THE BATTALION
Raindrops Key To Track Meet
NEW RECORD HOLDERS—This quartet now holds the
A&M school record in the mile relay after they blazed to a
3:08.4 clocking in the Texas Relays last weekend in Austin.
They are left to right: Curtis Mills, Marvin Mills, Harold
McMahan, and Don Kellar. (Photo by Mike Wright)
“Raindrops Keep Falling On
My Head” won the academy
award Tuesday for song of the
year and it is very ironic that its
singer, B. J. Thomas, did a lot of
his early living in Houston.
Sounded like he knew what he
was singing about because again
rain will dampen everything
about the Aggies’ triangular
track meet Saturday with Rice
and Texas in the Bayou City.
Although the track will be wet,
the A&M tracksters cannot af
ford to be if they hope to keep
up their momentum for the
Southwest Conference Meet
scheduled for May 1 and 2, that
is, if it is not rained out. The
Cadets are riding the crest of
three school records set last
weekend in the Texas Relay
carnival in Austin. The 880 relay
unit of Donny Rogers, Rpckie
Woods, Marvin Mills and Curtis
Mills tied the world mark of
1:22.1, which was set by San
Jose State in 1967. The other
two school marks came in the
440-yard hurdles where Don Kal-
lar blazed to a 50.6 clocking and
in the mile relay where Kellar,
Harold McMahan, and the Mills
brothers ran a 3:08.4.
They also set a new Texas
Relays mark in the 440-yard re
lay where Scott Hendricks,
Woods and the Mills again were
timed in 39.7. The A&M school
record is 39.5, set last season by
three of this crew.
Baseball Series Postponed

The Texas Aggies are back to
their old ways of making rain as
this weekend’s crucial three-game
series with Rice University has
been postponed until Monday and
Tuesday.
Bruce Katt was to have start
ed the first game of the double-

game planned for Tuesday after
noon at 3. Lefty Doug Rau will
pitch the Tuesday affair.
The Aggies are currently 6-0
and atop the standings. Texas
trails A&M by one-half game at
5-0. The surprising Owls are in
third place with a 5-1 record.
The Owls jumped into the
midst of things with a three
game sweep over Texas Tech and
with two wins over Texas Chris
tian.
ing a shutout in his only confer
ence outing, Katt leads the staff
with a 0.00 earn run average,

Despite several key injuries,
the Aggies have gotten superb
performances from several of
their freshmen to take up the
slack and Coach Charlie Thomas
has to be happy about his depth
this year as compared to last
season.
A rundown of the events shows
that the Aggies have performed
well enough to capture most of
the first places should they do
as well in the SWC meet in
May. Sammy Skinner has run
a 4:13.7 mile thus far and could
pick up points in that, Curtis
Mills has raced to a 46.4 in the
440-yard dash, far off his world’s
record of 44.7 but fast enough to
take the first place. Marvin
Mills and Woods, last year’s
winner, both have been clocked
in 9.6 for the 100 yard dash
while Marvin has the fastest
SWC mark for the 220 yard dash
with a 21.2.
Marc Black has thrown the
javelin 211-5 ^ for the third best
mark in the conference and Ron
nie Lightfoot has the lead in
both the shot put and the discus.
Marvin Taylor at 6-9, John Tay
lor at 6-8 and Ben Greathouse
at 6-7 control the high jump.

"That question has a double meaning]” you protest. Yes,
it has. Either you’re letting life carry you along its bumpy
road, just shrugging your shoulders and "making the best
of it” ... or you’ve discovered the secret of making the
BEST of life by choosing God’s way and letting Him do the
steering.

Psalms
19:7-14
It isn’t really a secret. Anyone can find it if he searches
with complete sincerity. Through prayer, through regular
church attendance, through Bible reading, the answers will
come if we persevere. Gradually we will accept God’s plan
for us and understand the full, triumphant meaning of the
words of Jesus: "Nothing shall by any means hurt you.”
There is no voyage of discovery more exciting or chal
lenging than this one. And our God-guided efforts will bring
us to the BEST of life ... a reward greater than any worldly
goal we could name.
