THE BATTALION
Former Pro Star Added
To Aggie Coaching Staff
Athletic Director and Head
Football Coach Gene Stallings of
A&M today announced the hiring
of Dick Harris, 33-year-old for
mer defensive back with the San
Diego Chargers, as defensive sec
ondary coach of the Texas Ag
gies.
“We feel that Harris is well
qualified and will be an asset to
our staff," Stallings said.
Harris, after playing six sea
sons for the Chargers, has been
coaching the past four years on
the West Coast. He was defen
sive coordinator for the Spokane,
Wash., club in the Continental
League last year. Prior to that
he was defensive coach two years
at Bolsa Grande High in Garden
Grove, Calif, and served one year
as offensive advisor at Cal West
ern in San Diego.
Harris, a bachelor who stands
6-0 and weighs 170, was an out-<
standing running back at San
Longhorns Down
Pedro, Calif., High School. He
played one season at Harbor Jun
ior College in California and two
seasons at McNeese College in
Lake Charles, La.
He signed as a free agent with
San Diego and made All-AFL as
a defensive back his first three
seasons. During his six seasons
the Chargers won one AFL title
and five division championships.
Harris was born July 24, 1936,
in Denver, Colo., but moved to
the West Coast when he was two
years old.
A&M’s Smith Goes
Aggie Wrestlers To Wake Forest
The Texas A&M Wrestling
team traveled to Austin Satur
day and was surprised by a
strong t.u. team. They were also
surprised to have only one backer
in the stands, a female.
The Ags couldn’t seem to be
able to get started. Glenn Burt,
at 118, fell victim to a good cross
body ride and lost his match by
decision. A&M did not improve
as Terry Pritchard was pinned at
126. John Paul Jones, a fresh
man, was decisioned in a closer
match than the score (13-7) in
dicated but Mike Snyder, who
just moved up from 126 to 142,
was pinned. Gary Leverett at 150
was decisioned in a very close
match, 3-1.
A&M Athletic Director and
Head Football Coach Gene Stall
ings announced today that defen
sive end coach Ralph Smith has
resigned in order to accept a post
as defensive line coach at Wake
Forest University in Winston-
Salem, N. C.
Aggie Golfers
Off To Laredo
Coach Henry Ransom and a
six-man Texas A&M golf team
left Tuesday morning for Laredo
where they’ll compete in the Bor
der Olympics golf tournament
Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
Richard Ellis, senior from Pam-
pa, led qualifying rounds to fin
ish number one on the squad.
Steve Veriato, a freshman from
Hilo, Hawaii, finished second.
Senior Duke Butler was third,
followed by sophomores Tommy
Shelton and Tommy Gilbert and
junior college transfer Dean Fau-
cett.
Butler and Shelton are from
College Station; Gilbert is from
Jacksboro and Faucett, who
played at Schriener Institute, is
from Garland.
All six will play in the stroke
"play tournament. The low four
scores will count in the team
total.
At this point in the match the
score was 19-0. However at 158
Andrew Beck, the captain of the
team, was about to get things
started for the Aggies. From the
beginning of his match he was in
command and after the early part
of the second period it was all
over for the Longhorn. At 167
Jerry Chapin made it increasing
ly clear that the Ags were out to
win this match. As he dominated
his opponent for the entirety of
his match to win by decision 12-1.
At 177 Dave Herzik, a junior out
classed his opponent in a tight
one and by decision 13-11. In the
190 lb. class A1 Leskinen wrestled
his way to an 8-1 lead at the be
ginning of the third period. Later
in the third period Leskinen
pinned his opponent for the Ags
final five points. The score was
now 19-16 and if A&M were able
to field a heavyweight they would
have had a chance. As it were
they were forced to forfeit the
last match and come home de
feated for the first time by a
score of 24-16.
Stallings revealed that Wake
Forest Coach Cal Stoll had con
tacted him earlier about talking
to Smith concerning the job at
Wake Forest.
Smith, in accepting the new
post, said, “I’m deeply apprecia
tive to Coach Stallings for having
given me the opportunity to get
into college coaching. I’ve gained
valuable experience in my five
years here and I’m looking for
ward to the new challenge at
Wake Forest.”
Smith, a 31-year-old bachelor,
played defensive end for the Tex
as Aggies three seasons, 1958-59-
60 and was graduated in the
spring of 1961 with a degree in
physical education.
He stayed on at A&M one year,
coaching the ends on the Fish
squad. Then he went to Orange
(Tex.) High School where he was
end coach for two seasons, 1962-
63. In 1964 he was line coach at
Odessa (Tex.) High School. He
joined the Texas A&M staff in
December, 1964, when Stallings
took over the A&M football reins.
The Ags wrestle t.u. again,
here on March 14 at 7:00 p.m. By
then they hope to have a heavy
weight (there must be one some
where on campus).
Smith, who was born in Bor-
ger, Tex., on Jan. 12, 1939, was
an outstanding end on some great
Phillips (Tex.) High School teams
coached by the late Chesty Walk-
