Cadets To Seek 8th Win Saturday By GERALD GARCIA Battalion Sports Editor Shelby Metcalf, Texas A&M’s head mentor, gave a sigh of relief heard throughout the Southwest Confer ence Saturday night after the University of Texas had upended the high-flying Texas Tech Red Raiders, 87-74. After the Longhorns had stunned TCU, 77-75, Tues day night, Metcalf’s moan was heard throughout the basketball world. “It looks like the Longhorns have found the winning combina tion and are really fighting back,” Metcalf said after learning of the Horns’ win over the Frogs. Metcalf’s surprising Aggies, who currently hold a commanding three-game bulge in SWC play, will host the “new-looking” Long horns in G. Rollie White Coliseum at 8 p.m. Saturday. Coach Harold Bradley’s Longhorns have been scrambling all season, but did give the Aggies their biggest scare during the first round of conference action. Saturday’s game will open second- round play for both teams and Texas will bring a 3-4 norm into the game, while the Aggies hold a perfect 7-0 conference record. In the first meeting between the two bitter rivals, Texas held a 15-point lead, 44-29, in the first half before A&M got moving and downed the Longhorns, 64-57. The Horns did the same thing to TCU that A&M did to them. They were behind by four points at the half, and by as much as 12 with 10 minutes left, but pulled the game out on a jump shot by Dale Dotson with three seconds left. Against the Red Raiders, the resurging Longhorns used a sagging 1-2-2 zone that completely stopped the heralded Dub Malaise and Bob Glover. Malaise only scored seven points, while Glover was held to three by the “new” Longhorns. One of the big reasons the Texas Longhorns have shown such a great improvement since the semester break is the addition of Noel Stout to the starting lineup and an improved defense. The junior guard, a transfer from Lon Morris, “playing his second fine game in a row sparked a Steers’ rally in the TCU game,” wrote Fred Sanner of the Austin American sports staff. Stout will team with Paul Olivier, Dotson, Charley Turnbough and Mickey White in the Longhorns’ starting lineup. The Aggies, fresh from a stunning, 77-71, victory over the Tech Red Raiders, will counter with John Beasley, the conference’s most prolific scorer, Randy Matson, Eddie Dominguez, Dick String- fellow and Dick Rector. A&M DEFENSIVE WIZARD Dick Stringfellow is the Cadets’ top de fensive man. He limited Baylor’s Jimmy Turner and TCU’s Jim Evans to one field goal each. “That Stringfellow!’’ marveled TCU’s Coach Buster Brannon after the Aggies beat TCU. Stringfellow will start at a forward post against the University of Texas Saturday night in G. Rollie White Coliseum. tEo all to tolrum tln'sr presents shall route.

BOX 5474 • DALLAS 22, TEXAS An Equal Opportunity Employer Clock, Timer Work Together In Tech Game Is there a jeweler in the house? This might easily have been the plea of Texas A&M Coach Shelby Metcalf and Texas Tech Coach Gene Gibson in Tuesday’s cage tussle at G. Rollie White Coli seum. Late in the freshman game be tween A&M and Lon Morris Junior College, a “second hand” light of the coliseum clock failed. The malfunction could not be corrected before the varsity clash. Metcalf and Gibson huddled with timer Francis Lynch to probe the problem. | Since the matter of seconds caused no special consternation until the final minute of each half, it was decided that Lynch would use a stop watch during the last minute. Lynch called seconds in counts of ten—50, 40, 30—and public address announcer Jim O’Connell aired the time for players and fans. Tech used the count to help run out the clock in the first half and protect a 40-36 lead.
