Tracksters Shine, Owls Win
By Richard Campbell
Texas A&M took all of the
flashy races Saturday night but
the Rice Owls piled up points in
the field events to edge the Ag
gies in a mild upset in a quad
rangular meet in Kyle Field.
Rain fell for most of the meet
soaking tracksters and spectators
alike and at times making the
footing for the pole vaulters and
some running events treacherous.
The speed-to-burn Aggies cap
tured both sprints and tacked
on victories in both relays but
the depth-minded Owls swept the
pole vault and broad jump to
eke past A&M, 73 points to 72^
The other two teams, Texas
Christian and Arkansas hardly
figured in the overall meet as
they could notch but 18 Vz and
nine points respectively.
Rockie Woods bested his fresh
man nemisis Marvin Mills for the
first time in the 100-yard dash
but he had to blaze to a 9.3 read
ing to do it, the best in the SWC
this year. Mills finished second
in 9.4 and Scott Hendricks and
Donny Rogers both were timed in
9.6 to give A&M the top four
places. Woods also produced the
top time for the SWC by win
ning the 220-yard dash in 20.9.
Rogers and Hendricks tied for
third in 21.4.
Curtis Mills zipped to an ex
pected win in the 440-yard dash
but he was hardly pressed and
clocked a relatively slow 46.8.
With a first place by Ben
Greathouse in the high jump at
6-9 and Ronny Lightfoot’s 64-
9% shot put win, the Aggies led
for most of the meet until the
results of the pole vault and
broad jump were announced. The
Owls took the first four places in
the long jump and the first three
places in the pole vault to get
the points they needed to shade
the Ags.
But this unexpected perform
ance by the Owls failed to take
the shine off the Aggies’ two

relay units, especially the mile
relay quartet. Don Kellar led
off the race and kept A&M with
in striking distance as he came
home trailing Rice by only five
yards and handed the baton to
Harold McMahan. McMahan,
after a gruelling battle in the
pole vault where he finished
fourth, dropped the Aggies ten
yards off as he gave the stick
to Marvin Mills. The younger
Mills brother made up eight on
Rice’s Chip Grand jean as he
slipped the baton to anchorman
Curtis Mills.
This Mills brother, who is the
world’s record holder in the 440-
yard dash, gave Bill Askey a run
for the money as he poured it
on and finally passed him on the
final turn and outsprinted him
to the tape as the Aggies posted
a 3:09.7.

Netters Tie Horns, 3-3
Omar Smith, the Aggies ten
nis coach, kept his perfect home
record intact against the Uni
versity of Texas as his netters
rose to the occasion Saturday to
tie the Longhorns, 3-3.
No Smith-coached Aggie squad
has never lost to Texas on A&M
Varsity Courts since he came to
the campus in 1960.
The matches were played in
intermittant drizzle and the foot
ing at times was less than per
fect. Dickie Fikes turned in an
impressive performance for the
Aggies as he won his singles
match over previously No. 1
ranked Longhorn Avery Rush, 6-
1, 4-6, and 6-1.
Bruce Crumly lost to the pres
ent Longhorn ace John Nelson
6-2 and 6-2 while Tommy Con
nell dropped his match to Texas’
John Mozola, 6-4 and 6-3. Law-
ton Parks of A&M downed Rick
Murray, 6-2 and 6-4.
In the doubles action, the Ag
gies managed to gain a split.
