The 12:50 p.m. game will be televised regionally from the Cotton Bowl as the Aggies go to work before the tube for the first time since they were stopped by Arkansas in Fayetteville last October. The Mustangs, with a 1-2 league mark, will be rebounding from consecutive league setbacks to Texas Tech and the University of Texas at Austin. The Aggies have found the wrong end of the scoreboard belonging to them in ceptions. One record is in reach of the Mustang signal caller Saturday, since he needs only two touch down passes to equal the record of 40 career scoring passes of the Aggies’ Ed Hargett. Hixson rates first in passing statistics in the conference, with A&M signal caller Lex James running second. Last year the Aggies managed a 20-10 victory on Kyle Field with Hixson hitting on 20 of 28 passes for 237 yards in the con test. Hixson used his strong- point, the short pass, to effec tiveness in that game but inter ceptions by David Hoot and a continuing mystery of fumbles and interceptions that has turned their conference picture into a Saturday night horror movie. The Aggies lost four fumbles and had four interceptions against Arkansas and have turned the ball over 32 times in the first eight games. Another downfall of the Ags this fall has been the pass block- ■ ing, which reached its peak last weekend with James being dropped 11 times for 118 yards. He has been dropped for losses totaling 424 yards in eight games and has been under constant pres sure from opposing defenses. These will have to be overcome Saturday if victory is to prevail for the Aggies. Injuries also are haunting the maroon, with Andy Philley and Mike Lord out for the year with knee injuries and numerous other players sidelined. Left tackle Robert Gerasimo- wicz suffered a pulled hamstring muscle in practice Wednesday and may miss the game. If he doesn’t play he will be replaced by Benny DeWitt. Ralph Sacra will make his first start at left tackle in place of Philley. Free safety Dave Elmendorf has been sick with the flu this week and his status is doubtful. Elmendorf, who is tied with Bruce Bushong of Tech for the lead in interceptions with four, will be replaced by Lee Hitt if he is unable to go. It will be a reunion for Aggie running back Steve Burks. Last years as a sophomore Burks subbed for Larry Stegent and picked up 100 yards on only four carries, including a 37-yard touchdown run in the fourth per iod that insured the Aggies a vic tory. Last week Hixson had one of his better days in his career against Texas. Last year the Aggies stopped him.

The number one thing the Mustangs have is Chuck Hixson, their pass-minded senior quarter back, who has his name at the top of every statistical passing list in the SWC record book ex cept the miscellaneous record of longest pass completion and the negative records involving inter down. His primary receivers are sophomore Raymond Mapps, who ranks second in the conference, and Gary Hammond, who is third. Hammond has been in jured recently but still has rushed for 475 yards with more than 100 yards twice.

The most immediate benefi ciaries of St. Mary’s slowing of the Longhorn stampede — Texas hasn’t lost a TCSL game since 1967 — were the Trinity Tigers, who took advantage of the situ ation to slip by stubborn Rice in Houston, 3 to 2, and moved to the top of the TCSL standings. Trinity, 7-1, has 14 League points to Texas’ 13, based on two points for a win and one for a tie. In other League games Hous ton beat Texas Tech 4 to 3, and TCU downed Stephen F. Austin 5 to 1. Midwestern lost to non- League member North Texas State 6 to 2. St. Mary’s, 5-1-1, and Houston, 5-2-1, are in third place in the League, Texas A&M, 4-2-1, is in fourth place, and all of them will be doing a lot of “what if” think ing this week, most of it de pending upon what happens Sat urday in San Antonio when Trin ity tries to figure out a way to get by the Longhorns on the Tigers’ E.

