THE BATTALION
Raiders Seek First SWC Title Saturday
Aggies Seek Revenge For One-Point Loss To Tech
By KEVIN COFFEY
“Close but no cigar” has be
come an often used saying by
Texas Tech’s 1973 Southwest
Conference opponents. The Red
Raiders have won three confer
ence games in overtime periods
and one other by a single point.
The single point victory came
at the expense of the Texas Ag
gies and Saturday night, A&M
will have its chance to avenge
that defeat.
The Ags have no one to blame
for their 68-67 loss as they hit on
ly 36 per cent of their shots com
pared to Tech’s red hot 58 per
cent. The Aggies had a chance
to pull the game out after trail
ing by eight with five minutes
remaining, only to have a last
second play go awry.
Things have changed since
Tech and the Aggies last met.
A&M was fighting for survival
and everyone was waiting for the
Raiders to fold. Neither hap
pened.
Tech has breezed through the
conference with a 10-1 record
and A&M has fallen to 6-5. Only
Arkansas has a chance to catch
Tech and it is very slim. A Tech
win will give the Raiders their
first SWC basketball champion
ship.
All is not lost for the Aggies
as they still can grab a piece of
second place in this year’s run
away race.
Besides second place, some Ag
gies will have individual motiva
tion going into tomorrow night’s
battle.
Randy Knowles, the team’s
leading scorer at 19.6 and lead
ing rebounder at 9.8, is A&M’s
No. 1 all-conference candidate.
The race for this year’s elite team
is very close and Knowles can
hardly have another substandard
performance.
Senior Jeff Overhouse has
tucked sereval A&M records un
der his belt and is still in shooting
A&M-Rice Track Meet Still Set For Saturday;
Weather, Flu Keep Aggies From Top Form
By BILL HENRY
Battalion Sports Editor
Bad weather, flu and injury
have caused havoc for the A&M
track team but Saturday’s dual
meet here against Rice is still
scheduled.
The meet, the Aggies’ first out
door contest of the season, will
begin in Kyle Field at 2:30.
Horace Grant, Marvin Mills
and Harold Davis are hospital
ized with the flu, Scotty Jones
has a strained muscle suffered in
Fort Worth last weekend, while
Sammy Dierschke and Billy Por
ter have just recovered from the
flu bug and have not been able
to get into sprinter condition.
“The flu and bad weather have
really killed us,” coach Charlie
Thomas said. “I guess it’s caused
problems for everyone but I can’t
see it any worse than we’ve had
it.

“We’ve had so much bad weath
er that our sprinters have not
been able to get in condition.
We’re going to use Dierschke and
Porter in the 440-yard run just
for conditioning purposes. We
have also decided not to run our
top sprint relay team until March
10 when all its members can com
pete.”
All is not gloomy for Thomas
and assistant coach Ted Nelson
as some individual performers are
working well.
Top 440-yard dash man Doug
Brodhead, half-milers Willie
Blackmon and Dennis O'Brien
and miler Pat Bradley are shap
ing into top form. Also, long
jumpers Donny Rogers and Tom
Owen have been jumping over
23 feet in workouts.
“We are also pleased with
Wayne Mills,” Thomas said. “We
have converted him from a 440
man to a 440 intermediate hurd
ler and he’s really working. He
might not finish his first race

why does a man
join Maryknoll?
There are probably as many answers
as there are individual Maryknoll
priests and Brothers. Some men are
deeply moved when they hear of
babies dying in their mother's arms
because of hunger or disease. Others
are distressed by the growing antag
onism and separation between the
rich and the poor nations. More are
concerned about the great injustices
that have been inflicted upon the
poor by those who possess wealth
and power to an excessive degree.
Others look to learn from peoples
who have grown up with a different
mentality than that which is theirs.
All feel that the only solution to the
crises that threaten to split men
asunder is the love of God as shown
in the life of His Son, Jesus Christ.
This love of God urges men to go
forward and be missioners so men
can love one another. What could be
your reason for joining Maryknoll?
If you keep saying you want to do something
with your life - here’s your chance to prove it

but before the season is over,
he’ll really be helping us.
“High jumper Ben Greathouse
has been competing well.”
“Greathouse took third in the
high-octane Astrodome Federa
tion track meet two weeks ago
with a jump of 6-10 but missed
6-8 last week in the Fort Worth
Indoor Coaches Games.
“He’s trying to work out a
new step but the weather hasn’t
enabled him to work on it,” Thom
as said. “It’s European style and
it takes a while to work out the
mechanics.”
Rice, which finished second be
hind Texas in last year’s South
west Conference meet, will give
A&M a real test.
The Owls have one of the na
tion’s top pole vaulters in senior
Dave Roberts. He finished fourth
in the Olympic trials.
Rice, not very strong in the
running events, is tremendous in
field events, returning three men
that won four first places in the
conference meet.
Ken Stadel won in the shot put
and discus, Roberts in the pole
vault and Jim Pearce in the jave
lin. The Owls also return the
first place finisher in the hurdles,
Mike Cronholm.
The Aggies look strong in the
440-yard dash, half-mile, 100-yard
dash, 220-yard dash, mile relay
and high jump.
Both teams will be entered in
next Saturday’s Border Olympics
in Laredo.

Overhouse has moved into the
No. 4 spot in all-time A&M scor
ing in both full season and SWC
play. He has 1,114 career points,
614 in conference action. Bennie
Lenox, the No. 3 man on the
scoring list is out of Overhouse’
reach.
Overhouse does, however, have
a chance to catch Ronnie Peret
for the No. 2 spot in all-time re
bounding. He needs 38 caroms
for the full season mark and 10
to move up in the conference
standings.
The Aggies as a team have
also set some records during this
up-and-down season. They estab
lished A&M records in team re
bounds in one game with 76
against Wayland Baptist and
field goals in one game with 49
against Arkansas.
Knowles set a school mark with
20 field goals and a G. Rollie
White Coliseum record with 42
points against the Razorbacks.
Cedric Joseph set the school rec
ord for rebounds in one game
with 23 against Angelo State.
Tech has become known as i
club without great individualskt
excellent team play.
The Red Raiders will start S-!

Scriptures selected by the American Bible Society
When an aviator encounters a
storm, he directs his plane through
the clouds and goes higher. In that
clear, rare atmosphere he is free
from fear and difficulty.
Similarly, when we find ourselves
surrounded by clouds of doubt, we
need to direct our lives into a higher
level where we may free ourselves
of weaknesses and seek the will of
God.
How can we attain these heights?
Through the Church! It offers continu
ous opportunities for new growth,
new life, new understanding. We
need not wait for a more convenient
time. We can enter into the life of
the Church NOW.
