HE BATTALION
Aggie Tracksters Seek Third Win Against Rice, LSU Saturday
By LARRY UPSHAW
Randy and the shot put ring
neet again this Saturday. You
iced say no more.
For the Aggies, the state of
Fexas and the world, the mean-
ng is clear. For the first time
his year, Randy Matson steps
nto that sphere which catapault-
ed him to fame — the shot put
ting.

After some winter-time frolic
»ith the Aggie basketball team,
Matson attempts to return to
[rack prominence as the A&M
lacksters battle Rice and LSU
in triangular action at Houston.
Although holding the world’s
shot put record of TO’-TAi” Mat-
son noted, “I will probably hit
sround 60 feet this week. That is
the best I’ve done in practice.”
Bothered by a case of the flu,
Matson has thrown in practice
tnly four times plus working out
nith weights. His weight stands
it 234 now, well below the 258-
!60 range which he feels is his
test throwing weight.
“It will take me a couple more
seeks to get into good shape,” he
said, “I haven’t worked real hard
d proto j e t because I’m not in the best
shape.”
Matson’s coach, Charley Thom-
is noted, “His form is looking
{ood now. He just needs to get
Ms strength up. When he got the
(hi and his weight fell, his
strength went with it.”
“I feel he will throw around
Ml feet this week,” added
anizatioi ^omas. “He is further ahead
low than when he started work
ing for last season. Of course
le started about December for
last season, where he’s starting
members m March this year. “I feel he

will be at his best shape around
June or July and I hope he can
break that world record.”
The Aggies step on down to
Houston with an undefeated rec
ord in outdoor competition. On
successive weekends the A&M
briers outpointed Rice and
lexas in a triangular meet and
12-team field at the Border
urman J* llympics.
The meet shapes up as a battle
>f the hospital brigades as both
l&M and Rice have a long list of
Jerformers in sick bay. The flu
mg bit Aggi’e half-miler Willy
Hodriguez and Steven Bancroft
but they will compete, while
printer Alfred Cilio will forego
Hie action for this reason.
Four-forty man Scott Blessing
*ill also be out with a pulled
•luscle. Rice leaves Southwest
Conference champion three-miler

‘Printers Jimmy Epps and Scotty
Hiddlebrook, weightman Gerald
Holtzman, halfmiler Greg Peters
‘id pole vaulter Tommy Mar-
aall all suffer from various ill
-uses
But the healthy bodies will put
•u a good show. As sprinter Gil
Pith carries an undefeated rec-
M in the 100 and 220-yard
kshes this season. And high
Jumpers Mike Schrider and Steve
Holtz of A&M lead the confer-
Pe in their specialty with 6’-
leaps each.
“This one is between A&M and
Hire, although LSU will collect
-He vital points,” Thomas said.
The appearance of the young
Jbt, Matson, should give the
%nes the weight to post a third
fotory.
