The tournament winner, Insti tute Mexicano Sequro Social, dominated in all its games, leav ing the A&M Fish and the Coun try Hix, of Bryan-College Station, in second and third place posi tions, respectively. A&M was the only one of the ten teams entered in the tour nament to lead IMSS at any point in the tournament, but condition ing and experience were the de termining factors in the outcome. IMSS, which hails from Mexico City, has players that have been playing and practicing together for the past six years. The A&M Fish squad, on the other hand, has been practicing the sport together for only four weeks, leaving a lot to be desired against a group of learned play ers. Texas A&M will host the South west Water Polo Championships November 5-6. Competition is open to all area teams. ENGINEERING AND OFFICE SUPPLY CORP. 10% Discount To Students • ENG. & ARCH.

The A&M Fish and IMSS were the only teams with any experi ence, the Aggies beating the Tex as University Frosh, the pre vious week, 9-6. At the end of the tournament, which came with the final cham pionship game between IMSS and the A&M Fish, officials for the tournament named the top ten players in tournament to make up the All Tournament Team. By BILL HENRY Assistant Sports Editor In a match marred by rainy weather, the Texas A&M B ten nis team won a decisive victory over Central Texas Junior Col lege. The Aggies won five of eight singles matches. Doubles matches were cancelled because of rain before any were completed. Billy Hoover, A&M’s top fresh man, defeated Central’s top play er, Francisco Cerom, in a split set, 7-5, 4-6 and 7-5. This match was the highlight of the meet with two tie breaker serves won by Hoover. Serom is the number two ranked junior in Mexico. Bill Wright, number two ranked freshman, defeated Skipper Hunt in a split set, 6-4, 4-6 and 6-1. Gerry Mills defeated Asghar Abid of Pakistan in straight sets, 6-3 and 6-3., Mitch Barker won over Gene Morris also in straight sets, 6- 2 and 6-3. In the final match, Doug Laughkauf defeated Antone DeKoning in a spectacular match, 7- 6, 4-6 and 7-6. This match also included two tie breaker serves won by the A&M player. Central Texas did not win a match until the fourth set. Hu bert© Isquizardo defeated Dennis Hirshfield in a split set, 6-2, 4-6 and 6-2. Stewart Bunn defeated Bill Pecor in straight sets, 6-3 and 6-2. The final victory for Central was Woody Van Ommerey over Don Smith in straight sets, 6-4 and 6-2. All the doubles matches were rained out before a winner could be determined but two games in each set were at least in progress. A&M’s Hoover and Wright lost the first set to the team of Hunt and Bunn, 4-6, hut were leading in the second, 5-2. Hirshfield and Baker took the first set over Isquizardo and Serom, 6-4, and were behind in the second, 4-3. Rugby team downs Dallas Saturday The Aggie rugby team rolled to its 17th straight victory this year Saturday, swamping the Dallas Rugby Club 42-4 on the wet, muddy Drill Field. Seven of their regular starters did not play, hut the A&M 15 still had some exciting moments. The usual strong running game was missing, and the contest was not as open as the Aggies usually play. John Collier made his first ap pearance as scrum-half, and he managed to launch some passes to the wings where Judd Quixall and Randy Harju were stopped just short of the Dallas line num erous times. Captain John Gunn was the high scorer for A&M, personally accounting for 22 of the Aggies’ 42 points. He made one try (4 points), two penalty goals (6 points) and six conversions (12 points).
