Aggies Sign
Sprint Star
The Texas Aggie track team
has added another feather in its
cap, but this one will be good
for the future.
Aggie coach Charlie Thomas
has announced that sprinter Ken
Curl of Houston Worthing High
School has signed a- letter-of-in-
tent to run for A&M next year.
Curl, a senior who has been
injured most of this season, is
one of the top track men in the
national high school ranks. When
he was a sophomore, he was
clocked in 9.3 seconds for the
100-yard dash and won the 100
last year in the state meet.

awarded a scholarship provided
by Lilly Dairy Products of Bryan.
The recipients are selected by
the dairy manufacturing staff

Dill of the Dairy Section.
Texas Longhorns. Nobody really expected them to complete
a sweep of three from the powerful Horns, but they did jump
on Texas’ fine pitcher James Street, and managed to knock
him out in the sixth inning of the opener, which they won,
7-5. They did lose, 8-0, in the second game to give the Steers
the Southwest Conference crown, but they have produced
the best Aggie record ever, a 25-8 mark with today’s game
the last of the year.

With all this talk about the speed on the Aggie track
team some of us tend to forget that there are others that are
just as deserving of laurels but sometimes go unnoticed
because the speed demons get most of the ink. A case in
point would be the high jumpers in general and Ben
Greathouse in particular. Greathouse has jumped 6-10 this
year and has become very consistent at anywhere from 6 7
up. There was a time at the Southwest Conference Meet at
Pasadena last weekend when he could have choked under
pressure. Some people say that he talks himself into getting
over that bar, especially when the going gets tough. What ever
it is, it works.
Some of the other jumpers are Marvin Taylor, who has
all the talent in the world but is still looking for that
consistency which will make him a medal-winner in every
meet; Kim Sutton, who came through with a 6-5 at the SWC
meet good for fourth place; and John Taylor, who was
consistent at 6-7 in nearly every meet.
Willie Blackmon gave the Aggies an unexpected point in
the 880-yard dash and apparently has recovered from his
ailing leg which has sidelined him most of the year. Larry
McIntyre overcame his injuries to tie for fifth in the pole
vault and Ronnie Lightfoot got a second in the shot put after
battling a bad shoulder all season.

Arkansas converged on College Station today to compete in
the fourth annual Texas A&M News Media golf tournament.

box Saturday to cover the Maroon-White football game that

NEW YORK (iP) — And now
the envelope please for this
year’s Cy Young: Award win
ner . . .
Would you believe Tom Seav
er again ? He has the vote of
Los Angeles’ Manager Walt Al
ston and probably some of his
players.
“Seaver is tops with no ques
tions,” Alston said after the
New York Mets’ Cy Young win
ner of 1969 beat his Dodgers 5-4
Wednesday night in cold, blus
tery Shea Stadium.
Although Seaver needed ninth
inning relief help, he picked up
his sixth victory this season and
16th in succession over two years
in regular season play.
“He’s tough out there in any
weather,” said Alston. “But we
battled him. Our kids sure as
heck fought back.”
Hank Aaron crashed his 11th
homer and Phil Niekro pitched
a five-hitter as Atlanta beat
Pittsburgh 3-0 for its ninth
straight and Philadelphia rallied
to edge San Diego 4-3 in the
night’s only other games. Snow
halted San Francisco at Mont
real.
In the American League, New
York beat Oakland 7-6; Balti
more turned back Kansas City
3- 1; Detroit stopped Minnesota
5-2; Chicago tripped Cleveland
2-1; Milwaukee defeated Boston
4- 3 and California defeated
Washington 4-2.
Reliever Ron Taylor said he
felt he “was in for a night off”
with Seaver going against the
hitting-poor Dodgers. Seaver has
lost only once to them in his ca
reer.
Leading 5-1, Seaver opened
the ninth with his eighth strike
out. But then he came unglued
with a walk to Wes Parker, a
single by Bill Sudakis and a
three-run homer by Willie Craw
ford.
An infield single by Billy Gra-
barkewitz and a bloop hit to right
by Ted Sizemore followed and
Seaver gave way to Taylor,
got the last two outs.
The victory was Seaver's si
enth straight over the Dodgt
and his ninth in 10 lifetime dec
sions.
Aaron’s two-run homer, 565!
of his career, sent the Braves;
a 2-0 lead in the opening innii
ahd that was all Niekro need;
to record his third victory;
seven decisions.
Rico Carty extended his E
ting streak to 25 games witli
sixth-inning double that drove:
Aaron with the Braves’ ollt
run. Aaron was on base with
single, his 2,988th lifetime t
Niekra: "I threw only sen
or eight fast balls, the rest we
knucklers.”
“I got ahead of most of tk
hitters and when I got behind,:
could still get it over when Ik:
to,” said Niekro, who threw 1!
pitches. “Yes, it’s the best h
pitched this year.”
It was Niekro’s second shuts;
over the Pirates this year, 1
held them hitless for 6 2-3 is

and wound up with a two-hitte
