Instead of Joe Namath, George
Sauer, Matt Snell and other
members of the Super Bowl
champion Jets, conversation has
switched to Willis Reed, Dave
DeBusschere, Walt Frazier, Dick
Barnett and Bill Bradley, the big
five of the National Basketball
Association contenders.
Since they acquired DeBus
schere, an able, eager and husky
forward from Detroit for center
Walt Bellamy and guard Howie
Komives, the Knicks have com
piled a 24-4 record. This was
through Wednesday afternoon.
They were in third place in
the NBA’s Eastern Division, only
three games behind the pace
setting Baltimore Bullets.

the Knicks attracted 385,964
fans, an average of 14,296 at
prices ranging from $3.50 to $7.
A year ago, when the Knicks un
veiled Bradley and had several
sellouts, the club drew 373,118
customers for an average of 13,-
819 for 27 dates.
This season the Knicks already
have had three 19,500 sellouts
and two other crowds of more
than 19,000. Knick officials esti
mated 10,000 fans were turned
away from the Feb. 1 Saturday
night game with the Boston
Celtics.
The closing schedule at the
Garden includes dates with all
of the leaders. Officials expect
the Knicks’ attendance record of
536,162, set last year, will be sur
passed.

miler Curtis Mills and shot put
ter Ronnie Lightfoot — have
been invited to compete in the
Mason Dixon Games in Louis

Mills will compete in a special
500-yard dash, an event that is
loaded with outstanding runners.
Lightfoot will compete in the
shot put.
Mills set a Sugar Bowl meet
record of 47.5 in the 440-yard
dash and set an indoor record for
the Monroe, La., meet this year
with a 49.0 clocking. His best
440 ever was a 46.1 in the SWC
meet last spring.
Lightfoot’s top throw in the
shot has been 57-10.

and Wylie the only non-Aggies.
Two quarterbacks, two lineback
ers and two linemen make up the
Aggies’ collection of blue chips.

ready landed 13 of the Houston
area’s brightest schoolboy stars.

2nd Meet Of Year
The Brazos Bowmen Archery
Club of A&M will have the second
club shoot of the year Sunday at
1 p.m., according to club reporter
John Bendele.
A demonstration and help ses
sion will be held by Mike Palmer,
1968 national champion, on Farm
Road 60 across from the Country
Kitchen at 12:30 before the meet.
“A 28 target range will be
shot, fourteen of which are new,”
said Bendele.

terback in the National Football at the range. Also, bows and
League, was signed Wednesday arrows will be furnished,
as an assistant coach of the
Green Bay Packers.
The 37-year-old Bratkowski, a
veteran of 13 seasons in the
NFL, was the second Packer vet
eran to join the coaching staff in
the past three days. Coach Phil
Bengston appointed retired
tackle Forrest Gregg as a coach
Monday. Bengston’s moves came
in the wake of the departure of
Vince Lombardi as general man
ager.
Bratkowski’s coaching duties
were not outlined but he will
probably work with the offen
sive backfield. He refused to
say whether he would continue
as a player as well as a coach.
He reportedly has done his cus
tomary off-season conditioning
this winter and may be avail
able for duty behind Bart Starr
if necessary.
The Packers have two other
quarterbacks, besides Starr and
Bratkowski. Don Horn, who
spent most of last season in the
armed forces, is expected to take
over as Starr’s chief understudy.
Bill Stevens, who played only
two downs as a rookie last sea
son, is the other. The develop
ment of Stevens and Horn prob
ably will determine Bratkowski’s
playing status.
