LI CA Pag-e 4 College Station, Texas Tuesday, January 7, 1969 THE BATTALION SWC Race Gets Underway As Aggies Host Tech Tonight By JOHN PLATZER Another hectic Southwest Con ference basketball chase gets underway tonight at 8 for the Aggies in G. Rollie White as they host the Texas Tech Red Raiders. A&M, the pre-season confer ence favorite, returns from its holiday excursion with the Con solation Championship trophy from the All-College Tournament in Oklahoma City. Coach Shelby Metcalf’s cagers enter tonight’s SWC opener with a 5-4 season mark while Tech has posted a 3-4 record in non-conference com petition. After losing an opening round contest to Duquesne 93-71, the Aggies came alive to post two- point victories over Upiversity of the Pacific (77-75) and Wyoming (83-81). Sonny Benefield, A&M’s 6-1 guard from Sweeny, led his team to the Consolation prize with a 34 point effort, the high mark for any Aggie thus far this season. Benefield hit on 16 of 22 field goal attempts against Wyoming and connected on a 20-foot jumper from the side with 8 seconds re maining to provide the margin of victory. Steve Niles, the Aggies’ seven- foot sophomore from San An tonio, turned in his finest per formances of the season on the trip before being injured on the first play of the Wyoming con- A&M Gymnasts Whip NTSU In First Meet Be on the lookout for this enemy agent Gordon B.

Chuck Smith, another soph omore, replaced Niles in the game and ended up A&M’s top re bounder with 11. In the win over Pacific, Niles poured in 16 points and grabbed 14 rebounds. Billy Bob Barnett was the leading Aggie scorer in the game with 17. The Aggies had opened their holiday tour with a 79-60 defeat at the hands of Wichita State in Wichita. The Red Raiders from Lubbock have posted wins over Loyola of New Orleans, Houston Baptist The Texas A&M Gymnastics Team got its first taste of com petition Dec. 20 as it downed the North Texas State Eagles in Denton. Coach Bob Mitchell’s seven gymnasts accumulated 77>.65 points in six events to 72.50 for the Eagles. In the first event the floor exercise, A&M’s Bill Wood and Mickey Stratton fin ished second and third respec tively to keep the Aggies even with NTSU in points. In the side horse event, the Aggies had only Mike Kyler, who finished second, in the scoring column. In the horizontal bar, A&M dominated the event as Mickey Stratton finished first and his brother Rex took third. With a fine following perform ance by Kyler, the Aggies now trailed by only .5 points. In the vaulting, the only point- maker for the Ags was Mickey Stratton with a second place fin ish. But in the parallel bars, the Aggies pulled ahead to stay with the Stratton brothers dominating the event. Rex Stratton was first, Mickey was second, and younger brother Jack added the final points. The rings were the final event and the Aggies increased their lead on a near perfect perform ance by Kyler which earned him a first place berth. Mickey Strat ton finished second and Barnett Smith added a fine finishing rou tine to give the Aggies the vic tory. The next encounter for the team will be in Houston on Feb. 14 when they compete in a tri angular meet with San Jacinto and Odessa. ALOHA!

Sports Programs Face Bankruptcy LOS ANGELES The ath letic director of Oregon State University warned Monday that college sports programs face bankruptcy if costs continue at the present accelerated pace. “Everybody is trying to keep up with the Joneses,” James Bar- ratt told a meeting of National Collegiate Athletic Association representatives studying the col lege financial dilemma. “If the current trend is allowed to continue, some colleges won’t be able to make it and a lot of coaches will be out selling real estate and insurance.” Barratt addressed a roundtable meeting of university administra tors and with athletic directors. Faced with skyrocketing costs, c o 11 e g,e heads are discussing means of cutting costs, including reduction of grants-in-aid, elim ination of spring practice and re turn to limited substitution — or the so-called one-platoon system. The proposed change in college rules, eliminating the current free substitution which permits use of full units on offense and defense, has created the greatest contro versy. There is a strong move among athletic directors and faculty rep resentatives to return to one- platoon football, which was in effect between 1952 and 1965. College coaches are almost unanimously opposed to the re turn of limited substitution and other influential college spokes men insist such a move would return the game to the dark ages and turn the spectator appeal over to the pros.
