linksters felt the sting of the
Texas golf bugs, 3%-2%, at Mor
ris Williams Golf Course in Aus
tin.
Terry Archer of A&M copped
a six and four win over Dee Fin
ley for the Aggies’ sole singles
victory while Sip Eugene Mitch
ell, medalist with a par round of
72, snubbed Ronnie Tomas two
and one.
Mason Adkins and Bruce Miller
scored one-up edgings of Lee
McCowell and Skip Bresk, respec
tively, for the other TU singles
victories. In two-ball action,
Archer and Bresk halved with
Finley and Miller while the Mc-
Cowell-Tomas duo bested Adkins
and Mitchell one-up.
In track action Saturday, Ran
dy Matson did his stuff for the
Aggies’ only two blue ribbons at
the Texas Relays in Austin.
Matson lofted the shot 65 feet
4*4 inches in the prelims and
launched the discus 169 feet 9
inches into a strong crosswind
for the first-place markers. It
was his best showing in the shot
ring this season, and it proved to
skeptics that his three-month
stint with the A&M basketballers
hurt him not.
Aggie sprinter Gilbert Smith
gained a fourth place finish in
the 100-yard dash with a 9.6
clocking, behind a brisk 9.4 by
winner Clyde Glosson of Trinity.
The 440-yard relay crew of Al
bert Cilio, Smith, Billy Schmidt
and Arie Britt sped to third place
in 41.2 seconds. The Southern
Methodist Ponies galloped to first
with a 40.6.
A&M’s 880-yard relay unit sal
vaged a sixth place finish after
dropping- the baton.
The featured event of the Re
lays, the invitational Jerry
Thompson Mile- Run, fell on its
star-studded forehead as the
states’ first sub-four minute mile
failed to materialize. American
record holder Jim Ryun ran a
4:03.9 to whip four - time meet
winner John Camien and Mis-
souri-ex Robin Lingle, all running
unattached.
Texas dominated the university
class, winning the sprint medley
and two-mile relays and gaining
recognition as the outstanding
team in their division.
But little Southern University
of Baton Rouge captured the cake
with four record-breaking relay
wins and one other first. Friday
night the sprint medley foursome
flashed to a American collegiate
mark of 3:16.5, eclipsing Baylor’s
old 3:17 timing.
In Saturday’s running, the two-
mile quartet set a Relays mark
of 7:27.1, although opening baton-
man Henry Brown fell and
dropped the stick. Robert John
son picked it up and made up the
loss. Then the Louisiana group
streaked to a meet record of 39.9

in the 440-yard relay.
In their Texas Relays finale,
Southern smashed the mile relay
standard with a 3:04.7 clocking.
Theron Lewis ran a 45.6 anchor
leg, as Southern came within two-
tenths of the world record, and
outdistanced all college division
harriers as the star performer.
All tolled, seventeen records fell
in the two-day conclave. John
Hartfield of Texas Southern drew
much of the cheers with a seven-
foot leap in the high jump, nixing
his old Relays best of 6-10 1 /4.
Kansas erased their own mark
of 16:55.3 in the four-mile relay
by 15.1 seconds with a 16:40.2
and Abilene Christian romped to
a new meet record in the distance
medley, clocking a 9:36.5.
Preston Davis anchored Texas’
winning relay groups and was
named the outstanding performer
in the university division. Rice
frosh star Conley Brown received
likewise honors for his anchor
work in the winning mile and
two-mile baton efforts.
Lanky schoolboy Clarence
Johnson of San Antonio St. Peter
Claver eradicated the oldest mark
on the books, the high jump rec
ord of 6-5 set by Vern McGrew
of Houston Lamar in 1946, flying
6-9 and gaining the spotlight in
his class.
Coach Omar Smith’s surprising
Aggie tennis squad romped and
stomped over Texas Tech Satur
day with a 6-0 shutout after a
Friday afternoon bombing of
five-time NAIA champ Pan-
American.
The Tech stomp opened South
west Conference net action on a
happy note. A&M plays Texas
today in College Station and the
winner will assume the role of
chief challenger to defending
league champ Rice.
Against Tech, Richard Barker
of A&M clobbered Charles Bower, I
6-1, 6-0, in the No. 1 singles J
match. Then Luis Rojas smacked
Tech’s Mike Farrish, 6-1, 6-1.
Ricky Williams downed Benge
Daniel of Tech, 6-1, 6-0, and Pete
Faust swept one-man play, blast
ing a 6-3, 6-1 match from Pat
Acton.
The doubles crew of Barker and
Williams crushed Bower and Far
rish, 6-0, 6-3 while the Aggies'
Dean Dyer and Rojas won by
default over Acton and Daniel
because of a Tech player’s illness.
The 4-2 slicing of Pan-Ameri
can avenged an earlier loss in
Edinburg. Barker, Rojas and
Williams bested their opposite
numbers and Joe Tillerson came
up short in singles play. The
Barker-Williams duo clicked as
usual but the Rojas-Dyer crew
flubbed for a split in doubles ac
tion.
