The best score by Billy Martin- dale and Bobby Nichols will be the goal for competitors in the 1966 A&M International Golf Tournament. Players beating the Aggie duo’s best in the Former Students Association sponsored tourney may win trophies and medals. Tournament particulars may be obtained from local course shops and gallery tickets for the Nichols-Martindale match are on sale at locations in College Sta tion and Bryan. Nichols, Aggie who helped guide the Maroon to the first of four straight Southwest Con ference golf championships, turned pro in 1959. Through the Jacksonville Open the 1962 Ben Hogan Award winner has pocket ed $221,163.02 in PGA winnings. Coming back from a wracked and torn situation after an auto accident that hospitalized him for 96 days, Nichols has carded wins in the 1964 PGA, Carling World Open, St. Petersburg Open, Houston Classic, Greater Seattle Open and finished in the top 10 of 12 events in 1961. The same year he tied for second in the Canadian Open and lost a sudden death playoff in the On tario Open. Without winning a tourney, Martindale carved out $44,583.10 in official money, 17th on the list, as a sophomore in 1965 after a $4,892.80 abbreviated rookie season. His 1966 total is $2,025. The 27-year-old bespectacled Martindale put second place fin ishes back-to-back at the Sahara Invitational and Almaden Open last October. He played well in the Houston Classic and Texas Open in 1964 but had his best chance for a win in that year’s Greater New Orleans Open. He placed a 274 on the score- board and watched Dick Mayer hole a wedge shot on the 18th green to beat him by a stroke. Both Martindale and Nichols were stellar football and basket ball players in high school, Nichols at Louisville’s St. Xavier High and Martindale at Jackson ville, Texas. The auto accident took care of Bobby’s future in either sport, but Martindale, an all-state quarterback, turned down several football scholar ship offers to accept a golf scholarship at A&M. Both are married. Bobby and Nancy Nichols have a son and a daughter. Bill and Dianna Mar tindale have a daughter, born late in 1965.

The Aggies beat the Longhorns, 5-1, at the A&M courts. The win was A&M’s eleventh in Southwest conference to go with only one loss. Texas’ record is 8-3. Matson Hurts Knee Again; To Miss SMU Meet Saturday Randy Matson, who was just getting back into form after a round with basketball, re-injured his knee during a weight-lifting exercise. The knee, which has been bothering Matson for most of his athletic carer, was badly twisted in February in a basketball game against the Texas Christian Horned Frogs in Fort Worth. Matson played the rest of the basketball season with the knee heavily taped. When the world’s greatest shot putter started track workouts, the knee kept Matson from doing heavy weight training which he thinks helps more than actually throwing the shot in practice. The injury will keep Matson out of the Southern Methodist meet this weekend, but Emil Mamaliga, Matson’s weight-lift ing coach, said Matson should be ready for competition Tuesday night when A&M hosts Baylor for a dual meet. Matson last week threw the iron ball 65-4>/£, his best of the year.
