Battalion Sports Editor
Coach Ednory Bellard was all
smiles again Tuesday afternoon at
his weekly press conference. The
rookie head mentor is much more
talkative after a win, and he
smiles more.
The smiles won’t last too long
as Bellard has two big problems
facing him and his Aggies this
week.
The first is what to do about
Rice and the second is what to
do about defensive ends.
Three defensive ends which in
clude two starters are doubtful
for this week’s encounter against
Rice.
Senior left end Max Bird, in
jured against Arkansas, has been
working out this week but is not
hack at full speed.
“We are making plans to play
without Max Saturday,” Bellard
said.
Paul Hulin, starter on the right
iside, hurt a shoulder against
SMU and is also not ready to
play.
Also injured is Don Long who
replaced Bird in last Saturday’s
contest. Long suffered a knee
injury.
To remedy this situation, Bel
lard has switched freshman Glenn
Bujnoch from offensive tackle to
defensive end. Mike Bruton, who
caused SMU quarterback Keith
Bobo to fumble late in last week’s
game, and freshman Blake
Schwarz are also available for
duty.

Green and Bubba Bean may be
ready to play against Rice.
Bellard feels Rice will give his
Aggies all they can handle Sat
urday afternoon.
“They throw and run real well,”
Bellard said. “They’re a darn fine
offensive football team. They
have a great passer and great re
ceivers. Tight end Skip Butler
gives them a lot of help because
he can catch in the clutch and in
heavy traffic.
“Quarterback Bruce Gadd is a
capable passer and he leads the
conference. They just have a lot
of talent in the offense.
“Defensively they are very
sound also. They’re big, aggres
sive and active. Safety Bruce
Henley did as much in they’re
win as anyone on the team return
ing punts and covering Arkansas’
receivers.”
Leaks-Led ‘Horns
Leading Stat Battle
The offense is full of Leaks,
but the defense isn’t, and so Texas
has clinched a tie for its fifth
straight Southwest Conference
football championship.
Statistics released Tuesday
show fullback Roosevelt Leaks
and the bruising Longhorn
ground game at the head of the
SWC offensive pack and the de
fense holding a wide lead in the
vital category of touchdowns al
lowed.
The bullish sophomore from
Brenham increased his rushing
lead with a two-touchdown, 162-
yard effort against Baylor last
Saturday. He's now averaging
117.8 yards per game rushing and
he also took over the tandem of
fense (yards gained rushing and
receiving) lead at 120.3 yards. In
both categories, Arkansas junior
tailback Dickey Morton is the
runnerup with 106.8 yards and
115.8.
Leaks also moved up to a tie
for second in scoring at 6.3 points
per game and held sixth place in
total offense behind five quarter
backs.
And for the first time this sea
son, Texas replaced Texas Tech
as the total offense leader, 371.1
yards per game to 370.2. Tech had
led since rolling up 615 yards in
its opening game against Utah.
And Texas increased its rushing
offense lead over Tech to 290.9
yards per game against 253.4 per
game for the Raiders.
Texas remained in fourth
place in total defense, but the
Longhorn defenders have allowed
only seven touchdowns in eight
games. That’s almost a two-to-
one spread on defensive leader
Baylor (13 TD’s in eight games)
and fifth place Tech (13 in nine).
It’s also an average of one touch
down yielded for every 80.6 plays
the opposition runs.
The Texas offense, meanwhile,
is averaging a touchdown for ev
ery 26.3 offensive snaps while Ar
kansas is scoring once every 27.2
plays and Tech once every 32.0.
Texas also threatens season-
long leader SMU in rushing de
fense. The Mustangs are allowing
119.1 yards per game to Texas’
123.4.
In addition to Leaks taking
over the tandem lead, there were
two new pace-setters in individ
ual categories.
Rice’s Edwin Collins moved into
a tie with teammate Gary But
ler in receptions, both with 33 for
an average of 4.1 per game. SMU
freshman Kenny Harrison remain
ed third at 4.0 and defending SWC
receiving champ Mike Reppond
of Arkansas held fourth at 3.7.
Another Owl took over the punt
return lead. Bruce Henley return
ed seven for 104 yards in the vic
tory over Arkansas and is now
averaging 15.5 yards on 14 re
turns. SMU’s Kris Silverthorn,
the national leader before being
beaten out by one-tenth of a yard
last week, also lost his SWC lead
by the same margin this week. He
has returned 25 for a 15.4-yard
average.
Kickers rewrote long-distance |
records for the year Saturday.
Texas A&M’s Pat McDermott got
off a 54-yard field goal jn tlie yic-^
tory over SMU and Texas’ Alan
Lowry boomed a quick kick 82
yards.
In for praise for performances
against SMU were defensive
tackles Boice Best, Bill Wiebold,
linebackers Grady Hoermann, Ed
Simdnini and Kent Finley.
>“Boice played super against
SMU,” Bellard said. “He’s played
real well since the conference
games began. He’s been hanjpered
by injuries early in the season
and wasn’t in real good condi
tion. He’s well now and he’s play
ing excellently.”
Bellard also had something nice
to say about the offense.
“For a quarter last week we
looked like a good offensive foot
ball team,” he said.
He also singled out freshman
Ronnie Hubby for his play. Hub
by scored once and made great
blocks to clear Skip Walker on
his touchdown runs.
“He has natural running abili
ty, good balance, great strength
and is a solid individual,” Bellard
said. “He grins all the time and
is just a great kid.”
Bellard theorized on fumbles
and freshman as all three touch
downs were scoi’ed by freshmen
backs and the Aggies have only
lost one fumble in two games.
“Fumbles aren’t something you
can work on stopping in practice,”
he said. “It’s just something you
can’t figure out. Some of it has
been caused by inexperience. It’s
a long way from Del Valle, Kirby-
ville and Clovis to Southwest
Conference football.”
