THE BATTALION Pag-e 6 College Station, Texas Tuesday, November 14, 1967 Sports Aplenty Only Two Are Left? By GARY SHERER Ags-Longhorns May Make TV And then there were two! This is the situation, if the two-loss hex retains its power over the Southwest Conference race. No SWC team has ever won the championship with more than one loss. If this holds true this season, the Ag-gies and Texas are the only contenders left. But, the way things have been going in the conference this year, anything might happen. Texas Christian, who can’t even finish with a winning record, is now given an outside chance because of its two- game winning streak. Texas runs into the hot Froggies this Saturday, and a TCU win would lower the significance of the ‘Turkey Day’ game. TYLER (TP)—General Manager Marshall Pengra of television station KLTV said Monday he was asking ABC to televise the Texas-Texas A&M football game Thanksgiving Day. Pengra said his station was re ceiving a steady stream of tele phone calls urging the station to televise the game and that he ex pected all television stations in the state would be besieged with calls and letters. He said every effort would be made to get ABC to do a state wide telecast. The game is a sellout and will not interfere with any other col lege game in the allowable radius. The Aggies aren’t home free by any means. The Ma roon and White meet the crippled Rice Owls at Houston Saturday. Don’t let the word ‘crippled’ fool you about the Owls. This is always a tough game for the Aggies regard less of either team’s condition. If approved, it would mark the second time this year for TV exposure for both teams. A&M met Southern Methodist in ABC’s season opener on Sept. 16 while Texas played Arkansas before a national audience on Oct. 21. The Coaches’ Wives A Hometown Girl MRS. LOYD TAYLOR Whatever happens, whether one team takes it all or a tie occurs (a four-way deadlock is possible), this season has not lacked for topsy-turviness. This has come to be the rule, as far as the SWC is concerned. Waves come giant size in the Indian Ocean. Off Sumatra, lay ers of colder and warmer water undulate in 240-foot underwater swells—more than twice the size of the largest surface waves on record. Aggie Wrestling Club To Organize The Texas A&M Wrestling Club will organize Wednesday at 5 p.m. in the wrestling room of G. Rollie White Coliseum. Ken Bottom of the Oceanogra phy Department is the wrestling coach this year. Matches with other schools are scheduled for this year. By VANCY MANNING Battalion Staff Writer “Anything can happen in foot ball,” Mrs, Pat Taylor, wife of offensive backfield coach Loyd Taylor, says. “It’s always exciting,” she added. Mrs. Taylor does not take any game lightly. “I start getting nervous on Wednesday,” she said. She believes that recruiting is very important. “Losing a boy while trying to recruit him is almost like losing a game,” she noted. Coach Taylor recruits in the north central part of the state. ‘Loyd is always reading news papers to find out about boys in his area,” Mrs. Taylor said. “He also attends high school games in his area,” she added. Mrs. Taylor is most familiar with the players her husband re cruits and coaches. “Loyd coaches the offensive backs,” she said. “And I always have to know how his players are doing,” she con tinued. For the past two seasons, Coach Taylor has scouted the Tech game. They have the two game balls autographed and displayed in their den. exciting,” Mrs. Taylor recalled, She listened to the game with other coaches’ wives. “We had up and down feelings all during the game,” she said. “When we woe in the last three seconds, it was just terrific,” she added. One of the disadvantages of being a coach’s wife for Mrs, Taylor has been trying to repre. sent the family at social func tions. “With Loyd away so much, I usually have to attend school affairs alone,” Mrs. Taylor an Aggie fan born in Bryan, of her family A&M and two played on the football team last year. She enjoys cooking for friends who drop by during a football week-end. “Of course, we eat a lot more when we win,” she said, She also enjoys antiquing fur niture. Her last project was antiquing a piano. The Taylor’s three children, Tyanne, Tray and Trent, have a pet dog. His name—Touchdown, she said, has always been because' she was Several members graduated from of her nephews of course. “This year’s game was really years.
