A&M risks unbeaten record
on the road against SMU
By TONY GALLUCHI
Sports Editor
Texas A&M takes its once-tested,
unblemished SWC record of 3-0 to
Dallas tonight for the first of four
tough road games in the quest of the
school’s 10th basketball champion
ship.
The Aggies have always had trou
ble winning in Dallas. In fact they
haven’t in four years. This year
promises to be no easier as the Mus
tangs of coach Sonny Allen return all
but one starter from last year and add
two of the most looked at newcomers
in the Southwest Conference in JC-
transfer Ollie Hoops and freshman
Dave Piehler.
• “That’s an important ballgame for
us,” said Aggie head coach Shelby
Metcalf. “Arkansas sure kept the
pressure on yesterday (beating Texas
55-50 in Austin).
“We re gonna put Rynn (Wright)
on (Brad) Branson. Branson’s 6-10
but he’s also very strong and Rynn
can stand there and muscle with
him. If Rynn gets into foul trouble
then we have two options — we can
either put Rudy (Woods) on him or
we can use Claude (Riley).
“Then they have Harris (Richard),
he’s a sound, all-around player.
We ll start Rudy on him. And of
course Billy Allen gives us fits and
that’s a problem for us because he’s
so quick and he’s got good size. Goff
will start on him. Tyrone (Ladson)
will be able to give us some relief
there. If we have both Tyrone and
Goff on 6-4 (Phil) Hale. Britton will
start out on Hale. At the other for
ward they’ve started Hoops and
Piehler and (Gordon) Welch has
played there. Vernon (Smith) will
start the game on Johnnie James, the
one they started there last night.
They got quite a few people they
bring in to change their lineup.
“It’s so easy to get up there and get
to running with them. They’ll work
the zone press on you. We’ve just got
to be patient with them.
The zone is something the Aggies
have been seeing more of lately.
“It’s not gonna cause us trouble.
Minnesota had a better zone but, the
thing is, sometimes they (SMOj

Northgate — At the corner across from the Post Office
There are two teams currently tied
for the lead in the Southwest Confer
ence and Texas coach Abe Lemons
has already cast his vote for which
one he thinks is going to stay there.
“I think Arkansas is going to be
first in the conference,’ said
Lemons. “They are just a better ball
club than we are. I don’t know how
you can sum it up better than that. ”
Lemons’ opinion came following
Arkansas’ 55-50 victory oyer Texas in
Austin — the second straight year
the Razorbacks have defeated the
Longhorns in the Super Drum.
The victory boosted Arkansas into
a first-place tie with Texas A&M at
3-0 with Texas Tech a half step back
at 3-1. Every other team in the con
ference has at least two league losses.
Arkansas, employing a rarely-used
zone defense, hit its customary 50
percent from the field while limiting
Texas to only 39 percent.
“This was the worst I’ve ever seen
Texas shoot, said Arkansas’ Alan

point halftime lead. “We went to a
zone with about seven minutes left in
the first half and stayed with it. It’s
the most zone I’ve played since I’ve

Although Texas came within four
