STALLINGS
Coach Gene Stallings was quite at ease Saturday
afternoon following the annual Maroon-White game. After
viewing the 20-7 Maroon victory from the press box, Stallings
was nothing but a large bag of high hopes.
“I am very pleased with the way spring training
progressed,” he said. “We had a lot more pleasant surprises
than we’ve had disappointments. There were a few players
who came through and played a little better than we thought
they could,” he contended.
Stallings singled out several players including Doug
Neill, a 6-1, 186-pound fullback from Houston, Mike Park,
6-2, 216-pound squadman from Huntsville, and Leonard
Millsap, 6-0, 220-pound squadman from Fredericksburg as
having very good spring.
The Aggie coach was especially pleased with the play of
some of the sophomores, with Lex James and Brad Dusek
being at the top of the list. “James is going to be a good
one,” said the smiling Stallings. “Dusek is a big kid and is fast
enough to be a real good football player,” he added.
“I think we have a little more depth than we’ve ever had
and if we don’t have a lot of injuries I think we have a chance
to have a pretty good ball club, Stallings said.

The white team scored first
but the favored Maroon re
grouped Saturday on Kyle Field
to defeat the white’s 20-7 in
Texas A&M’s annual intrasquad
spring football game before a
crowd of 8,640.
The maroon team, the Aggies
first team, was intact as Coach
Gene Stallings kept it that way
instead of dividing the two
squads for the spring game.
Joe Mac King a junior letter-
man from Mineola shocked the
crowd with a 61 yard bomb to
Jimmy Sheffield on the first of
fensive play for the underdog
white team. That play came
with 12:51 remaining in the
opening period with Mike Bel-
lar’s extra point giving the
White team a 7-0 lead.
Mike Lord, maroon middle line
backer fell on a white fumble at
the white 28 just seconds after a
maroon mistake had been recov
ered by Bland Smith at the same
point.
An offsides penalty moved the
ball five yards closer and Marc
Black maroon fullback gained 10
yards to the 13.
Steve Burks then carried to
the 11 and on the next play
took a pitch from quarterback
Lex James on an option play
and went into the end zone to
cut the white lead to a point but
the try for extra point failed.
James who is the number one
quarterback at this time did not
attempt a pass in the first quar
ter but began to unlimber his
arm in the second stanza and
used this to open the white de
fense and produced two second
period touchdowns that rounded
out the scoring for the game.
James hit on 7 of 9 passes in
the period for 135 yards and a
touchdown.
That touchdown pass with 7:33
left in the half was a sneaky as
James rolled to one side, dodged
a couple of tacklers and then
turned and threw to Marc Black
all alone on the other side and
he marched in from ten yards
out. The conversion play was a
two-pointer with James hitting
split end Joe Herr with a pass
that was partially deflected.
James had scored the second
maroon touchdown four minutes
earlier with a 4 yard rollout after
guiding the maroon 99 yards
after stopping the white team on
four plays from the five.
Brad Dusek the games leading
rusher with 89 yards on 8 car
ries broke away for the longest
run of the day when he slim-
mered through the defense for
59 yards before Chris Johnson
caught him from behind. Two
plays later James rolled out for
26 yards to set up his TD scam
per.
The maroon defense which al
lowed the whites only 65 yards
rushing on 50 attempts stopped
them again with another goal
line stand in the third period as
they tried unsuccessfully to pene
trate the maroon defense from
the four on four tries.
Maroon offensive guard Leon
ard Forey a junior from Neder
land suffered the only injury in
the contest spraining a knee on
the last play of the first half but
Coach Stallings said after the
game that he would be okay.
King, the quarterback for the
whites hit on 8 of 16 passes for
132 yards for the whites whose
leading rusher was fullback Doug
Robbins who gained 46 yards on
17 tries. Sheffield gained 24
yards and Garry Davis 23.
Two players on each team
were credited with 4 tackles each
as linebacker Grady Hoermann
and guard Greg Hall had that
number for the whites and
guards Boice Best and Van Odom
for the maroon.
Middle linebacker Gary Mc-
Coffrey and guard Tommy Dea
ton were credited with 11 assist
ed tackles for the whites and free
safety Mike Bunger was credit
ed with 10 for the maroon.

LT. JOHNNY GRIFFIN.
Editor:
With the end of the semester coming
up, I imagine there are a lot of Ags who
are stuck with books that the bookstores
can not buy. Well, I have a solution: send
the books to Vietnam. I am teaching En
glish at a small school in Da Nang City,
RVN. The school is in bad need of any
kind of books that the kids can use as
reference material.
A book of any kind and a small dona
tion to cover the shipping cost would be a
most appreciated gift by the kids and my
self.
I know this is asking a lot, but Aggies
are known for giving a lot. If there are
any donations, please send them to my
address and I will be happy to take them
to the school.
