Looking at the game with Ar kansas last Saturday, one would have to say this was the finest ball game for the Owls in a num ber of years, with halfback Stable Vincent leading the way for the offense in the rushing department. He racked up 68 yards on 25 carries in the game and needs only 23 more carries to set a THE BASEMENT COFFEEHOUSE Presents National Coffeehouse Circuit Performer RON NIGRINI At The MSC—8-12 p. m.

Rice’s passing game has also perked up this year as new head coach, Bill Peterson, is seeking a strong passing game for his fu ture teams. The Owls need to com plete 34 of 60 attempts to break the present school mark of 1421 yards set in 1949. The man throwing the ball for Peterson this season is junior Bruce Gadd (181), who has at tempted 103 passes for the sea son to net 592 yards in 48 comple tions. Following close behind in his footsteps is senior letterman Philip Wood (175), who has pass ed 111 times for 495 yards. His longest completion was against LSU for 39 yards. In the fullback slot stands Kim Malone (204), who is next to Vin cent in the rushing department, while Steve Ogletree (184) is his backup. The split end formation for the Owls includes muscular Bob Brown (189), who is trying to come out of his slump from last year in his receiving duties. He has caught 34 passes for 141 yards, his biggest gainer being 39 yards against LSU. The man behind him is Carl Swierc, who weighs in at 185 pounds. Tight ends are lettermen Gary Butler (234) and Joe Buck (194). Butler is leading the Owls in pass receiving with 17 catches for 245 yards, his biggest catch being for 48 yards against Tulane in a non conference clash. Bubba Berg (182) and Ron Ar- ceneaux (192) fulfill the flanker obligations in the pro-type of fense, the two being almost equal in pass receiving yardage and having nothing in the rushing. Tackles for the offensive line will be Sammy Johnson (231), and Michael Goode (213) at the left side while Ron Waedemon (247) and Can Carlton (193) work in the right tackle hole. Guards on the offensive squad are Bart Goforth (234) and Tobin Haynes (203) on the left with Randy Lee (223) and David Van diver (207) on the right side. Centering the ball for quarter- hack Gadd will be Wright Moody (196), senior mainstay at this position while his new backup is Tommy Godard, a 219 pound sophomore. On defense, Rice proved last week that it can be just every bit as stingy to its opponent as A&M has been proving for the past several ball games. With an overall light defensive squad, the Owls should be able to keep up with most offensive speed sters on the field. Standing at the front of the defense will be tackles Bryan Davenport (225), a sophomore; John Paul Hershey (214), Larry Medford (228), and Joe Suggs (200). John Kelly (200) and Larry Baugh (188) will be playing at the weak linebacker position, while teammates Rodrigo Barnes (212) and Richard Hollas (196) will be alternating at the middle line backer post. Strong linebackers are LaRay Breshers (199) and David Snellings (191). 196-pound Lary Walling, who stands at 6-2, will be playing at the left end spot along with Pat Kelly (197). They will be joined by right ends Steve Pruitt (202) and John Swords (200), both soph omores on the squad. David Grounds will take up the monster man position with a backup man in Brad Tally (184), a sophomore, while Tally’s class mates Bruce Henley (174) and Preston Anderson (188) will be moving in the safety position. The comerback slots will be filled with lightweights Chris Hale (184) and Bill Latourette (169), both senior lettermen on the left side of the defense. Right cornerbacks are seniors Mike Ty ler (187) and Gilbert King (172). The Rice Owls don’t look to be impressive statistically, but Peter son’s influence seems to be tak ing effect both on the running game and passing attack of the offense. The defense also has come alive within the last couple of games to hold back even the toughest of offenses and should do well in their stand against the Aggies, whose offense is begin ning to take form.
