The Coaches’ Wives
THE BATTALION
Thursday, November 2, 1967
College Station, Texas

It’s Her Choice
By VANCY MANNING
Battalion Staff Writer
“I wouldn’t want to be any
thing but a coach’s wife,” Mrs.
Beth Moore, wife of offensive
coach Bud Moore, says.
“I like it because it’s always
exciting,” Mrs. Moore said. “And
you’re always meeting people,”
she added.
Because Coach Moore scouted
the Baylor team, he received the
game ball after A&M’s victory
over Baylor Saturday. “After he
has it autographed, we’re going
to display it in our den,” Mrs.
Moore said happily.
The first athletic event she at
tended at A&M was a basketball
game. “I was really impressed
by the spirit the students demon
strated,” she recalled.
She not only enjoys football,
but also basketball and baseball.
I won't
go into business when
I graduate because:
□ a. I’d lose my individuality.
□ b. It’s graduate school for me.
□ c. My mother wants me to be a doctor.
Can’t argue with c), but before you check
a) or b)—pencils up! There have been some
changes. Drastic changes in the business
scene. But changes in the vox populi attitude
regarding business . . . especially on campus
. . . just haven’t kept pace.
Take the belabored point that business
turns you into a jellyfish. The men who run
most of the nation’s successful firms didn’t
arrive by nepotism, by trusting an Ouija
board, or by agreeing with their bosses. Along
the way, a well-modulated “No” was said.
And backed up with the savvy and guts to
day’s business demands.
In short, individuality is highly prized in
much of the business world—the successful
much. Even when the business is big. Like
Western Electric, the manufacturing and sup
ply unit of the Bell System.
We provide communications equipment for
our Bell System teammates, the Bell telephone
companies. This takes a lot of thought, deci
sions, strong stands for our convictions, (and
sometimes some mistakes . . . we’re human,
every 160,000 of us).
Individuality pays off. Not only in raises,
but in personal reward as well. Like an engi
neer who knew deep down that there was a
better way to make a certain wire connector
—and did. Or a WE gal who streamlined time-
consuming office procedures, and saved us
some $63,000 a year.
Rewards and accolades. For saying “No.”
For thinking creatively and individually. For
doing.
Not every hour is Fun Hour, but if you’ve
got imagination and individuality—you’ve got
it made. With a business like Western Electric.
We’ll even help you answer b) with our Tui
tion Refund program. Come on in and go
for President!

She attends all home football
games and some basketball and
baseball games.
When she doesn’t attend out of
town games, she joins other
coaches’ wives in listening to the
game on the radio. “Sometimes
we get together to listen to a
game,” she said. “We enjoy root
ing for our team together,” she
continued.
“I know my husband wouldn’t
be happy doing anything else,”
Mrs. Moore said. “And I wouldn’t
trade it for anything,” she added.
But Mrs. Moore does find it
lonely sometimes. After football
season is over Coach Moore be
gins recruiting and spends a
great deal of time out of town.
“Everytime Bud starts to pack
a suitcase, our five year old son
Matt says, ‘Daddy you go on too
many trips.’ ” Mrs. Moore said.
“From 5 to 7 p.m. is when the
children miss their father most
because that is when other fath
ers in the neighborhood are com
ing home,” she said. “They are
always happy to see him and I
sometime let them stay up to see
him,” she added.
She enjoys living in a college
town. And she has found Bryan-
College Station friendly.
“I feel happy all week after a
win,” she said. “I feel bad after
a loss because I know how hard
everyone has worked,” she added.
“I know how low Bud feels
after a loss,” Mrs. Moore said.
“I don’t like him to feel that he
has done badly when he really
hasn’t,” she continued.
She has been impressed by the
traditions at A&M. “There is a
bond between Aggies,” she noted.
“They are proud to be Aggies
and stick together even after they
leave A&M.”
Mrs. Moore, who enjoys sewing
and playing bridge, graduated
from the University of Alabama.
She taught junior high school
English, social studies and Span
ish for a semester.

Visiting Fish Seek First Win
At Injured Owlets’ Expense
The winless Texas Aggie Fish
try to break their two-game los
ing streak tonight as they play
the Rice Owlets in Houston.
The Fish have dropped two
close ones, a 17-15 loss to the
TCU Wogs and a 14-7 decision
to the Baylor Cubs, while the
Owlets stand at 1-1 with a 15-0
victory over the SMU Colts and
a 36-12 trouncing at the hands of
the Texas Shorthorns.
The Rice Freshmen are severe
ly hampered going into this game
due to injuries. Against Texas
both Rice quarterbacks were out
with injuries, first-stringer Gary
Thomas with an ankle injury and
his backup Terry English with a
bad knee. Larry Caldwell, a con
verted tailback handled the quar
terback duties in the Texas game.
During the game the Owlets’
fullback, Tommy Peel was taken
out with a shoulder dislocation
and he will be on the sidelines
tonight.
Against the Shorthorns the
Owlets could generate almost no
offense. They gained 47 yards
on the ground and Caldwell’s one
for 17 in the passing department
netted only 10 yards in the air
for an offensive total of only 57
yards. They also had five aerials
swiped by the Texas defense and
could make only three first downs
to Texas’ 20.
The Owlets’ defense is their

NEW YORK IAN—The halfway

Leroy Kelly showing the way

Bart Starr of Green Bay was
the leading passer last season
but the current pacesetter is Son

Charley Taylor of Washing

is currently out of action due to
injuries but is only one behind
the leader, Willie Richardson of
Baltimore, who has 36.
Bruce Gossett, the Los An
geles Rams’ place kicker and de
fending scoring champion, is run
ning fourth in a department led
by Jim Bakken of St. Louis with
81 points.
Baltimore’s Dave Lee, the top
punter of last season is No. 11
while Pat Studstill of Detroit is
out front with a 45.4-yard aver

Sayers was the kickoff return
champ a year ago but rookie
John Love of Washington is just
ahead of him this year. Johnny
Roland of St. Louis, top punt
return man in 1966, has given
