Page 4 College Station, Texas Friday, November 12, 1971 THE BATTAUOI Fish down Tech Picadors in closing minutes, 15-lfl Texas A&M refused three times to take advantage of Texas Tech gifts in the third quarter only to erase a 10-7 Picador lead with four minutes left in the game with a 54 yard drive in 10 plays to take their third SWC freshman win, 15-10, here Thursday night. Tech had taken the lead by driving 88 yards in 17 plays, eat ing up eight minutes on the clock, with a 31-yard field goal by Pat Henderson with 4:17 left in the game. A&M bounced right back with its drive following a 39-yard re turn by Allen Anderson, where Don Dean took over to direct the Fish the rest of the way to pay dirt with 1:01 left in the final stanza. The kicking game was the downfall of the Tech Picadors as Sidney Fielder took the opening game kickoff 87 yards for the first score and A1 Thurmond carried the ball 74 yards after a Lee Poulter punt to the Tech 12, but the defense stiffened to rub out HmETl ...only $1 Cliff's Notes are designed to help you be calm, cool and capable in the toughest literature courses.

Thurmond also caught six passes for 89 yards to keep the fans on their feet. Tech won the statistical battle, gaining 331 total yards to the Fish 221. In first downs, Tech gained 23 to the Aggies’ 11. A&M’s only bright spots were in passing, where Dean threw for 115 yards, and in return yardage. In rushing, however, the Picadors gained 322 yards to 124 for the Fish. Jerry Honore led the Fish rush ers, carrying the pigskin 10 times for 57 yards. John Bounds took runner-up honors, carrying 18 times for 45 yards. Tech’s Sammy Green led all ground gainers, carrying 18 times for 124 yards. Lawrence Williams netted 67 yards on 21 carries, but was caught numerous times be hind his line by onrushing Fish linemen, which dropped his yard age considerably. Williams hit five of 11 for 60 yards, with his favorite receiver being Jeff Jobe who hauled in four for 52 yards. It took Fielder only 11 seconds to break into the scoring column with a superb 87 yard return of Pat Henderson’s opening game kickoff. Honore threw the key block to clear the way. The kick by John Schluens was good and the Fish took an early 7-0 lead. Tech tied the score six seconds into the second quarter when Picador quarterback Williams ran 23 yards on a keeper when all his receivers were covered. The kick was good as the score stood 7-7. Tech’s Gary Bartel set up the score when he recovered an erant pitch from Dean to Fielder at the A&M 25. A&M’s first sustained drive of the evening was prematurely halt ed with Richard Salley’s inter ception of a Dean pass intended for Thurmond at the Tech 26. The remainder of the second quarter went by without any ma jor offensive drives, with the exception of Tech’s drive from their own 38 to the Fish 23, where Henderson’s field goal try was wide to the left with 19 seconds remaining in the half. This drive was highlighted by Williams pass ing to Jobe twice for 30 yards. Tech led the half in statistics, having 10 first downs and 159 yards total offense. Williams threw five times, completing three for 121 yards while the running lanes accounted for the remaining 38. A&M could amass only six first downs on 111 total yards. Sixty- seven of these yards were on the ground, while Dean’s three of nine completions added 44 paces. Turnovers were the big factor in the first half as A&M lost both a fumble and an interception, while Tech had no turnovers, though fumbling three times.

A&M ran two off- tackle plays for naught and Dean overthrew Bounds in the end- zone before Schluens was called in for a field goal try. The kick was wide to the right and the score stood 7-7 with six minutes left to go in the third quarter. A&M was given another prime opportunity to score when middle guard Dennis Henderson recover ed a Cliff Hoskins fumble at the Picador 34-yard line. Dean’s first play, a pass to Thurmond, result ed in a turnover when the ball was jarred loose after the recep tion at the Tech 16. Tech tried a third time to give A&M more points on the score- board but again the Fish refused. Williams fumbled while retreat ing to pass, and Fish defensive tackle Don Fortenberry recovered at the A&M 42. Dean’s passes netted the Tech 38 before the drive bogged down and Steve Canted had to punt. Canter’s punt went to the 12- yard line where Tech mounted the first sustained drive of the night, going 88 yards in 17 plays and consumed eight full minutes on the clock. The drive, however, got no further than the 14, where Henderson kicked a 31-yard field goal which put the Picadors ahead 10-7 with only 4:07 remain ing in the ball game. Anderson returned the kickoff 39 yards to the A&M 47, where the Fish began their offensive heroics. Dean’s mixing of passing and running plays carried the Fish over the Tech goal line with 1:01 left in the game. Bounds carried the final yard for the score. Big plays were passes from Dean to Thurmond which account ed for 37 of the 53 yards used to score. A&M went for two with a pass from Dean to Thurmond and the final score stood 15-10 when the final gun sounded.

They’ve worked very hard this fall, some running as many as 100 miles a week.” SMU is favored to win its fourth straight title with Texas and Rice as the top challengers.

Last year thousands of new books were published in America. Some are already for gotten. Others became best-sellers. Yet the best selling book of all time is probably not listed in your weekly book review. This book is the Bible. It contains the record of God's love for mankind and His wish to rec oncile man to Himself through Jesus Christ. That's quite an order, isn't it? To understand the meaning of life and our relation to God, we cannot lightly scan the pages of this Book like a recent novel. In fact, we must have the help of scholars and students of cen turies past. Your church represents generations of ac cumulated knowledge and faith which will help you discover, in fellowship with others, the mean ing and direction of life.
