Page 4 College Station, Texas Friday, September 17, 1971 THE BATTALION In Baton Rouge tomorrow night Aggies aim for second in a row against LSU By JOHN CURYLO Battalion Sports Editor It is said that lightning doesn’t strike the same place twice, but the Texas Aggies will try to dis prove that theory when they meet the LSU Tigers in Baton Rouge tomorrow night. The Bayou Bengals are still mad about last year’s 20-18 de feat, which turned out to be the only loss they suffered in regular season besides the 3-0 battle with Notre Dame. Coach Gene Stallings will go with the same lineup he used in A&M’s opening game victory over Wichita State. The offense finished with 433 yards total of fense, and the defense was cred ited with three pass interceptions and one fumble recovery. Lex James gets the call once again at quarterback, after com pleting six of 12 passes for 85 yards against the Shockers. His capable replacement in the open er was Tim Trimmier, but Mark Green may be ready for action after his foot injury. Doug Neill scored two touch downs last week, carrying five times for 48 yards. However, since the senior fullback suffered a hip pointer in the game Marc Black might log a lot of playing time. Steve Burks ran seven times for 36 yards, and he will begin at tailback. His substitute is Cliff Thomas, who got 34 yards in 10 tries. Robert Murski will start at split end, but he is followed close ly by Ricky Spencer, who caught three aerials for 49 yards Satur day. Joey Herr is the wingback again, after scoring a touchdown on four receptions for 73 yards. His backup man is Hugh McEl- roy, whose 79 yard touchdown game the Aggies their-first win over LSU since 1956 last year. John Gardner is expected to play wide receiver also. Homer May holds down the tight end spot, after catching a seven yard pass against Wichita. He was interfered with in the end zone on one play though, and SWC in full swing Saturday By BILL HENRY This Saturday marks the first full weekend of Southwest Con ference football action. Only Texas Tech, Texas A&M, Rice and Arkansas have played al ready. \ Heading the list of SWC ac tion will be the return match of Texas vs. UCLA. Only this year the battle will be held in Los Tom’s Levi’s Pant Shop COME SEE US! Levi's for Gals Levi’s for Guys 800 Villa Maria Angeles. As most fans remem ber, Texas sneaked by the Bruins in 1970, 20-17, on a 45-yard pass from Eddie Phillips to Cotton Speyrer with 12 seconds left. The TD gave the Horns its 24th con secutive win. This game will be televised nationally beginning at 4 p.m. CDT. Rice will host perennial power house Southern California at 7:30 p.m. USC looked sloppy in losing its number four rating to Ala bama, 17-10, last Friday. Rice looked surprisingly tough against Houston University in a losing effort, 23-21. Southern Methodist will travel to Norman, Oklahoma to go at it with the Sooners in a 1:30 p.m. game. The Mustangs will be quarterbacked by Gary Ham mond who will be trying out his third position at that school. He A&M water polo wins over Texas The Texas A&M Water Polo Club defeated The University of Texas at Austin in the first game of the season last night in Downs Natatorium with a score of 29-16. Top-notch performances were turned in by Coach Dennis Fos- dick’s pair of All-American water polo players from San Mateo Junior College in California. Les Hamman and Fred Meyers, also co-captains of the water polo team, threw the ball for nine and seven scores, respectively. “The reason we did so well,” said Fosdick, “is that we played an outstanding defensive game and were able to control the ball excellently in the offense. Our goalies were also able to block many Longhorn attempts.” Others scoring for the Aggie team were Steve Prentice, 6; Eric Wolff, 2; Mike Hicks, Martin Lit- teken, Doug Carson, Sandy Mc Pherson, and Barry Streusand, 1.

Mitch Robertson will spell the highly rated junior at tight end. The offensive line, said to be vastly improved over last year, welcomes the return of Ralph Sacra, who missed Wichita with a leg injury. The 241 pounder will start at right tackle. Num ber two at that position is Ted Smith. Buster Callaway mans the other tackle slot, ahead of Marshall Herklotz. Leonard Forey and Todd Chris topher start at the guard posi tions, backed up by Mike Park and Butch Kamps. Robert Gera- simowicz will start at center, with Skip Kuehn close behind. Defensively, Max Bird, Boice Best, Van Odom, James Dubcak, and Kent Finley make up the front five. Their replacements are Mike Sweat, who played freshman football at LSU, Bud Trammell, Bill Wiebold, and Dan Peoples. The linebackers are Grady Hoermann and Steve Luebbehu- sen, with Mike Lord filling in. This trio is sound, and their per formance will key the outcome. Lord played his high school foot ball in Baton Rouge, and he had an outstanding game against LSU last year. Bland Smith and Ed Ebrom, a pair of seasoned veterans, are the cornerbacks, and they will have their hands full with the speedy Tiger receivers. Chris Johnson and Lee Hitt are expected to fill in here. Hitt plays the safety positions, too. David Hoot will be counted on for his usual fine game at strong safety, while Brad Dusek is at free safety. Dusek intercepted a pass and recovered a fumble, which led to the first two Aggie touchdowns. Larry Ellis, a walk- on who was impressive against Wichita, plays both safety posi tions. The kicking game is intact, with Robertson and Herr punt ing, Mike Bellar kicking off, and Pat McDermott and Roberto Payan doing the place kicking. The Aggies need to excel at every phase of the game tomor row night, and if they do, light ning will strike the 67,510 seat Tiger Den for the second year in a row.
