Seattle Tournament Final Stop
Before Conference Play Opens
Coach Shelby Metcalf’s Aggie
basketballers are currently taking
a two week rest from the cage
wars before returning to action
December 29 in Seattle Univer
sity’s Legion Invitational tourna
ment.
The Aggies, possessing a 4-3
record, are in the throes of a
three game losing streak that
began December 13 against the
North Texas State Eagles in
Denton. Following the Denton
loss, the Aggies came out on the
short end of the score against
Kansas State and Kansas, two of
the country’s finest teams.
First round opponents for the
Aggies in the Seattle tournament
are the hosting Chiefs. Seattle
annually has one of the West
Coast’s outstanding teams and
this year is no exception.
The Chiefs posted a fine 18-8
record last season and have not
had a losing record since the
1949-50 team posted a 12-17
mark. During this span they have
posted a fantastic combined rec
ord of 376-117.
Oiler Hopes
Ride On Arm
Of Beathard
HOUSTON UP) — Until Pete
Beathard arrived, the Houston
Oilers were trying to live on de
fense while rebuilding their of
fense.
The Oilers have moved since
last season from the cellar to
the top of the American Football
League’s Eastern Division. Most
of the comeback has developed
since Beathard, the former under
study to Len Dawson at Kansas
City, moved to town Oct. 9.
A victory or a tie next Satur
day night at Miami would send
the Oilers into the AFL cham
pionship game against Oakland.
The Oilers were 2-2-0 when
the club acquired Beathard. They
move into their final regular
season game at 8-4-1. Coach Wal
ly Lemm says Beathard has given
noticeable improvement every
week despite the handicap of
joining the club well after the
season was under way.
“I thought the San Diego game
Saturday was Pete’s best,” Lemm
said. “He was finding his second
ary receivers better than ever.
He hit his secondary receivers
on both touchdown passes. His
primary receivers were well cov
ered both times.”
The passes for eight and 15
yards were to Woodie Campbell
and Alvin Reed.
Beathard probably was as
much surprised to see Campbell
in the open in the Charger end
zone as the San Diego secondary
was.
“Woodie’s first job is to block
ahd that is what he did on that
play,” Lemm said. “He got his
man and then got off the ground
and ran into the end zone. Pete
did a good job finding him and
getting the ball to him.”
Beathard fired the ball side-
arm past an onrushing San Diego
lineman.
Lemm believes the Houston de
fense has been remarkable, par
ticularly since the club had only
a 3-11 record last year.
“Don’t forget that of our 11
defensive starters only one was
at the same position last year,
W. K. Hicks at cornerback,”
Lemm said. “Players at the other
positions are either new or new
to their positions.”
Four of the Chiefs’ top scorers
of last season have left through
graduation but three two-year
lettermen return. They are cap
tain Steve Looney, a guard who
averaged 12 points last season,
Jim LaCour, a 6-6 senior, and
John Wilkens, a 6-3 senior.
Seattle currently has seven
graduates performing in pro bas
ketball including the Los Angeles
ace Elgin Baylor. Baylor has been
a dominant factor on the National
Basketball Association’s all-star
team since leaving Seattle as a
junior in 1958.
Help has also come from Se
attle’s freshman team of last
year which posted a 13-3 record.
Key sophomores are Tom Little,
who carried a 21 point average
last year, and Sam Pierce, who
averaged 17.
Aggies Direct
Full Attention
To Bama Tide
After two weeks of work on
conditioning and fundamentals,
the Texas Aggies Monday turned
their full attention to Alabama,
their New Year’s day football foe
in the Cotton Bowl.
The Aggies received a detailed
scouting report on the Crimson
Tide then went through a lengthy
running session.
Coach Gene Stallings indicated
that his Aggies would work fair
ly hard the rest of the week re
hearsing offensive plays and de
fensive tactics.
Stallings has announced that
after Friday’s workout, he will
dismiss the squad so the players
can spend Christmas at home.
The players will reassemble in
Dallas on Dec. 25.
The Aggie attack is built
around the passing of quarter
back Edd Hargett, the running
of Larry Stegent, Wendell Hous-
ley and Bill Sallee and the re
ceiving of Bob Long, Tom Buck-
man, Tommy Maxwell, Barney
Harris and Jimmy Adams.
All-America linebacker Bill
Hobbs leads the Aggie defense.
Some of his top mates include
tackles Rolf Krueger and Harvey
Aschenbeck and end Grady Allen.
The 1968 Texas Aggie football
schedule lists LSU, Nebraska and
Army in road games for their
first three contests.
