THE BATTALION
Aggies, Bears Clash Saturday Night
By Richard Campbell
Battalion Sports Editor
It could be a little premature,
but Saturday night’s clash
against the Baylor Bears could
prove to be the 1970 turning
point for Shelby Metcalf’s Texas
Aggies in the defense of their
conference throne.
The 1968-69 SWC champs will
have their hands full with the
8-3 Bears, who bring an out
standing team to G. Rollie White
for the 8 p.m. tip-off. Because
Baylor and A&M could very well
be battling for the conference
title come late February and ear
ly March, a win at this stage for
either one may give the other the
edge they need.
“We’ll have to play them hon
estly,” Metcalf said, “because
they are such a well-balanced
team. They can all shoot and
they are all good athletes so we
won’t be able to concentrate on
just one man to stop their of
fense.”
Willie Chatmon, a 6-6 junior
college transfer from Tyler, has
proven to be the catalyst this
year in the revived Bear attack.
“I think that Chatmon has
been the big difference in their
team this year,” Metcalf contin
ued. “He is the leading rebound
er in the conference and one of
the top shooters from the field
in the nation.”
Unfortunately, the Aggies will
not be able to focus all their at
tention on Chatmon because of
the fine balance the Bears showed
in their opening 81-58 thumping
of pre-season conference leader
Texas. Larry Gatewood, a 6-5
forward hit for 24 points against
the Longhorns and Tom Stanton,
a sophomore guard gave them the
leadership they needed at that
position. Other starters for the
Bears will be 6-5 Tommy Bow
man, a two-time All-SWC selec
tion at forward, and either Tom
Friedman (6-4) or Pat Fees (6-
7).
The streaking A g g i e s have
now won their last four straight,
all of them on the road, and
that includes Tuesday night’s
conference win over Arkansas,
64-59, in Fayetteville.
“They (Baylor) will show us a
lot of multiple defenses,” Met
calf said, “but our squad this
year is a pretty smart group and
I think they’ll be ready.”
A&M is averaging 76 points
per contest this year with 6-4
senior captain Mike Heitmann
leading the scoring parade with a
19.2 norm. Jhnior center Steve
Niles is next at 13.3 with an
average of 10.4 rebounds and Bill
Cooksey at 12.8 and Chuck
Smith at 12.7 give the Aggies
four starters averaging in dou
ble figures. Pat Kavanaugh, the
6-0 playmaker is hitting at a 5.7
clip.
Baylor’s record has been hi.
hanced this season by prestigh
wins over New Mexico State ami
Wyoming, both nationally ranW
The Aggies, now 6-4 for tin
year, hold wins over Clemson
Furman, and Northwestern.

Fish Seek Third Straight
As Cubs Invade G. Rollie
The Church..For a Fuller Life..For You..
Swaying on a limb outside my kitchen, a bird flapped his sleek
black wings and curved his throat in a burst of pure beauty.
“Watch out!” I wanted to cry. For over by the woodpile Tabby
crouched, carved in predatory silence. Stone-like she stared,
as the bird warbled, and even after the songster flashed off in a
streak, she sat impassively.
How like our Tabby we humans sometimes are. Caught in the
frenzy of making a living, stalemated with problems, we look
indifferently at our world. Forgetting that God reveals Himself
in simple ways, we overlook the laughter of a child, the smile of a
stranger, and the flaming colors of our landscape.
Your church can show you how to find joy in life again.
Within its fellowship you can learn the happiness which comes from
loving God and serving Him.

in the two games.
