‘QUALITY FIRST’
Ags win twice but UT sweep
A&M falls two games behind Longhorns
By KEVIN COFFEY
Sports Editor
Clint Thomas, David Lockett
and Jim Juhl turned in sterling
pitching performances but it was
all the Aggies could do to gain
two wins over the feisty Rice
Owls in Southwest Conference
baseball action.
A&M captured the first game
of the series Friday but a split
of Saturdays doubleheader forces
the Ags to sweep the Texas Long
horns to win the conference title.
Texas swept three games from
TCU, boosting their record to
18-3. A&M is two games back at
16-5.
Juhl was the life saver for the
Aggies. The senior left hander
hurled in all three contests, pick
ing up two saves in the process.
Thomas hurled the Ags to a 4-3
win in the series opener but not
without Juhl’s help. The Aggie
fireman protected the slim A&M
lead by striking out the final two
Rice batters with just six pitches.
“I just went in to challenge the
hitters,” said Juhl. “If they were
going to beat me it was because
they hit my best pitch. Unless
they guess what the next pitch is,
I’ll take my chances on them hit
ting it.”
Thomas, pitching a nine inning
game for the first time this year,
tired in the ninth after a fine per
formance.
“I had to warm up a lot be
tween innings ‘cause of the rain
delays,” said Thomas’ “and this
was the longest I tried to throw
all year. I had better control of
my curve than I’ve had in a long
time.”
Jim Bratsen supplied the of
fensive punch for A&M with one
swing of the bat. The Junior
first baseman powered a Bruce
Henley curve ball over the 360
foot sign in right-center field for
three runs. Tommy Hawthorne,
Paul Miller and Jim Hacker had
singled before Bratsen’s shot.
Miller scored on Hacker’s safety.
The Owls had their chance to
capture the game with a big in
ning but a heads-up Aggie bench
noticed Ted Nowak had missed
third base while heading toward
home.
“Everyone was hollering ‘he
missed the bag’ so I just tagged
it,” said third sacker Hacker.
“Luckily the ump noticed it
also.”
Saturday’s parents day crowd
passed the 4,000 mark during the
rain plagued doubleheader but
few remained till the end.
Mike Pettit, the Owls ace hurl-
er, was tagged for 12 hits in 5
and two-thirds innings but A&M
could only push across four runs
to the Owls five.
A&M starter Perry Arthur
was chased from the mound aft
er yielding three runs in 1 and
two-thirds innings. A&M man
aged a tie at 4-4 but two Rice
home runs off reliever Jim Wal
lace spelled the difference. Ex-

The DIRECTOR'S FILM SERIES presents a film by LUIS BUNUEL
THE
EXTERMINATING
ANGEL
With Silvia Pinal, Enrique Rambal, Lucy Gallardo
Critics' Prize, Cannes Film Festival
One of Bunuel’s most imaginative works, this entertaining
black comedy anticipates THE DISCREET CHARM OF
THE BOURGEOISIE. Eighteen wealthy, influential people
attending an 'elegant dinner party gradually discover
that, for some inexplicable reason, they cannot leave the
room. Days pass, they run out of food and water, and
the glittering facade of their social existence
becomes shattered.
.. absolutely unforgettable ..
—Joseph Morgenstern, Newsweek
"...the summary of his ideas on society... gleefully he
watches society, placed in certain test conditions, breaking
down from its internal contradictions and falsities,
so that these rich, powerful, cultivated people become
before long openly no better than the malicious,
superstitious savages that, suggests Bunuel, they have
always been underneath."

Another MSC activity of the AGGIE CINEMA
cept for the round trippers, Wal
lace was impressive in his after
noon’s work.
Hacker, Bratsen, A1 Thur
mond, Fred Russ, Mike Frazier
and Sandy Bate all collected two
hits but the Ags couldn’t come up
with the clutch hit with men on
base. During the afternoon, A&M
stranded 11 men on the bases.
The Aggies loaded the bases in
the fourth with one out but could
only push two runs across. Coach
Tom Chandler said this may have
been the turning point of the con
test.
“We had all the makings for a
big inning but it just didn't ma
terialize,” said Chandler. “You
don’t get many chances like that
against Rice pitching.”
Sloppy baserunning hurt the
Rice cause in the finale as A&M
prevailed 7-4.
For the second time in the ser
ies, a big Owl rally was rubbed
out when the Ags won an appeal
play when a Rice runner missed
a base heading toward the plate.
Jackie Binks popped a muscle
in his arm and was only able to
throw two-thirds of an inning.
However, A&M got clutch relief
work from David Lockett.
Lockett, a sophomore from Cle
burne, pitched in his finest per
formance of the year with a 6 and
one-third innings of two run ball.
Lockett needed help from Perry
Arthur and Juhl to notch the vic
tory.
Rice, which played super de
fense through the series, faltered
midway through the final game.
The Aggies were able to take ad
vantage of the Owl miscues and
six bases on balls to help with
the offense.
Miller and Hawthorne each
knocked in two runs.
Hacker, the SWC’s leading hit
ter entering the series, did little
to jeopardize that standing with
his second straight 7 for 12 series.
A&M’s final action is against
UT Friday and Saturday in Aus- are sponsoring bus trips it|
