THE BATTALION Page 4 College Station, Texas Friday, March 30, 1973 Face Owls, Cougars And ACC Aggie Thinclads Venture To Houston By BILL HENRY A&M’s rejuvenated track team hopes to keep things on a win ning note Saturday when it trav els to Houston for a quadrangular meet with Rice, Houston and Abi lene Christian College. Many of the thinclads were sore-legged after last week’s Col lege Station Relays’ champion ship but all should be ready to morrow. A win Saturday should give the thinclads enough confidence to assure a second place finish in the conference meet. Rice was runner-up to Texas last year but the Aggies defeated the Owls in their last encounter here three weeks ago. Solid points are already estab lished between Rice and A&M as individual stars have yet to be intimidated. A&M should win five races and Rice seven but there are three toss-ups that will determine the champion. Billy Porter should win the 100-yard dash after his showing last week and Sammy Dierschke should take the 220-yard dash. Scottie Jones has the inside track in the 120-yard high hurdles and high jumper Ben Greathouse should have an easy day. A&M’s Donny Rogers should take the long jump ribbon after going over 25 feet last week. Dave Roberts should win the pole vault for Rice, having jump ed 17-6 already this year. Jim Pearce should win the javelin contest, having a 239-11 throw this year. A&M’s freshman Bill Tennis Team Hosts Three Dual Meets This Weekend Fresh from their third-place finish in the Rice Intercollegiate tournament, A&M’s tennis forces play three dual matches on their home courts this weekend. The Aggies face Stephen F. Austin on Friday, the LSU Tigers on Saturday and Alabama on Sunday. All the matches begin at 1:30 p.m. Pie Eating Contest Set The New Tradition Singers is sponsoring a pie-eating contest beginning at noon Saturday at the Residence Hall Association’s Field Day in the Walton Quad. There will be a contest every 30 minutes with 10 participants in each contest. The first person to finish his pie is the winner. Money raised will be used for the purchase of uniforms next year. Prizes include: two steak din ners, salad and drink at the Steak House; two free dinners and drink at Monterrey House; dinner for two at the Ricsha Restau rant; a $5.00 gift certificate for the Sook; two steak dinners at the Oakridge Smokehouse; $10.00 in meal coupons at Wyatt’s Cafe teria; two $5.00 gift certificates (two prizes) for the Country Squire; any size pizza at the Pizza Hut; and a bottle of wine at Jay’s Wines. Tickets are being sold by mem bers of the New Tradition Sing ers and will be on sale at the booth. For ticket and other in formation call Carol Silverthorne at 5-7274. LSU beat the Aggies in an exhibition match last fall and Alabama is a top contender for the tennis crown in the Southeast Conference. In the Rice meet, Bill Wright and Bill Hoover advanced to the quarterfinals in singles while the team of Dan Courson and Carter Lomax won the double champion ships. Coach Omar Smith called the tournament victory by Courson and Lomax the “greatest tennis win in A&M history.’’ The Aggies now stand 5-3 in dual match competition but drop ped their Southwest Conference opener to co-favorite Houston 6-1. Smith feels the team has now re bounded from the Houston de feat and is ready to play its best. “We made a good showing at Rice after our UH loss and the boys have recovered mentally,” Smith said. “If we play as well as possible we can still win the conference championship.” The Aggies are rated behind SMU and Houston in pre-confer ence picks and should battle Rice and Texas for third in the SWC play. “People are not aware of the quality of tennis we play in the conference,” Smith said. “There are always three or four teams in the country’s top 20 from the SWC.” Intramural Attractions, Result Wrestling finals in Class A will be held at 7:30 p.m. April 2 in DeWare Fieldhouse.

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 ah 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?

Why do you wish to study it?” I asked a botanist. He then suggested taking a single flower from the cluster and looking at it through his microscope. I was amazed at the delicate shading and breath taking design of an individual bloom. I almost wished he hadn’t shown it to me. I trample on thousands of them every day. The beauty and blessings of life are enhanced by observing God’s creation through the lens of Truth. Consider the Church as a spiritual microscope. It helps you see the worth of single souls. It encourages you to call no man common or trample his capacities under the foot of indifference. It helps you discover and appreciate all the wonders of God’s marvelous creation.
