The most likely
heir to Lenox's scoring leader
ship is Beasley.
The 6’ 9” junior possesses a
deadly jump shot from anywhere
on the court. He was voted Sopho-
more-of-the-Year in the conference
last year by several selectors.
Captain of the squad is Tim
mons, a battle-tested senior. He
teams with Stringfellow to provide
the Ags with sure ball handling
and sharp shooting. These two will
compose the scrappiest backcourt
combo in the league.
Redshirt sophomore Dick Rector
and transfer Eddie Dominguez will
substitute for these two. Tim
Timmerman will sub in for both
forward and center, depending on
who goes out.
This game will be a challenge
to the veteran Aggies. Memphis
State is annually a national power
and plays in the National Inter
collegiate Tournament almost regu
larly.
Metcalf terms them a running
team, saying, “They’ll probably
have the best fast break we’ll
see all year.”
The Tigers, always tough at
home, will be extra rugged for
this encounter. They will be de
dicating a new fieldhouse, and
13,000 fans are expected to fill
it.
KORA is scheduled to broadcast
the contest, starting at 8:30 p.m.
College Station time.

Cadet Defense Collapses, 26 - 7
By LANI PRESSWOOD
For a half the Aggies played
Texas even. For three-quarters
it was anybody’s ball game. But
when the final gun sounded the
Steers had prevailed for the
eighth straight year—26-7.
65,000 sun - drenched fans
viewed the Thanksgiving Day
clash in Austin’s Memorial Sta
dium.
They saw a fierce, hard-hitting
game typical of this ancient riv
alry. It was a closer contest
than the scoreboard margin
would seem to indicate.
The heavily underdog Cadets
thoroughly dominated the first
half of play. The score at in
termission was 7-7, but the statis
tics favored the Aggies in vir
tually every department.
The Longhorns drew first blood
six minutes deep in the first
period. Stubby quarterback Mar
vin Kristynik wedged a yard over
the left side of his line for the
score. The six-pointer was set
up by a 24-yard pass interference
call which put Texas on the
A&M one.
The Aggies threatened to tie
the score moments later, but half
back Jim Stabler’s pass from the
six-yard line was picked off in
the end zone by linebacker Tom
my Nobis.
A&M did strike pay dirt mid
way of the second period after an
89-yard sustained drive which ate
up eight minutes and 35 seconds.
Sophomore field general Eddie
McKaughan engineered the 18-
play march.
Big Joe Weiss churned two
yards for the touchdown.
The last two quarters belonged
to Texas. Late in the thrid
stanza the Steers accepted a two-
point gigt from the Ags. From
the 23, Tom Murrah centered the
ball over punter Phil Scoggin’s
head into the end zone. Scoggin
retrieved the ball, but the play
resulted in a safety for Texas.
Two minutes later David Con
way booted a 42-yard field goal
to hike the margin to 12-7. That’s
how matters stood until Texas
rammed across two tallies in the
last two minutes and 24 seconds
of play. One came on a two-yard
scamper by Hix Green, the other
on a 10-yard pass from Jim Hud
son to Garry Brown.
A faulty scoreboard clock made
it impossible to tell when the last
touchdown was registered. How
ever, after Conway’s successful
conversion, the officials signaled
that the game had ended.
The Cadets battled right down
to the wire in this one, as they
have done all year. Thus ends
a season of heartbreak and frus
tration for a team which deserved
a better fate.
The verdict left Coach Hank
Foldberg’s charges with a final
season record of 1-9. The Orange
Bowl-bound Longhorns finished
the campaign with a 9-1 record.
