The Aggies shot 48.4 per cent for the game while SMU could hit only 38.2 per cent of their field goal attempts. Early in the game, it looked as though it was going to be all SMU as the Mustangs intimidat ed the Aggies to a 10-2 lead. The Aggies wasted no time in coming back to tie the game at 15 all whereupon the lead changed nine times for the remainder of the half. In the second half, it was again nip and tuck for a couple of min utes until Mike Floyd sank two free throws with 17:14 to go to give the Aggies a 45-44 lead which they never lost. The Mustangs were playing without the benefit of star player Sammy Hervey, the second lead ing scorer in the conference, who stayed in Dallas because of his low grades. Hervey, a 6-foot-7 215-pound forward, actually was eligible for the game under SWC rules. “He decided to stay at home to see if he can make up an incom plete in two courses,’’ an SMU spokesman said. “It was his de cision.” Hervey could become eligible for next semester anytime he makes up the incomplete courses, the spokesman said. SMU hosts Texas Saturday night but SMU coach Bob Prew itt said Hervey will not play in that game either. A&M travels to Fort Worth Saturday for another conference tilt against the TCU Horned Frogs. Texas 104, TCU 53 AUSTIN—Texas opened South west Conference play Tuesday night, whipping Texas Christian 104-53 in the largest margin of victory by a Longhorn in the modern era. | Due to Hie rapidly advancing paper liMtage. we at Piqqly Wiqqly are iskkiq our customers to return Hie brge used grocery bags either ours or omeone elses.

TWS closes down for 1974 season Dan W. Holloway, President of Texas World Speedway, announc ed that all motorsports activities at the ‘3‘World’s Fastest Speed way” would be curtailed until the end of the energy crisis. In making the announcement, Holloway said, “It is with great relctance that we announce that Texas World Speedway is cancel ling all of its 1974 events. We were quite enthusiastic about our 1974 season due to the two pres tigious and exciting events we al ready had planned and the poten tial that they offered us.” TWS had scheduled four days of National Championship Ameri can Motorcycle Association events for May 2, 3, 4, and 5, and the Texas 500 for Indy cars, the fourth 500 on the United States Auto Coub scheduled for Sunday, September 1, on Labor Day. Holloway continued, “We wish to make it clear to everyone that the energy crisis was not the only deciding factor. Establishing two new events would be difficult un der normal conditions and during the energy crisis would be almost impossible. We felt that to sit out the crisis was the only alternative. Had the race been established like all present major sports events of the nation, then we would have continued with their promotion.” In concluding Hollogway said “We feel Texas World Speedway is one of the nation’s finest motor-/ sports facilities. We are looking forward to the end of the energy crisis and to the resumption of activities. We do wish to thank publicly the officials of all the sanctioning bodies we deal with for their understanding of our situation.” P-aL'acLs TODAY 5:30- 7:35 - 9:40 THE CRIME WAR TO EINID ALL CRIME WARS.
