Aggies Stun Ponies, 94 - 81!
Beasley Scores 38 To Pace Cadet Upset
BEAS AT THE LINE
John set four new records against SMU.
By LANI PRESSWOOD
Sports Editor
A&M used a blistering first half
attack to deal the league-leading
SMU Mustangs a stunning 94-81
upset and throw the SWC race in
to chaos Tuesday night.
The Aggies threatened to blast
the Ponies out of G. Rollie White
Coliseum as they steamed to a 54-
33 halftime lead. SMU rallied aft
er intermission but the Aggies re
fused to be caught.
John Beasley set the pace for
the Aggies by pouring through 38
points and shattering scoring rec
ords like they were going out of
style. The 6-9 center set three
new school marks and a SWC sea
son record of 368 points as he con
tinued his torrid late-season scor
ing pace.
The Cadets started out hot and
stayed that way most of the night.
Paul Timmins meshed a 20-foot
jump to give the Ags the advan
tage at 19:33 of the first half and
Shelby Metcalf’s crew was never
headed from that point on.
With Beasley, Timmins, and
Dick Rector stoking the fire the
A&M lead continued to mount un
til cresting at 48-23 with 3:09 left
in the half.
The sophomorish Ponies settled
down after intermission and chip
ped away at the Maroon lead un
til they narrowed it to nine at 73-
64 with 7:34 left. The Aggies then
called time and regained their grip
on the game.
At 4:36 A&M shifted into their
delay game and from there on the
two clubs battled evenly until the
final buzzer.
The loss was a bitter one for the
Mustangs who dropped back into
a tie with Texas for the SWC lead
with one game to go. Both quin
tets now own 8-4 records.
If they are still deadlocked after
Thursday night’s action they will
meet in a playoff Saturday to de
termine who represents the con
ference in the NCAA tournaments
Cold shooting in the first half
doomed Doc Hayes’ charges to
eventual defeat. The Mustangs hit
only 27.8 per cent of their first
round attempts and wound up with
a 39.4 reading.
A&M bombed the nets at a 54.1
per cent clip the first twenty min
utes and wound up with a 48.6
total.
The Aggies outmuscled SMU on
the boards, 51-44. Beasley set the
pace there too by pulling in 18.
Carroll Hooser snared 11 to lead
SMU.
A&M had two other performers
in double figures besides Beasley.
Timmins, who made his last home
appearance a memorable one,
scored 19 and played a fine all
round game before fouling out
with nearly six minutes left.
Rector hit 15 points for the eve
ning and played a hustling floor
game.
“We played a great first half
then hit a little slump,” remarked
Ag Handballers
Slaughter Rice
The A&M Handball Team won
17 out of 19 matches to defeat the

Olds Jetstar 88 really cuts it, come exam
time. Test it out on action first.
This baby can put down 315 horses, eager to
go anywhere. Now score it on ride:
whip-cream smooth, thanks to four coil springs
and other goodies. Now room:
stretch yourself in interiors that say
"SB OLDSMOB0LE
below 30 models with "low-price” names.
Actually, these tests are
hardly fair to the other thirty . . .
Olds is in a class by itself!
