Page 6 THE BATTALION College Station, Texas Tuesday, October 19, 1965 Ags Beaten Back By Stubborn Frogs By LARRY R. JERDEN Battalion Sports Editor The Aggies almost made a beautiful comeback Saturday night in Fort Worth against Learn Europe from behind the counter. 25000 JOBS IN EUROPE Luxembourg-Each student applicant receives a $250 tra vel grant and a paying job in Europe such as office, fac tory, sales, resort, farm work, etc. Send $ 2 .(for handling and airmail) to Dept.

TCU had built up a 10-3 lead by the end of the third quarter, and early in the fourth had driv en down to the Aggie 16 before having a field goal attempt par tially blocked by speedster Ted Nelson. The dauntless Aggies were a long 80 yards from pay dirt with 8:13 left, and their earlier offen sive efforts had given little indi cation they would be able to make the long march. But march they did. They used five passes to cover 63 of the needed yards, including the last 21 on a crucial fourth- and-ten. The winning combina tion was Harry Ledbetter to Ken McLean, with the greatest drama yet to come. After the game, Head Coach Gene Stallings said there was no doubt as to what choice to make, and TCU mentor Abe Martin said he would have done the same thing. But it didn’t work, that two point try, and with the in terception, the game was as good as over for the Cadets. A&M had taken the initial lead in the second quarter when they capitalized on an intercepted P. D. Shabay pass and turned it into three points. Grady Allen snag ged the pass. Four plays later Glynn Lindsay booted the pigskin through the uprights from the 26 to put the Ags ahead. A&M received the second half kick-off, but held the ball only two plays before Larry Perry dropped on a Farmer fumble on the Maroon 10. It took TCU only three plays to push over for the game’s first TD, all of them dashes by Steve Landon. The Frog’s top runner cracked the Aggie line from the one to score. TCU drove 55 yards in 13 plays later in the quarter with Bruce Alford kicking an 18 yard field goal for the score that eventually proved the winning margin. Though the Frogs added another TD in the closing minutes, had the Aggies scored the two point er, they should have been able to hold TCU. Since they didn’t, they had to gamble again. The final gamble came after an onside kick failed and TCU punted to the Aggie 17. Ledbet ter ran for three, then threw two incomplete passes and was penal ized five yards. With fourth and 12 the Cadets went for broke. With a shade over two minutes left it was the only decision that would have any meaning. Led better went to pass, but was dropped for a seven yard loss, and TCU took over on the A&M 8. The subsequent “drive” took two plays and the Frogs posted another seven points. Longhorns Bow To Amazing Hogs By LARRY R. JERDEN Battalion Sports Editor It’s a long, long way from Fay etteville, Arkansas, to Austin, Texas, especially if you have just been rooted from your number one standing for the second year in a row by the same team. It’s a long, long way from Fayetteville to Austin, when a TU fan can hear nothing but “Soooey Pigs” for 500 miles and knows that the Hogs have just emerged the 27-24 victors of the game of the year. mmmmsm RAMBLIN DAN EYES EXTRA YARDAGE Dan Schneider, Aggie Fullback, breaks for against the Frogs. Blocks are thrown by a few yards against TCU Saturday night. Robert Barnett (69) and Jim Singleton(57). Schneider averaged 3.7 for 13 carries And it’s a helluva long way from those hills in Arkansas to that unlighted tower in Austin, especially when your undefeated Steers have just been humbled by a Razorback team many consid ered to be a “paper tiger” be cause of an “easier schedule.” Coming out on top of statistics is the hollowest of victories, come-from-behind effort is next to meaningless, the score tells the tale. Arkansas 27, Texas 24. TU managed to give the pig skin away four times, twice on fumbles and twice on intercep- tiofts. Both of the fumbles were by Phil Harris, and both were converted to TD’s by the Preco cious Pigs The 42,000 in-person fans and the TV millions alike were shocked, either happily or other wise, when the Porkers built up a 20-0 lead. They returned to reality with the Horns recovery by halftime to lessen the margin to 20-11. It was a continuation of the TU recovery program after the half, and they finally managed to lead 21-20. David Conway kicked three long field goals, the last putting the Horns up 24-20. SALLEE NABBED FROM BEHIND Ag wingback Bill Sallee is stopped after a night’s TCU game, short gain by a big hand from the back and for the evening, an enclosure of purple jerseys in Saturday Sallee netted 26 yards John Brittenum was the man of the hour for Arkansas as he made the previous three-and-a- half quarters seem just so much tearing up of turf. He drove the Hogs eighty yards against a fu tile, befuddled Steer defense, per sonally going over for the win ning score with 1:32 left in tilt game. So Texas is now number five, Arkansas number one, and only North Texas and the Aggiei stand between Arkansas and tke SWC’s longest winning streak, Minlctfcl Supply 'PldLufee* Aowuei- 92S Sa Col U Av« - 5 ry«K,Ti*<*f Melvin H.

The rumors you’ve heard about a couple of new Volkswagens are absolutely true. There they are, on the top of this advertisement. The rumors you've heard about the beetle biting the dust are absolutely false. There it is, at the bottom of it all. We're calling the Volkswagen on top the Fastback Sedan because the roof has a nice slope to it. It holds 5 in style. We're calling the Volkswagen in the middle the Squareback Sedan because its roof has no slope at all. It holds 5, too. With less style, maybe, but with more extra space than most sedans, even big ones. Looks aside, the Fastback and the Squareback are identical cars, and as Volkswageny as can be. (Why not? They’re made in the same plant by the same people.) Their engines are more powerful than the beetle's, but still in back and still air-cooled. Their bottoms are still sealed. They're still airtight. And they have some nice features of their own, like disc brakes in front, which most cars have yet to include. The Fastback and the Squareback offer a little more room and a little more power for a little more money. (So if you want a Volkswagen that doesn't look like a Volkswagen, you have but to pay a bit more.) The Volkswagen that does look like a Volkswagen will still sell for about the same old price. And it will still have the same old look. But it's actually the newest car of the lot; there are 28 changes for 1966, all inside. The biggest change is that the engine is 25% more powerful than last year. (It makes a surprising difference in pickup with no surprising difference in mileage; you can count on 29 miles per gallon.) The other 27 changes do what Volkswagen changes have always done: they make the car work better and last even longer. And they don't do what VW changes have never done: they never make it go out of style. We know that this system works for the beetle,- it was the 5th best selling car model in America in 1965. We hope that it will work out just as well for the Fastback and the Squareback too. We went to a lot of trouble to make all the new Volkswagens as good as they are. We hope that you’ll have a lot of trouble deciding which one to buy.
