Page 4 College Station, Texas Friday, February 9, 1973 THE BATTALION Saturday’s Contest On Regional TV Terry-Led Razorbacks To Battle Ags By KEVIN COFFEY Assistant Sports Editor A&M must remove all thoughts of Tuesday’s SMU brawl and turn their minds to the Arkansas Ra zorbacks. The Martin Terry led Razor- backs invade G. Rollie White Coli seum Saturday at 2:30 p.m. to do battle with the Aggies on region al television. The game could be labeled a contest of also rans with both teams falling short of preseason predictions. Arkansas is 11-8, standing 4-3 in SWC play. A&M is also 11-8 on the seasop and stands 3-4 in loop play. Coach Shelby Metcalf thinks his Aggies can erase Tuesday night’s action from their minds and prepare for the Hogs. “For get about the fight,” the A&M mentor said, “it’s all history now and we lost the game besides. We can’t look back now.” Looking ahead for Metcalf can only bring nightmares when he thinks of Arkansas’ all SWC guard Martin Terry. Terry scored 46 points against the Ags last year in Fayetteville and countered with 32 when the clubs met in College Station. In this years 84- 73 Arkansas victory in the Ozarks, Terry again showed scor ing proficiency ripping the net for 35 tallies. That’s 37.7 points a game. “The big thing about Ter ry is his foul shooting,” Metcalf said. “He gets a lot of people thinking about his outside shoot ing and they jump into him on his first fake.” Terry is joined in his efforts by junior Dean Tolson. The 6-8 Tolson scored 22 points and grabbed 16 rebounds against the Aggies in Fayetteville and A&M Track Season Begins With Astro Federation Meet Texas A&M track coaches Char lie Thomas and Ted Nelson will take 17 thinclads to Houston Sat urday to compete in the National Indoor Federation Meet in the Astrodome. The Aggies will have entries in the mile relay, two-mile relay, distance medley relay and pole vault, and possibly in the high jump and 120-yard high hurdles. Ben Greathouse is the first alter nate in the high jump while Scot- tie Jones is the second alternate in the hurdles. “I think our best chances are in the one and two-mile relays,” coach Charlie Thomas said. “Ben Greathouse might have a chance to place in the high jump. If he gets up to 7 feet, he’ll place about fourth, that’s how rough the com petition is down there. “Scotty Jones has a slim chance to place in the 120-yard high hur dles and Harold McMahon could do well in the pole vault.” All relay events will be between Southwest Conference members only while individual events will enter only the nation’s best which include almost all the United States Olympians. The distance medley relay team will consist of Pat Bradley run- Reserves Swim Against Owls Texas A&M’s swim team will bypass the Southwest AAU meet in Dallas this week and Aggie reserves will go against Rice and John Brown U. in a double dual in Houston Saturday. Coach Dennis Fosdick said he would keep the top three men in each event at home for the final hard workouts of the year this weekend. “After that we’ll start our quality work so we can peak for the SWC meet.” Against Rice and John Brown U., of Siloam Springs, Ark., the Aggies will compete with swim mers ranked fourth or lower in each event. The Aggies are 3-2 in dual meets this year. They’ve beaten Texas Tech, Houston and Arkan sas and they’ve lost to Texas and Air Force Academy. Next week the Aggies go against TCU and UT-Arlington on Thursday and then face pow erful SMU on Saturday, all on the road. ning the 880 leg, Wayne Mills the 440, Jacob Yemme the 1320 and Charles Cottle the mile. The two- mile relay team will have Dennis O’Brien, Harold Davis, Willie Blackmon and Horace Grant, all Houstonians. The mile relay foursome hasn’t been finalized but will come from a group of Sammy Dierschke, Marvin Mills, Wayne Mills, Rob ert Brew, Doug Brodhead, Black mon and Grant. Harold McMahan will compete in the pole vault. The meet starts at 7 p.m. Sat urday. A replay of the United States Olympic Trials high jump will feature the Houston Post-spon sored Astrodome Federation Na tional Indoor Championships. All three American Olympic high jumpers are entered in the Astrodome meet with Trials champion Dwight Stones, the “baby” of the team, Chris Dunn and Ron Jourdan. Stones took the U. S. Trials with a personal record of 7-3, up setting seasoned international class jumpers Jourdan and Dunn. In Munich, the 18-year-old UCLA freshman was the only American to clear the 7-0 % qualifying height. He returned the next day to clear 7-3 for the Olympic bronze. Jourdan and Dunn took second and third at the U. S. Olympic trials, both clearing 7-3. Jourdan was the tenth ranked high jump er in the world in ’72, and placed second on the United States’ list behind Stones. Third in the U. S., Dunn was given an honorable mention in the world’s rankings for 1972. In the 1972 Astrodome meet, Dunn won the high jump with a leap of 7-1 with Jourdan second with 6-11. Tickets are $2.50 each in re served sections, and $1 in the un reserved pavilion section. Tickets can be purchased at the Astro dome and all five Foley’s stores.

