Forward Pass loomed as an odds-
on choice to win Saturday's $100,-
000-added Belmont Stakes and
complete a sweep of the Triple
Crown.
The Calumet Farm’s strong
runner was listed Wednesday as
a 4-5 choice in a probable field
of nine for the IV2 mile classic.
He was the favorite for both the
Kentucky Derby and the Preak-
ness but not at odds-on.
If the Calumet charger sweeps
the Big Three, he will be the first
to do so since Citation in 1948.
If all nine 3-year-olds go to the
post, the race will gross $161,450
with $117,700 going to the win
ner.

Saying that Ozzie Burke is not enthusiastic about hand
ball is like saying that Randy Matson doesn’t want to win
an Olympic Gold Medal.
The junior Industrial Arts major is the president of
the Texas A&M Handball Club that includes 50 members
made up of students and faculty.
Burke, who hails from Bryan, has been playing hand
ball since high school and his reputation precedes him
around DeWare Fieldhouse.
We talked recently to Ozzie about the handball situa
tion at A&M. It should be noted that he and Dan Kennerly
helped to put Texas A&M in the national handball spotlight
about three weeks ago when the pair won the National
Intercollegiate Doubles Championship at St. Louis.
“It’s a shame people can’t get to see us play,’’ Ozzie
related when we discussed further in the handball facilities
at DeWare. There are several courts in the fieldhouse but
only two are equipped with places where several people
can observe the action.
Even these courts aren’t adequate, as a wire mesh
covers the opening and you get the same view as if you were
looking through a catcher’s mask. The club members are
unhappy about this, but Ozzie says the real problem is the
courts themselves.
“In order to keep your game In shape, the courts should
be of plaster,” Ozzie pointed out. DeWare’s courts are all
wood and the club has been after the Physical Education
Department to make renovations but they have met with
little success.
A comparison can be made with Texas’ facilities which
Ozzie observed are close to the best college courts in the
nation. They, like A&M are a state-supported school, but
they have much better facilities. We would surmise from
this, that some serious thought should be given to improve
the handball courts here.
The Aggie Club financed the team at the St. Louis
tournament but with that exception, the club has received
little financial help from the university. Possibly more
effort on the part of those responsible and some of those
changes might become a reality.
Is there enough enthusiasm for those changes? Just
talk to Ozzie Burke, and you’ll get your answer.
nesday as Texas whipped Pan
American College, 3-0, in the
opening game of their NCAA
baseball playoff.
The two teams, competing for
the Dist. 6 spot in the college
world series June 10-15 at Oma
ha, Neb., will, play again Thurs
day and, if a third game is neces
sary, Friday. All games are sche
duled for Austin.
Hardy retired the last 14 bat
ters to face hLm after Pan Ameri
can’s Alan Jones singled in the
fifth inning. Jones, a .125 hitter,
also got the Edinburg school’s
other hit, a single in the second.
It was the best performance
ever by a Longhorn pitcher in
playoff competition leading to
the college world series.
Texas scored in the second on
George Nauert’s double and a
single by Bob Snoddy. In the
sixth, Pat Brown singled, stole
and scored on David Hall’s single.
The final Longhorn run came in
the ninth when Snoddy doubled,
moved to third on a ground out
and scored when Jones dropped
the throw to the plate after Hardy
grounded out.
