Conference Title On Line
Weatherman Obliges
As Ags Invade Ozarks
By GERALD GARCIA
Battalion Sports Editor
FAYETTEVILLE — The Tex
as Aggie basketball team arrived
here early Wednesday afternoon
and found the weatherman was
again on their side.
A&M has won nine conference
games when the weather was
miserable and has suffered only
one defeat during bad weather —
to the Southern Methodist Mus
tangs in Dallas last week.
The weatherman is predicting
severe thunderstorms for Thurs
day and the Aggies couldn’t be
happier.
The game begins at 7:30 p.m.
and will be broadcast over radio
KORA with Mike Mistovich an
nouncing, starting at 7:25 p.m.
The Aggies, currently occupy
ing the top spot in the Southwest
Conference race with the Mus
tangs — both with 10-3 marks —•
will end regular season here.
SMU will also close out their sea
son play tonight against the Tex
as Tech Red Raiders in Dallas.
At the beginning of the season,
Coach Shelby Metcalf predicted
the conference race would be de
cided in the hills of Arkansas,
and his prediction could come
true.
Arkansas has lost only one this
season here, and that was a one-
point squeaker to SMU, a win
which started the Ponies on their
current 10-game win streak.
If both SMU and A&M, win or
lose, a playoff to determine the
conference representative to the
NCAA regional playoffs in Lub
bock March 11-12 will be played
in Waco’s Heart O’ Texas Coli
seum Monday night.
If one wins and the other loses,
the winner will be the conference
champ.
Rumors have been circulating
throughout the hills the last few
days that Glen Rose, 62-year-old
Razorback basketball coach,
would announce his retirement
before tonight’s contest, but as
of late Wednesday night the ru
mor has not been confirmed or
denied.
Rose, who will be starting five
seniors playing their last game in
Razorback uniforms, would not
comment on the retirement ru
mor.
A decision by Rose would be a
great factor in the game. If he
announces his retirement, Arkan
sas could be sky-high for the
game.
“I don’t think the retirement
will be a big difference in the
game,” Metcalf said. “I think
Arkansas will be high because
they will be playing five seniors
for the last time.”
Metcalf will go with his usual
starting five — John Beasley,
Randy Matson, Dick Stringfel-
low, Eddie Dominguez and Dick
Rector.
Aggie reserve Wyley Jenkins
might not see action tonight. The
Aggies sophomore suffered in
digestion all day Wednesday and
Metcalf considers him doubtful
for action.
The team is expected to return
to Easterwood Airport about 1:30
a.m. Friday.
RANDY FOR TWO
Randy Matson drives into the lane for two of his 13 points
against the Baylor Bears in the Aggies’ final home game
of the 1966 campaign. John Beasley and an unidentified
Bruin jostle for position under the basket.
