They also had three pass interceptions and lost five fum bles. In the fourth period, Fish Coach Jim Keller sent in a fresh offensive team. The spotless white jerseys cranked up a drive which yielded them a touchdown and dirty jerseys like the rest of the team. Jerry Sherman went the final 12 yards for the score to bring the total to 36-8. Adami Anchors Aggie Defense In these days of soaring scores, the Texas Aggies are showing that there is still a place for defense. In their last five games, the Aggie defense has allowed just six touchdowns. Until Texas Tech scored with 1:16 left in the game, A&M had not allowed a tuoch- down in five quarters. A major share of the credit for that performance goes to senior linebacker Buster Adami. Adami calls the defensive signals and also contributes some big plays. His performance against Tech played a big part in limiting the potent Raiders to 208 total yards. Making big plays isn’t anything new for the Freer native. Adami made a fourth quarter intercep tion which secured A&M’s 10-7 victory over Texas in 1967 and cinched the Southwest Conference title. But despite being a two-year starter in the time-consuming pressure cooker of major college football, the 6-1, 210-pounder hasn’t neglected the classroom responsibilities of his scholar ship. After coming out of Freer as president of his high school Na tional Honor Society and vale dictorian of his graduating class, Adami has made the Distinguish ed Student list at A&M and was voted to the All-SWC academic honor team. His major is govern ment, and he plans to go to law school. SURE HANDS Manning the split end post for the Aggies Saturday will senior Barney Harris, third this year in SWC pass re tions.
