Whatever his reasons, the common. On one occasion, Kreugar lobbed a pass that seemed intended fof Carroll. But Danny couldn't handle the free gift and Kreugar recovered.

The officiating was as hap- hazard as the play and the game became "jungle ball." Often two or three players would be sprawled on the floor with no call made as the officials contin- ued the "no blood, no foul" school of thought.

Inconsistent refereeing is a constant occurance, but Rice saw something not often seen — a team that has to outhustle the Owls. At times, in the first half, the Horns were able to get off an easy layup before the Owls would be down the court.

Even so, Rice showed its usual hustle, Moriarty made sev- eral great efforts to keep the ball in bounds, only to put his foot on the line. Simians from his guard position was able to gather in seven rebounds and eight points.

Moriarty led all scorers with 20 points while Carroll led all rebounders with 13 and had 11 points. Daniels compensated a poor 4-17 from the field with a perfect 8-0 performance at the line to score 16. Dave Louwerse spent most the night passing off rather than shooting, but had a fine defensive game with 10 rebounds. . . * * * In a friendlier environment, Rice will probably put Texas back in the cellar.
