The gifted toe of Texas' extra-point man, Phil Branch, was the difference. Unimpressed by Baylor's No. 3 national ranking in the Associated Press football poll, Texas played giant killer for the second time in five years against a Baylor team that entered the contest with an unblemished record.

But the 21-point second half resulted only after regulars the Trojans drop the Indians from the list of the conference undefeated and throw the Rose Bowl By the Associated Press Hunters were heading for the hills by the hundreds in New Mexico Saturday night in the annual competition with rough terrain and crisp fall weather and the elusive deer.

The opening of the season was marked by the death of an Albuquerque man when the car he was driving hit a mountain curve too fast and plunged off the road. The accident came several hours before the noon opening of the season and polnt-a ed up warnings from officials to all hunters to be careful. One of the first reports of a successful hunter came from Albuquerque where Roy Heis-kell of Albuquerque reported with a deer at 3:40 p. m. He said be shot it near Magdalena.

Conditions for hunting were reported favorable in most sections of the state and officials expected a record turnout of nimrods. The State Game Department in Santa Fe reported licenses were unexpectedly sold out at Taos and Las Vegas and more had to be sent to those points. About 200 temporary wardens are in the field in addition to the 16 regular wardens to help enforce regulations. Killed in the traffic accident was Arthur Dean Standage. 30, of Albuquerque.

Perhaps this analysis applies to "name" universities such as Notre Dame, Illinois, Southern Cal and Maryland. It does not hold water in situations involving smaller colleges in lesser-known conferences. Let hi take the cases of New Mexico center Larry White and end Ray Guerette.

White is the sole nomination for All-America by the Associated Press Mountain Regional Board. But when the pivot's name Is cast with others for national ranking in New York it's notable by its absence. Guerette has been a two-time Skyline nominee from the Albuquerque front but can't even dent the I league's selections. "Punchy," as his Lobo mates call him, was the difference of ten points against Denver. UNM won by two markers.

He caught a 24-yard TD pass, kicked two extra points and blocked a pair of Pioneer conversion tries as well as intercepting a payoff aerial. This is a typical afternoon for the transplanted end from Maine monotonous a his achievement may become while also being overlooked.

Perhsps the fsult wasn't his but yon can bet your bottom peso it won't happen again. Regardless, we heard several cynics mutter after the game: "What was wrong with White today?" Can memories be so short as to forget his sharp, driving-through tackles or bone-crushing blocks?

He has B-plus average in pre-dental study, plays the oboe in the Albuquerque Civic Symphony Orchestra and picks up a little cash as a licensed barber in the Men's Dorm or in his dad's Duke City shop. White is perhaps the top candidate for All-America from UNM.

Guerette and Bob Lee are runners-up. But no player is a team within himself. Defensively, no one could ask more of men like end Bob Morgan, tackles Marlin Pound and Jack Eaton or guards Ralph Mat-teucci and Jay Crampton. As a line-backer, Jim Bruening goes about his chores methodically but draws only an occasional "ho-hum." AH-Amerlrani are made not born. And the manufacture of a player to the high honor still may miss because he excells at a school away from the heavily-populated areas.
