THE BATTi
Improved Aggies are still hurt by key injuries
By JOHN CURYLO
Battalion Sports Editor
Coach Gene Stallings noted im
provement in the Aggies in the
TCU game, but he told his weekly
news conference that injuries
would be a problem in the prepa
rations for the visit of the Bay
lor Bears to Kyle Field Saturday
afternoon.
“Our offensive line play was
better,” he said, “but Todd Chris
topher only played ten plays be
fore he got hurt. At that time,
he had nine plusses and just one
minus, by our grading system.
After the game, Robert Gerasi-
mowicz almost couldn’t take his
shoe off. That’s two pretty good
players of the five starters in
the line.”
Commenting on some of the
changes he made for the game,
Stallings admitted that the of
fense was helped. Joe Mac King
played quarterback, Hugh McEl-
roy tailback, and two tight ends
were used, with Mitch Robertson
starting.
“I was pleased with the effort
of Joe,” the coach said, “except
for just three bad passes, which
were intercepted. Hugh did a
pretty good job at tailback. It’s
just a matter of how long he can
play where.”
Stallings announced that Rob
ertson received one of two stars
given out by the coaching staff
this week. Robertson was cited
for good blocking, his excellent
pass receiving, and for getting
off four punts under pressure.
Charlie Murphy, a sophomore
from Monahans won the other
one for making a tackle on the
eight yard line on a kickoff.
Several players, including
Grady Hoermann and David Hoot,
earned stars, but lost them.
“Grady had a lot of tackles,”
Stallings explained, “but he also
had a pass interference penalty
and a personal foul called against
him. David played a fine game,
but he made several errors on the
goal line that hurt us.”
Seven players who started the
first game for the Aggies were
discussed in regard to injuries.
Joey Herr, who cracked a collar
bone in the LSU game, is prac
ticing and may start Saturday.
Steve Burks, hurt against Texas
Tech, can practice, but his run
ning is still hampered.
Christopher and Gerasimowicz
both are listed as doubtful this
week. There is a possibility that
defensive end Kent Finley, an
other victim of a knee injury
against the Horned Frogs, may
not see action against Baylor.
“I don’t think Lex James will
be well enough to play,” Stallings
reported, referring to his ailing
quarterback. “Also, Hugh McEl-
roy is sore and battered from the
beating he took against TCU. He
hasn’t practiced yet this week,
but he’ll probably be ready by
Saturday.”
In addition to these, Cliff
Thomas, who sprained a knee in
the Nebraska game, will be work
ing out this week. Fullback Doug
Robbins, who made several good
runs against TCU before being
hurt, is still doubtful. Bruce Best
and Bud Trammell still have their
injured knees in casts and are
out indefinitely.
Stallings said that the offen
sive backfield was questionable as
to personnel. The physical con
dition of James, Burks, and

Associated Press Sports Writer
NEW YORK (A>>—“It’s not fair
to single any individual out ... I
got my interceptions because the
quarterback threw the ball to
me,” said Washington linebacker
Jack Pardee, whose three pass
thefts gained him honors Tues
day as the National Football
League Defensive Player of the
Week.
Pardee’s outstanding perform
ance led an airtight defensive
unit that paved the way to the
unbeaten Redskins’ 20-0 victory
over the St. Louis Cardinals Sun
day, their fifth in a row.
The 14-year veteran, a 6-foot-
2, 225-pounder from Texas A&M,
topped New Orleans cornerback
Delles Howell and Baltimore line
backer Ted Hendricks for The
Associated Press award.
His Washington teammates
awarded him a game ball for the
third time this season. And on
Monday he got something better
—a greeting from President Nix
on.
Pardee and his wife, Phyllis,

and their children, along with
linebacker Maxie Baughan and
center George Burman and their
families, appeared at the White
House for a special tour of the
executive mansion and ended up
in a brief meeting and picture
taking session with the President.
Pardee insisted he shouldn’t be
singled out for his work against
St. Louis, “not when cornerbacks
Mike Bass and Pat Fischer shut
out John Gilliam, Mel Grey and
Jackie Smith” of the Cards. “And
when the line is putting on a good
rush, the linebackers can drop
and try for the interception.”
His three thefts were his best
single-game showing as a pro,
raising his total for the year to
five, one less than his all-time
high in 1967 when he was with
the Los Angeles Rams. The
’Skins now have 13 interceptions,
only two below their entire 1970
total.
Pardee was among the raft of
Rams who followed their coach,
George Allen, to Washington this
year. Allen, carefully molding a
defensive unit which, because of
its high average age, has been
dubbed the “Over-the-hill Gang,”
has sent the Skins off to their
best start since 1940.
Also earning nominations were
Willie Lanier of Kansas City, who
made nine unassisted tackles and
five assists in the Chiefs’ 38-16
victory over the Pittsburgh Steel-
ers, and Jack Gehrke of Denver,
who recovered a pair of fumbled
punts inside the San Diego 10-
yard line as the Broncos edged
the Chargers.
Thomas would change the pic
ture, but that Doug Neill is still
in solid at fullback.
With the Aggies working out
at 3:30 p.m. three days a week,
the question was brought up con
cerning King. A vet student,
much of his afternoon time is
taken up by the heavy academic
load required.
“Last week and this week, he’s
gotten out early and gone back
to finish up some other time,”
Stallings explained. “He’s at the
point now where he’s got some
labs that are practical stuff. He
can do that other times during
the day. We’re not asking him
to cut a class to be on time for
practice, but at the same time, we
won’t change our practice times
for one player. Everybody else
is here to get an education too.”
Baylor had an open date last
week, and Stallings said that this
would help the Bears, since Coach
Bill Beall has changed to the
Wishbone offense. Plagued with
injuries, it is expected that some
of their injured players will be
ready by Saturday.
Norton is selected
for Hall of Fame
The late Homer Norton, coach
of the 1939 Texas A&M national
championship football team, will
be inducted into the National
Football Foundation Hall of
Fame here Saturday in pre-game
ceremonies at the A&M-Baylor
game.
Norton coached at Centenary
from 1920-33 and A&M from
1934-47. His Aggie teams won 82,
lost 53 and tied nine.
Wilbur Evans, a member of the
Honors Court of the National
Football Foundation, will make
the pi'esentation to Mr. Norton.
The induction of Norton brings
to six the number of players and
coaches from A&M who now have
been enshrined in the Hall of
Fame. The coaches and years
served include D. X. Bible, 1917-
28; and Matty Bell, 1929-33. The
players are Joel Hunt, 1925-27;
Joe Routt, 1935-37; and John
Kimbrough, 1938-40.
“They’ve got fine speed at their
halfback positions,” Stallings ex
plained. “They were throwing at
the beginning of the year, but
now they run a lot with the Wish
bone. They just started running
it against Arkansas, so we don’t
know how good they are. Also,
they’re awfully physical on de
fense.”
Explaining the contrasting
halves in the game with the
Horned Frogs, he said that A&M
“missed so many tackles the first
half.” Asked about the decision
to kick a field goal in the third
quarter instead of trying to make
a first down and a touchdown,
Stallings said he felt scoring at
all was important.
“The team needed to make
some points,” he said. “Three's
a whole lot better than none. The
momentum of making a field goal
is better than not making it with
fourth and four to go.”
