Texas Tech and LSU that he did.
The 210-pound defensive end
from Kerrville received his nick
name when he was two years old.
“I fell off a refrigerator, cut a
gash in my head and evidently
didn’t cry much. They started
calling me “Tuffy” but it had
nothing to do with my football
playing.”
Fletcher came up with some big
plays the past two weeks as the
Aggies blasted Texas Tech, 35-14,
and played the socks off LSU
before settling for a 7-7 stale
mate.
“I have a lot of pride in this
football team,” Fletcher explain
ed. “On defense, we know that
if we stay after ’em and play to
win on every play that we’ll come
up with the big plays, the inter
ception or fumble recovery. We
just have confidence that we can
do it.”
At Tivy High in Kerrville,
Fletcher was a 170-pound half
back. He switched to end at
A&M but received a knee injury
against TCU his sophomore year
and never really got to see much
action after that.

Tuffy is no speed merchant
anymore, what with having added
40 pounds to his high school
weight and having had a knee
operation. “My agility and speed
have been affected and I’m con
scious of it.” However, he is a
persistent guy and makes up for
his lack of speed and quickness
by great effort on every play.
This week, at home, Fletcher
and his Aggie mates square off
against a big, strong outfit from
TCU. The Frogs figure to test
A&M’s defense severely and
Fletcher will have his work cut
out in attempting to halt the
hard-running Frogs.
You can rest assured that
where the action is, you’ll find
Tuffy Fletcher around and he’ll
be sticking that Maroon helmet
into the action.

Royal In Guessing Game
Picks Arkansas Saturday
AUSTIN, Texas <A>) _ Texas
Coach Darrell Royal estimated
Arkansas Monday a 13-point fav
orite over his Longhorns.
The two teams which have
dominated Southwest Conference
football for six years will settle
the question on the field Saturday
in a regionally telecast (ABC)
game.
“We’re underdogs in this thing
. . . about 13 points if I was going
to guess,” Royal told a news con
ference.
Obviously unable to shake off
the discouraging loss of seven
starters to injuries, Royal said he
was anxious to see if quarterback
Bill Bradley’s injured right knee
will allow him to play against the
Razorbacks who, for a change,
are playing catch-up in the SWC
race.
Royal said he was “hopeful”
Bradley would be ready to take
over the No. 1 spot from Andy
White, who directed Texas on its
18-9 loss Saturday to Oklahoma.
“I doubt if he will be ready,”
Royal added.
Bradley sat out the Texas-OU
game, his leg wrapped in tape.
Royal called Oklahoma “clearly
the better team” and said “they
deserved to win.”
“The manner in which they won
was field position,” he said. “We
averaged starting with the ball
76 yards away from their goal
line. They averaged 54 yards.
They took over inside our 30-
yard-line four times.
