The Ags’ record now stands at 4-1 for the season. The Sam Houston Bearkats were the fast starters, taking a quick 8-0 lead. With goals from Cissy Auclair, Sally Morisse, and Cindy Gough, A&M tied it at 10-10 and Sam Hous ton promptly called timeout. The Bearkats then increased their lead to 21-12 but that was as far as they ever got. A&M caught fire and behind the shooting of Gough and Morisse, took over the lead with five minutes remaining in the first half. They never again trailed. With so many fouls being com mitted in the aggressive game, the Landry unsure about Poke-Redskin game Associated Press DALLAS — Dallas Cowboy Coach Tom Landry, a down-to- earth realist, said Tuesday he doesn’t see how his young defense can stop Washington’s high-scoring offense Saturday in a showdown for a National Football League wild card ’ playoff berth. “I just don’t see how you can keep ’em from scoring, said Landry. I hope we can attack their defense the way other teams have this year. Landry said his team was still somewhat shell-shocked after Sun day’s 31-17 loss to St. Louis, the leaders in the National Conference Eastern Division. “I think you coidd say the team isn’t in a very good humor . • • That may be good . . . You just don t get over a bad whipping overnight, said Landry. Landry said he wasn t certain what effect the St. Louis beating would have on the Cowboys for Saturday’s nationally televised game in Texas Stadium. ^ Many working people like you qualify for tax-sheltered savings at BB&L. “I don’t know the psychology of the game and I’ve been in it a long time, ’ said Landry. “If we have a chance against Washington, it will have to be in a high scoring game. Washington has a great offense.” He said Washington had the edge in maturity and consistency. “They have given up more points than normal but they are still a very consistent football team,” said Landry. The Cowboys and Redskins are tied at 8-4 with two games to go. St. Louis is 9-3. A Cowboy victory would assure Dallas the wild card berth even if they lose their last game with the New York Jets. The same holds true for Washington which hosts Philadelphia in the last game of the year. Both teams are still alive in the championship race but St. Louis uld have to lose twice. One of our best games of the year was against Washington in that overtime game,” said Landry. “There’s no doubt they have the edge because quarterback Billy Kilmer is probably having his greatest year.” Told the Cowboys had been made early one-point favorites by the oddsmakers in Las Vegas, Landry just shook his head: “I don’t know how they make the odds, either, for whatever that’s worth.” /ou second half consisted mainly of a battle of free throws. The Aggies came out on top, shooting a remark able 72 per cent of their attempted free throws. Sam Houston did out-rebound the Aggies by seven, but their downfall was in the turnover de partment. The Bearkats yielded 36 turnovers to the Ags while A&M gave up only 15. Gough and Morisse were the high scorers for A&M, getting 18 and 16 points respectively. Auclair had 11 points while Margaret Byrne scored 7. Dana Callaway, Beth Mamaliga, Carol McAllister, and Diane Quitta also contributed to the final score. Quitta led in assists with 10.
