Southern Cal Clings To First
After Edging Washington, 14-7
Southern California still is No.
1 in the Associated Press’ major
college football poll, but might
be a little gun-shy after the Ohio
State Buckeyes hit the bullseye
again.
The Trojans clung to a dissi
pating lead — now down to 16
points—over the runnerup Buck
eyes after edging Washington
14-7 last weekend. Ohio State,
meanwhile, continued its ma
chine-gun scoring by slugging
Northwestern 43-21.
Southern Cal chalked up 800
points, including 21 for first
place, in the voting by sports
writers and broadcasters. Ohio
State built its 784 points on 15
first-place ballots plus strength
in second and third-place votes.
Kansas nudged aside idle Penn
State for third place after wal
loping Oklahoma State 49-14. The
Jayhawks grabbed five first-
place ballots and 660 points.
Penn State was named first on
one ballot and rolled up 580
points over-all for fourth place.
Notre Dame, with 442 points,
climbed from sixth to fifth after
burying Illinois 58-8; Tennessee
moved from eighth to sixth with
418 after beating Alabama 10-9
and Purdue dropped from fifth
to seventh after barely beating
winless Wake Forest 28-27.
Georgia rose from 10th to eighth
after thumping Vanderbilt 32-6.
Miami of Florida topped Vir
ginia Tech 13-8, and moved from
12th to ninth, and Syracuse filled
out the Top Ten, moving up a
notch although idle.

votes, records and total points

FORMER YANKEE RETIRES
Elston Howard, one of baseball’s
all-time great catchers, ended an
illustrious career Monday in an
nouncing his retirement as a
payer.
By JOHN PLATZER
Battalion Sports Editor
Texas A&M’s defense will get
one of it's stiffest tests this
weekend in Waco against the
Baylor Bears, according to Ag
gie head coach Gene Stallings.
A win will be a must for the
Aggies in the game, as it will in
every game for the remainder of
the season. A&M has a 1-1
Southwest Conference record and
a 2-3 season mark while Baylor
will enter the game with an 0-4
season record and an 0-1 SWC
mark. No SWC team has ever
won the SWC championship with
two conference losses.
“They (Baylor) really block
and do things well,” Stallings
said at Tuesday’s press confer
ence.
“They get 10 starters back
from last season and they have
had a week to rest and get their
injuries well.
“It’s their first home game
and it’s their homecoming so you
can see why I’m scared.”
The Aggies enter the contest
in sixth place in the SWC total
offense statistics and in second
in the total defense while the
Bears are fourth in offense and
last in defense. A&M has aver
aged 327 yards a game and has
given up 337 yards per outing
while Baylor has averaged 339.5
yards and has given up a 468.5
yard average.
“Baylor has the best offensive
team this year that they’ve had
since we’ve been at A&M,” the
SWC 1967 coach of the year said.
He added that Baylor has play
ed four great teams this season,
including Indiana, Michigan
State, Louisiana State and Ark
ansas.
The Aggies will enter the game
in slightly better physical condi
tion than they were in for last
week’s 27-7 win over Texas
Christian.
“Our injury situation is a little
better than last week. Larry
Stegent, Bob Long and Gary
Gruben are question marks. Bill
Hobbs is in better shape now
than he was this time last week,”
the Aggie coach said.
Tailback Stegent and wingback
Long are both bothered with
shoulder injuries while Gruben,
a guard, has a hurt foot. Hobbs,
the Aggies’ All-America line
backer, has been bothered by a
bad back.
“We didn’t make as many
costly mistakes, not as many silly
penalties and our punt coverage
was the best its been all season,”
Stallings evaluated the win over
TCU.
Stallings Gives
Yeoman Reply
To Criticism
In reply to statements made by
University of Houston athletic
director Harry Fouke and foot
ball coach Bill Yeoman before the
Houston Touchdown Club Mon
day concerning a desire to play
Texas A&M, athletic director and
head football coach Gene Stall
ings said Tuesday that “right
now I’m a a lot more concerned
about playing Baylor than I am
about playing Houston.”
Stallings then gave out the fol
lowing statement at his Tuesday
press conference:
“I’d like to say I don’t think
the Houston Touchdown Club nor
newspapers are the places to
schedule football games. Ordi
narily this is done between ath
letic directors.
“Since they question Texas
A&M about not playing Houston
I can tell you why we haven’t
tried to schedule them.
“First, it is not a matter of
hurting recruiting. The last time
we played Houston we won. I
don’t think that necessarily
helped our recruiting. So if they
had won I don’t think it would
have necessarily hurt our re
cruiting.
“In the past we have not been
abiding by the same recruiting
rules Houston abides by.
“I am not implying in the least
that they are violating any rules,
but the Southwest Conference
limits us to when we can sign
a prospect, when we can visit one,
what we can do and can’t do in
the fall and spring of the year
and in the past in how many
times we could see a boy.
“Until we recruit with the
same ryles for the same players,
Texas A&M will not consider
playing the University of Hous
ton or any other schools in the
state that do not abide by our
same requirements.
“I would not even bother to
mention all of this if it had not
appeared in the newspapers.”

Here is the 1968 season. The zany, unpredict
able Southwest Conference season. Where under
dogs become topdogs on any given Saturday.
Where comparative scores, home field advantage
and other prognostic devices are thrown to the
winds. Where on the day of the game it’s just us
versus them and to hell with what happened last
week or last year. Yes, the Southwest Conference
has tradition — anyone can win, anyone can pull
the big shocker of the season and fate doesn’t
play favorites.
