Seminoles Impress Stallings
By JOHN PLATZER
Florida State, the Aggies’ op
ponents in Tallahassee this Sat
urday, was a good football team
with an impressive defense in
their 9-3 loss to Florida last
weekend, according to A&M head
coach Gene Stallings.
“I was really impressed with
them defensively more than any
thing else,” Stallings said at yes
terday’s press conference.
Stallings watched the Florida
State-Florida game on television
in his New Orleans hotel room
before leading his team to a 35-3

victory over Tulane that night.
Instead of watching the per
formances of individuals during
a game on television, Stallings
watches the more general play
of the teams.
“ON television I watch what
they’re trying to do formation
wise more than anything,” the
Aggie athletic director said.
A pair of Florida State’s top
receivers, Ron Sellers and tight
end Chip Glass, also left an im
pression on Stallings.
Stallings praised his team’s
performance in their win over
Tulane saying that “they played
a lot better than against LSTJ.”
EDD HARGETT, Larry Ste-
gent, Bob Long, Curley Hallman,
Buster Adami and Harvey Asch-
enbeck all received special praise
for their parts in the victory.
“I guess Hallman played the
best game he’s ever played with
two interceptions and a recovered
fumble,” Stallings said.
Hargett, the Aggies’ brilliant
quarterback, has yet to throw
an interception this season Stall
ings pointed out.
Tickets to the Aggies’ first home
game against Texas Tech were
described as “going like hotcakes”
and A&M fans were urged to get
their tickets as soon as possible.
The Lubbock school has already
requested two extra batches of
500 tickets each for their fans.
You'll never get anywhere without it.
Nothing helps a young engineer's
career like being given a challenge.
Which is another way of saying a chance
to fail now and then. To make his own
mistakes.
At Western Electric we give our newly
recruited engineers responsibility almost
immediately. They make their own de
cisions. Learn from their own errors.
Don't get us wrong. We keep our
demands reasonable enough so that our
recruits can make their decisions at their
own pace. But our thinking is, a man
feels awfully good about even a small
decision when it's his.
If you're the type who'd like the chance
to make your own moves, see our recruiter

Aggie Fish Clash With Wog>T
In Real Grudge Match Tonigh! r
By RICHARD CAMPBELL
The Texas A&M Fish football
team is in Fort Worth tonight
taking on the highly-touted TCU
Wogs in a grudge match to even
the score following their 17-15
defeat of a year ago in College
Station.
“Anytime you give the ball up
without kicking, it’s demoralizing
to your team and stimulating to
theirs and they usually get good
field position out of it,” Stallings
said of the effect of an inter
ception.
The Aggie Fish will field one
of the most talent-laden teams
ever recruited by Coach Gene
Stallings but Fish Coach Jim
Keller was reluctant to speculate
on the final outcome of the game.
“I know what the boys can do
in practice, but I would hesitate
to guess at their overall perform
ance without ever seeing them
play,” Keller said. “However, the
boys have exhibited a real fine
attitude in practice and if that
counts, then they’ll be in the game
all the way.”
The offense will run the same
alignment as the varsity with two
split receivers, an end and a wing-
back. Tabbed to start on offense
for the Fish are: Quarterback, Joe
Mac King (190) or Mike Bunger
(19), Tailback, Steve Burks (175)
or Doug Neill (190); Wingback,
Billy Joe Polasek (170) or Joey
Herr (185); Fullback, Lanny
white (205); Strong End, Clifton
Thomas (220); Strong Tackle,
Tom Ripple (250); Strong Guard,
Barb Hinnant (198); Center, Ted
Smith (214); Weak Guard, Robin
Davis (205); Weak Tackle, Denver
Crawley (225); and Weak End,
Johnny Gardner (160).
Rover, Mike Lord (203); Half
backs, Edwin Ebrom (185) and
Chris Johnson (179); and Safety,
David Hoot (185).
Three of the new freshmen
crop will not play because of in
juries. Steve Luebbehusen will
miss this game because of a brok
en hand, Rick Oberlies will miss
the first two games with dis
located elbow, and Willis Winters
is probably out for the season
with a knee injury.
Handling the punting chores
for the Fish will be Joey Herr
and Lanny White with Billy
Martin kicking placements.
The TCU Wogs will greet
Fish with one of the best
it has recruited in recent yi
Coming off a 3-2 season in li
the Wogs will feature 37 f
District selections in high sdxi
with six making the AM I
team. Against the Fish, y.
young frogs hold a 14-4-21
and hope to improve on that
night.
The remaining schedule for §
Fish will be: Baylor at Wat;
p.m.; Rice at College Stat
7:30 p.m.; Texas Tech at Lubti j
7:30 p.m.; and Texas at Coll,

Southern Methodist’s passing
factory, headed by Chuck Hixson
and a whole batch of Mustang
receivers, is turning out a new
line of Southwest Conference
records and by the end of the
season, the whole record book may
be obsolete.

State. All three figures are SWC
records.
THE AGGIE head coach said
that Ross Brupbacher did a good
job at fullback particularly in
the blocking category. Brupbacher
will definitely start against Flori
da State but Stallings hasn’t de
cided whether it will be on of
fense or defense as of yet.
A&M got out of the Tulane
game with no new injuries but
neither fullback Wendell Housley
or middle guard Winston Beam
have recovered enough from pre
vious injuries to play in Talla
hassee.
The defensive team will line up
in the familiar five-man line with
two linebackers, a rover, and three
deep backs. Tentative starters on
the' defensive team will be Ends,
Wayne Wheat (225) and Tom
Evans (200); Tackles, John Cun
ningham (23.5) and Van Odom
(212), Middle Guard, Mike Fuller
(210); Linebackers, Cliff Thomas
(195) and Greg Thompson (197);
Flanker Jerry Levias is Hix
son’s chief supporting character.
He took over the conference lead
in receiving with 15 receptions
against the Buckeyes. Levias now
has 20 catches for the year.
SMU receivers practically own
the league's receiving department.
Led by Levias, the Ponies hold

in receiving.
