combined their talents for two
more touchdowns in the second
and third periods.
The Aggies with a 3-1 confer-

remote chance at a share of con-

BACKLASH
ANGLES REPORT
By CLEO MARLOWE
The boys who fished at Black
Lake during the past week did
very well. W. M Day caught 30
bass using the old spot tail while
others caught limits on the pico
perch. White perch were reported
to be doing good. This was from
Chandler's camp.
From Warner's camp comes
good news about bass fishing. Fish
are being caught on the dive
bombers and silver spoons. Most
of the bass are being caught close
to the island and on spoons.
Tommy Allen won the past
week's fishing contest with a six
and one-half pound largemouth.
Allen caught his whopper on a
spoon north of the island at Daing-
erfield. «
If the weather stays as warm
as it is at present there is going
to be lots of bass and white perch
caught this week end.
Pat Kluge and Everett Wyche
caught 32 nice bass al Black Lake
the past Wednesday and Thurs-
day. Good going, fishermen!
While fishing for the next
month stay away from those duck
blinds. Some of these boys will
take a pot shot at you for sure.

down within a busy five-minute
span in the second quarter and
generally kept Rice off balance
with his passing, running and
punting.
Floyd waltzed through left
guard from the one-yard line mid-
way in the final period for the
other TCU score after a blocked
punt had given TCU a third quar-
ter safety.
Rice got into the scoring column
with a 65-yard sustained third
period drive, with the'payoff com-
ing when sophomore quarterback
Dan Drake hit Sonny McCurry
with an eight-yard scoring pass.
But the story of the game was
the almost-vicious line play (hat
resulted in more than 200 yards
in penalties.
The whole TCU defense platoon
sparkled all the gloom of the wet
afternoon, but guard Herb Zim-
merman was the shining light. He
blocked one punt that resulted in a
TCU touchdown, harried passer
Drake and the Rice ball carriers
continuously, and generally made
himself obnoxious to the Owls. He
figured in all three TCU touch-
downs.
His blocked punt came on the
next to last play of the first quar-
ter and put TCU in motion from
the Rice 46. McKown got three as
