THE BATTALIOI
Aggies tangle with powerful Buckeyes
By CLIFFORD BROYLES
Battalion Sports Writer
The Texas Aggies will be —
for the third time this season —
the opening game for their op
ponent when they battle the Ohio
State University Buckeyes at
Ohio Stadium Saturday at 12:30
p.m.
The meeting will be the sec
ond ever between the two schools,
with Ohio State nailing a 17-0
loss on the Aggies in "1963 when
Hank Roldberg was head coach
of the Maroon.
A&M, which blasted Wichita
State in its opener and helped
open Louisiana State Universi
ty’s season with a 20-18 victory
over the Tigers will be out to
pull a major upset.
Ohio State has credentials that
can be matched by none and will
be in a revengeful mood Satur
day when they hit the field for
the first time since their 24-12
loss to the University of Michi
gan in the final game of 1969.
That loss, the Buckeyes first
since 1967 cost them the number
one ranking in the nation’s foot
ball polls.
This season the Buckeyes are
ranked number one in the Asso
ciated Press poll, which is select
ed by sports writers, and second
to the University of Texas at
Austin in the United Press In
ternational Poll selected by
coaches.
A&M, rated from third to sev
enth in pre-season polls for the
Southwest Conference race has
a few observers blinking their
eyes because of its quick start.
The Aggie upset of LSU last
week has brought several na
tional awards to A&M football
ers. Linebacker Mike Lord was
selected as the Associated Press’s
SWC defensive player of the
week and also received the same
award from the Dallas Morning
News.
Quarterback Lex James was
selected a member of United
Press International’s National
backfield of the week and also
was named UPI’s SWC back of
the week.
Thursday, in the latest award,
Coach Gene Stallings was named
UPI’s national coach of the week.
The Aggies go into the game
with a few injuries that may
sideline several starters and key
second teamers for the contest.
Lord and right halfback Brad
Dusek both have missed practice
this week but will make the trip,
although their playing status is
questionable, Stallings said
Thursday.
If Dusek doesn’t play it may
mean Elmendorf could see his
first action on offense this sea
son.
Steve Luebbehusen, left line
backer who missed the LSU
game because of shin splints and
Chris Johnson, second unit left
cornerback, was injured in the
LSU game, will not make the
trip, Stallings said.
Clifton Thomas will again re
place Luebbehusen and Grady
Hoermann is a strong possibility
to replace Lord if he does not
play. Sophomore Kent Finley
will man the right linebacker
post for the Aggies.
The Aggies will have the same
lineup for the contest as last
week at other positions, with Lex
James again handling the quar
terbacking duties and Doug Neill
starting at fullback. Steve
Burks will man the right half
back spot.
Burks is the Aggies’ leading
rusher after two games, with 102
yards. Dusek has 93, Neill 58,
Doug Robbins 31 and Marc Black
25.
Hugh McElroy, Rocky Self,
Tommy Goodwin and Joey Herr
will be the main target as split
receivers for James. McElroy
What Are The Implications Of The
Lawsuit Against The Mayor And City
Councilmen Of College Station?
Mr. A. P. Boyett, Sr. and others sued Robert S. Calvert, State Comptroller, in an Aus
tin court seeking to prevent him from paying the Texas A&M University salaries of the
Mayor and five city councilmen of College Station while these men are serving in city gov
ernment. This suit claims that an “employee” of Texas A&M University is an “agent’ of
ficer or appointee” of the State of Texas and thus ineligible to draw a state salary while
holding an office of honor or trust such as service on the City Council even though such
service is without compensation.
While this Austin lawsuit applies only to the particular individuals who have been
sued, and is being heard in Austin since the State Comptroller is involved, the City and
most of the citizens are concerned greatly with the wider implications.
WHAT ARE THESE IMPLICATIONS?
Without doubt no employee of Texas A&M University who requires his salary for
a livelihood could afford to serve on any City Council, a School Board, or in any other ca
pacity, appointive or elective, which would be considered a position of honor or trust
even though no compensation would be paid for such service.
This same prohibition to serve would apply to all staff, faculty and employees of
every state-supported college and university in Texas.
Numerous people now residing in this community would suffer a disqualification
from public service notwithstanding outstanding individual capabilities. Not only would
employees of Texas A&M University be excluded from public service, but other state em
ployees would be effected equally.
