Intramural 1 By RICHARD CAMPBELL Assistant Sports Editor Jim Keller, coach of the un beaten Texas Aggie Fish foot ball team, expressed pleasure Tuesday when asked about the performance of the Fish in their first two games. He was especially pleased with the defensive team after holding both of their opponents, TCU and Baylor, to a total of three points. He also singled out the defensive secondary for their sec ond straight good game of the year. In the first game against the Wogs, which the Fish won, 9- 3, the secondary picked off three College Football Attendance Up NEW YORK With the top eight games drawing more than 60,000 each for the first time in history, college football attend ance has moved ahead of last year’s record pace based on the top 10 games. According to National Col legiate Sports Services statistics released Tuesday, last week’s top 10 games drew 653,943 and pushed this year’s five-week total to 3,176,406. That’s 7,979 more than the same period in 1967. passes and in last Thursday’s 24-0 romp over Baylor, they swiped four errant throws. “I would like to say, first of all, that both of these wins, especially the last one, were en tirely team efforts,” Keller said. “I don’t think there was a man on the field that didn’t give his full effort.” He did single out several play ers for special recognition, nam ing Van Odom, Tom Evans, Mike Fuller, and the entire secondary as outstanding. On offense, he praised both quarterbacks, Mike Bunger and Joe King, as vastly improved over the first game, and credited Steve Burks, John Gardner, Joey Herr, and Billy Joe Polasek with playing “out standing at times”. “I believe that the boys, espe cially the defense, played well when it had to,” Keller contin ued. “I was also pleased with the way we moved the ball and the overall improvement of our passing game”. “If there is anything we need to work on though, it would have to be our running game,” he added. “Against Rice (the next opponents for the Fish), we will probably be facing the best team we have played yet and we have got to be able to control the ball to beat them.” The Owlets come off a highly impressive Season opener, a 16-0 victory over the SMU frosh team, and hope to add the Aggie Fish to their scalp belt for new coach, Harold Mayo. The strongest po sition for the Baby Owls seems to be at the quarterbacking slot with highly-touted Texan Phillip Wood of McKinney and Stable Vincent of Greensboro, North Carolina fighting for the start ing spot. In the SMU game, each hit a touchdown pass, Vin cent hitting David Ashford of Smiley for 33 yards and Wood finding Bob Brown of Richardson for 22. The top rusher was hard hit ting Mike Spruill of Galena Park, who carried 20 times for 98 yards, but he is the only doubtful starter of the 41-man roster for this Friday’s game with the Texas Shorthorns in Austin. However, Mike Tyler of Waco and Jack Laurenzo of Houston St. Thomas both saw duty at that same tailback post against SMU. The Fish will start the same lineup as in the previous two games with Bunger expected to get the nod at quarterback. Also expected to be back for the Rice game is Steve Luebbehusen, who has been out for the year with a broken hand. Engineering and Science at IBM “You’re treated like a professional right from the start’ “The attitude here is, if you’re good enough to be hired, you’re good enough to be turned loose on a project,” says Don Feistamel. Don earned a B.S.E.E. in 1965. Today, he’s an Associate Engineer in systems design and evalua tion at IBM. Most of his work consists of determin ing modifications needed to make complex data processing systems fit the specialized requirements of IBM customers. Depending on the size of the project, Don works individually or in a small team. He’s now working with three other engineers on part of an air traffic control system that will process radar information by computer. Says Don: “There are only general guide lines. The assignment is simply to come up with the optimum system.” Set your own pace Recently he wrote a simulation program that enables an IBM computer to predict the per formance of a data processing system that will track satellites. He handled that project him self. “Nobody stands over my shoulder,” Don says. “I pretty much set my own pace.” Don’s informal working environment is typi cal of Engineering and Science at IBM. No matter how large the project, we break it down into units small enough to be handled by one person or a few people. Don sees a lot of possibilities for the future. He says, “My job requires that I keep up to date with all the latest IBM equipment and systems programs. With that broad an outlook, I can move into almost any technical area at IBM—development, manufacturing, product test, space and defense projects, programming or marketing.” Visit your placement office Sign up at your place ment office for an inter view with IBM.

But in his own quiet, grin ning way, Rolf Krueger can cause a lot of noise at his defensive tackle slot for the Texas Aggies. Krueger, at 6-4 and 240, is the largest player among Aggie reg ulars. He’s steady, if not spec tacular, but still hasn’t really performed up to his great poten tial this season. The agile senior from Bryan has been coming on rapidly of late, however, and this week against Baylor he could make his presence even better known. Quick, strong and durable, Krueger has all the tools re quired for a standout defensive tackle and that’s what he’s been for the past two years at Aggie- land. He moved in as a starter when he was a sophomore and he has been there ever since. Pro scouts have had their eyes on him for a long time and playing professional football is Rolf’s present goal, when he finishes his career at A&M. campi Krueger probably has knocked down more enemy passes than any interior lineman in the Southwest over the past two and a half seasons.
