'll Pagre 8 THE BATTALION College Station, Texas Thursday, August 4, 1966 Koufax Faces Astros Friday In Astrodome 1 Drops, 1 Added College Football Continues Growth By HAROLD V. RATLIFF Associated Press Sports Writer Texas will have as much col lege football this season as last although one that played in 1966 has discontinued the sport. University of Corpus Christi will be without football this fall. But Paul Quinn, the Negro college at Waco, is resuming football this year. And that’s the same number — 40 — that was in it last season. Heading the list, of course, will be the Southwest Conference’s seven Texas members. No other state has seven members of a sin gle major conference, in fact no other state has as many major colleges in football. There are 11 in Texas, count ing Houston, Texas Western, West Texas State and North Texas State, in addition to the seven members of the Southwest Conference. Here’s how the colleges will line up this fall: Southwest Conference — Tex as A&M, Baylor, Southern Meth- Expansion Drive Reaches $300,000 Texas A&M’s New Kyle Field Drive reached the $300,000 pla teau this week, announced Bob Hunt, Steering Committee execu tive secretary. Donation-option pledges total $300,000 through the first two months of a campaign to provide the Aggies with “one of the finest football stadiums in the South west Conference.” A short-range goal of $100,000 is set for August. Hunt said a $900 reservation order from the Houston A&M Club pushed the drive over the $300,000 mark, with Midland, Odessa and Amarillo among the big leaders. L. F. Peterson, A&M board member and Fort Worth oil oper ator, revealed earlier that once the $760,000 from donation-seat options is reached, matching funds will be provided through revenue bonds.

College football in Texas be came more stable when the Southland Conference was formed so some of the schools that had been playing independently could get to play for something. Teams in conferences seldom quit. McMurry entered the Lone Star Conference last year but had to wait until this season to be in the football championship race. Texas will have football aplen ty in 1966 since there are two professional teams — Houston and Dallas. JMr m jmmgk Sandy Koufax will pitch Fri day night against the Houston Astros in the Astrodome in the first game of a three-day series between the surging Los Angeles Dodgers and the Astros.

The Astros’ pitching ace, Dave Giusti (11-8), will face Koufax on Friday, with Bob Bruce and Chris Zachary to pitch Saturday and Sunday, respectively. Koufax, the winningest pitcher in the majors this year and al most already in the Hall of Fame, will be making his fourth start against Houston. He won his last game against the Astros last June 22, but the Astros beat him June 14, and forced him out after three innings on April 13, al though Koufax didn’t get the loss.