Voter choice here and elsewhere could be severely restricted and majority rule may
be in jeopardy.
The Right To Serve League has been organized by concerned citizens to keep the
public fully informed as to the status of this case and in support of voter freedom of
choice and the right to serve.
THIS AD PAID FOR BY THE CITIZENS RIGHT TO SERVE LEAGUE
SANDSTEDT, SECRETARY-TREASURER).
(J. B. HERVEY, CHAIRMAN, MRS. CLARA L.
has caught nine passes in two
games for 243 yards to lead the
receivers, and Self has three re
ceptions. Goodwin has two and
Herr has one.
Tight end Homer May has been
a top threat in the Aggie offense
also, snagging five passes for
better than a 20 yard average.
Ted Smith will again start at
center, Leonard Forey and Jim
Parker at the guards and Andy
Philley and Benny DeWitt at the
tackles in the offensive line.
The defensive line will remain
the same with veteran Van Od
om and sophomore Bolce Best
lining up at the tackles and Todd
Christopher and Max Bird at the
ends.
The defensive secondary will
have Elmendorf at free safety
and David Hoot will be the free
safety.
Ed Ebrom will be left corner-
back and Bland Smith will be the
right cornerback. Because of the
injury to Johnson, sophomore
Robert Murski may be the num
ber one backup for both corner-
back positions.
Ohio State will counter with a
veteran lineup that includes 18
two-year lettermen and at least
six All-American candidates.
The Buckeye attack is led by
All-American candidate at quar
terback Rex Kern. Kern’s main
credit is the fact the Buckeyes
have lost only one game in the
two years he has been signal
caller.
He has rushed for 1,000 yards
and scored nine touchdowns, i
well as passing for nine lasts®

LOU'S GOT IT
By STEPHEN BRYANT
Battalion Sports Writer
The Southwest Conference foot
ball race gets underway Saturday
night in Lubbock, with two un
defeated teams battling it out.
The home standing Texas Tech
Red Raiders have a two-game
winning streak going after open
ing with wins over Tulane and
Kansas.
The number one ranked Texas
Longhorns (by UPI poll) have
won their last 21 games, with the
last loss being to the Raiders in
Lubbock in 1968.
The ’horns are heavy favorites.
However, the Raiders, under new
coach Jim Carlen, should make
this one an interesting contest.
In Waco this week, the Baylor
Bears, with a 1-1 record, take on
Pittsburgh.
The Panthers are 0-1, having
lost to heavily favored UCLA
last week. In this night contest
Pitt will rate as a slight favorite
over the Bears.
Quarterback John Hogan of
Pitt put on an impressive show
in the loss to UCLA as he hit on
29 of 47 passes for 299 yards,
tops in the nation. His favorite
receiver, Dennis Ferris, grabbed
10 of those to take the receiving
lead and Pitt’s punter, Joe Spicko,
is tied for national punting
honors.
The Rice Owls, coming off a
42-0 opening win over VMI, go
to Baton Rouge to face the Tigers
of LSU. The Tigers are recooping
from a 20-18 battering upset by
the Texas Aggies. Tiger Stadium
should be full again Saturday
night and the Cats will be out
to even things up with their
SWC foes.
Chuck Hixson and the SMU
Mustangs, the only winless team
in the conference after two weeks
of play, face the New Mexico
State Aggies in the Cotton Bowl.
The Mustangs are heavy favor
ites in this afternoon encounter.
Ron James of the Aggies has
run for 2,473 yards in two varsity
seasons and is off to a good start
with 110 more last week.
The Arkansas Razorbacks are
at home this week, after splitting
their first two games. The Hogs
dropped their opener to Stanford
but pounded Oklahoma State last
week.
Providing the opposition for
the Razorbacks will be the Tulsa
Hurricanes, who are undefeated
in two starts.
Game time is 2 p.m. in the
hills.
Junior quarterback Steve Judy
and the TCU Horned Frogs go
north to Wisconsin to tangle with
the UW Badgers, who are winless
after one outing.
The Frogs, so far, whipped the
University of Texas at Arlington
and looked good despite losing to
Purdue. The Frogs are slight
favorites in the afternoon battle
at Madison.
