The Rice Owls will host the Texas
A&M track team this Saturday in
Rice Stadium as the Aggies begin
their second week of outdoor com
petition.
The Aggies of Coach Charles
Thomas displayed their depth and
strength in the field events by nar
rowly defeating the University of
Texas by a score of 68-64. Texas
A&M outscored the Longhorns
31-19 in the field events to create a
cushion strong enough to withstand
a late Texas rally.
The Aggies were without the
services of six scholarship athletes:
half milers Tony Wheeler and Mark
Gauger, hurdlers Curtis Collier and
Kent Figgs, sprinter Reggie Jamer-
son and pole vaulter Pat Ruehle. All
are out with varying degrees of leg
injuries.
Despite their absence and the
Horns winning both the sprint and
mile relays, A&M managed to build
an insurmountable 68-50 lead with
two events remaining. A Texas
sweep in the two-mile run and the
mile relay made the final score
close.
Shifton Baker, A&M’s outstand
ing senior hurdler, was the meet’s
only double winner. Ill most of last
week. Baker came on to win the
120-yard high hurdles in 13.7 sec
onds, one of the best times of his
career. He also won the 440-yard in
termediate hurdles in 52.3 seconds,
finishing 10 yards ahead of his
nearest competitor.
Although Wheeler, perhaps the
conference’s top half miler, was
sidelined, A&M swept all three
places in th e 880-yard run. Jim
Brannen and Tom Glass finished
one-two in 1:53.3 and Joel Vogt was
third in 1:54.5.
The Aggies also swept the discus
with Steve Steward, Frank West
and Tim Scott placing one-two-
three. Freshman Jerry Strong ob
tained the Only points in the pole
vault for either team by being the
only vaulter to clear a height.
Strong vaulted his season’s personal
best of 15-6 feet.
West won the shot put with a toss
of 55-8 Vfe feet with Scott placing
third. Sprinter Ray Brooks won the
220-yard dash in 21.5 and was sec
ond in the 100-yard dash in 9.8 sec
onds. Chuck Butler was third in
both events with times of 9.9 and
21.7 seconds.
Phillip Steen and Strong placed
second and third in the long jump
with respective jumps of 23-2 and
20-11 feet. Lyn Byrd was second in
the high jump, clearing 6-8 feet
while Manfred Kohrs was second in
the mile with a time of 4:09.5.
Teammate Lane Mitchell was third
in 4:11.2.
Ron McGonigle and Karl Figgs
placed two-three in the 440-yard
dash with clockings of 49.8 and
50.3.
Texas, although winning nine of
the 16 events, was unable to over
come the A&M lead. The Horns of
Coach Cleburne Price were also
nagged by injuries when former
Olympian, Johnny Jones suffered a
slight muscle pull after anchoring
Texas’ winning sprint relay.
The Homs’ other Olympian, Paul
Craig of Canada, won the mile in
4:07.5 and was second in the two-
mile with a time of 9:07.2.
