CS Tankers Take Second
By MAURICE OLIAN
Battalion Sports Writer
Facing what was probably their
roughest competition of the season,
College Station’s swimmers failed
by only seven slim points in their
attempt to capture the team title
in the Gulf Amateur Athletic Union
Swimming Meet. Their total of 85
points, however, was good for se
cond place in the rugged meet,
which was held in Houston.
Pacing the local aggregation was
Tetsuo Okamoto, who took individ
ual honors in the men’s division.
Senators Take
White Sox 11-1
For Pennant
After scoring four runs in the
bottom of the first inning last night
at College Station Little League
Park, the Senators had little diffi
culty in subduing the White Sox
11-1 and capturing the second-half
pennant of the American League
South.
The Senators became co-champ
ions for the full-season with the
White Sox, who had previously won
the first-half title. The trophy for
the league winner was awarded to
both teams following last night’s
battle.
Senator hurler Johnny Williams
had almost no trouble with the
White Sox, who had two of their
regulars missing from the line-up
in the “blue-chips” play-off. Wil
liams allowed only one hit, a two-
base blow by Pat Thompson, in the
five innings that he toiled. (That
made a total of six innings that
he had pitched this week, which
is the maximum for Little League
pitchers, so he had to be relieved
at the end of the fifth frame,) He
struck out eight White Sox, walked
three, and hit two.
The last inning was worked by
Joe Olian, who retired the side in
order. He fanned two batters in the
process.
A batter hit by the pitch, a walk
and doubles by Jimbo Carroll and
Harry Lewis, plus a single by Sid
ney Coufal, assounted for the first-
inning uprising.
The White Sox’ lone tally came
in the top of the second. After a
base on balls, Thompson’s double,
and the batter being hit by a stray
pitch, Ozzie Burke walked to force
home the losers’
first, and last, run of the game.
Three runs on three hits gave the
Senators a safe lead in the bottom
half of the second. A walk, singles
by Larry Lewis and Jimbo Carroll,
He won first places in the 200-
meter individual medley and in the
200 - meter freestyle, as well as
teaming with John Harrington, Jer
ry Mount and Jim Covan to win the
400-meter medley j-clay.
Harrington finished first in the
100-meter back stroke, and he came
in second in the 200-meter individ
ual medley and third in the 100-
meter breast stroke. Mount took a
second in the men’s 100-meter free
style.
In the women’s division, Martha
Shawn captured second place in the
100-meter back stroke, and Judy
Litton finished -fifth in the 200-
meter freestyle. Gail Schlesselman
gathered additional points by tak
ing first in the 100-meter butter
fly and third in the 100 - meter
breast stroke.
The 400-meter freestyle relay
team of Judy, Gail, Martha, and
Ann Schlesselman placed first.
Taking a second place in the 400-
meter medley was the relay team
of Martha, Gail, Judy, and Ann
Cleland. The quartet of Ann
Schlesselman, Helen Klipple,
Mary Frances Badgett, and Pamela
Hayes, competing in the same
event, finished fifth.
Several more of Coach Art
Adamson’s swimmers made the
trip, but they failed to qualify for
the finals. These included Bill
Farrar, Tom Ivy, Sally Lehr, Shir
ley Rogers, Mary and Patsy Varvel,
and Ann Williamson.
College Station Recreation Coun
cil-sponsored tennis players saw
plenty of action during the past
week, as they competed in two big
tournaments, the State Junior
Development Tournament in Rosen
berg and the Amateur Athletic
Union Junior Olympics in Hous
ton.
In the Junior Development
Tournament, a three - day affair
sponsored by the Jaycees, Don
Avera captured the only trophy
won by the local group. Competing
in the under-15 boys’ singles, Avera
took four matches, coming from be
hind to win his quarter and semi
final battles and winning 6-4, 6-4
in the finals.
He and Bill Jones bowed out of
the under-15 boys’ doubles in the
quartei’-finals by 6-3, 6-1. Jones
won his opening singles battle but
was defeated in a close scrap in
the second round. Also competing
in the under-15 boys singles, Jack
Armistead was beaten in the quart-
ed - finals.
The local entry in under-18 boys’
singles, Maurice Olian, lost his
first-round match. He teamed with
Bryan’s Walter Dahlberg in doubles
and they were eliminated in the
quarter-finals.
The tandem of Margaret Man-
thei-Betty Mead entered the under-
18 girls’ doubles and was defeated
6-4, 6-3 in the first round. Margaret
won her first-round singles en
counter but was beaten in the se
cond round.
The duo of Pam Sperry-Susan
Dowell, in under-15 girls’ doubles,
lost a three-set battle in the open
ing round. Pam was also beaten in
the first round of singles, but Sus
an advanced to the semi-finals be
fore losing a tough three-set match.
In the Junior Olympics, none of
the local entries reached the finals,
although three of them moved as
far as the semi-finals.
One semi-final victim was the
duo of Olian-Dahlberg in the 16-17
boys’ doubles. After a tight 6-0,
4-6, 7-5 quarter-final win over a
Port Arthur entry, they bowed to
the Rosenberg tandem.
