Aggie Cager s W:in Over Horned F rogs 39-37 Fish Drop Wharton 61-36 By TRAVIS BROCK Superb play under the baskets by Dick Bentley and Buddy Davis aided the Aggie Fish cagers to a easy 61-36 victory over Wharton Junior College last night in De- Ware Field House. Building up a two point lead in the first fifteen seconds of play with a field goal by Bobby Farmer and another field goal by Eddie Houser increased this margin to four points with only one minute of playing time gone. Landers broke the ice for Whar- ton with a push shot from the foul circle, but the rally was short lived when Buddy Davis began hitting the basket from all angles. The Fish jumped into a 11 point lead midway of the first half with shots from far out by Farmer, and Raymond Walker and a nice tip-in shot by Davis. Five minutes before the half time period, Wharton began to find the range of the basket, with 2 field goals 'by Landers and an- other by Young, to pull within seven points of the Aggie Fish. This short rally began to fade as Davis regained his sights to add three more points to his total. Two field goals by Bill Bybee and Bill Gibbs just before the first half ended gave the Fish a 36-21 margin. Increasing their lead steadily from the start of the second half with Davis contributing eight points in the first nine minutes of play, the Aggie Fish had gained a 22 point margin.

Schrickel Leads Aggies to Loop Win Over Frogs By SACK SPOEDE A&M’s basketball team won the f i g h t to keep out of the conference cellar in their battle with the TCU Horn- ed Frogs at DeWare Field House last night when they edged the Froggies, 39-37. For the second night in a row the Aggies were unable to break 40 in their scoring efforts. This time: how- ever, the opponents were also not so hot at hitting the bucket. In fact, if one Frank Kudlaty had placed the ball in the net in the first half as he did in the second, the Aggies would not be feeling so good as they do today. At half time, this tall forward left the court with exactly no points to his credit, but returned in the second half to put three field goals and four free throws into the bucket, at the east end of the gym, to end the game with 10 points and second high scoring honoi’s. If it takes tall boys to win basketball games, then the Ag- gies lost the game last night, fpr the TCU boys were tall, though somewhat in the broom- stick category. Food must be getting mighty scarce out where the west begins. Boys way over six feet tall were playing at the guard position for the Toads. J. J. “Daddy” Dolnics, the lead- ing scorer in the conference, pro- tected his lead in the conference with 17 points but was having trouble at the stax*t of the game in getting the ball. In the first half, he raised the scoi’e of the Frogs from three to ten points all by his lonesome. Team captain Gene Schrickel led the scoring and provided the spark for the Aggies in the clinches. At one point, in the latter part of the game, with Aggies yelling to hold the ball, Gene gambled and sank a long shot to provide the winning mar- gin for the Aggies. A&M’s last four points were made by the lad from Arlington to bring his total for the night to nine points. Bill Batey, leading scorer for the Aggies for the two seasons pro- ceeding this, was a surprise start- er in the place of Jim Kirkland at a forward position. Dick Todd, Texas A&M’s new backfield coach, caught xxxore of Sammy Baugh’s passes than any other member of the Washington Redskins last season, fielding 37 for six touchdowns and 550 yards in total gains. • RECORDS • RADIOS School & Office Supplies ALL YOUR NEEDS HASWELL’S thing to the Ft.
