Fans viewed the Texas Tech game with mixed emotions, or as Foach Jim Myers would put it, Like a man who watches his iftiother-in-law drive over a cliff in his new Cadillac.There was a lot of good and a lot of bad in the tightly played contest. That lot of good came in the form of Jesse McGuire, the soph- omore speedster who brought, the fans to their feet with his quick stepping dashes off tackle. Mc- Guire accounted for 154 yards of the Cadets 225 yards rushing, and did it on only 15 carries. A&Ms backfield this year with Charles Milstead, Gordon LeBoeuf, Randy Sims and now McGuire is a potent one capable of breaking loose for the long scoring run or pounding out first downs a yard it a time. Their ability to pull off the long pass was well proven in 1958. The line is the big question mark now, and it is not their abil- ity but rather their lack of size that could hold down the win re- cord this season. Its hard to find a man weighing over 190 pounds on the starting eleven. The one spark of hope is that they are all lettermen, with only John Tracey and Ken Beck missing off last years so-so team. Saturdays game with the Spar- tons will be doubly tough for the Aggies since Michigan State has had nothing to do this fall but prepare for their opening date with A&M. If you remember back to last season, that was exactly the situation when the Farmers met the University of Houston. The game will be the third meet- ing in history between the two elevens and its expected to draw some 50,000 fans according to State officials. Coach Duffy Daugherty has re- geared his offense this year to accomodate a new douhle-wing at- tack and Will feature offensive and defensive platoons, something the undermanned Aggies will find hard to contend with. The Spar- tans last year posted a dismal 3-5-1 record. In previous meetings with the Aggies, Michigan won by a 26-13 count in 1934, and by a 48-6 score in 1952. That defeat was the worst in A&Ms history and duplicated the feat performed by Texas Uni- versity in 1898. The fact sheet on Michigan State says that they have excel- lent team speed, good backfield depth and will be heavily sprinkl- ed with sophomores. Their big problem is in the quarterback po- sition, Southwest Conference statistics released today show Jesse Mc- Guire the conferences top ground gainer ahead of veteran Jack Spikes of TCU. McGuire had a total of 154 yards in 15 carries while Spikes was toting the pig- skin for 130 yards in the same amount of tries. Don Meredith and his SMU Mustangs sat out last weeks football openers. Milstead completed five of ten passes for 91 yards to lead the conference passers. McGuire, Spikes and Milstead arethe top three in the total offense depart- ment. after the Aggies had recovered a fumble on the Raider 47 and moved the ball downfield to the one on Charley Milsteads passing and Gordon LeBeoufs running. McGuire scored the TD on a wide sweep around end, juggling the ball the whole distance. Randy Simskick for the extra point was good and the Aggies led, 7-6. The Cadetssecond score came after they had lorced Tech to kick and took possession of the ball on their own 27. It was all McGuire on this touchdown drive as the young sophomore first raced 14 yards before being pulled down, then took the ball two plays later, cut off tackle, and raced 64 yards for the score. Simsconversion was again good and the Farmers led, 14-6. Tech struck back with the speed and fury of a mad bull, tying the score in a little less than two min- utes. Glenn Amerson, a second string quarterback for the Raiders, was the hero of the hour when he hit end Baker Turner with a 75- yard touchdown pass, and then threw to Halfback Dan Gurley for the conversion to tie the game up at 14 all. The winning touchdown was scored tke next time the Raiders had possession of the ball, the drive covering 58 yards with the last 33 being an end ramble by Gurley.

Last Friday found the Tigers in Beaumont com- ing out on the short end of a 36- 0 count as the St. Anthony Bull- dogs, outweighed eight pounds a man moved almost at will against the hapless Maroon and White. Logan was highly displeased at the Bengals showing, commenting, We just didnt go out to play football.Logan pointed out the efforts of Quarterback Condy Pugh, defensive Guard Mike Bloom, End Virden Smith, and de- fensive Guard George Outlaw, as the only bright spots in the other- wise poor showing. Outlaw was the Tigersonly serious casualty, suf- fering a bruised thigh. It is doubtful that the scrappy 130- pound defensive star will play this week. This week will welcome back co- captain Dee Smith and junior tackle Mark Luther, out with sprained ankles, and junior end Bob Adams, out with rib injuries. The Bulldogs racked up a 12-0 halftime lead against the Tigers, then held Consolidated in their own territory most of the night while tallying 24 points in the third quarter to cinch the victory. The Bulldogs went 19 yards in six plays with 4:45 left in the first quarter with tailback Tom Emer- son going the final five yards for the TD.
