Athletic Complex
Adds Net Courts
Completion of Texas A&M’s
$33,000 varsity tennis courts
within the month will add a su
perior feature to the university’s
fast-growing athletic facilities
complex.
Four Laykold surface courts
are under construction south of
Kyle Field.
The varsity courts will round
out a complex of two gymna
siums, modern outdoor Olympic
and heated indoor swimming
pools, football stadium due ex
pansion after the 1966 season and
20 concrete intramural tennis
courts.
New courts, described as “a
happy medium between concrete
and clay, are a step forward for
our program,” declared tennis
coach Omar Smith. “The facility
will be as fine as any university’s.
It will help play and recruiting.”
A&M OFFICIALS expect con
struction to be completed before
the Texas Tennis Camp, annually
held at A&M.
The red-separated green play
ing surfaces will be of an asphalt
composition, noted A&M con
struction engineer Charley
Leighton. Laykold surface will
be poured on subwork of six
inches of crushed stone and six
inches of lime-stabilized base.
Laykold is employed on courts at
Trinity, Texas and Rice Univer
sities.
The playing area will be en
closed by a 10-foot heavy gauge
chain link fence supported on
three-inch steel posts.
“With a solid material wind
break, the fence will stand 60
mph winds,” Leighton said.
TREES ON THE east, south
and west side of the facility form
a natural wind break. Stands, to
be constructed, will be under
south side trees, placing specta
tors for end-on viewing of four
matches at a time with their
backs to the sun.
Smith expects A&M net play to
be better with the new standard
surface.
“We only lost one home match
in 1966,” Smith pointed out. “It
was on wood in White Coliseum.
The Oklahoma match had to be
moved because of bad weather.
We’ll be playing on the same sur
face on away and home courts
now.”
SENIOR NET veteran Luis
Rojas of Costa Rica figures the
Aggies will be able to maintain
an advantage.

A Baseball First:
Catcher Hogs Play
INDIANA, Pa. UP) _ Indiana
State University may have rec
orded a baseball first Monday
in a game against St. Francis
College.
Indiana’s catcher made all
three putouts in a triple play.
That may have happened be
fore. But he also had an error
on the play.
Here’s how it happened:
With runners on first and third,
the St. Francis batter struck out
on a hit-and-run play. One out.
Indiana catcher Rick Dahlgren
threw to second baseman Jerry
Dolges, whose relay to home
caught the runner breaking from
third. Two out. As the other
runner continued going, Dahl
gren attempted to throw him out
at third, but overthrew into left
field for an error. But the return
throw from left-fielder Nick Sud-
zina got the third out at the
plate.
Indiana went on to win the
game 4-1 for its 13th consecu
tive victory.