Other teams in the tournament
are the University of San Fran
cisco and Colorado State Univer
sity. The tournament’s champion
ship game will be played at 9:30
p.m. December 30 following the
third place contest.
Two-time national champions
San Francisco may carry the title
of favorites into the tournament.
The Dons, alma mater of Boston
Celtic great Bill Russell, had' a
disappointing record of 13-12 last
year but seem to have enough
to bounce back to prior greatness
this season.
Top players for San Francisco
are expected to be senior for
wards Dennis Black and Don Sny
der and guard Art Wilmore.
Black, 6-5, scored at a 19.3 pace
last year while Snyder, 6-4, hit
at a 15.3 average and Wilmore
conected at a 12 point clip.
The Dons lead their conference
over the past 15 years compiling
a 137-49 mark. Basketball teams
from A&M and San Francisco
have met only once over the years
with the Aggies coming out on
top in that contest.

In Sunflower Classic
Kansas Squads Topple Aggies
By JOHN PLATZER
Things went from bad to worse
for the Aggies this past week
end in the Sunflower Basketball
Classic as they took it on the
chin from two of the nation’s
strongest teams.
The two defeats brought A&M’s
once 4-0 record down to 4-3.
After playing Kansas State to
a virtual standoff in the classic’s
first game, the Aggies were swept
off their feet by powerful Kansas
in the Saturday game. They suf
fered their worst defeat of the
season at the hands of the Jay
hawks, 78-52.
The outmanned Aggies led
Kansas at 2-0, 4-3 and 6-5 in the
game and were tied at 8-8 when
five straight turnovers put the
Jayhawks out front to stay. The
shooting of all-everything Jo Jo
White and Roger Bohnenstiehl
allowed Kansas to parlay the
Aggie mistakes into ten straight
points that shot them to a 20-9
lead that was never threatened.
BY HALFTIME Kansas had
turned the game into a rout in
creasing their advantage to 41-
19. The score was due largely to
the outside play of Whitt who
hit for 21 points in the half and
the inside play of Dave Nash who
had 10.
The margin kept increasing in
the game’s final half as the Jay-
hawks didn’t seem to be able to
do anything wrong. Terry Trip-
pet, one of the Aggies’ key sen-
ors, led the Aggies efforts in the
second half as well as the game.
He pumped in 10 points in the
period after being held scoreless
in the first half.
With 10 minutes left in the
game, Kansas had increased its
advantage to 58-31 and gave
White a rest for the remainder
of the contest. He ended up high
point man in the game with 18
followed by Nash with 16 and
Bohnenstiehl with 12. In all Kans
as placed 10 men in the scoring
column.
KANSAS ENJOYED its big
gest lead in the contest with a
little more than three minutes
left at 73-40.
Backing up Trippett’s scoring
for the Aggies was the Southwest
Conference’s leading scorer, Ron
nie Peret, with nine, Billy Bob
Barnett with eight and Johnny
Underwood and Mike Hazel with
seven each.
The Aggies gained the respect
of a whopping crowd of over
15,500 in their Friday night game
of the classic, as they battled a
strong Kansas State team down
to the wire before bowing 82-77.
Coach Shelby Metcalf’s hustl
ing cagers built up a quick 11
point lead in the game before
Kansas State battled back to
take the lead 45-42 at intermis
sion.
With the majority of the large
crowd roaring for them, the Ag
gies came back out firing to open
the second half and take the lead
50-47.
THEY HUNG onto the lead
at 56-55 when Kansas State
pumped in a field goal to never
trail again. The teams traded
points until, with nine minutes
remaining and A&M trailing 67-
64, Kansas State began to pull
away.
The midwest team built up its
biggest lead of the night with
six and a half minutes to go at
75-64, but the Aggies once again
began to chip away. They nar
rowed the margin to 77-73 with
three minutes left but could get
no closer.
One of the big reasons for the
Aggies’ outstanding showing in
the game was the outside shoot
ing of junior college transfer
Harry Bostic. He pumped in eight
field goals and three free throws
for Aggie high point honors with
19. Peret also had a big night
with 16 points while Mike Heit-
mann contributed 12 and Sonny
Benefield had 10.
THE NIGHT’S high point hon
ors went to Kansas State’s Small
with 28 on 11 field goals and 6
free throws. Honeycutt also had
a big night for Kansas State with
18 points.
Rounding out the four team
field in the Classic was perennial
power Cincinnati which dropped
its first game to Kansas and then
defeated Kansas State in over
time.
