United Press International FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Center Joe Kleine scored 22 points Sunday, including 10 consecutive foul shots in the second half, to help 12th- ranked Arkansas end No. 2 Houston’s 39-game Southwest Conference winning streak, 73- 68. Houston center Akeem Ola- juwon picked up three fouls and a technical during a six- minute span trying to guard Kleine and eventually fouled out with six minutes remaining with 10 points and six re bounds. Kleine’s two foul shots with 14:23 left gave Arkansas a 46- 45 lead and the Razorbacks built the margin to 11 points in the final moments by hitting 19 of 22 foul shots in the second half. Houston’s Alvin Franklin and Michael Young keyed a late Houston comeback that allowed the Cougars to get within three points with 22 seconds remain ing, but Arkansas’ Ricky Norton then hit two free throws to put the game out of reach. The Cougars had already clinched the Southwest Confer ence championship, but Arkan sas’ win avenged a three-point loss to Houston a week earlier. Arkansas thus owns wins over the nation’s No. 1- (North Carolina) and No. 2- ranked club this season. Arkansas advanced its season record to 24-5 and finished the SWC campaign with a 14-2 mark. Houston ended the con ference season with a 15-1 re cord and is 26-4 overall. It was the first loss in SWC competi tion for Houston since Feb. I, 1982 when the Cougars fell on the road to Texas A&M. The Cougars led at halftime, 36-34, coming up with a num ber of steals and easy baskets which resulted in a 69.6 field goal shooting percentage. Franklin and Young combined for 17 first-half points. Young led the Cougars with 22 points and Franklin finished with 21. Arkansas stayed close on outside shooting by forward Charles Balentine, who scored 12 of his 16 points in the first half, and Kleine, who scored 10 in the period. Norton finished with 14 points for Arkansas, which shot 53 percent from the field, and guard Alvin Robertson added 13 points for the Razorbacks. Arkansas and Houston are heavy favorites to reach the fi nals for what would be the de ciding game of a three-game se ries. The SWC’s tourney begins Tuesday night at three locales although all the teamsplaying Tyesday evening do not figure to be factors when it comes to championship time. Texas Tech, which finished fourth, will host the Baylor Bears Tuesday evening. Rice will host its first ever tourna ment game Tuesday evening against TCU and Texas A&M will be at home against Texas.

Aq nefters pull 3 upsets By TRAVIS TINGLE Sports Writer The Texas A&M men’s ten nis team moved a step closer to claiming a top 20 ranking by upsetting three nationally ranked teams over the week end. The Aggies finished 6th out of 24 teams at the Corpus Christi Invitational tournament with dual match victories over No. 20 Duke, 7-2, No. 14 Wi chita State, 6-3 and No. 15 Ala bama, 7-2. Coach David Kent said the Aggies should probably be ranked in the next national col legiate poll because of their good showing at the tourney. “I think these wins will get us in the top 20,” Kent said. “We impressed a whole lot of folks down there.” Kent said that Greg Hill and Grant Connell were undefeated in doubles play during the tour nament. “Greg and Grant just played outstanding,” Kent said. But the team did lose two matches, both against ranked SWC opponents. The men were defeated in the quarter-finals by No. 7 SMU, then lost out to No. 9 Ar kansas for 5th place. The Aggies, now 13-4 over all, will play matches this week at the Omar Smith Tennis Cen ter at 1:30 p.m. The first match is Wednes day against North Carolina and the second is Saturday with Pan American. Kent said North Carolina has a fine team.
