It’s doubtful that any college
oach meets with the press more
than Texas A&M's Gene Stall
ings. He holds short press confer-
nces each afternoon following
ractice, bringing the news
nedia up to date on squad prog-
m, and will hold a weekly news
onference at 1:30 p.m. on Tues-
ays in the Lettermen’s Lounge
ocated on the ground floor of G.
tollie White Coliseum. First of
he Tuesday sessions is scheduled
or next week. . . .
A&M awards no special gear
or “hitters” such as colored hel-
nets, badges, etc., but wearing a
naroon jersey in practice signi-
ies first-team status. “That ma-
oon jersey means a lot,” says
lefensive end Jerry Kachtik of
Kio Hondo, “because when you
war one you know you’ve earned
t. You get what you deserve
from our coaches.” . . . Sopho-
nores Harry Ledbetter of Breck-
nridge, who’ll start at quarter-
iack against LSU, is a mature,
loised youngster. He’s married
ind has two small daughters. . . .
Tackle Jack Pybum says Ark-
nsas’ defensive line was the
ardest to block last season sim-
>ly “because they were the quick-
st.” Then he adds, “We’re gonna
e a lot quicker this year, too.”
|i Dude McLean, starting split
nd for the Aggies played in the
ame backfield with Texas Tech’s
)onnie Anderson at Stinnett
ligh. They won the state cham-
lionship. . . .
Tom Hurrah isn’t the first of
lis family to play guard for the
Iggies. His uncle, W. E. (Cap)
rfurrah, was an all-SWC guard

at A&M in 1919 and 1920. . . .
Phil Scoggin, punting specialist
from Denison, played one year
of junior college football for
Murray Aggies at Tishomingo,
Okla., where he was a lineback
er. .. .
The Aggies will be well repre
sented at the pre-game coin toss
in Baton Rouge Saturday night.
Coach Stallings has named all
seniors on the starting offensive
and defensive units to serve as
game captains in the 1965 open
er .. . Basketballer John Reyn
olds of Possum Walk, Tex., isn’t
the only newcomer to A&M foot
ball this year. SWC 440-yard
dash record holder Ted Nelson is
a candidate for split end. The
Andrews, Tex., senior gives the
position great speed and will
force foes into double coverage
most of the time. . . .
Starting tackle John Nilson of
El Campo and Pyburn really
earned their scholarships at
A&M. Nilson arrived without a
scholarship and Pyburn, of
Shreveport, had a one - year,
make-good pact. . . . Asked if
there had been any temper dis
plays during practice this year,
linebacker Joe Wellborn of Tom-
ball told writers, “Oh, there have
been some flare-ups but every
one was too tired to fight.” . . .
On moving Eddie McKaughan
to defensive halfback, Coach
Stallings said, “Ledbetter and
McKaughan are two of our better
athletes and we didn’t want eith
er to be sitting on the bench.” . . .
McKaughan still is the No. 2 of
fensive quarterback.
Texas A&M’s excellent academic
reputation provided the Aggies
with their largest football player
on the 1965 varsity squad.
He is Jack Pyburn, a six-foot,
six-inch, 225-pounder, from Byrd
High in Shreveport, La. He’ll be
at an offensive tackle post Sat
urday night when the Aggies
kick off the 1965 season against
the LSU Tigers in Baton Rouge.
Why did Pybum pick Texas
A&M?
“Purely academic,” is his two-
word explanation.
“I wanted to become an archi
tect and A&M had a good archi
tectural school. And, you know, it
has become bigger and better
since I arrived.”
How did he, a Louisiana
schoolboy, get away from the
LSU Tigers?
“Well, LSU didn’t offer me a
football scholarship,” he explains.
“They did offer a one-year track
scholarship and Tulane offered a
four-year track scholarship.”
Pybum says he wasn’t any
thing special as a high school
football player. “I didn’t make
the first team until I was a sen
ior.” But, his team went to the
state finals his senior year, post
ing a 10-2 record along the way.
His size was a hindrance when
he wanted to start football in the
seventh grade. Shreveport had
teams that were set up by age

He finally got to play on the

But, in track, he set a state

He quickly had that “one-year,
