"Wichita has an exceptionally fine defensive team,” Bellard said Tuesday. “They have size, speed, quickness and experience. Pro scouts I’ve talked to have said they Srd looking at three players on Wichita’s defense. Since our experience is practically nil, I’d say we have our work cutout for us. “We’re about as opposite as teams can get. They have seniors and experience; we have fresh men and inexperience. They have strong indications on how their players will perform under pres sure; we have no idea on what HARRY DISHMAN Sales & Service 603 Texas Ave. C.S. across from campus — 816-3316 a rs ) SEGAL Bros.' 11 reeled filmed ENROLL NOW STARTING TUESDAY, SEPT. 18 McKenzie-Baldwin Business College Excellent positions are waiting for secretaries, accountants, IBM keypunch operators, and other capable, well-trained office assistants. 702 S.

If we play up to our potential we can be a threat to most anybody.” Bellard said sophomore Mike Jay will start at quarterback. “Mike has been throwing ex ceptionally well and with discre tion,” Bellard said. “In the scrimmages we’ve had, he has hit 60 per cent of his passes with no interceptions.” “We’ll throw more but not just for the purpose of throwing. We’ll try to put ourselves into more situations where we have a pass option and can use our dis cretion. We will use the pass as an offensive weapon this year.” Jay will be backed up by fresh man David Walker and senior Tim Trimmier. Freshman David Shipman has a slight knee sprain but is expected to suit up for the game. Bellard stuck by Jay when asked if he would take him out if he got into trouble in the game. “As of right now Jay is our starting quarterback,” he said. “We’ll treat him just like any No. 1 quarterback.” Bellard plans to use his backs as a shuttle system to carry plays to the quarterback. Bellard said he hopes to have Jay call most of the plays himself but for the time being, the shuttle system will remain in effect. “One of the things we need more than anything is to stay healthy and be able to work to gether as a unit,” Bellard said. A crowd of 35,000 is expected for the game. TCI/ Two freshmen prospects got a chance to work with the Texas Christian varsity Tuesday. Horned Frog Coach Billy Tohill said offensive linemen Jerry Cail- lier of West Orange and Scott O’glee of Denison practiced with the upperclassmen. Tohill said they had yet to be added to the varsity roster. “We’re looking at them funda mentally this week to see if it appears they could help us,” To hill said. “Then we’ll decide something.” Sophomore quarterback Bill Walters of Garland suffered a broken ankle during practice Tuesday. Drag Races Set Sunday at TWS Texas World Speedway will host its third drag race Sunday. Gates will open at 9 a.m. with time trials beginning at 10 and eliminations at 2 p.m. Student tickets for the event will cost $2 with a student I.D. at the gate. Otherwise, adult tickets will cost $3 and children under twelve will be admitted free. All pit passes will cost $1 above the general admission cost. Racers will compete in Modi fied Eliminator, Super Stock Eliminator, and E. T. Brackets for a total $2,400 purse. “The Pro Anglia class is ex tremely popular from a specta tors viewpoint,” said John Adam, drag race director. “The short wheel base and the poor aerody namic design of the cars make them the most dangerous cars and the most exciting class to watch.

Class C: Dunn over Utay on penetration; Davis-Ga- ry over Moore, 6-2. “Popular co-driver races will give drivers a chance to race with dates or friends in the passenger seat,” said Adams. “The 1/8 mile strip at the speedway makes driver skill an important aspect of the race,” explained Adams, a racer him self. “With a 1/4 mile track the man with the most money to put into his car will win 9 out of 10 times because he can build the faster car.” The race will be crucial in de termining the future of drag races at the speedway, according to Adams. “We hope for a large turnout so we can continue the program,” explained Adams. Adams feels that the drag races are a service to the com munity because of their enter tainment value and the legal out let they provide for people who enjoy racing their cars. Carlson Quits CHICAGO—Robert Carlson an nounced his resignation Thursday as commissioner of the American Basketball Association at a meet ing of the league’s trustees. Carlson, who succeeded Jack Dolph as ABA commissioner in July 1972, said he will return to his law practice. SMU Southern Methodist University Coach Dave Smith sent his squad through a 90-minute workout Tuesday and said the Mustang practice was the best of the year. “That doesn’t mean we’ll play good Saturday,” Smith said. “But we did a lot of things good today.” Smith’s spirits were lifted somewhat when split end Kenny Harrison participated in the workouts for the first time. Har rison underwent knee surgery this summer. “I was glad to see Kenny out there. He’s not cutting yet, but he’s doing what he can.” Smith said SMU will work hard again Wednesday then begin to slack off Thursday and Friday for Saturday’s opener against Santa Clara in Texas stadium.
