Aggie Golfers Take Second In SWC Meet
Tuesday, October 24, 19 l 72
THE BATTALION
College Station, Texas
Page 5
The A&M golf team captured
Adamson Leads
Ags Over Exes
The A&M water polo team
beat a team of former Aggies
swimmers and water polo players
15-5 Saturday.
L. B. Cox, ’35, was the oldest
player for the ex’s. Cox was on
the first A&M swimming and
water polo team.
Van Adamson, son of long time
A&M swim coach and athletic
hall of fame member Art Adam
son played and scored for the
ex’s in the losing effort.
Doug Adamson, Van's son, led
the scoring for the varsity with
four goals. Lester H a m a n n
scored three goals while Steve
Prentice and Mike Hicks had two
goals each.
The A&M Fish defeated a
strong College Station Swim Club
team 9-7. Casey Cutler was high
scorer for the Fish with four
goals while Lee Davis chipped in
two.
The next action for the varsity
is Thursday night at 8:30 when
they face the Bunch Aquatic
Club, a group from Houston, in
P. L. Downs natatorium on cam
pus.
Saturday the team travels to
Conway, Ark., to play in the Hen
drix Invitational Tournament.
Houston compiled 40 to the Ag
gies 30.
Texas and Houston were the
favorites as both have been domi
nating forces in National Col
legiate Athletic Golf. Texas has
won two straight national cham
pionships, with Houston second
both years after winning the na
tional team title 12 of the previ
ous 14 years.
Even though A&M was not
tabbed a pre-tourney favorite,
Aggies golfer Steve Veriato was
confident the Aggies would fare
well. He said, “We were all play
ing well the week before the
tournament and we feel that we
could hold our own with anybody
there. I felt that we could have
won the match if we got some
breaks.”
“This golf team,” Veriato con
tinued, “really wants to play golf
well. This is the hardest work
ing team since I’ve been here.”
Randy Tickner, Clay Dozier,
Tommy Johnson and Veriato car
ried the Aggie banner over the
rain swept Dallas Oak Cliff
Country Club course which saw
only one sub-par round the whole
tournament.
As well as finishing second as
a team, the duo of Veriato and
Tickner finished second in the
four ball competition. Veriato
said, “individually we didn’t play
well but as a team we ended up
near the top. That’s what we
went up there to do.”
Peace Efforts Stalled, Says Tower
Read Classifieds Daily
HOUSTON (iT 5 )—U.S. Sen. John
Tower, R-Tex., said Monday he
doesn’t see any significant prog
ress in ending the Vietnam War
until after the elections Nov. 7.
“I think they (the North Viet
namese) expect Nixon to win and
know they can’t fight another
four years of attrition,” Tower
said.
Tower, who is running for re-
election, said he believes the
North Vietnamese have felt they
could undermine support for
President Nixon on the war
through psychological warfare.

White Sox’s Tanner Honored
As ‘Manager Of The Year’
NEW YORK <A?>—Chuck Tan
ner charmed moody Dick Allen
into a happy slugger and molded
the lowly Chicago White Sox into
pennant contenders to be named
1972 Manager of the Year in the
American League Monday.
The 43-year-old Tanner out-
polled Eddie Kasko of the Boston
Red Sox in a vote of sports writ
ers and broadcasters conducted by
The Associated Press. Dick Wil
liams of world champion Oakland
finished fifth.
“Our percentage, the second
best in the American League, was
quite an improvement over what
was baseball’s worst team in
1970,” Tanner said at the regular
season’s close.
Tanner improved Chicago’s rec
ord to 79-83 in 1971 and the White
Sox' attendance rose to 833,891.
Then, in 1972, Chicago challenged
Oakland most of the season with
an 87-67 record that helped push
1,186,028 through the turnstiles.
When informed of the Manager
of the Year honor Monday, Tan
ner said: “Pm very grateful. It’s
a big thrill to me. The news really
shook me up. I’ve got to credit the
whole White Sox organization, all
the way from the scouts to the
players who did the job.”
Tanner’s handling of Allen, the
powerhouse hitter with a turbu
lent history in Philadelphia and
Los Angeles, was noted often dur
ing the summer of ’72.
He assumed the fatherly role
with Allen, a kindly figure who
allowed the man once known as
Richie to have his way as long
as the bat was producing.
Allen responded by hitting .308
and leading the American League
in homers with 37 and runs batted
in with 113 to become a prime
candidate for the Most Valuable
Player honor.
Oakland A’s Savor Victory
After Emotional Series Ends
By KEN RAPPOPORT
Associated Press Sports Writer
CINCINNATI <;P> — The Oak
land A’s — World Champions.

