On AcademicTeam
Two members of the 1967-68
Texas Aggie basketball team re
ceived an academic honor from
the Southwest Conference re
cently.
Senior Johnny Underwood and
sophomore Mike Heitmann were
named to the 1968 SWC All-Aca
demic basketball squad. Under
wood, 6-3 guard from Honey
Grove, was selected on the first
team. Heitmann, 6-4 forward
from Houston, was an honorable
mention pick.
Every honoree had to have a
B average to qualify for the
squad.
Joining Underwood on the first
team were seniors Gary Overbeck
of Texas, Baylor’s Russell Kibbe
and Farrar Stockton of Rice
along with junior Lynn Phillips,
SMU and sophomore Rick Wit-
tenbraker from TCU.
Waco Tuesday to battle the Bay
lor Cubs.
The Fish took a 4-1 verdict over
the Waco based team in their
first contest of the season.
Rocky Self, a quarterback on
the Fish football team in the fall,
has been the team’s most produc
tive hurler. He will take a 3-1
record into the game with Baylor.
Coach Lo Camilli has also re
lied heavily on the hitting of
players such as Terry Logan,
Larry Smith, Danny Papetti and
Larry Youngblood.
The Fish return to College Sta
tion May 11 to end the year with
a doubleheader against the Texas
Yearlings. The first game of the
twinbill with the Yearlings is set
to begin at 1:30.

Texas A&M announced Thurs
day the signing of two outstand
ing basketball prospects.
They are Larry Linder, a 6-5
star with Howard County Junior
College in Big Spring and Bobby
Threadgill, a 6-4 standout with
New Braunfels High School.
Linder, a graduate of Waco
Richfield High, was the second
leading scorer in Howard Coun
ty’s junior college zone.
Threadgill’s credentials include
second-team all-state in class 3A,
a 22-point scoring average and
an average of 19 rebounds per
game.
Aggies Rest Up For Baylor
the
By GARY SHERER
The elements came out
winner once again in its season-
long battle with the Aggie base
ball team.
Coach Tom Chandler’s charges
saw the second game in a row
cancelled by inclement weather in
three days. Thursday’s cancella
tion of a contest with the Hous
ton Cougar nine followed on the
heels of Tuesday’s wash-out with
Missouri. The Aggies topped
Mizzou, 4-0, Monday.
THE HOUSTON game will be
rescheduled into a doubleheader
to be played at Kyle Field April
23. The Missouri game will not
be rescheduled.
This gives the Aggie nine a
three-day layoff before their im
portant two-game series with
Baylor here next week. The Bears
will meet the Aggies for two
single games on Monday and
Tuesday. The two-game set will
complete the Aggie-Baylor series
for 1968. The Bears won an ear
lier game in Waco, 3-0.
It will be doubly important for
the Bears, as with Texas beating
them twice on Thursday, they are
now in a third place tie with Tex
as Christian. A three-way tie
had existed before this between
the Aggies, Texas and the Bears.
WITH TEXAS sweeping Bay
lor Thursday, 10-6 and 8-7, the
ROTARY COMMUNITY SERIES

Longhorns occupy the top spot all
alone with a 9-3 record. The
Aggies are in second at 4-2 and
Baylor and TCU are 5-4. Baylor
and Texas, like the Aggies, are
idle this weekend, but TCU has a
two-game series with Rice at
Fort Worth.
The Baylor games will be the
last home SWC action for the
Aggies for about a month. The
next home conference contests
will be May 3-4 when the Ma
roon and White nine will host the
Rice Owls. The Aggies lost to
Rice 10-3 earlier in the season.
Included in the conference road
action for the Aggies will be
three-game sets with Texas Tech
and Southern Methodist.
The Aggies haven’t met the
Tech nine yet this season (the
Red Raiders are making their
first participation in the SWC
baseball race) while an earlier
Aggie-SMU contest was rained-
out.
That game was one of the
games that was rescheduled when
the conference no-rescheduling
rule was changed a few weeks
ago.

LOUISVILLE <dP>—After Ray
Horner had gone skiing for the
first time, a friend asked him
how it was.
“There are only three steps to
it,” replied Homer. “First, you
learn how to put the skis on;
then you learn how to jump, and
finally you learn how to walk
again.”

V'' ."--1
Spring is so much more than just a season. It is a
miracle, enacted against a backdrop of perfect days.
It is the time of rebirth ... of reaffirmation.
THE CHURCH FOR ALL . . .
ALL FOR THE CHURCH
Spring is Christ’s story, beautifully illustrated by
nature. It is all the teachings of the Church, brought
to reality, spread out gloriously for you to see. Nature,
in her sweet, new loveliness, touches the world, touches
you with the Christ-like spirit. If your vision has been
dulled, she gives you the chance to see again more
brightly than ever.
Palm Sunday is here again. Never before have the
doors of the Church seemed to stand quite so open . . .
so ready to receive you. Never has the lesson of ever
lasting life . . . Christ’s lesson . . . been so poignant.
There will be new richness in your life if you will trust
in the Church. In your soul there can be eternal spring,
and all the bleakness, questioning and doubt can be
erased from your heart forever.
The Church is the greatest
factor on earth for the building
of character and good citizen
ship. It is a storehouse of
spiritual values. Without a
strong Church, neither democ
racy nor civilization can sur
vive. There are four sound
reasons why every person
should attend services regu
larly and support the Church.
They are: (1) For his own
sake. (2) For his children’s
sake. (3) For the sake of his
community and nation. (4) For
the sake of the Church itself,
which needs his moral and
material support. Plan to go
to church regularly and read
your Bible daily.
