Last shot doesn’t fall
as Hogs drop Aggies
By BILL ROBINSON
Assistant sports editor
Texas A&M went one-for-
two on shots at the buzzer last
night. Unfortunately for the
Aggies, the one miss came at the
end of the game giving Arkan
sas a 59-58 victory.
It was the Aggies’ fourth con
secutive setback in Southwest
Conference action andthe sec
ond straight one-point decision.
But this game could easily have
gone the other way.

A Doug Lee layup rolled
across the rim and into the
hands of Arkansas center Joe
Kleine as time ran out ending a
remarkable comeback attempt.
Coach Shelby Metcalf was
pleased with the team’s perfor
mance.
“Our guys played real tough
all night,’’ Metcalf said. “It was a
great comeback. We just missed
a couple of shots that could
have won the game for us.’’
But the Aggies did make a
few shots toward the end that
brought the 3,329 fans in G.
Rollie White Coliseum to their
feet.
A&M trailed by eight points
when Kleine slammed the ball
in with just over four minutes
remaining, but it was all Aggies
from there on.
Kenny Brown scored five of
his 12 points in the closing min
utes of the game, including a
30-foot jumper; A1 Pulliam
stuffed in a shot that was hang
ing on the rim, and Darnell Wil
liams hit a 16-footer with 20 sec
onds left to pull the Aggies
within to one.
Todd Holloway then fouled
Scott Rose on the in-bounds
play, fouling out with 13 sec
onds remaining. Arkansas
called a time-out to sort out
strategy for the free-throws —
allowing Metcalf to do the same.
“We put Doug on one side
and Kenny on the other,” Met
calf said. “I told Darnell to go to
the hoop and if he got into trou
ble he was supposed to go to
one of them. He made a tre
mendous pass.

Some desk jobs are
more exciting than
others.
As a Navy pilot
or flight officer, your
desk can be a sophis
ticated combination
of supersonic jet air
craft and advanced electronic equipment.
But you can handle it. Because Navy
flight training gives you the navigation,
aerodynamics and other technical
know-how you need.
In return, Navy aviation demands
something of you as an officer:
Leadership.
Your path to leadership starts with
officer training that’s among the most
making authority.

ground, you have

demanding in the military. It’s intensive
leadership and professional schooling
combined with rigorous Navy flight
training. And it’s all geared to prepare
you and other college ,
graduates for the
unique challenge of
Navy aviation. The
program is tough but
rewarding.

No company can give you this kind of
leadership responsibility this fast. And
nothing beats the sheer excitement of
Navy flying.
The salary is exciting, too. Right
away, you’ll earn about $18,300 a year.
That’s better than the average corpora
tion will pay you just out of college.
And with regular Navy promotions and
other pay increases, your annual
salary will soar to $31,100 after four
years. That’s on top of a full package
of benefits and privileges.

record dropped to 11-11, 4-7 in
SWC play. The Razorbacks are
17-4, 8-1, and are still hanging
hot on the heels of league-lead
ing Houston.
Arkansas coach Eddie Sutton
commented on the victory.
“We’re happy we won the
game,” said Arkansas coach Ed
die Sutton. “We were fortunate
we won. We made a Jot of mis
takes and our inability to hit
free throws gave them a chance
to win.”
But the season is far from
over and Metcalf says the team
will improve with time.
“It takes time — it just
doesn’t happen (right away),”
Metcalf said, snapping his fin
gers for emphasis.
“We’re young and we’re try
ing,” he said. “You can’t buy ex
perience.”
And you can’t buy a healthy
roster either. The Aggies have
been decimated by the flu over
the past few weeks, so staying
within one point of the Razor-
backs in the first game with ev
eryone back may have been a
shock.
The flu epidemic hit the
team so hard that Metcalf was
forced to miss a team practice
for the first time in his career.
Williams scored 12 points to
join Holloway and Brown as the
third Aggie in double figures.
Winston Crite had eight points,
including two dunks; Jimmie
Gilbert had two points, and
Pulliam came off the bench to
score six points.
For the Razorbacks,Alvin
Robertson scored 18 before
fouling out, Kleine added 14
and Leroy Sutton had 10.
