Page 6 College Station, Texas These days, it takes a little cour age to wear this button, and yet what's so great about cop-outs? They let other people do the work. If they have families, they let other people take care of them. Cop-outs scoff at things like finan cial security. Responsible men and women can’t afford that luxury. That’s why Provident Mutual designs life insurance programs specifically for college people. Because the ear lier you start, the less it costs, and the closer you’ll be to financial security. So stop by our office today. Or give us a call, and let’s talk about all this. In the meantime, here’s a thought to take with you. In trouble . . . whoever yells for a cop-out? GORDON RICHARDSON (713) 567-3165 PROVIDENT MUTUALBMH LIFE Tuesday, November 10, 1970 THE BATTALION Offenses falter as SMU wins on last-second FG By CLIFFORD BROYLES Battalion Sports Editor Saturday was not a day for offensive units in the Cotton Bowl. There were only 9 points scored in the game, and when you compare that to a couple of west coast games, USC-Wash- ington and Oregon-Air Force, there wasn’t any. In the US C-Washington tilt there were 103 points scored and Oregon outscored Air Force 46- 35 in a game which had 1,022 yards gained offensively. In fact, if it hadn’t been for two pass interference calls on each drive, the only score would have been the last one, the one Chipper Johnson made on a 38- yard field goal with two seconds remaining. It must have been thrilling for the TV audience to see the climatic finish because there wasn’t enough otherwise to keep one interested. The Aggies had their worst offensive day of the year, despite the fact the defense had one of its brighter moments, intercept ing five SMU passes and hold ing them in check except for Gary Hammond. Hammond, who probably is the best running back in the South west Conference, with the pos sible exception of Steve Worster, used his elusive style of running to* gain 190 yards on 36 carries. He had to leave the game several times after being shaken up. That was a tribute to the hard hitting on both sides as several Aggies and Mustangs felt the sting of hard hitting. One who didn’t was SMU’s passing whiz Chuck Hixson who missed his first game because of OF NEW HAVEN/A GENTLEMAN’S SHIRT 1 |iuii§tnrnc6 umbereiitp men’* toear *5*3} 32ft, University Drive 718/846-2706 k \ College Station, Texas 77840 an injury. Hixson watched the game from the sidelines in his number 10 jersey and a pair of slacks because of a knee injury that had not completely healed from the Texas game last week. Hammond himself has not been at full speed from a leg injury until this week. The last time he was completely healthy he gained more than 100 yards against Northwestern and the game before that more than 100 against New Mexico State. A&M safety David Hoot had an outstanding day as the junior from Houston intercepted three Gary Carter passes and knocked down several others. Hoot now has passed teammate Dave Elmendorf and Bruce Bushong of Texas Tech in the race for the lead in interceptions with six. Penalties were a pain in the side of both teams as SMU drew flags 14 times for 124 yards and the Aggies eight times for 85. The game was a turnabout of the past few weeks for A&M, as they turned the ball over only once on a first quarter fumble while taking the ball from SMU five times on interceptions. But the SMU defense held the Aggies to a season low of 130 yards total offense with 69 yards passing, the lowest total gained in that category. The Aggies did get improved pass blocking as Lex James was dropped twice and Joe Mac King once for losses while passing, but there still was enough pressure for the pair to have their worst throwing games. James com pleted only three of nine for 26 yards and King hit three of 11 for 35 yards. Both James and King suffered elbow injuries in the game and their status will not be known until later this week. The Aggie offense went with out a first down for over three periods, with an 18 yard pass from James to Johnny Gardner with 12 minutes to go in the first quarter the third and last A&M first down until the Mustangs were guilty of a pass interfer ence call with about 10 minutes left in the game. That first down sparked the Aggies to their only drive of the game that ended in a 34 yard field goal by Pat McDermott, his sixth of the year. King played the entire second half except for one play when he was knocked dizzy. James took over for that play but was dropped for a loss and reinjured his elbow. Following the penalty King, who was the Aggies’ leading rusher with 32 yards, ran a sweep end for 11 yards. Another pass interference pen alty aided the drive on third down, and then a holding pen alty moved the ball to the 14 where Steve Burks moved to the eight. The SMU defense tightened and McDermott kicked the equal izing field goal. Hammond then took command as the Mustangs seemed con tent to take their time and get the field goal rather than move it in for the touchdown. Hammond carried the ball for six straight times and moved the ball from the 13 to 38. The Mustang drive continued down the field With the clock ticking off the final five minutes that showed when McDermott toed the pigskin from 34 yards out. Johnson came in with seven seconds left and the score tied, and booted the ball through the uprights of the Cotton Bowl, sending the Mustangs fans into a frenzy. Colts nip Packers MILWAUKEE <A>)—J o h n n y Unitas’ arm and Jim O’Brien’s foot paced the Baltimore Colts to a 13-10 victory over the Green Bay Packers Monday night in a nationally televised National Football League game. O’Brien kicked two field goals and Unitas directed the attack that gave Baltimore a 7-1 record. Green Bay is now 4-4. You know him, but have you ever been to his house? Sure, you got through Shakespeare in class. You can even quote lines from his plays. But have you ever walked down the streets where he walked ? Like Henley Street where he was born. Or visited Hall’s Croft, the home of his daughter Susanna? Or some of the other homes he held dear? Because only then can you truly understand the man and his times. There’s so much more you can learn about history simply by being where it happened. r i L 1 BRITISH TOURIST AUTHORITY I Box923,Dept.CN-l,N.Y.,N.Y. 10019 I Send me your free booklet: Britain for Young People.
