THE BATTALION
Ebrom Is An Emotional Player
They don’t call him “Eager
Ed,” but defensive back Ed
Ebrom of the Texas Aggies is
one eager, emotional, enthusias
tic football player.
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.

It’ll always be the now

feels good. Anxiety is bad.
Financial anxiety is
very bad. Avoid it through

because the earlier you

the more security you’ll

Ebrom’s high mark of last year
came in the 24-0 win over Baylor.
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. Now
that I’ve been here a while, it’s
even better than I expected.”
Ebrom was a tailback, quarter
back and defensive halfback at

Steers Try To
Catch Aggies
AUSTIN (A*) — Texas will try
to make up lost ground in the
Southwest Conference baseball
race with a three-game series
against Baylor this weekend.
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.

years and he set a school record

One year at Karnes City, he

Netters Win, 5-1
Texas A&M’s tennis team hosts
the University of Texas in a
SWC match Saturday and Aggie
Coach Omar Smith is hopeful
that his squad can continue their
home-court jinx over the Long
horns.
“It has been eight years since
Texas beat us here,” Smith said.
“They got a tie with us in 1968.”
Smith hasn’t definitely decided
on his lineup for Saturday’s 1:30
p.m. match and he may not make
that decision until shortly before
the action starts.
But, on the basis of recent
action, it appears that Dickie
Fikes, Bruce Crumley, Lawton
Park and Tommy Connell will
play singles for the Aggies.
David Chastain or Mike Hickey
could break into the lineup for
the doubles compettion.
They upped their season record
to 11-13 with a 5-1 win over
TCU in Fort Worth Wednesday.
Dickie Fikes fell victim to the
Frogs’ Marcello Dela Serna in
the number one singles match.
Dela Serna has now won the
only two points the Frogs have
this season having defeated the
number one player from Texas,
John Mozola, on Tuesday.
Bruce Crumley, Tommy Con
nell and Lawton Park won their
singles matches for the Aggies.
Results of the match were:
Marcello Dela Serna, TCU
def. Dickie Fikes, A&M, 6-2 6-4.
Bruce Crumley, A&M, def. Juan
Coraminas, TCU, 6-3 6-4.
Tommy Connell, A&M, def.
John Fletcher, TCU, 6-0 6-1.
Lawton Park, A&M, def. Ned
James, TCU, 7-5 6-1.
Doubles:
Fikes and Hickey, A&M, def.
Dela Serna and John Kritzer,
TCU, 6-3 6-1.
Park and Connell, A&M, def.
Coraminas and Fletcher, TCU,
6-1 6-2.
Smith was highly complimen
tary about his young" squad that
currently has a SWC record of
11-13. Texas brings a 14-10 mark
into Saturday’s play so a solid
win by the Aggies could move

them ahead of the Steers in
league standings.
Crumley is the only senior on
the Aggie playing squad and he
has been doing a good job in the
No. 2 spot. Fikes, in the No. 1
position, has lost some tough
matches lately but could break
out of the slump Saturday.
Freshman Lawton Park is one
of the most pleasant surprises.
He has an 11-1 record in singles
this year. Tommy Connell, a soph
omore, has been coming along
rapidly, too.
Fikes is a sophomore while
Hickey is a junior and Chastain
is a sophomore.
The action will bestaged on
A&M’s varsity courts just south
east of Kyle Field stadium.

The Church..For a Fuller Lile..For You..
Magnificent tapestries, sometimes taking years to complete, decorated the walls of many
homes and churches in the Middle Ages. 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.
