THE BATTALION
Hillhouse Impressive
Ags
To
Blank Longhorns
Take SWC Lead
Sam Houston State College was playing in
Austin on March 18, 1959. At the end of nine
innings, the score stood: SHS 2, Texas 0. Since
that skunk by SHS, the Longhorns had gone 199
games, including exhibition and post-season play,
without being shutout.
But the man considered around the Southwest
Conference as the Texas Killer — Steve Hillhouse —
turned the trick Saturday at Kyle Field as the

Baseballers To Host
Rice For 2 Games
The Texas Aggies will host Rice University
for two Southwest Conference baseball games Wed
nesday and Thursday. Both games will be played
at the Kyle Field Diamond, starting at 3 p. m.
A&M is currently leading the conference with
a 3-1 record, followed by Baylor with 2-1, TCU
and Texas at 2-2, SMU with 1-2 and Rice with 0-2.
The last time A&M played Rice, the Aggies
blasted the Owls 10-0 behind the one-hit pitching
of Steve Hillhouse.
The Owls are lead by Billy Palmer, a 6-5, 220
righthander. He has put two good pitching per
formances against Texas and SMU back-to-back, but
had to settle for one victory and one loss.
The Killeen junior, who managed a 2-3 SWC
record last year on a 2.56 earned run average,
has given up only seven hits in 17 innings while
losing to Texas, 4-3, and winning from SMU, 6-1.
The Aggies will counter with either Hillhouse
or Tommy Chiles, considered the best one-two
punch in the conference.
Texas Aggies blasted Texas, 9-0, before 3,000 fans.
The win gave A&M sole possession of first place
in the conference race.
Hillhouse was impressive in blanking the potent
’Horns. The Aggies ace lefty allowed the Long
horns only five hits, fanning six and did not walk
a batter.
A&M was given help in the title chase by
SMU and Rice. Rice held Baylor to a 5-5 tie in
a 15 inning game that was called because of dark
ness. The game will be replayed at a later date.
As Rice helped the Aggies, so did SMU. The Mus
tangs stomped TCU, 8-1.
After the games, the Aggies had a 3-1 record,
Baylor was a 2-1 and TCU and Texas stood at 2-2.
The Aggies gave Hillhouse all the support he
needed in the initial frame. A walk to Lou Camilli,
a single by Mike Arrington and a double by Lance
Cobb accounted for two runs. An error on a ground
ed by Billy Crain sent the other tally home.
From then on, the Hiller just coasted, but the
Aggie batters did not. The Aggies collected 11
hits off two UT pitchers, with Mike Arrington
leading the way with three hits and three runs
scored.
Hillhouse is now 3-0, with two of his wins
coming in conference play, both shutouts.
Besides their runs in the first the Aggies
added two in the fifth on three singles by Camilli,
Arrington and Cobb.
They closed out the scoring in the sixth on
single — yes, you guessed it — by Camilli, Arring
ton and Crain sandwiched around walks to Richard
Schwartz and Cobb.
Texas threatened in the nineth, on singles by
Forrest Boyd and Joe Gideon, but Hillhouse forced
Minton White and Gary Moore to fly out to end the
game.

Ag Cindermen Take Second,
Other Teams Suffer Losses
The Texas Aggie tracksters,
netters and golfers fared well
against tough competition over
the weekend, but the Fish base
ballers and the fencers took it
on the chin.
Randy Matson and Gilbert
Smith led the cindermen to sec
ond place in the Corpus Christi
Relays. By placing in second, the
Aggies will go at least one more
week claiming that they have
never finished lower than the
runnerup spot in a meet.
At the Corpus meet, A&M won
six firsts but Abilene Christian
was too powerful in the distance

events and the Aggies finished
behind the Wildcats, 66-54%. Rice
was third, Texas fourth, Baylor
fifth and SMU sixth.
The three-mile run was A&M’s
downfall. The Aggies were lead
ing the field by 1% points but
ACC took first and second in the
event and the Aggies were prac
tically eliminated.
A&M could have pulled the
title out in the final event of the
meet—the mile relay—but they
finished fourth and ACC took
first to ice the title.
Matson and Smith were both
double winners. Matson won the
discus and the shot with tosses of
176-11% and 62-8, respectively.
Smith won the 100 with a 9.8
and set a meet record
in the 220 with a timing of 21.4.
The other Aggie winners were
Mike Schrider and Dan Meadows.
Schrider won the high jump with
a leap of 6-2 and Meadows, who
has been in a bad slump lately,
threw the javelin 211-10 for the
top spot in that event.
A&M’s other points came with
a fourth in the 440 relay, Larry
McGough’s fifth place in the 440-
yard dash, Martin Rollins’ second
in the pole vault, Steve Holtz’s
third in the high jump, Willie
Rodriguez’ fifth in the 880, Max
Young’s third in the 440 hurdles
and Bob Brown’s fourth in the
broad jump.
As the Aggie tracksters were
going wild in Corpus, the tennis
team was having its problem in
the Rice Intercollegiate Invita
tional Tournament in Houston.
The Aggies finished in a tie for
fourth with Pan American in the
tourney.
Still the tennis team was more
successful than the golf squad.
The golfers entertained Arkansas
on the A&M Course and lost to
the Razorbacks, 5-1.
The Fish were not very suc
cessful. They lost a doubleheader
to the Texas Shorthorns, 4-2 and
11-0.
The Fish got only one hit in the
second game, that a single by
Pete Maida to spoil the Texas no
hit bid.
Texas A&M’s fencing team rep
resentatives were eliminated ear
ly in competition at the NCAA
national championships, but
gained valuable experience ac
cording to their coach.
Thomas Bamum and James
Snowden competed with fencers
from 50 schools at the NCAA
nationals at Duke University over
the weekend.
“Our main purpose in going
was to gain more experience to
be prepared for following years,”
Aggie coach Russ Wieder re
marked. “One or two touches in
several bouts would have put our
men further along toward the
finales. Some of the bouts were
that close.”