Mosley carried the ball for 152 yards for the Picadors, while Pat Herring carried for 95 yards for A&M. Joe Barnes took Bill Nutt’s first punt at the Tech 15 and ran it all the way to break Donnie Anderson’s record of 83 yards when he was a freshman. Don Grimes’ kick for the extra point was good, and Tech led 7-0 with 11:29 left in the first quarter. When Nutt punted into the end zone, the Picadors set up at their own 20. John Garner went off the left side for 41 yards to the Aggie 11 on the third. On the next snap, Mosley carried into the end zone. Grimes’ PAT put the Picadors ahead, 14-0. The Fish then went 77 yards to get on the scoreboard. Herring took a handoff at four and was stopped at the two, but he slid off and fought into the end zone for his fourth score of the year. Jeff Pollicoff kicked his third conversion of the season, making the score 14-7. Brian Bernwager picked off a Rigsby aerial, stop ping any hopes of a Fish drive at the Aggie 48. A little later Mosley carried twice from the 18, once for 13 and then scored from the five. The kick for extra point was no good, and Tech led 20-7. Following another Bill Nutt punt, Tech made a first down on a Fish penalty, but Marc Green intercepted a Carmichael pass at midfield. Gary Smith scored from inches away following a nine yard gain by the powerful Herring. Pollicoff put the Fish back in the game with another point, 20-14. Randy Olson intercepted at the Aggie 43 for Tech to set up their next score as Mosley visited the end zone for the third time of the night. Grimes kicked his ‘third conversion, and Tech stretched its lead to 27-14 in the third quarter. The Fish set up at their own 20 following a kickoff into the end zone. Two plays netted two yards, and then Trimmier drop ped back to pass. He found Roger Gaskamp open, and the Brenham tight end went 78 yards for the touchdown. With Pollicoff’s point after, the score was 27-21. On the first play from scrim mage, Green intercepted at the Fish 5 yard line, but it only delayed Tech’s next points. The Fish could move the ball, and Wallace returned Nutt’s punt to the Aggie 44. A face mask pen alty put the ball on A&M’s 30. Barnes was free and headed for the goal line, but Green further delayed the score by stopping him at the 5. Barnes exploded into the end zone on the next play. With the extra point kick by Grimes, the score was increased to 34-21. Dennis McCracken recovered a Fish fumble at the A&M 36 after the kickoff. Mosley ran for one before a pass interference penalty gave Tech a first down at the Aggie four. Mosley went in for his fourth touchdown on a one yard run and Grimes made it 41-21. Charles Billingsley then recov ered a Mosley fumble at the five, but on the next play, Rigsby was trapped for a safety, and Tech increased the lead to the final score of 43-21.

How much can one company do to clean up the environment? Until the problems of pollution are under control—until its effects are reversed—no company can ever be doing “enough." What follows is a listing of things General Electric is doing to ease environmental problems. Some are new. Some are as old as twenty-five years. Should we be doing more? Yes, of course. Every company should. These are only a few of the more important ones. But every day sees us take more steps in many more directions. ► General Electric is working toward a process that will use bacteria to convert garbage into a high-protein food for cattle. One possible answer to the mounting garbage problem. ► Modern, pollution-free mass transit from General Electric is carrying more and more commuters into cities without their cars. ► GE pioneered the development of nuclear power plants. A nuclear plant makes electricity without making smoke. While there is still the problem of thermal effects, it's being tackled on a site-by-site basis and can be solved. But for now, increasing demands for power can be met without an increasing output of air pollution. ► GE has developed a waste- treatment unit to significantly reduce the water pollution from ships and boats. ► We have been chosen by the federal government to solve the problem of jet-engine noise for the aviation industry. Our present jet is already quieter than those on the passenger planes of the Sixties, and yet it's nearly three times as powerful. ► GE designed and built an undersea habitat called “Tektite." Several teams of scientists have lived in the habitat while studying coral- reef ecology and ocean pollution. ► We're designing an earth-resources satellite which will be used for a worldwide survey of the oceans. A first step toward the ultimate control of water pollution. ► Our newest jet airplane engine, for the DC-10, is designed to be smoke-free. Of course, there's more to jet exhaust than just smoke. And our goal is to one day make them run totally clean. ► General Electric makes high- temperature vortex incinerators for the complete combustion of many types of solid waste. Complete combustion drastically reduces the amount of leftover ash, as well as virtually eliminating air pollutants. The problems of the environ ment are many. And some of the solutions will be difficult and costly. But, as you can see, we're working on them. Why are we running this ad? We're running this ad, and others like it, to tell you the things General Electric is doing about the problems of man and his environment today. The problems concern us because they concern you. We're a business and you are potential customers and employees. But there's another, more important reason. These problems will affect the future of this country and this planet. We have a stake in that future. As businessmen. And, simply, as people. We invite your comments. Please write to General Electric, 570 Lexington Ave., New York, N.Y. 10022.
