For the first time in history, Texas A&M scored 100 points in its
opening basketball game. Too bad most of you didn’t get to see it.
No one knows exactly who to blame on the lack of student
attendance in Tuesday’s contest against Wayland. It could be the fault
of the Battalion by not getting any stories out before the holidays, but
there was a pre-game story Tuesday afternoon.
The brunt of the blame must fall on our yell leaders.
Their sole purpose is to promote student participation for athletic
events. This has not been done. Fm sure painting signs is beneath the
dignity of these men of such high esteem, but at least the games could
be announced in the dining halls. If just the people that lived on
campus went to the games, G. Rollie White would be full.
The athletic department is doing all it can trying to make the
games more colorful and entertaining. Beginning Friday, A&M will play
some spirited music like “Sweet Georgia Brown” over the public
address speakers during warm-up drills.
There will also be a good crop of recruits in for the game looking
for a place to play football next fall.
The starters, instead of just being introduced, will be spotlighted
with all other lights doused instead of the usual manner.
The most important part of an exciting basketball evening is the
product out there on the court. For A&M, it could be one of the most
outstanding teams ever to play in the coliseum. With the depth,
shooting ability, quickness, defensive prowess and inborn talent, A&M
has a chance to put 100 points on the board every game.
The entire team is exciting this year with cocaptain Mario Brown
leading the way. His nickname “Brother Rap” tells the story. His
showmanship keeps the team loose and the fans buzzing with his act
during the game.
Also back this season is Randy Knowles who makes everyone hold
their breath when he tries one of his 35-foot jump shots. His
tremendous rebounding ability will be a surprise for all this season.
JC transfer, Chuck Tone, from Grinnel, Iowa gives the Aggies great
outside shooting strength with his softer jump from the corner. And of
course there s Jeff Overhouse and Jerry Mercer underneath the bucket
grabbing anything that comes in their direction to add even more
excitement.
Another plus will be added Friday night when UTA comes into
town for a game against the Aggies. The Mavericks are bringing their
pom-pom girls to add a little spice during halftime with their musical
routines.
It’s too bad that A&M has to import talent from visiting teams
however. We have probably the finest band in the state and it seems
that some of its members would like to form a little stage band group
and entertain the crowd during breaks in the action.
I realize they need a little rest after the long football season but
there are surely some band members that go to the games anyway. And
they’d sure make things more exciting when the Aggies win the
conference crown.
There are about 15,000 people with activity cards here which
enables the holder to get in the games free. There is only one game per
night this year due to freshman eligibility rules and the starting time has
been moved back to 7:30 p.m. which will get you back home by 9:15.
It’s free, entertaining, exciting and enjoyable, so let’s get out and
support those Ags during the remainder of the season. We’ll let you
know when the games are if you read the Batt and maybe the yell
leaders will do their job also.
Landry Hints
Adderley May
Be Washed Up
By DENNIE H. FREEMAN
Associated Press Sports Writer
DALLAS (A 1 ) — Dallas Coach
Tom Landry gave little encour
agement Wednesday to corner-
back Herb Adderley’s plea to play
more.
Asked if he thought Adderley
would participate in the remain
ing three games on the defending
National Football League cham
pion’s schedule, Landry said “I
don’t know if Adderley will get
to play again.”
The 12-year NFL veteran of
four Super Bowls told The Asso
ciated Press, “It’s obvious to me
my future isn’t with the Dallas
Cowboys . . . this will be my last
year.”
The 33-year-old Adderley, who
played in two Super Bowls for
Green Bay before he was traded
to Dallas where he played in two
more, said, “I know I have some
play left in me ... I can still
go ... I just want the chance.”
Landry has inserted three-year
man Charlie Waters in Adder-
ley’s comerback post.
Adderley, who said he is on the
last year of his contract, said, “I
hate to go. It’s been a tremendous
experience here. I’ve met some
beautiful people and that’s what
life is all about.
“I go to practice with a smile.
I thank God I’m healthy. And I
feel a certain sadness for all the
great players who haven’t played
in the Super Bowl like Gayle
Sayers, Sonny Jurgensen, Deacon
Jones, Merlin Olsen, and Larry
Wilson.”
Adderley said, “I feel very
appreciative that the Cowboys
thought I was good enough to
make a trade for me three years
ago. I could have gone to another
team and been completely for
gotten.
“I think they want to go with
youth at my cornerback position
... I’m a team man ... I have
to go along with a team situation
. . . I’m a team man . . . and a
winner.”
He said, “I think I helped the
Cowboys and I played the best
football I can possibly play . . .
I plan to go in and have a decent
conversation about my situation
at the end of the season. If there
is any future left for me with
Dallas, I would appreciate know
ing what the" situation is . . .
There’s no doubt about my future
here . . . I’m not in it.”
