Baseball Practice Begins Today TOM CHANDLER Ten lettermen will be among Texas Aggie baseball candidates who’ll greet Coach Tom Chandler for the opening day of practice here today. A lot of gaping holes must be filled, despite the 10 lettermen because five of that group are pitchers. The only returning starters are all-SWC catcher Joe Staples from Houston, pitcher Rocky Thomp son from Houston, second base- man Richard Backest from Deni son and centerfielder Bob Long from Paris.

They are Eddie Vaughn, from Odessa JC, at first base and Terry Dailey, from Blinn JC, at third base. In addition to Staples, Thomp son, Backest and Long, the re turning lettermen include pitchers Bob Arnold, El Paso; Bob San ders, Houston; Walter Varvel, College Station and Rick Schwartz, Brownsville; utility man Jim Batson, from Hearne and infielder - outfielder Pete Maida Jr., from Beaumont. Chandler’s thumbnail outlook: Good catching, thin pitching, problems at second base and shortstop, especially in hitting; good defensive outfield but un proven offensively; improved team speed but overall personnel very inexperienced. A&M opens the season with a three-game series against Pan- American in Edinburg Feb. 23. The first SWC game is against Texas in College Station March 2. All of A&M’s home games will be played at Kyle Field this year. There will be no night contests. SCHEDULE Friday, Feb. 23, Pan-American at Edinburg (2 games), 12 noon.
