THE BATTALION
Ags and Mustangs continue usual competitive rivalry
With upsets in mind last week,
the Texas Aggies and the SMU
Mustangs square off tomorrow
afternoon in Kyle Field in a game
that has definite bearing on the
outcome of the conference race.
The opposing coaches, Gene
Stallings and Hayden Fry, are
the only two in the Southwest
Conference to have broken the
Arkansas-Texas domination of
the league crown in the past few
years.
The series between the two
schools has been an exciting one
in recent seasons, and this con
test promises to be just as inter
esting.
In 1966, SMU was the confer
ence champ, and they downed the
Aggies 21-14 in the Cotton Bowl
on the way to that title. The fol
lowing season, the two teams met
in a televised game at the begin
ning of the campaign, with the
Mustangs slipping by, 20-17. It
was A&M’s only conference loss,
as they went on to win it all.
Dallas was the site again in
1968, with Edd Hargett’s passing
producing 23 points, but Mike
Richardson’s running got SMU
36. Kyle Field saw the Aggies
rise to the occasion in 1969, shut
ting down a dangerous Mustang
passing attack 20-10.
Last year, it was a last-second
field goal that gave SMU a 6-3
win. Gary Hammond’s excellent
performance at tailback failed to
produce a touchdown, and Joe
Mac King came off the bench to
spark a drive that was stopped
short.
The two are back this season,
both as starting quarterbacks of
teams that started off slowly, but
are coming into their own now.
A&M is fresh from its 17-9 upset
of Arkansas, while SMU was
nipped in the fourth quarter by
Texas, 22-18.
In the backfield with King will
be fullback Doug Neill and tail
back Mark Green. Neill leads the
team in rushing, and Green is
just beginning to stand out at
running back. He scored two
touchdowns against the Razor-
backs, gaining 102 yards in 27
carries.
Marc Black will substitute for
Neill, and Hugh McElroy, the
flashy return specialist, plays be
hind Green. Clifford Thomas, in
jured early in the season, is prac
ticing and may see limited action
tomorrow.
Receivers are tight end Homer
May, split end Robert Murski and
wingback Joey Herr. May has a
hurt wrist, and Herr reinjured
his shoulder, so Mitch Robertson,
the Aggie punter, and Ricky
Spencer should get to play also.
Billy Jo Polasek fits into the pic
ture as the number two split end.
The offensive line, which did a
superb job against the Hogs, will
have its hands full with the Mus
tangs. Ready to face the chal
lenge are tackles Ralph Sacra
and Buster Callaway, guards
Leonard Forey and Todd Christo
pher and center Skip Kuehn.
Depending on the physical con
dition of Robert Gerasimowicz,
who plays center and guard,
Kuehn may play tackle, and Ted
Smith will fill in at both spots.
Mike Park will log considerable
time replacing both guards.
Defensively, the Aggies will be
challenged by the running of
Hammond and the SMU offense.
Having held Arkansas to 60 yards
rushing, the unit has another
tough test this week.
At the ends will be Max Bird
and Mike Lord, but Kent Finley
plays a lot on passing situations,
when Lord becomes a third line
backer for added coverage. Van
Odom and Boice Best start at the
tackles, one of the brightest po
sitions on a shining defensive
crew. James Dubcak is the back
up man on both sides. Middle
guard Bill Wiebold is spelled by
Mike Bruton.
Linebackers Grady Hoermann
and Steve Luebbehusen have had
outstanding games all season, and
the pair has been the key to the
low rushing totals opponents have
compiled. Dennis Carruth is a
substitute here.
The secondary, responsible for
the winning turnovers against
Arkansas, is ready to go again,
with Bland Smith and Lee Hitt
lining up at the corners and Da
vid Hoot and Brad Dusek at the
safeties. Ed Ebrom and Larry
Ellis also play cornerback
Mike Bellar fills in at either’^
ty, in addition to kicking o fff 0 ,
the Aggies.
Pat McDermott, tied for tk (
A&M scoring lead with Greet,
has 18 points this year. He an(
Roberto Payan will be on hatj
for field goal and extra po® Vol.
duty.
A crowd of a little over 1.,,
is expected for the game. Ail

