Page 4 College Station, Texas Friday, December 10, 1971 THE BATTAUOl Important basketball weekend scheduled for A&ft; By JOHN CURYLO Battalion Sports Editor The Aggies will get an idea of where it’s at in basketball when they travel to Los Angeles for a battle with the UCLA Bruins Saturday night. A&M returns home for a Tuesday night game with Southwest Texas State in G. Rollie White Coliseum. Coach Shelby Metcalf will start the quintet of 6-2 Mario Brown, 6-4 Wayne Howard, 6-3 Bob Gobin, 6-7 Jeff Overhouse and 6-8 Rick Duplantis. Also ex pected to log playing time are 6-6 Randy Knowles, 6-1 Charlie Jenkins and 5-11 Bobby McKey. UCLA is 2-0, having beaten The Citadel, 105-49, and Iowa, 106-72. A&M is 2-1 with wins over Texas Wesleyan and North western Louisiana State and a 90-79 loss to Tulsa. can continue to improve, we’ll be ready for conference.” Coach John Wooden is expected to go with Bill Walton at center, Larry Farmer-and Keith Wilkes at the forwards and Henry Bibby at one guard spot, with either Greg Lee or Tommy Curtis as the other guard. Bibby has scored 58 points this season, and going into Friday night’s game with Iowa State, he has hit on 22 consecutive free throws. “The attitude and hustle is still excellent,” Metcalf said. “The team is developing well. If we It will be important for the Aggies to learn from the UCLA game. With A&M still learning the new run-and-shoot type of fense and the pressing defense, the Bruins should be a good test of how well they can perform under pressure from the best. The outcome of the game is not as vital as what the Aggies can gain in experience and execution. Howard leads A&M in scoring with 52 points. Overhouse is next with 50, followed by Knowles, 42, Brown, 38, and McKey and Duplantis, 17 each. Overhouse is the top rebounder, having hauled in 30 caroms. Knowles is next with 21, followed by Brad Pauley with 19 and Bobby Threadgill with 13. McKey leads the Aggies in assists with 20. As a team, A&M has hit 44% of its shots from the field and 65% from the free throw line. They are averaging 53.3 rebounds per game, against 44.3 for the opposition. After the 8 o’clock game with Southwest Texas Tuesday night, the Aggies will be in the Lobo Invitational in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Dec. 22-23. Dec. 27-28, they will be in the Blue bonnet Classic in Houston’s Hof- heinz Pavilion. The Presidential Classic in Washington, D. C., fol lows on Jan. 7-8. The last pre conference game is with Trinity here Jan. 13, with league action starting here on Jan. 15 against Southern Methodist. Aggie Fish host Wharton in prelim contest Tuesday By BILL HENRY Assistant Sports Editor Wharton Junior College will invade G. Rollie White Coliseum Tuesday, Dec. 14, in a prelimi nary match with the Texas A&M Fish at 5:45 p.m. This game will be followed by varsity action against Southwest Texas State University. The Fish will bring a 1-1 record into the contest in hopes of gain ing another dose of confidence with the homecourt advantage. In two previous games, the Fish have changed drastically in their style of play. Against San Antonio College they looked flat, slow and did not play very smart basketball. SMU, however, proved that there is another side of the tree-top tall Fish basket ball team. A&M hustled, played well and used their heads. This new style of play enabled the Fish to embarrass a good SMU team, 100-82. Mike Floyd has been the spark plug of the quintet, hitting for 49 points and adding 10 rebounds. It is his floor leadership that has shown brilliantly in two games. Humble’s Kern Tips Trophy awarded to Gary Hammond Gary Hammond, Southern Methodist University’s versatile back, was named winner of the Fourth Annual Kern Tips Memo rial Award in Dallas Wednesday. The trophy, named for the late Southwest Conference radio broadcaster Kern Tips, is given each year by Humble Oil & Re fining Company to the outstand ing senior football player in the SWC as selected by a panel of 120 people. Hammond played a different offensive position each of his three varsity years. As a sopho more he earned all-SWC honors at split end. He repeated his all- SWC honors in 1970 as a tailback and this season he returned to quarterback, a position which brought him all-state and All- America honors as a schoolboy at Port Arthur Jefferson High School. Randall Meyer, Vice President and member of the Board of Di rectors of Humble, made the presentation, noting that academ ic standing, good sportsmanship and high moral character, in addition to football prowess, were considered by the panel in making the decision. Hammond is a 3.0 business management major at SMU. Gary Hammond was named SWC Sophomore of the Year in 1969, leading the league in pass receptions. In 1970, he became the tenth player in conference to earn all-SWC honors at two dif ferent positions. The Tips winner is the son of Mr. and Mrs. John E. Hammond of Port Arthur. A younger brother, Mark, is on the SMU freshman team. Other nominees for the 1971 award were Steve Luebbehusen, Texas A&M; Jim Bertelson, Tex as; Ron Evans, Baylor; Steve Judy, Texas Christian; Larry Molinare, Texas Tech; Jack Mor ris, Arkansas; and Stable Vin cent, Rice. The University of Houston is not eligible for the award until it competes for the conference football title. Previous Kern Tips winners were Chris Gilbert, Texas back; Buster Adami, Texas A&M line backer; and Bill Burnett, Arkan sas tailback. Cedric Joseph is beginning to live up to his All-American bill ing after the SMU game. Joseph grabbed 26 rebounds while scor ing 21 points and completely dominated the inside. Against the outclassed San Antonio club, his performance was less than su perior, grabbing only 12 rebounds and scoring 17 points. Joseph is looked on for greatness in his career at A&M and, barring any freak accidents, stardom is des tined for the 6-8, 220 pound post man from Fort Worth Arlington Heights. Dale Donaldson, one of Joseph’s high school teammates, has also shown promise at times at his guard spot with his soft touch from the corner. With some de fensive skills, Donaldson could prove to be a big asset to the A&M varsity next season. He has scored 28 points and grabbed 10 caroms in action so far. Jerry Mercer of Houston Cy- press-Fairbanks has not come around as yet but when he can get accustomed to the A&M style of play, he will give opposing postmen a lot of problems. With Mercer, 6-9, and Joseph under neath, A&M could have one of the greatest insides in history. This game will be the final action for both the varsity and freshmen here until January 13th when the varsity takes on Trinity and the Fish host Blinn Junior College.

"It’ll be 'found gold’ for her!” And she smiled as she bustled about the shop. Even then, as a child, I knew that Grandma was the "found gold” for all who knew her — always giving more than was expected, cheer fully looking for ways to gladden those whose lives touched hers. Today I know that Grandma’s strength was of the spirit. The teachings of her church gave purpose to her life. She lived her creed joyously, demonstrating vividly for all around ’ r the vitality and richness of the Christian life. Today, in a world that sometimes seems dark with selfishness and greed, each of us needs to realize and utilize the spiritual resources of his church as a necessity of life.
