Schools represented were A&M; North Texas; Texas University; Baylor; Rice; St. Thomas, Hous ton; St. Edwards, Austin; and Hill Junior College, Hillsboro. The contest was witnessed by 4,000 spectators, a disappointing turnout. They saw the Cadets press the Rebels into 15 floor mis takes the first half. ASC began to fast break more the second half and it proved more effective than their controlled first half offense. Beasley was the scoring gun for the Cadets again. He garnered 27 points, all but five coming in the first half. He was followed by Ken Norman with 20 points. Norman played what might have been his best offensive game in an Aggie uniform. He hit several beautiful hook shots which were real crowd-pleasers. Paul Timmins had 15 points and turned in another excellent floor performance. Dickie Stringfellow played his best game of the year, racking up 12 points. Bill Gasway was the Ag rebounding leader with ten. For the third straight game, the Aggies hit over 50 per cent of their shots from the field. Also for the third time they were outrebounded by the opposing team. ASC held the board advantage, 52-42. The big gun for the Rebs was Bruce Tibbetsf, who sank 28 points and hailed in 12 rebounds. ASC has pos&ible the best team in their history but has been playing a murderous schedule. The crowd Saturday night was howling for 100, but the final score fell three points shy.

FROM THE Sidefi ined By LANI PRESSWOOD It’s a fast-moving- world and you have to learn to expect anything-. The announcement of a new head football coach at Aggieland caught me as surprised as everyone else. In fact, I’ve since talked with many people close to the athletic scene here and almost to a man they were admittedly caug-ht flatfooted. After the initial shock wears off, you begin to think about the new coach and the equipment he brings to this job. Gene Stallings is a winner. He played on winners at A&M and he coached winners at Alabama. He is approaching this new assignment with confidence. In his formal statement he used the word “challenge.” Stallings has faced challenges before and has met them head- on. One of them was right here at A&M. He was one of the now-famous group taken to Junction by Bear Bryant during Bryant’s first summer here. The large majority of those players walked out before the summer was over. Those that survived the training camp became the nucleus of the finest Aggie teams since pre-World War II days. Stallings was one of those that stuck it out. Others were guys like John Crow, Charlie Krueger and Jack Pardee. Only 29, the former all-conference end brings to A&M new hope. After three losing years under Hank Foldberg, enthusiasm for next fall was at a low ebb. A new coach, a new staff, and a new method always create fresh excitement and optimism. Stallings and his staff will take over their new jobs Monday and will hit the recruiting trail shortly. Championships are won during the recruiting season and Stallings will be out in earnest to restock the cupboard. The Athletic Council is to be commended for handling the turnover smoothly and swiftly. The move was not accompanied by the chaos, mistiming, and general bungling which have marked previous coaching changes. I’m glad that the Council decided to retain Foldberg as athletic director. The overall athletic program has flourished under his leadership. He has always impressed me as having the best interests of the school at heart. In his three years, the Lettermen’s Lounge was con structed, the A&M Athletic Hall of Fame was begun, and the level of scholarship among the athletes was upgraded. But he couldn’t produce a football winner and that is what you must do to remain in the coaching ranks at a major college. With Foldberg as overseer, and the young and enthusi astic Stallings as football coach, the A&M athletic picture now stands on its most promising threshold in years. r PARDNER You’lJ Always Win The Showdown When You Get Your Duds Done CAMPUS CLEANERS Lou pot's £ Clothing Shop ■ ■ NOW four more places you can pay your telephone bill iu ’->rK-,yr~~ r - r y y f . . .. : -• ' .