Five teams still in race for SWC championship
By BILL HENRY
Assistant Sports Editor
For the first time since 1967,
the Southwest Conference foot
ball championship will involve a
real race. Only Rice, Baylor and
Texas Tech have no mathemati
cal chance at this year’s title. Ar
kansas is still the odds on favor
ite but after last week’s upset to
A&M, the ground looks pretty
shaky and if the Razorbacks lose
again, it’s all over for them.
Arkansas will try to return to
the winner’s circle when it travels
to Houston to challenge the Rice
Owls in an afternoon contest. A
capacity of 72,000 fans are ex
pected to swarm Rice Stadium
hoping to see another also-ran
pull off an upset of Arkansas.
Arkansas, on the other hand,
must stay up for the rest of its
games in hopes of winning the
conference, the first since 1965.
Joe Ferguson cannot be blamed
for the loss last weekend as he
played almost flawlessly, throw
ing 51 times and completing 31
for 345 yards. Rice, like A&M, is
billed as a tough defensive unit
ranking high in the conference
stats. The offense, however, is
another story altogether. New
head mentor Ray Peterson has
installed a pro-style attack pat
terned after his last coaching job
at Florida State. The plan has
not had the best of results, since
a devastating triggerman is not
included on the Owl squad. Ar
kansas is not expected to lose its
composure and the likelihood of
another upset is slim but so have
the games in which the Razor-
backs were pitted against Tulsa
and A&M.
The Texas Longhorns try to
keep their conference hopes alive
when they host the Baylor Bears
in renovated Memorial Stadium at
2 p.m. Baylor, as many of the
Longhorn rooters remember, al
most pulled off a super-upset of
the Horns in Waco last season.
The final score was 21-7 but the
Bears had one touchdown called
back, and the Steers took one
across late in the final period.
Texas aides feel top quarterback
Eddie Phillips will be ready after
a four week vacation due to a toe
and hamstring injury. Donnie
Wigginton has done an admirable
job at the quarterback slot but
many feel he is no Phillips. Even
if Arkansas does not lose another
game, Texas could find itself in
a bowl game of some sort if no
more losses are added to its final
mark. Baylor has had its trouble
this season with the lack of scor
ing punch and a hot and cold de
fensive unit. If the defense is hot,
as SMU’s was last weekend, the
Horns could be in for another
long afternoon, as the Baylor of
fense is not much different than
the Mustangs.
The most disappointing team in
the SWC, Texas Tech, journeys
to Amon Carter Stadium for a
contest with the fired-up Horned
Frogs of TCU in an afternoon
affair. The death of Coach Jim
Pittman has caused grief for the
TCU players and family, with the
void to be felt by all people in
volved in the game. The players
have dedicated the remainder of
the season to the late Pittman. A
victory here and the following
three games give the Frogs the
longshot edge on title contention,
having lost only one league en
counter, that to Arkansas. Steve
Judy, ace quarterback for the
Frogs, played a superb game last
Saturday night against Baylor to
pull from behind twice and win
the contest, 34-27. Judy, another
hot and cold SWC performer,
feels he has got his game togeth
er and is confident about the rest
of the season. Tech has had its
problems, though mostly offen
sive. The defense has lacked sup
porting power when in clutch po-
Undefeated teams lead all four classes
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Port Arthur Jefferson, Silsbee,
Eastland and Sonora held the
leads once again over their divi
sions this week in The Associ
ated Press schoolboy football
poll.
Jefferson clutched the Class
AAAA top spot with nine first
place votes ahead of runnerup
Wichita Falls. Dallas Carter
moved to third and Arlington was
fourth.
Port Arthur Lincoln moved up
from seventh to fifth in time for
its city showdown with Jefferson
this weekend.
The biggest shocker last week
was third ranked Galveston Ball’s
21-10 loss to unranked Baytown
Sterling.
Silsbee and Gregory-Portland
remained 1-2 in Class AAA. En
nis, No. 6, dropped from the list
after being tied 6-6 by Wilmer-
Hutchins. Tidehaven entered the
top 10 as No. 10 team in AAA.
Eastland retained its lead in
Class AA and Sonora remained
on top in Class A.
Ninth-ranked Woodsboro and
10th rated Diboll lost Class AA
and dropped from the top 10.
Their replacements were No. 9
Austin Westlake and No. 10
Bowie.
In Class A, Forney tumbled
from the top 10 after losing 12-10
to rugged Crowley, ranked No. 6
this week. Crowley has outscored
the opposition 222-13 through
eight straight victories this sea
son.
Crowley whipped five straight
Class AA foes and has not yield
ed more than two consecutive
first downs all season. Forney
scored the first touchdown of
the season against Crowley last
week. Crowley picked up two
first place votes in this week’s
poll.

SMU a few weeks ago. Charlie
Napper, who was picked by some
before the season as the best
quarterback in the league, has
not been able to lead the team.
Joe Barnes and Jimmy Carmi
chael are great newcomers, but
experience is the name of the
game in this part of the country.
No one really knows what the
problem is at Texas Tech, but for
a team that received votes of con
fidence from writers around the
league as the team to beat, things
look somewhat flustered.

DREAMS ARE THE DAWN
QF TOMORROW
Yet
And like the first light of a new day they seem distant, unreal,
out of our dreams we often fashion tomorrow.
The dreams of the daylight hours are not in the subconscious.
Rather they project our hopes on a screen of reality. They grow into
goals and aims and ambitions.
Whether tomorrow will fulfill those dreams depends on certain values
which must be acquired today. Ideals, standards, moral principles,
religious faith — these inspire dreams worth dreaming, and help us to
translate them to reality.
Never worry about your daughter's daydreaming. Be concerned
about her opportunities for spiritual development. The Church shares that
concern. It can help you do something constructive about it.
