management which would qualify
him for a career in banking, in
surance, etc., but he has a han
kering to be a football coach,
preferably at the college level.
Nichols, a 22-year-old senior,
was a pretty fair country quar
terback at Class A San Augus
tine High back in 1960, his senior
season. But, when the college re
cruiting swing was over he’d had
only two offers, from TCU and
Sam Houston State.
“My school superintendent
wrote to coach Shorty Hughes
who was on the A&M staff and
sent him a film of one of our
games in which I had passed
pretty well,” Nichols recalls.
“Anyway, I received a four-year
scholarship at A&M on my po
tential as a passing-running
quarterback.”
But, in his freshman year he
was moved to halfback and didn’t
play too much. He was held out
of action the next season and saw
a little duty his sophomore year.
Last year he specialized as a de
fensive halfback and this year he

has been the Aggies’ safety.
About the switch from quar
terback to the defensive secon
dary, Nichols says “I like it.
There’s a lot of pressure on you
back there and you have to react
quickly but I like it.”
Nichols almost broke loose for
a touchdown on a punt return
against Houston in the fourth pe
riod. He took the punt on the
A&M 36 and returned it 33 yards
to the Houston 21 but the Aggies
were flagged down for clipping
and wound up back at the Hous
ton 36.
“I though I might go all the
way,” Nichols said. “When I first
got over behind that wall of
blockers I sorta thought I might
make it all the way.” He made
a great second effort on the run
as he was knocked off balance
but regained his footing after
holding himself off the turf with
his free hand.
Nichols is quick to answer the
question: What is making the
big difference in the Aggies’ per
formances this season? “The big
difference is effort. We have
less material than last year and
not much natural ability on our
squad.
Coach Gene Stallings says that
senior leadership is one of the
great assets on his club this year.
Nichols is one of those seniors.

AND
GOD
Gary was three years old the other day. We
took him as a birthday treat for his first trip to
the zoo. He dearly loved all of the animals, but
the peak of adventure was the elephants. His
eyes shone as he watched the great gray trunks
snuffle and find his bravely flung peanuts, then
stuff them into giant crunching jaws.
“Oh,” he breathed adoringly, “elephants are
big... as big as God!”
His arm tightened around my neck as he
leaned to throw more nuts to his jumbo friends
and I hugged him close, glad that already he has
learned to see God everywhere.
I, myself, was almost grown before I realized
God’s “ever-presence” and the strength this
knowledge brings, so it has been a great joy to
watch the awareness of this truth develop early
in my son.
Why don’t you go to your church and take
your child with you? It is the most important
experience you can share with him.
THE CHURCH FOR ALL.
The Church is the greatest factor
on earth for the building of charac
ter and good citizenship. It is a store
house of spiritual values. Without a
strong Church, neither democracy
nor civilization can survive. There
are four sound reasons why every
person should attend services regu-
ALL FOR THE CHURCH
larly and support the Church. They
are: (1) For his own sake. (2) For
his children’s sake. (3) For the sake
of his community and nation. (4)
For the sake of the Church itself,
which needs his moral and material
support. Plan to go to chinch regu
larly
'ly and read your Bible daily.

Arkansas, Texas Prepared
For Winner-Take-All Game
By LARRY R. JERDEN
Battalion Sports Editor
For the national standings and
most of the football public, the
biggest game of the year takes
place in Fayetteville, Arkansas
Saturday afternoon when the
’Horns and Hogs tangle on the
gridiron.
The fans are going through all
kinds of pre-game rituals and
guesswork, playing with past
records and statistics to try and
guess which of these two will
emerge the winner of this winner-
take-all affair.
Besides winning the game, the
victor will most likely come out
National Champions, Southwest
Conference Champions, and the
coach has an excellent chance of
being Coach of the Year. Add
to this the eyes of the nation via
TV and an over-capacity crowd,
and the stage is set for grid ac
tion at its greatest.
Both teams are undefeated in
action this year, and Arkansas
brings the nation’s longest maj
or-college winning streak into the
game, 16 in all. Texas has won
25 out of their last 26, the lone
exception being last year’s Ark
ansas match.
Statistically, its as nip-and-
tuck as a game can be prior to
the opening kick-off. Arkansas
has the SWC’s number one and
two rushing leaders in Harry
Jones and Bobby Burnett. If the
Horns can stop Jones from reach
ing his 9 yards rushing average,
Burnett can still pick up a first
down every three times he totes

the ball. Jones net so far is 386
and Burnett has 328 to his credit.
Phil Harris poses a threat on
the ground for Texas and he has
223 yards to prove it with a 5.1
yard per carry average.
Texas leads the SWC in total
offense with a 364.3 to 327.7 lead
over the Hogs, while Arkansas’
defense has limited all opposi
tion to 200.5 yards per game.
The Steers are right on their
heels with 208.5.
One of the surprises of the
year in the Texas camp is Mar
vin Kristynik, who has developed
into a fine passer, though his
throws wobble, and an able field
general. They, of course, have
Tommy Nobis, but there is noth
ing that hasn’t been said for him.
Lloyd Phillips is a defensive
standout for Arkansas, along with
Jack Brasuell at safety who is
doing a surprising job of filling
Ken Hatfield’s shoes. Brasuell
has returned eight punts for
129 yards, and his services may be
needed to combat David Conway,
the conference’s leading punter.
Conway has a lengthy 43.5 yard
average for 20 boots.
The name of the game is
to score, and the Hogs are well
equipped in that department.
Burnett and Jones are tied for
the lead to total points with five
TD’s each for 60 points.
And at least all this will give
the Aggies something to do be
tween the parade and the game
