THE BATTALION
Aggies Hammer USM, 83-70
By LANI PRESSWOOD
HATTIESBURG, MISS. — The
tremendous shooting touch of big
John Beasley and the playmaking
of Paul Timmins paced the Aggies
to a convincing 83-70 win over
Southern Mississippi here Thurs
day night.
Beasley garnered 38 points and
pulled down 20 rebounds in a per
formance which stunned an over
flow crowd of close to 4,000. Tim
mins collected 15 points and drib
bled circles around the Southern
defenders all night.
The Southerners stayed close for
a half and trailed by a single point
at halftime. Beasley reeled off
eleven straight points after inter
mission and within three minutes
and 22 seconds had shot the Cadets
into a ten-point lead.
USM never came closer than
eight points after that. With 3:36
left, guard Dickie Stringfellow hit
a driving layup which hiked the
Ag margin to 17 points, the widest
spread of the game.
Rain was falling out of the dark
Mississippi night when the contest
began. The packed house watched
the Aggies race to a quick 6-0 lead
at the start of the game.
With 15:12 left in the half, the
Cadets had padded their advantage
to 13-4. Then the Southerners be
gan chipping away the Maroon
lead. Bruce Miller sank a pair of
free shots to knot the score at 26-
26 with 13:03 showing on the clock.
The rest of the half was a nip
and tuck affair. The score was
tied three times and the lead
changed hands twice. USM pulled
ahead by one point with seven min
utes to go for their only lead of
the ball game. The halftime score
was 41-40.
The second half was a different
story. In it the Aggies flashed the
form which carried them to the
Southwest Conference crown last
season.
Beasley’s early spurt put the
Southerners in a hole they were
never able to climb out of. Last
year’s SWC Sophomore-of-the-Year
was deadly with his long, soft
jumpers. 24 of his 38 points came
in the second half.
With four minutes left, the Ca
dets shifted into their stall game.
They were ahead by 15 at the time.
The freeze was effective as the
frantic Southerners were able to
shave only two points off the Ma
roon lead.
Timmins, the fiery Aggie cap
tain, was sharp and smooth as he
quarterbacked the Cadets to their
first win of the young season. The
Ags dropped an 83-72 decision to
Memphis State Tuesday night.
Stringfellow collected nine points
and Bill Gasway contributed nine
to the Aggie total. The steady
Maroon forward also pulled down
eight rebounds and held high scor
ing Gary Hannan to five points.
Guard Gary Kochersperger paced
the Southerners with 16.
The Cadets sank 50.8% of their
shots from the field while USM
made 30.8%. The Southerners out-
rebounded A&M, 47-44.
Gasway fouled out late in the
game, as did three Southerners.
Guard Dick Rector required four
stitches to patch up a cut eye in
curred in the first half.
The first A&M home game of
the season is set for Saturday
night at G. Rollie White Coliseum.
Arlington State’s Rebels will fur
nish the opposition.

mins also played an outstanding
game.
A&M hit over 50% in both en
counters. Their rebounding totals
fell short in both contests, how
ever. 8,700 watched the Memphis

nearly 4,000 was on hand for the

He used to be the bearer of news—both good
and bad. And he announced the merchandise
available in the various places of business.
Newspapers have long since replaced him.
He would cry the hour night and day for he
was timekeeper to the town. Clocks and wrist-
watches crowded him out of our life.
But when he announced the hour he liked to
reassure his neighbors: “’Tis three o’clock—and
all’s well!” Why has no one taken up this func
tion in our modern world?
Probably because no one is certain that all
is well. And because merely saying that all is
well doesn’t calm our fears or lighten our con-

More and more we are coming to realize that
our crucial need is spiritual. Men are seeking
truth and power in the faith and worship of our
churches. With each passing hour it becomes
more evident that all will be well only when
ALL discover God.
