Aggie Five Tops Rice, 75-66
By GARY SHERER
It was a case of the worm
turning Tuesday night as the Ag
gie basketballers knocked off Rice
at Houston, 75-66.
In the Aggies’ last home game,
against Baylor, they were victims
of a cold shooting night. Last
night, before 5,000 screaming
Autry Gym spectators, the Owls
tasted some of that “cold turkey”.
THE RICE shooting woes plus
some all-around aggressive play
by the Maroon and White led to
the Aggies’ third conference win
of the season. The result ties the
Owls and Aggies at 3-4 in the
Southwest Conference race.
The first half saw the lead
change hands eight times as the
Aggies could not put enough
together to pull away from the
poor - shooting Owls. Reserve
guard Oliver Biggers, 6-2 sopho
more from New Braunfels helped
the Aggie cause in the first twen
ty minutes with some heads-up
play.
Biggers plus the scoring of
Mike Heitmann and Ronnie Peret
wasn’t enough to offset the bas
kets of the Owls one-two punch
of Larry Miller and Greg Wil
liams. Miller and William had 30
of Rice’s 34 first half points as
the Aggies took a slim one-point
lead to the dressing room at half
time.
WITH TWO minutes gone in
the second half, Miller put the
Owls into what turned out to be
their last lead, at 37-36. At this
point, Johnny Underwood put the
Aggies ahead to stay with seven
quick points. Sandwiched in-be
tween Underwood’s scoring was
two layups by Peret as the Ag
gies outscored the Owls 12-2 dur
ing this streak.
For the rest of the game, the
Aggies’ balanced scoring kept the
Owls down as only Miller could
find the basket with any regu
larity the rest of the way. Wil
liams was held to one basket in
the second half by the guarding
of Sonny Benefield and Biggers.
A BIG REASON for the Ag
gies keeping the lead in the final
minutes was the aggressive re
bounding of Billy Bob Barnett.
Barnett, 6-5 junior from Brenham,
pulled down 11 rebounds in the
second half with most of them
coming in the last five minutes
of play. This coupled with his 9
of 10 from the free throw line
kept the Aggies out in front.
Peret led the Aggies with 19
and Underwood, Barnett and Heit
mann chipped in with 12, 11 and
10 respectively. Miller scored a
season high 28 for the Owls and
Williams had 21.
The varsity game was preceded
by a SWC freshman clash be
tween the Texas Aggie Fish and
the Rice Owlets. The Owlets
grabbed a close 63-58 decision.
HIGH FOR THE Fish was
Chuck Smith with 15 while Dar
rell Halloran led Rice with 14.
The Fish, who are now 4-3 on the
year will next meet the Texas
Shorthorns Saturday night in the
pre-lim of the Aggie-Longhorn
clash at G'. Rollie White Coliseum.
Coach Shelby Metcalf’s 9-8 son. A big turnout like last Sat-
charges will be looking to make urday will definitely aid the ef-
it two wins over Texas this sea- fort.

Ski Controversy
Starts Olympics
GRENOBLE, France <A>> _
President Charles de Gaulle
beamed with pride as the Winter
Olympics opened Tuesday, and
Games’ officials were even hap
pier later in the day after eras
ing a ski controversy that had
threatened to reduce the Games
to mini-Olympics.
Shortly after 60,000 spectators
in Grenoble and an estimated 60
million television viewers in the
United States and Europe heard
de Gaulle proclaim the Games
open and watched Alain Calmat
light the Olympic flame, the Uni
ted States di’opped the opening
match of the hockey competition,
losing to Czechoslovakia 5-1.
MORE SIGNIFICANT for the
Games, however, was the com
promise reached several hours
later between the International
Olympic Committee and the In
ternational Ski Federation in the
ski-trademark controversy.
The IOC, which had wanted all
manufacturers’ names removed
from skis of competitors, ruled
skiing would remain in the Gre
noble Olympics but that no skier
would be permitted to show any
trademarks on his skis at the end
of a run.
The decision appeared to be
acceptance by the IOC of a com
promise formula proposed by ISF
to leave the trademarks on but
to make sure the skiers do not
display their equipment to photo
graphers and television cameras.
THE IOC IS opposed to skis
bearing trademarks because it
feels this practice is a commer
cial exploitation of the Olympics.
The compromise eliminated the
possibility of the ski events being
crossed off the Olympic program
and being reduced to world cham
pionships. Skiing represents the
backbone and much of the glamor
of the Winter Games and its elim
ination from these Games would
have damaged both the prestige
and interest in them.
MARC HODLER of Switzer
land, president of ISF, said any
skier defying the new rule would
be disqualified.
Aside from the opening cere
mony, Tuesday’s Olympic schedule
was light.
The U. S.-Czechoslovia hockey
match was first, and it got the
games off to a clean start.
Only four penalties were called
in the game, three against the
Americans, but the U. S. team
was not happy, feeling that the
referee kept the game in too tight
a rein and never let the players
cut loose.
Doug Volmar, an engineer from
Minneapolis, scored the only U. S.
goal, tying the game 1-1 at 16:22
of the first period with an assist
from Larry Pleau of Boston.
WACO, Tex. — Baylor
dominated the last half to beat
Texas 74-58 behind Russell Kib-
be’s 24 points Tuesday night and
remain in first place in the
Southwest Conference basketball
race. The Bears roared back
from a 35-32 halftime deficit and
won going away before more than
6,000 fans — one of the largest
crowds ever to see a basketball
game in Waco.
Texas committed 19 turnovers
to contribute to its defeat and a
great guarding job on Billy Arn
old, the conference’s leading
scorer, by Bob Porter was an
other important factor. Arnold
was held to eight points.
In/the last five minutes Baylor
stalled for a minute and a half
when Texas couldn’t even touch
the ball.
Gary Overbeck was the leading
scorer by Texas, flipping in 14
points. Larry Gatewood scored
15 for Baylor.
Baylor ran its conference rec
ord to 6-1 and Texas dropped to
4-3. Arkansas, beating Texas
Tech 61-56, moved into second
place with a 5-2 record.
In other conference action,
Texas Christian ran over South
ern Methodist, 91-64 and Texas
A&M topped Rice 75-66.
As mentioned, Baylor now leads
the league at 6-1 with Arkansas
next at 5-2. Texas and TCU oc
cupy third with 4-3 marks while
Texas A&M, and Rice are tied for
fourth at 3-4 and Tech and SMU
bring up the rear at 2-5 and 1-6.
