Miss Royal Triton
Visits A&M Campus
By BILL HENRY
Battalion Sports Editor
Miss Royal Triton, Linda Ever-
sole, visited the A&M campus
yesterday and today to build stu
dent interest for this Sunday’s
300 mile ARCA stock car race.
Students couldn’t have missed
the lovely blue-eyed, brown-haired
beauty strolling around campus
in a purple and white mini-skirt.
“I just love your campus,” she
said. “I never knew it was so big
and pretty. The people are real
friendly and seem to be pretty
curious about our race.”
Who wouldn’t be curious ?
Linda, a Dallas native, lists her
hobbies as motorcycling, horse
back riding, sewing and all out
door activities.
It’s no wonder about motor
cycling. She was “Miss Kawasaki”
in Dallas, Chicago and Talladega,
Ala., national races.
She got her first taste of stock
car driving Thursday morning
when Jim Halloway, race track
owner, took her around the track
in the ARCA 300 pace car.
“I was really excited and got
into the mood,” she said. “I’d
never been in a race car before
on a regulation track. The thing
that intrigued me most was that
the tires had to be over-inflated
just so the wheels would stay on
due to the high wall incline.”
Linda was a finalist in the Dal
las Model of the Year contest in
which the final interview was
with TV personality Bobe Hope.
She has worked with Eddie Albert
on “Rescue Through Recycling”
which was sponsored by Dr. Pep
per and she appeared on the Jerry
Lewis Muscular Dystrophy Tele
thon.
Besides modeling, Linda teaches
“Charm and Modeling” at Mont
gomery Wards and works with
underprivileged children in Dal
las.
“Working with those kids really
satisfies me,” she said. “They are
so poor and need help. Every Sat
urday we give away shoes at the
Chapel. They don’t know enough
even to keep themselves clean.”
Her tour here will mostly be
promoting Royal Triton Oil and
Sunday’s race. Thursday after
noon she was at the Firestone
Store giving away free tickets
and oil changes and meeting the
residents of Bryan-College Sta
tion.
Her modeling career has in
cluded national photographic ad
vertisements for Oak Farms, Al-
lercreme Cosmetics (in Glamour,
Seventeen and McCalls), Dr. Pep
per and Corrigan Jewelry.
She has also done special pro
motions for Calvert Distilleries,
American Motors, Reynolds Alum
inum and General Electric.

The Southwest Conference kicks
off its second week with eight of
its nine teams in action. The Ag
gies have the week off.
The one conference game of
the weekend pits Arkansas
against TCU in the Horned Frogs
Amon Carter Stadium. A crowd
of over 40,000 is expected for the
SWC opener of both clubs and
this should test what the pre-sea
son favored Hogs are made of.
TCU is unbeaten in two games
while the Razorbacks have been
beaten only by top ranked South
ern Cal. The Razorbacks have
however been having trouble with
teams they were expected to roll
over. Arkansas has beaten Okla
homa State and Tulsa, neither
one a national power, by one point
each. The Hogs are a 5% point
favorite in the 7:30 p.m. kick
off.
The Texas Longhorns take a
week off by playing Utah State
in Austin. The Horns established
they are a team to be reckoned
with by beating a tough Texas
Tech squad 25-20 last week in
Lubbock.
The Longhorns need a patsy
this week because they catch
Oklahoma and Arkansas back to
back these next two weeks.
Texas finds itself in a dandy roll
as heavy favorite, so heavy that
no line has been set for the score.
It should be Texas by about 35.
The Baylor Bears play their
first home game under coach
Grant Teaff in Waco Saturday
night. The Bears are an eight
point underdog but have beaten
the point spread every time out
this season. Miami looked any
thing but impressive against Tex
as and the Hurricanes now are
0-2. Both teams had the week
off and should be ready.
The University of Houston
travels to the black hills of Vir
ginia, the site of last weeks upset
of SMU by Virginia Tech. The
oddsmakers have rated the game
a toss-up and the Coogs will be
trying to get their high-gear
offense in motion. Houston is 1-2
while VPI has an identical mark.
The Rice Owls go giant killing
against LSU in Houston. Rice is
a 14 point underdog to the eighth
ranked Tigers but tied Georgia
Tech last week under the '<ame
odds. Bruce Gadd’s passing will
have to be extra sharp for the
Owls to stand a chance but be
tween Gadd and LSU’s all-Amer
ica candidate Bert Jones, the air
should be filled with footballs in
,'Rice Stadium Saturday night.
Over 65,000 is expected for the
Saturday night contest.
SMU, untracked by Virginia
Tech last week when the M&M
boys (Maxon and Morris) melted
in coach Hayden Frys hand, face
New Mexico State in Texas Sta
dium Saturday afternoon.
New Mexico is led by quarter
back Joe Pisarcik, who was the
country’s 11th leading passer last
year. Hopes on SMU were high
after good showings i
Forest and Florida butli
upset by Virginia Techi,
ed some doubt. The Pos
nine point favorites.
