FROM THE SIDELINES A Sports Editor Bows Out By JIM BUTLER Knocking around the state with A&M’s athletic teams this year has been a great experience for me and I hope has helped me to bring to you, the readers, coverage of Aggie sports to the extensive degree that you desire and deserve. As all coaches know and A&M coaches have expressed, student support is an absolute necessity for a sucessful and victorious athletic program. And after a disappointing start, due to many fission factors, the students revived and reached a height of spirit that has not been seen on this campus in many years, if not in the history of A&M. It has been my extreme pleasure to be in the thick of a promising finish to football season, the apex of thrilling championship basketball and possi bly accompanying Southwest Conference titles in baseball, track and golf. But all this would have been impossible without the cooperation of Athletic Director Hank Foldberg and his excellent staff of coaches. And all these sideline slants have given me the over-powering feeling that under Foldberg’s direction this is the opening of an era—an era that will see Aggieland with the most well-rounded and successful athletic program in the Southwest Conference. Offers Some Words Just as a good coach is ineffective without a good team so will Foldberg’s success rest on the prowess of his staff. Having come into contact with every sports organization in the SWC as well as many outside the league, I can honestly say that a finer group of gentlemen and coaches cannot be found in Texas than occupy offices in G. Rollie White Coliseum. On the basis of these observations, I am going to hazard some predictions on events my successors will report to Aggies in the near future. Next season will find the football team at 6-4 and third place in the conference. In three years, A&M will be playing in the Cotton Bowl. Next March will again see Shelby Metcalf’s cagers in the NCAA playoffs after again edging out Texas Tech. John Beasley will be honorable mention all-America as a junior and a full-fledged all-American as a senior on another SWC cham pionship team. With the tremendous recruiting job done by Metcalf it is difficult to see A&M in any place but first in the next five years. With Tom Chandler sporting the two best sopho mores in the conference in Allen Koonce and Lance Cobb and Billy Crain plus pitching sensation Steve Hillhouse, the Aggie baseball teams will continue in their winning ways with at least two titles in the next three years. Predicts Winners If Charlie Thomas can shake the jinx that has dogged his track team in the last couple of years, he should mold an excellent group of freshmen this year into a championship contingent next year. Omar Smith has come up with the best tennis team to represent A&M in many years and loses no players for next season: another title. The golf team has been at the top consistently, but tougher competition is making title defenses increasingly difficult. But Henry Ransom’s talent as a coach is unequalled in the SWC. Championship will be hard to come by but they’ll be in the top three at least. Swimming is also on the upswing with two of the best freshmen tankers in the state. That’s the way it looks to me after a year in the press box and dressing room. I can hear cries of “Dreamer!” now. But when you stop laughing, sit back and look at the records, look at the players, look at the coaches and look at the other schools. They say every dog has its day and Aggieland’s day is here. The next year we’ve been crying for is only a short six months away. Cadet Linksmen Meet Tech On Road In 2nd Place Bid The Texas A&M golf team \y111 journey to Lubbock Friday to do battle with the second place Texas Tech Red Raiders in a tilt that could very well clear up the mud died SWC picture. The Cadets slipped to third last week despife a 4%-l% victory over an unexpectedly tough Ark ansas team which left them at 12 ^-5% after three matches. Meanwhile, the Texas Longhorns jumped to the top of the race with a surprising 6-0 pasting of Baylor, which left them at 9-3 after two matches. Texas Tech moved into second place with a 6-0 blanking over hapless Rice, which put them % point in front of A&M at 13-5. The Red Raiders, led by the 1962 state amateur champion Richard Yates, have been contenders for the SWC title for the last three years. Having already played Texas and Baylor away from home, Tech is in an opportune place to be “the team to beat.” This will be the Aggies’ chore Friday and the Cadet foursome of Mike Higgins, Jeff Andrick, Jay Ferguson and Doug Dyer will be called upon to stop the Red Raiders.