Dick Williams.

here,” the Oakland manager add
ed while squeezing the gold bau
ble symbolic of a World Series
winner.
The trophy belonged to the A’s
because of good relief pitching
and clutch hitting — the com
bination that helped win four of
the seven baseball games, in
cluding Sunday’s 3-2 thriller.
Rollie Fingers came through
with the pitching again and Gene
Tenace delivered another clutch
hit as the A’s defeated the Reds
in the final showdown.
“It’s a beautiful thing,” said
Williams, pointing to the trophy
in the champagne-drenched A’s
clubhouse.
Williams understandably was
emotional about his new-found
status in the baseball world. He
had led the Boston Red Sox to a
pennant in 1967, but lost the
World Series to the St. Louis
Cardinals. Two years later, he
was fired.
He was able to take this tro
phy home to Oakland even
though the A’s weren’t given
much of a chance to win it.
From the start, they were torn
with dissension and labeled a pat
sy for the powerful National
League champion Reds.
Pitcher Vida Blue and first
baseman Mike Epstein were the
most notable of the players dis
satisfied with their roles in the
series. Blue verbally blasted his
manager and owner Charles O.
Finley because he wanted to be
a starter, not a relief pitcher.
Epstein had a shouting match
with Williams after he was tak-
S o m e questioned Williams’
logic in using Tenace in the line
up in place of Dave Duncan, a
catcher who had hit 19 home runs
during the season. But Tenace,
who only hit five out of the park
this year, made his manager look
like a genius when he hit two
home runs in the first game for
all the runs as the A’s took a 3-2
decision. Blue, after sounding off
the day before, came in to save
the game for starter Ken Holtz-
man.
In the second game at Cincin
nati, Fingers gave Jim “Catfish”
Hunter ninth-inning help and
made an outstanding catch
against the wall to preserve a 2-1
Oakland triumph.
The beleaguered Reds were
treated with disdain in Oakland.
At the A’s ballpark, fans show
ered left fielder Pete Rose with
eggs and oranges. At Oakland
City Hall, a sign read:
“Where’s Cincinnati?”
The Oakland partisans found
out soon enough. Or at least,
they found out who Jack Billing-
ham was. The journeyman pitch
er, with only a .500 lifetime rec
ord in the majors, allowed but
three hits and no runs in eight
innings and won his first World
Series game 1-0 over the A’s.
Clay Carroll, the Reds’ best re
lief pitcher, saved the game for
him.
After rain postponed the fourth
game one day at Oakland, the
A’s took a 3-1 lead in the series
by beating the Reds 3-2 with a
dramatic, two-run rally in the
ninth inning. Williams could do
no wrong with his replacements
and the result was three singles
by pinch-hitters, including Angel
Mangual’s game-winning blow.
Tenace hit his third home run of
the Series as well.
Rose held in check the first
four games, got back at the Oak
land pitchers with two runs bat
ted in — a first-pitch homer in
the first inning and a game-win
ning single in the ninth — as the
Reds won the fifth game 5-4 and
sent the Series back to Cincin
nati. Tenace hit his fourth home
run in that game to tie a Series
record shared by four others, in
cluding Babe Ruth.
Cincinnati pounded the ball in
the sixth game. The Reds scored
five runs in the seventh inning
as Bobby Tolan and Cesar Geron-
imo delivered two-run singles en-
route to an 8-1 victory.
Finley, the eccentric Oakland
owner, sat sourly near the A’s
dugout and took abuse from the
Cincinnati fans at Riverfront
Stadium.
His day came Sunday, how
ever, when Tenace and Sal Bando
drilled run-scoring doubles in the
sixth inning and Fingers came
on in the eighth to get the A’s
out of trouble in the deciding
game.
Finley, one of baseball’s con
troversial owners, also was one
of the most emotional after the
final-game victory.
Bedecked in a rich green jacket
and gold pants, the owner el
bowed his way through the A’s
crowded dressing room and spilled
champagne on everyone within
range.
He also kissed Williams on the
cheek.
“Neither club is better than
the other,” said Williams.
Praise came easy from a man
who had achieved his goal.