HAPPY COTTAGE GIFTS 809 E. 29th » » according to Metcalf, “Intimidat ed our big people.” Metcalf said that Jerry Mercer, A&M’s best defensive postman, may draw the assignment of guarding Tolson. A pair of 6-7 forwards in Doug Campbell and Dennis White com plete the Arkansas front line with Jody Bass assisting Terry in the ballhandling duties. Last year A&M nipped the Ra zorbacks 72-71 in College Station. G. Rollie White seems to hold some type of jinx over the Hogs as they have not won here since 1959, a string of 13 games. The Hogs are a high scoring outfit and led the conference in scoring last year with a 88.5 aver age. That was good enough for 17th in the nation. There are eight lettermen re turning from that squad, led by the leading scorer, Terry, and the leading rebounder, in Tolson. Coach Lanny Van Eman has a record of 24-47 and is in his third year at Arkansas. Metcalf is 135- 108 at A&M and is in his tenth season at the helm of the Aggies. The 1973 SWC has been a dis appointment to the Aggies but Metcalf doesn’t feel his team will be down for the battle with the Razorbacks. “I think our older kids will keep on competing even though we’re out of the race. I think we have all learned a les son this year,” the A&M coach said. The Aggies plan to counter the Arkansas five with Mario Brown and Mike Floyd at the guard spots with Cedric Joseph, Randy Knowles and Jeff Overhouse across the back line. Overhouse will have plenty of personal incentive going for him in tomorrow’s game. He has 1,064 career points at A&M and will pass Billy Bob Barnett on his first bucket to take over the sixth position among A&M s c or i n g leaders. Overhouse is currently fourth among Aggie cagers in ca reer rebounds with 652, seventh in SWC career points with 564 and fourth in S W C career re bounds with 355. Knowles is currently the lead ing scorer for the Aggies with a 16.4 norm in conference play. Overhouse is second at 15.4 and Brown third at 12.7. Overhouse is the team’s leading rebounder with 11.4 caroms a con test, Joseph second at 9.9 and Knowles third at 7.7. Mario Brown leads the team in assists with 70 for the season. Tomorrow’s contest is the 104th time the two schools have met with Arkansas holding a 64-39 edge. The game will be telecast throughout Texas over TVS net work with Frank Fallon doing the play by play. KORA will broadcast the game over the Texas Aggie Basketball network beginning at 2:25 p.m. Watch & Jewelry Repaii Engraving Diamonds Set In Senior Rings Seiko & Bulova Watches Embrey’s Jewelr “The Friendly Store" North Gate 846-5811 BUSIER - JONES AGENG HOME MORTGAGES INSURANCE farm & home savings association Home Office: Nevada, Mo. 3523 Texas Ave. (in Ridgecrest) 84 6-370S The Church..For a Fuller Life..For You Which Way Does The... t Fi T.

Earlier, before the wind steadied it in its southerly direction, the eagle twirled, turning first one way, then the other. It reminded me of the way I some times feel. Caught in the persistent cry of changing values, confused by the onrush of progressive ideas, I twist and turn, trying to select the good and reject the bad. I’m glad for the steadying influ ence of my church. The principles it teaches never change. Honesty, in tegrity and a love of God are impor tant whatever the mores of society. Knowing this keeps me happy in a world of change and upheaval. Your church can do the same for you. Copyright 1970 Keister Advertising Service, Inc., Strasburg, Va.
