Texas 500 Set For November 12th
Heated Battle At Speedway
The November 12th Texas 500
at the Texas World Speedway is
shaping up to be the most com
petitive race of the year with
over 60 entries having been re
ceived from all three of the na
tion’s stock car sanctioning
bodies.
One of the most heated battles
in the history of automobile rac
ing will take place between Rich
ard Petty and Bobby Allison in
the full FIA-NASCAR sanctioned
event. Both Petty and Allison
will be making their final bid to
clinch the NASCAR Winston Cup
title and take home the winner’s
share of over $134,000 including
race purse and point monies.
Petty, one of two racing mil
lionaires entered in the 500-mile
classic will be seeking his fourth
Grand National Championship
during his 14-year career.
Other drivers from the National
Association for Stock Car Auto
mobile Racing include David
Pearson, winner of five super
speedway races this season in the
Woods Brother’s Mercury. Also
two-time World 600 winner Bud
dy Baker will be behind the wheel
of the K & K Insurance Dodge
along with this year’s Talladega
500 winner James Hylton in a
Mercury.
Top names from the United
States Automobile Club will join
the field making it one of the
most impressive lists of drivers
ever assembled for one event.
A. J. Foyt who has already
beaten the NASCAR boys at Day
tona and Ontario this year will
pilot a second Mercury from the
Woods Brother’s stable. Foyt,
who is also a racing millionaire
has been considered by many to
be the most versatile driver to
ever sit behind the wheel of a
race car.
Joining Foyt from the US AC
ranks will be Johnny Rutherford
driving the Junior Dunlovey Mer
cury that Ramo Stott brought in
second at Talladega earlier this
season.
The latest entry for the Texas
500 is Ron Hutcherson, winner of
last week’s Royal Triton ARCA
300 at the Texas World Speed
way. The Keokuk, Iowa native is
the brother of former NASCAR
great, Dick Hutcherson and is
currently the Automobile Racing
Club of America National Cham
pion.
With the deadline still two
weeks away, entries continue to
pour in.
Practice begins on Thursday,
November 9th followed by two
days of qualifying and the rich
Texas 500 is set for 1:00 p.m. on
Sunday, November 12th.
NEW YORK (A*) _ Gaylord
Perry, rangy Cleveland right
hander, was named winner Tues
day of the 1972 Cy Young Award
as the best pitcher in the Amer
ican League.
The 34-year-old Indian ace had
a 24-16 record and an earned run
average of 1.92, second to the
league’s best, the 1.91 by Luis
Tiant of Boston.
In winning the Cy Young
Award, Perry duplicated the feat
of his brother, Jim, who was
voted the AL’s top pitcher at
Minnesota in 1970. That was the
year Gaylord and Jim became the
first brother combination in ma
jor league history to win 20
games each.
Perry narrowly edged Wilbur
Wood, Chicago White Sox
knuckleballer, in the vote of the
Baseball Writers Association of
America.
He received nine first place
votes from the 24-man commit
tee, two from each AL city.

Fry Gives Mustangs Little
Chance Of Stopping Texas
By DENNE H. FREEMAN
Associated Press Sports Writer
DALLAS <A>) — Southern
Methodist Coach Hayden Fry
said Tuesday the ninth-ranked
Texas Longhorns are “every bit
as good” as their 1969 national
championship team.
The Mustangs meet Texas Sat
urday afternoon in Austin in a
crucial Southwest Conference tilt
as the ’Horns try to steamroller
to their fifth consecutive league
title.
“They have the finest offen
sive line you’ll ever see in col
lege football,” Fry said. “Full
back Roosevelt Leaks is as good
if not better than graduated
Steve Worster. He’s faster than
Worster.”
Fry said he though Texas
quarterback Alan Lowry is better
than former Longhorn greats
Eddie Phillips, Donnie Wiggin-
ton and James Street.
“Lowry runs like a fullback,”
Fry said. “There’s no lost mo
tion. It’s unbelievable the way
he runs. He ran right by Arkan
sas. You can’t arm tackle him
because he’s got the strength of
a fullback and he’s playing quar
terback.”
Asked about Texas’ passing
game, Fry said, “I don’t know
that we’ll ever know about their
passing game. They haven’t had
to use it much lately.”
He said the only way the 16-
point underdog Mustangs could
whip Texas was for the Long
horns to make mistakes and for
SMU to play an exceptional
game.
“I think it is possible for us
to beat them but Texas should
and probably will go right
through its schedule to the cham
pionship,” Fry said. “We’ve got
a chance — but that’s about all.”
Fry said he still had confidence
in quarterback Keith Bobo despite
an off day against Texas Tech
in a 17-3 loss.
“I’m sold on him,” Fry said.
“I think my team will get a lot
better. And so will Keith.”
Fry said he was mystified by
the poor showing of running
back Alvin Maxson against Tech.
“It was his poorest game,” he
said.
