Intramural director seeks changes
Intramural tennis at A&M has
see n changes this year and will
change in the future, Aggie In
tramural Director Les Palmer
said.
“This year there are two divi
sions, upperclassmen and fresh
men, playing preliminaries in 14
leagues,” Palmer said in a pri
vate interview last week. “Be
cause each meet is worth two
points, we have had several ties
to be broken with extra matches.

of games won would decide who
would advance in a team bracket.
“But we realized that a team
might have a singles player who
won all his matches and doubles
team who lost all theirs,” he ex
plained, “so there was a possibili
ty that someone undefeated might
not get to compete in the team
championships. For that reason
we also have individual singles and
doubles brackets. Since the peo
ple in the individual tournament
won in their league, the best
player out of all those various
leagues should be the best intra
mural player in the university.”
Can outside players compete
for a dorm or another team?
“The rules are that you play
with the unit in which you live,”
Palmer said. “This is the basic
rule. The only problem we run
into at the present time are mili
tary students who are married
and live with their wives, but are
attached to a unit. We have
ruled that they can play with
their unit as long as they are
assigned to it. A civilian is sup
posed to play with his dormi
tory.”
Since Fowler Hall is the cam
pus residence for Aggie col
legiate athletes, it doesn’t have
an intramural program. What
about the men living there who
didn’t make the college team but
want to play in intramurals for
another dorm?
“We allow these people to try
out for collegiate teams,” Palmer
explained, “and give them a time
limit in which they must make
their decision whether they want
to be a candidate for a freshman
or varsity team or whether they
want to continue in intramural
performance.”
Why is there a division between
corps and civilian units in most
Aggie intramurals ?
“We are changing from an all
male, all-military college to a
coed, off-campus, weekend uni
versity. Tradition probably has
something to do with that. In
sports like tennis, track and
swimming we put everybody to
gether because we are seeking
university champions.
What does Palmer think of the
future of intramurals at A&M ?
“I hope the intramurals pro
grams change a great deal. I have
requested from the Board of Di
rectors a new complex, a lighted
area that will have eight lighted
football fields that can be con
verted to four softball diamonds.
“It will be a first-class facility
with first-class lighting and un
derground watering systems.
None of the facilities we play on
now are, in my opinion, adequate
for a university of this type.
“The University of Texas just
built four Laykold-covered light
ed tennis courts for their intra
murals. I have requested 11 light
ed courts immediately, but that’s
only a request.”
“The program we can make is
just a matter of finances, more
or less, and this is where the
students need to help. The money
for intramurals comes from stu
dent service fees.”
“The budget for intramural ad
ministrative salaries at Texas
Tech is about $72,000 annually.
Our budget should be in that
range, but it is only about $34,-
000 this year and I understand
there won’t be much of an in
crease next year.”
“Tech sets aside $1.75 per stu
dent for intramurals with no
questions asked. Our budget is
whatever the budget committee
approves and that’s it. If the
students want a better program,
they are going to have to make
their wishes known.”
Rugby champ to be decided Saturday
For the second year running,
the Rugby Club of A&M is up
for the Northern Division Texas
Rugby Championship.
Last year the Aggies swept
this division, consisting of seven
Sonics coach has theory:
fitness, defense make winner
SEATTLE UP) _ Tom Nisalke,
newly appointed coach of the
Seattle SuperSonics of the Na
tional Basketball Association, has
a three-step theory: Physical fit
ness leads to good defense which
means winning.
“And winning is all I care
about,” Nissalke said Thursday
at a news conference called to
announce he had signed a mul
tiyear contract with Seattle.
Terms of the pact were not an
nounced.
Nissalke, 37, was named Amer
ican Basketball Association Coach
of the Year after leading the Dal
las Chaparrals to a playoff spot
in his first head-coaching job.
Defense was a major factor in
the Dallas rise. The Chaps were
last in defense the previous year
but led the league in defense the
past season. And before defense
there was conditioning.
“I’m a firm believer in physi
cal fitness,” said Nissalke, who
likes to run about 25 miles a
week during the summer.
Dierschke inks
with Aggies
Two outstanding track pros
pects have signed letters of intent
to attend Texas A&M University,
it was announced Thursday by
assistant track coach Ted Nelson.
Sammy Dierschke, two-time
state champion in the 100 and
220dashes from Sealy, is a six-
foot, 2-inch, 185-pounder who was
sought by more than 30 major
colleges.
Dierschke was named to the
high school All-American team
last year as a junior. He has
times of 9.4 in the 100, 21.0 in
the 220, 48.0 in the 440, and has
run a 46.7 mile relay leg.
The other signee is Jack Gra
ham, a 6-2, 196-pounder from
Albuquerque, N. M. He was the
state champion in the javelin and
has thrown 245 feet.

“There’s no reason if a play
er wants to why he can’t play
until he’s 38 or 40.
Nissalke, who served as an
assistant to Larry Costello of
the Milwaukee Bucks before go
ing to Dallas, said it made no
difference to him whether he was
connected with the NBA or the
ABA.
“I think there’ll be a merger
or consolidation within a year or
two anyway,” he said.
Nissalke succeeds Lenny Wil-
kens, who relinquished his coach
ing duties but will continue play
