*j^^£i-XW'.'C~~ '<' . I ^*• Ml HILLHOUSE HOMEWARD BOUND . . . Aggie pitcher rounds first after blasting a three-run- homer in the fifth inning of Thursday game with Rice. The Aggies won, 12-4. Aggies Stay Atop SWC Baseball By Blasting Rice The theory around the Southwest Conference that all a team has to do to beat the Texas Aggies is to score a run was disapproved Thurfeday. In the first five conference games, A&M lost one. In that one, Baylor pushed across four runs to A&M’s one, but in the others the Aggies held their foes scoreless. So the Aggies got the reputa tion of losers if the other team scored. A&M ace lefty Steve Hillhouse and his comrades surrendered two runs to the Rice Owls,, but blew the theory up when they ex ploded for nine runs in the fifth inning to blast, Rice 12-4. After A&M tied the game at 2-2 in the third, Hillhouse started and climaxed the nine-run slurge. His good batting eye gave him a walk to start the uprising and when he batted for the second time in the inning he lined a three-run homer over the 330-foot sign in right field, for the sixth, seventh and eighth runs of the inning. And if Hillhouse’s blast was not eonugh, Lou Camilli, who has murdered conference pitching, followed with a shot over the 315- foot sign just inside the line in right field on the next pitch. Besides the homer, Hillhouse also collected a single in three trips to give him six hits in 10 appearance to the plate in confer ence for a .000 batting average. But it was Camilli who was the batting star with three hits. Mike Arrington also helped the Aggie cause with two hits in four trips. Other Aggies with hits were Billy Crain, Neil Thomp son, Jeff Warren, Joe Staples and Richard Schwartz, all with one hit apiece. The win was A&M’s fifth of the season in conference play to go with one loss. The victory kept the Aggies one-half game ahead of the Texas Longhorns who beat SMU, 8-1. A&M’s season record stands at 14-1-1. Rice used three pitchers in the loosely played contest which saw the Owls charged with two errors and the Aggies with five. Starter Ronnie Henson took the loss as he worked five innings, but he did have nine strike outs. Other Rice pitchers who saw action were Mickey Holder who was the victim of Hillhouse’s and Camilli’s homers and Jim Eielnd. Hillhouse retired in the seventh and Billy Johnson and Ken Perrin mopped up for the Aggies. Johnson worked the eighth and Perrin the ninth. The Aggies’ next games will be Monday in San Antonio when they meet the University of Missouri in the first game of a double- header at Randolph Air Force Base. In the second game, the Aggies will play the base team. Please don’t zlupf Sprite. It makes plenty of noise all by itself. Sprite, you recall, is the soft drink that's so tart and tingling, we just couldn't keep it quiet. Flip its lid and it really flips. Bubbling, fizzing, gurgling, hissing and carrying on all over the place. An almost exces sively lively drink. Hence, to zlupf is to err. What is zlupfing? Zlupfing is to drinking what smacking one's lips is to eating. It's the staccato buzz you make when draining the last few deliciously tangy drops of Sprite from the bottle with a straw. Zzzzzlllupf! It's completely uncalled for. Frowned upon in polite society. And not appreciated on campus either. But. If zlupfing Sprite is absolutely essential to your enjoyment; if a good healthy zlupf is your idea of heaven, well...all right. But have a heart. With a drink as noisy as Sprite, a little zlupf goes a long, long way. SPRITE. SO TART AND TINGLING. WE JUST COULDN'T KEEP IT QUIET.

(ZP) — More than 1,300 athletes, including America’s premier miler, Jim Ryun, the world record mile re lay team of Southern University and a world record potential 440- yard relay team from Texas Southern move in Friday for the Texas Relays. For two days and one night, the massive field will whip through 43 events and almost a score of records appear destined for the ash can in the giant five- division track and field meet. Ryun, the Kansas freshman who holds the American record of 3:55.3, is expected to finally give the Texas Relays its four- minute mile. He will have such four-minute threats as Robin Lingle, the former Missouri star who has done 4:00.3 and John Camien, ex-Emporia, Kan. ace who has won the special mile four times. The record is 4:00.5, held by Wes Santee of Kansas. 3:07.8. The team that did the world mark returns intact. Texas Southern last week ripped off a 440-yard relay in 39.9, which is only tow-tenths of a second over the world rec ord held by Stanford. The meet also will have a 7- foot high jumper in John Hart- field of Texas Southern, who has cleared the magical mark four times, once reaching 7-1. He should clip his own Texas Re lays record of 6-10 1/2. Randy Matson, the world rec ord shot putter 70-714, from Tex as A&M, will be after his own Texas Relays marks of 67-9 in the shot and 188-8 in the discus. 165-4 VO 14 9-9 VO loonej Joe Willi 3-12.
