A year ago, Coach Gene Stal lings said of him: “Ed’s an emo tional football player. That’s the kind I like. Ed’s getting better every week. He’s going to be a real good one before he’s through.” With his sophomore season of starting every game behind him, Ebrom now is engaged in spring training, doing all he can to retain that starting slot as he approach es his junior season. perma-crease Westbury Slacks $mt Mnincs umberBitp men’s! toear 329 University Drive 713/846-2706 College Station, Texas 77840 How long since you went to a good party?

He intercepted two passes and returned one for a touchdown. It that wasn’t his happiest day, then the day he was offered a scholarship to A&M was. “I always wanted to go to A&M,” Ed says. “When I was offered a scholarship it was the happiest day of my life.

A sore-armed Longhorn pitch ing staff could give the Bears a chance to spoil Texas’ hopes of pulling closer to Texas A&M. The Aggies have won 9 and lost none, and Texas is 5-0, but All-American pitchers Burt Hoo- ton and James Street both are ailing. Hooton, 4-1, has had arm trou ble all year and is “extremely doubtful” against Baylor. Street, 5-0 with a perfect game against Texas Tech, has been bothered by a pulled groin muscle which he reinjured April 8.

Woven with richly colored strands of silk and wool, they often pictured scenes from the Bible. To create a beautiful tapestry required patience . . . skill . . . devotion. Today each of us weaves a tapestry — the fabric of our lives. We sit at a loom, wonder ing whether the pattern of our lives will be of bright rose, green or golden threads, or whether the events will show as somber, dark colors. A weaver in the Middle Ages worked on the reverse side of his tapestry. By looking up at a mirror, he could see how the entire design looked on the right side. When we look up to God in worship, we con see with clarity the pattern of our lives. Attend the church of your choice for perspective on your life's tapestry.
