Owls at peak for Aggie game Saturday
By MICHAEL RICE
italion Sports Editor
A tossup game between two
lefensive powerhouses will avail
jsclf to the Texas Aggies this
Saturday in Houston as they face
i surprisingly stingy ball club in
He Rice Owls.
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

school record in the rushing de
partment.
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.

NEW YORK <A>)—A battle be
tween two of Dixie’s unbeaten
powerhouses and an Ivy League
classic have the college football
divining rods quivering like gui
tar strings this weekend.
History should repeat itself at
Hanover, N.H., where Dartmouth
blunts the Big Red’s Ed Marinaro,
recalling the notorious fifth down
in 1940 when Dartmouth broke a
14-game Cornell streak. History
only has to go back 12 months at
Columbus, Ga., where Georgia is
chosen over Auburn.
