of the Red Raiders’ interceptions,
one going all the way for the
third touchdown. To this, he add
ed two tackles, got credit for
breaking up two passes, and did
a fine job on returns.
It was the same old story for
the Aggies, with the defense turn
ing in its usual outstanding per
formance. It was the same story
also in the respect that A&M
mistakes gave Tech all its touch
downs.
The first quarter looked like
the defensive battle the game was
supposed to be, with the first
first down not being made until
the Red Raiders’ third possession.
Two more followed, and Tech
faced a third and one situation
at the A&M 14. Charles Napper
tried quarterback sneaks twice,
but the Aggie defense wouldn’t
allow him any yardage, and the
ball went over on downs.
On the second play from scrim
mage after that, quarterback Lex
James tried to pitch to Mark
Green, who was playing tailback
for the first time this year. The
toss was way off target and Dove
covered it on the six.
It took Tech three plays to
score, Joe Barnes hitting Robby
Best for one yard with 57
seconds left in the period. Don
Grimes kicked the extra point.
The Raiders grot started the
next time they got the ball, but
penalties pushed them back to
their own 10 twice. Brad Dusek,
with Hugh McElroy shaken up,
took a Johnny Odom punt at the
A&M 45, broke a tackle, and was
hit at the 43. He fumbled, and
Russell Ingram recovered. Seven
plays later, James Mosley dove
in for the score. The Grimes con
version made it 14-0 with 7:26
to go in the half.
Tech fumbled twice in this
stretch, and A&M players recov
ered, but the officials ruled the
ball dead in both cases.
Dove returned a punt from his
own 28 to the Aggie 48, but Dusek
stopped the threat with a crucial
interception at the 20.
Early in the second half, Lee
Hitt picked off a Barnes aerial
at the Tech 41, and returned it
to the 18. With a third and goal
from the nine, James hit Homer
May for the first Aggie offensive
touchdown in 14 quarters. The
previous one came late in the
Wichita State game on a keeper
by Joe Mac King.
This drive went 18 yards in
six plays. The point after by Pat
McDermott put it at 14-7 with
only five minutes gone in the
half.
A&M had a chance to even it
up when Bill Wiebold fell on a
Tech fumble two plays later, 29
yards from pay dirt. But, Dove

got in the picture, making an
interception at the 16.
At the beginning of the fourth
quarter, Dove again hurt the Ag
gies, intercepting another James
pass. This time he went all the
way for the score. The conver
sion gave the Raiders a 21-7 lead.

Still no word
on condition
of Lin Piao
WASHINGTON (^P) — The
United States received strong
assurances on the well-being of
Communist China’s party chair
man Mao Tse-tung before his
meeting Friday with Emperor
Haile Salassie of Ethiopia, but
there is only silence on the fit
ness of his designated successor,
the ailing minister of defense Lin
Piao.
Reports that Lin, who has long
suffered from tuberculosis, is
either dead or dying are being
treated with great caution in
official circles here. But specu
lation persists that the slight
general who masterminded Ko
rean War strategy two decades
ago is playing some central role
in the drama of succession now
thought to be taking place in
Peking.
picked off a center snap that
flew past the line of scrimmage
and returned it from the A&M
20 to the eight. Two plays later,
Doug McCutchen ran around
right end for the last touchdown.
Grimes added another point to
produce the final result.
Doug Neill led Aggie rushers
with 49 yards in 13 carries. James
passed for 64 yards, with six of
19 being completed for one touch
down. Two were intercepted. The
top receiver in the game was
Robert Murski, who caught three
for 44 yards. In his debut as a
running back, Green ran eight
times for 31 yards.
Official tackle charts showed
Grady Hoermann with seven un
assisted and four assisted stops.
Steve Luebbehusen had six and
five and a pass broken up, Wie
bold got five and three, plus a
fumble, and Hitt made seven
tackles and intercepted a pass.
McElroy was shaken up only
temporarily, but split end Tommy
Goodwin broke an ankle after
making a five yard gain on an
end around in the second quarter.
