lecreatian. Military Skills 'Practiced By Judo Group By LARRY JERDEN Sports Staff The stated purpose of the A&M do Club, according: to faculty onsor Maj. F. F. Drake, is to courage the development of the or t the physical fitness of the , m bers, and to prepare for aments. |Maj. Drake described judo as "‘‘clean, recreational sport, con- ■cive to physical well-being, fth a direct application to mili- I«r skills.” He said he felt it a way in which a student at ' fcM could add to his military ^ lining, as it is usable in com- t The sport is required knowl- " ' g e for SAC combat crews. While judo is both a sport and weapon, the club stresses the tlemanly aspects, making it a rious offense for a member to m01 a g of his prowess, or to use his ill outside of the gym. To an itrained observer, the s p o r tr ems to be a dangerous one, but aj. Drake said there had been injuries in the history of the ub. Club membership is limited to r r wa ;n ' m 40 members, and membership is closed for this semester. When admission is open, the club is open to any student of A&M. At the present time there are six “brown belts” among the mem bers. There are four grades of belt colors: white, green, brown and black, in ascending order of skill. Upgrading above the brown belt is limited to the approval of another black belt, so at the pres ent the club is limited to promo tions during tournaments. Pro motions are tightly regulated by the Judo Black Belt Federation. The club is divided into two teams, the “maroon” and “white” squads. The two teams compete against each other in intraclub competition to determine who will represent the school in tour naments. When the club com petes, it does so as the Texas A&M Judo Team. The Maroon team is captained by Troy Myer and the White squad by Bill Picavance. Both are brown belts. louston To NCAA, Ulanova To NIT neficl ment his age Jew YORK </P) — The spirited of „ ly bidding between major post- ini son college basketball tourna- its for leading independent he p] ns resulted Wednesday in the u -aling of the coveted Villanova dcats by the National Invitation irnament. nnouncement of Villanova’s of (lingness to play in the 14- team York tourney, plus accept- from Boston College and De- t, came shortly after the Wild- had rejected a bid extended National Collegiate Athletic fcociation tournament officials, he NCAA, however, received ac- [tance from six teams.

Jlrt Mahan, Villanova’s athletic ^ ector, pointed out that six school arc | )| rs for the tournament would be re r much for the players to lose. •e tl ;o t! In the NIT, the players will be able to commute between classes and competition. “We would have taken the NCAA bid if we had been assigned to the regionals in Philadelphia,” said Jack Kraft, the Wildcat’s coach. “We’re very pleased with the NIT invitation and I feel this is a re ward for our record.” The Wildcat’s victory over Pro vidence, ranked fourth in the lat est Associated Press poll, was their 18th in 22 games. They are led by Bill Melchionni, a 6-foot junior who is averaging 19 points a game. This weekend the team will travel to Denton to compete in the JBBF State Championship Tournament. Also scheduled this semester is a tournament in San Antonio, one with the Tamuri Judo Institute in Dallas, and a third with the James Connally AFB team. Last semester the team com peted in two tournaments with excellent results. One was in San Antonio and the other was with James Connally. In the San Antonio match, the A&M Club brought home the team championship. Larry Ste phens took first place in the un limited division, and Greg Mann defeated the instructor of the San Antonio team, a black belt, to take the 180-pound class. Tom Post placed third in the 135- pound category while Troy Myers claimed second spot in the 165- pound class. At the James Connally tour nament, Maj. Drake earned a third place prize in the 180-pound division. Steve Chupik gained second spot in the 135 - pound class and Richard Crosby came in third in the 165-pound division. Budget limitations restrict the team now to in-state tourna ments, and even so the team members pay part of their own way. The club is planning to award letters to qualifying mem bers, and this step is now await ing approval of Hank Foldberg, A&M Athletic Director.

Two weekend sports attractions have become victims of circumstance. The A&M-Baylor dual track meet slated here Saturday afternoon has been called off because of the icy weather conditions. Unless the meet is re-scheduled, the Aggie cindermen won’t make another home appearance until April 10, when a quadrangular with Texas, SMU, and Baylor will be run. The other sporting event affected is the classic A&M-TU basketball duel in Austin. The clash has been moved to an 8 p.m. tipoff time in place of the original 2 p.m. starting hour. A television contract that fell through for lack of sponsorship was the cause of the earlier afternoon sched uling. Last season’s Austin engagement ended in a 65-60 Aggie victory which started people thinking of a possible A&M championship. Their intuition was borne out a few weeks later. On the final night of conference play last season the Cadets pulled out a 65-63 triumph which no one hereabouts will soon forget. And again this season it took the full forty minutes for these two quintets to reach a final decision. This time the scoreboard favored Texas, by that same 65-63 score. Unfortunately, this contest has been more famous in recent seasons for the post-game show than for the actual ball game. The event was beamed via the airways last year, when it was held in the daytime. For this and other reasons the action was restricted to the playing court. Without a doubt this was the best thing for all parties concerned. The unofficial melee two years ago produced sports page headlines and action pictures all across the nation. It cast an adverse light on the two schools and created several injuries on both sides. What was an injury yesterday could become a fatality today. Anything can happen when a brawl breaks out in a packed gym. And you can bet on Gregory Gym being packed. This event is one of the genuine highlights of the A&M year and every Aggie that can possibly make it should be there. It is virtually the only basketball game of the Southwest Conference season which has sizeable representa tion from both schools. It gives both student bodies a chance to show what they really stand for. ;ed tiom coll va SENIORS Seniors who wish to add ™ nformation or activities to heir “Aggieland ’65” calli dentification card can do Ma lo by contacting Robert e " 1 leger (Dorm 7 Room 305) >y Feb. 27th.
