We were working for second place but we felt that Rice had too many solid points in the field events for us to overcome unless we had a super effort. We got that super effort and Rice didn’t get all its pre dicted points.” Motivation for the squad came early when A&M’s sprint relay team grabbed second with a sea son’s best of 39.9 upping its sea son’s best from 40.4.

SMU’s winning time of 39.8 tied the na tional best while the Aggies’ time stands as the third best national- ly. “I told the relay team they could drop under 40-flat but they didn’t believe me,” assistant coach Ted Nelson said. “They believe it now and there is no tell ing how fast they will run at the national meet.” The biggest upset of the meet occured when A&M sophomore David Peterek pole vaulted 16-0 to capture first place defeating both the 1972 champion, Texas’ Bill Smalley, and two-time NCAA champion, Dave Roberts of Rice. “This was the greatest event in my life,” Peterek said in jubi lation. “I was really pumped up for the competition and felt great. I had real good form for a change and I think I’ll be able to jump 16-6 at the national meet. Both Roberts and Smalley need a strong wind to vault well but I don’t and there wasn’t very much wind.” Smalley finished second with more misses at 16-0. Roberts, however, made a mental mistake that may have cost the Owls the runner-up position at the meet when he failed to make any height. Competition started at 14-0 but Roberts passed all his jumps un til 16-6. Darkness had begun to set in at the pole vault area by that time and Roberts did not clear 16-6 on any of his three jumps. Roberts, who holds the national best with a 17-6 jump, did the same thing at the 1972 meet allowing Smalley to cop the championship at 16-0. A&M’s Scottie Jones, holding the nation’s fourth best time at 13.5 in the 120-yard high hurdles, took the event at that same time defeating Texas’ Randy Lightfoot in one of the featured events. Lightfoot, who lost concentration trying to catch Jones who had taken a commanding lead out of the blocks, hit three of the last four hurdles and finished fifth in 14.1. “I got out of the blocks real well but I knew Lightfoot would Sammy Dierschke anca announces the presentation of its summer 40 day intensive training in conscious evolution.

I think he pressed and started watching me instead of the hurdles which caused him to hit the hurdles. He had more to prove than I did since it was his track and fans.” In the highly controversial 880- yard run, A&M’s Horace Grant finished second but was disquali- field for allegedly pushing Tex as’ Mike Tibbets. A&M’s Willie Blackmon, who finished third, was awarded second place in a time of 1:50.7. Coaches and other runners in the event said they clearly saw Tibbets bumped by his teammate John Craig but the officials failed to lift the disquali fication. In the 100-yeard dash, A&M’s Dierschke finished second in a sesaon’s best time of 9.4 while teammate Porter finished fifth in 9.6. D’Ambrosio also qualified for the finals but placed seventh after another controversy. Ben Greathouse, A&M high jumper and 1970 champion, fin ished second at a season’s best height of 6-10. The mile relay team of Harold Davis, Blackmon, Grant and Doug Brodhead finished third in a time of 3:09.7. In other field events, A&M’s Donny Rogers took second in the long jump with a 24-814 leap. Baylor’s Danny Brabham finished first and set a new conference; record at 25-8. Freshman Bill Newton finished fourth in the javelin which was won by Rice’s Jim Pearce with a 236-3 heave for his third straight conference championship. Craig Carter, freshman shot putter, finished fifth in the event won for the fourth time by the nation's best, SMU’s Sammy Walker. For the first time in conference history, three men threw the shot over 60-feet in the meet. Rice’s Ken Stadel set a new mark in the discus beating the mark set by A&M’s Randy Mat- son in 1965 with a heave of 202- 11. Stadel holds the national best with 209-2. High point man in the meet was Houston’s Wayne Johnson who won both the 100 and 220-yard dash events and anchored the Cougars fifth place sprint relay team. Johnson’s two champion ships were the first in conference competition as this was the first year of conference eligibility. A&M will now travel to Wichi ta, Kansas to compete in the Na tional Federation meet to warm up for the national meet to be held in Baton Rouge, La., June 18-19.

They mark the end of one way of life and imply the begin ning of another. But ten years from now, where will this diploma be and what will it mean? Will it be packed away in an attic trunk . . . framed on the wall of a room or office? Will it have been thrown out by accident or cast into a seldom-noticed corner? And what of the hopes and dreams that go with it? What will have happened to them ? Who knows? There is no set answer to life, no single solution to all its problems. Nor can anyone live life alone. Whether your diploma is still crisp or has gotten dusty— whether your dreams are still bright or have become slight ly tarnished—forget about personal ambition as the sole answer to everything. Think of your own immortal soul. Go to church, and talk to God about it, through prayer.
