Orders for the 727- 200 have passed the 1,000 mark, and the sale of ten 707’s to China represents a break through which gained worldwide attention. Boeing continues to pursue vigorously a number of major aerospace programs, includ ing a short takeoff and landing (STOL) air craft, helicopters, the Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS), and space vehicles and equipment, among others. Boeing Computer Services, Inc., a wholly- owned subsidiary, is becoming recognized as a broad based company with services not only in consulting, training, computer system de sign, programming, and data processing, but also in management, operations research, and management of customer computer facilities. While the major elements of our business continue to be commercial jet transportation and government defense and space require ments, we have begun activities outside these traditional areas. Measured on the scale of total company operations, these diversifica tion activities don’t loom very large yet. But we believe they have potential for the future and could represent as much as 25 percent of total sales in a decade. A few of these pro grams are: 1) people movers to unclog traffic conditions in our cities; 2) hydrofoils to move people and freight over water faster; 3) a 100,000-acre test site where we’re growing CAW’ 1 " no selU appeal plait* o pays v* intervi* crops in a desert that has been stabilized with garbage from a nearby city; 4) a pollution control process that has application in de salination and as a treatment of industrial waste; and 5) aerospace programs that can lead to a better understanding of how to use this planet’s natural resources more efficiently. The point is—today Boeing is a lean, ambitious, and very inventive company. A place where new ideas flourish. Where an attitude prevails that nothing we did before is good enough for tomorrow. An organization that’s rebuilding. Strong. Healthy. And de voted to the development of new systems that can keep planet Earth on course and the people who live here healthy. If this sounds like the kind of company you can grow with, let’s get together. The place to start is with your Placement Office. An equal opportunity employer. Over Mustangs, 27-17 rej sti we By BILL HENRY Battalion Sports Editor Texas A&M’s offensive ma chine found high gear Saturday afternoon in Dallas in what began as a rout and ended up as the usual, heart-stopping Aggie foot ball game of 1972. After the first quarter, A&M had amassed five first downs, 77 yards rushing, 34 passing and had a 17-0 lead. A&M’s defensive unit had given up a total of 19 yards total offense stopping the famed M&M boys at will. As that illustrious first quar ter came to a close, it was ‘end zone to end zone’ smiling Aggie faces on a beautiful sun-lit aft ernoon in the Cotton Bowl. By the end of the third quar ter, those Aggie faces turned as cold as the north breeze as 36,109 fans watched the 17-0 lead dwin dle to a 17-17 tie with 6:10 re maining in the puzzling contest. Was it to be another Texas Tech, TCU or Baylor game? That was the question in everyone’s mind as the heartless SMU fans kept screaming “Poor Aggies” as the game drew to a tie. A little less than four minutes later it wasn’t “Poor Aggies” but “$#%&? Aggies” being scream ed from the SMU student sec tion as little Pat McDermott boot ed a 37-yard field goal with 2:12 remaining to put A&M ahead for good 20-17. The Aggies went 29 minutes and 11 seconds between their fifth and sixth first downs of the ball game. The fifth came with 2:38 left in the first quarter and the sixth came with 4:24 left in the third quarter. The Mustangs could not move the ball on the first series from their own 11-yard line and punted the ball to A&M at the Aggie , 45-yard line. A&M moved for one first down into Mustang territory but could go no further than the 37 where McDermott kicked a school rec ord field goal of 54 yards to put A&M ahead 3-0 with only four minutes gone on the clock. SMU got the hall back at its own 10-yard line but again could not move against the fired up Aggie defense and punted to Carl Roaches who returned the ball to the Mustang 35. Three plays later freshman Skip Walker got the pitch from quarterback Don Dean and scoot- | ed 24 yards for the touchdown j with tremendous clearing blocks by fellow backfield members Brad Dusek and Ronnie Hubby. Mc Dermott kicked the extra point and the Aggies led 10-0 with 6:58 remaining in the quarter. A&M started its third scoring- drive at its own 42-yard line. Aft er a five yard motion penalty, Dean hit Roaches for 29 yards to the SMU 34. Seven plays later, Walker again went around the left side after snatching Dean’s pitchout for the score from the 8-yard line with another fine block by Dusek. McDermott’s kick was good and A&M led 17-0 with 1:26 left in the quarter. The first play of the second quarter gave A&M another excel lent opportunity to score with freshman linebacker Ed Simonini picking- off quarterback Keith Bobo’s first pass at the A&M 49. Two plays later Dean fumbled the exchange from center and SMU recovered at its own 49. SMU got the ball hack again after an exchange of punts and Bobo hit freshman split end Ken ny Harrison on a 43-yard bomb in the end zone for the Mustangs first score. Cornerhack Robert Robert Murski had the speedster covered like a blanket hut the talented end swept the hall away above last week’s SWC player of the week. The kick was wide right as A&M led 17-6 with 12:04 re maining. During that second quarter, A&M had gained only 22 yards total offense and had been pen alized for 58. Nothing at all happened in the third quarter for either team as both defenses played tough. The fourth quarter’s excite ment was enough for both as j SMU concluded a 97-yard drive in 12 plays with Bobo carrying over the final yard himself. The Mus tangs went for two points with a pass from Bobo to tight end Roan making the score 17-14 with 13:36 left to play. Seven minutes later, SMU drove 48 yards in 12 plays as Hackney kicked a 39-yard field goal after the Aggie defense stif fened. With 6:10 remaining, the Mustangs tied the score. 17-17. It was to be now or never for the A&M offense. If they did not score on the ensuing drive, the chances of winning were slim. A&M began the drive at its straif own 15-yard line after return of Hackney’s kickoffnj 6:04 to play. A first down was achieved the A&M 37 after a 15-yardt by Hubby. Two plays later,A( found itself with a third andeij situation with 4:30 to go. With absolutely no one eoi ing, Dean hit Homer May in right flat for 41 yards to SMU 20. After three plays from the 20, McDei was called in to do his thing 37 yards out. With 2:12 lefi hall sailed through for the ning points, 20-17. With 2:06 left, SMU hid chance beginning a drive at 19 after the kickoff. Moi hack to pass and defensive Mike Bruton knocked the lose, and linebacker Kent Fi recovered for A&M at the Three plays later Hubby over from the two and Mf| mott kicked the extra point the 27-17 win. del in qu wa fel Vol. ( Ponderosa Specials • Friday Evening Fis Fry — $2.00 Sunday Noon Lunch $2.00 • Special Weekend B for Parents & Students j (all 846-5794 Ponderosa Motor Inn JAY’S SABER IJNN Package Store Come by and let us show you our selection of fine liquon and wines.
