Texas Aggie first baseman
Billy Crain drove in four runs
and Tommy Chiles and Billy
Johnson turned in fine early sea
son pitching performances as the
Aggies swept a doubleheader
from the Sul Ross Lobos, 2-0
and 5-0, Tuesday afternoon at
Bryan’s Travis Park.
The twinbill sweep gave Coach
Tom Chandler’s Aggies an un
blemished 6-0 record for the
young campaign.
A&M will host the University
of Houston Cougars at Kyle
Field at 3 p.m. Thursday for
the last non-conference game be
fore Southwest Conference com
petition begins Saturday in Fort
Worth against the Texas Chris
tian Horned Frogs.
Both Chiles and Johnson looked
in mid-season form as they
hurled three-and five-hitters, re
spectively. The wins gave A&M
a sweep of the three-game series
with Sul Ross.
Chiles got all the support he
needed in the fourth inning when
second baseman Lance Cobb,
A&M’s all-American and all-con
ference performer, singled to
left and later advanced to sec
ond. Crain then lined a single
to left center field for the Ag
gies’ first run.
Crain was also instrumental in
A&M’s second run of the seven
inning first game. He singled
to center for his second hit in
three tries, stole second and
raced home after two were out
when catcher Joe Staples drilled
a hit to left field.
Chiles, besides allowing only
three hits, walked two and
fanned six.
Chandler praised both of the
pitchers for their outstanding
performances.
“When you get good pitching,
you are hard to beat and the
way Billy (Johnson) and Tom
my (Chiles) pitched . . . well,
they just looked real good for
this early in the year,” Chandler
said.
Johnson became the first A&M
pitcher to go the full nine in
nings as he turned his second
fine performance of the season.
He pitched six strong innings
against Texas Lutheran Thurs
day.

Blinn Junior College standout,

did not allow a Lobo base runner
to reach third after the first
inning. He received credit for
three strike outs and two walks.
After the shaky first inning
when a double play by the Aggie
infield killed a major Sul Ross
threat, Johnson took command of
the Lobos.
The Aggies gave him all the
runs he needed in the first when
short stop Jeff Warren scored
on a single by Crain. Cobb later
added the second marker for the
Aggies in the initial frame by
racing home on a passed ball.
Crain doubled home two in
surance runs in the sixth frame
after Warren and Cobb had sin
gled to left.
The Aggies added their final
tally in the seventh on a walk
to right fielder Richard Schwartz,
an error and a wild pitch.
Crain, who broke out of an
early season batting slump, col
lected four hits in the double-
header in seven trips to the
plate.
John Boss, A&M’s left fielder,
turned in the fielding gem of the
doubleheader as he made a lung
ing, back-handed stab of a long
drive the Lobo’s Kenny Richard
son hit into the left field corner
in the sixth inning.
Stengel Selected
To Hall Of Fame
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. <A > ) — Casey Stengel breezed into
baseball’s Hall of Fame Tuesday at the age of 75, waving a blue
New York Mets cap and filling the air with pure Stengelese.
Only a Stengel could breeze in with a slight limp, a lasting
souvenir of the broken left hip that forced his retirement as
manager of the Mets last Aug. 30.
News of the unanimous vote by the 11-man veterans committee
after an extraordinary special election came as a complete surprise
to the 01’ Professor wha had been lured to Miller Huggins-Stengel
Field on another pretext.
CASEY CAME prepared with a few words honoring his old
sidekick, George Weiss, president of the Mets, only to hear Ford
Frick, ( the former commissioner and new chairman of the veter
ans committee, tell him of his election.
Naturally, Casey was not lost for words.
“When you’re alive at the present time,” he said at one stage,
“it is nice to know you’ve done something in your life that people
thought was worthwhile.
“So many men done amazing things it makes you feel regret
that four or five others are not in it. I feel sorry for the others
that didn’t get in.”
STENGEL BECAME eligible without the normal five-year wait
ing period when the rules were changed Jan. 30. Under the new
code a manager, umpire or executive who retires at 65 or over
is eligible after a six-months wait. Casey retired Aug. 30 so
he became eligible appropriately on Feb. 30 — a nonexistent date.
