The Ag gies are first in passing offense, second in total offense, third in rushing defense and rushing of fense, and fourth in passing de fense and total defense. To counter the Aggies’ passing, Tech has the SWC’s second-rated pass defense allowing only 81.3 yards a game. A&M is averag ing 135.8 yards per outing. Tech coach Jim Carlen has never lost to A&M and the Red Raiders are holding a five-game winning streak over the Aggies. It’s a sure bet Tech would like nothing more than to see the streak advanced to six. Attempting to halt the Red Raiders’ streak is an Aggie team that sputtered through its first three games and suddenly started humming against Clemson last weekend. The Aggies were so overpower ing they prompted Clemson coach Red Parker to say: “We got beat by a team that just out-blocked and out-tackled us.

Our natural tendency is to assume a child is small and his feelings are just “miniatures” of our own. To the contrary, many childhood emotions are more intense than anything we feel . . . stronger be cause the child hasn’t yet learned to understand and curb his feel ings. This is the ideal time to begin religious education. Then a child’s understanding of himself grows with his perception of spiritual values. Sunday morning in church is the high point in thousands of “little lives.” Things that aren’t going too well have a way of straightening out when you’re grasping the cen tral truth of Christianity: JESUS LOVES ME!

BRYAN I HARDWARE • CHINAWARE • CRYSTAL • GIFTS Student Publications The Exchange Store ‘Serving Texas Aggies” so big we couldn’t get anything done offensively or defensively. They have so much speed. Man, they’re something. Don’t sell that team short.” While making that statement, Parker must have had one Aggie specifically in mind. He would have to be halfback Bubba Bean who had a field day against the Tigers, galloping for 204 yards on 22 carries, the best day in the SWC this season Named the Associated Press’ SWC Back of the Week, Bean is now the lead ing Aggie rusher and third in the conference with 338 yards on 44 carries for a 7..7 average. Bean is by no means alone in the backfield as the Aggies possess the finest two-deep back- field in the conference. Fullback Alvin Bowers and halfbacks Skip Walker and Ronnie Hubby have all rushed a considerable number of times and all have better than five yards a carry average. Wait ing in reserve are Bucky Sams and freshman Donnie Clemons. Sams rewrote the freshman rush ing section of the record book as the fullback for last year’s fish team but a summer injury has kept him from attaining full speed this year. Mike Jay has apparently re covered from his early season jitters and settled down to a controlled performance, directing the Aggies to the win over Clem son. Jay is leading the confer ence in total offense averaging 155.0 yards per game. A&M boasts a pair of the SWC’s finest pass catchers in wide receiver Carl Roaches and tight end Richard Osborne. Os borne's 12 catches is the largest reception total of anyone in the conference. Both teams’ kickoffs should be interesting as Roaches is the number two kickoff returner in the conference while Tech’s Laurence Williams is currently rated third. Williams was the top kick returner in the nation last year while Roaches finished fourth. Coach Emory Bellard gave his greatest praise to the offensive line for the victory over Clemson. Leading the line is captain Ricky Seeker at center with Glenn Bujnoch and Dennis Smelser at tackles and Bruce Welch at left guard. The other guard position is occupied by Billy Lemons who took over from senior Bud Tram mell when Trammell was injured two weeks ago. Trammell is back and ready to play but may have trouble regaining the starting post as the ambitious freshman seems to have taken a liking to it himself. The Aggies’ defensive line is severely hampered by injury with defensive end Blake Schwartz definitely out and defensive tackles Warren Trahan and Terry Willis playing at less than full strength. Ends Don Long, Paul Hulin and Tank Marshall and tackles Ted Lamp and Jimmy Dean remain healthy for A&M. Ed Simonini leads Garth Ten Napel and Kenny Stratton in the linebacker squad with reserves John Paul McCrumbly and Lester Hayes sure to see playing time. Pat Thomas and Tim Gray are the cornerbacks for A&M while James Daniels and Larry Ellis are the Aggie safeties. BATT PICKS GAMES Guest Picker Rod Speer Ted Boriskie Kevin Coffey T. C.

L. Luther Basketball Practice Opens ’73-’74 Campaign Starts Monday A&M basketball coach Shelby Metcalf will welcome 15 players Monday when practice begins for the 1973-74 season. Among the candidates will be six lettermen from last year’s 17-9 squad which finished in a tie for second place in the South west Conference with a 9-5 rec ord. There are also one letter- man who sat out last year, one squadman, one redshirt, four transfers and two freshmen. “I’m really excited about this year’s team,” Metcalf said. “This is basically a junior team, but 24 YEARS EXPERIENCE! Tune ups, brake jobs, valve jobs, motor replacement — entire range of automotive needs for your car! State Inspection Station DISCOUNTS AVAILABLE ROBESON MOTOR 724 N. Main, 822-2622 we have some speed and some talent.” Leading the returnees are 6-6 senior Randy Knowles and 5-10 junior Mike Floyd. Knowles was the leading scorer and No. 2 re bounder last year and should rank among the all-time Aggie leaders in both categories by the end of the season. Metcalf calls Floyd “the finest guard in my 15 years at A&M.” The other lettermen are post men Cedric Joseph and Jerry Mercer, who shared starting duties last year as sophomores, senior Joe Arciniega, junior Webb Williams and senior Charlie Jenkins. Jenkins earned two let ters before missing last season to concentrate on baseball. Other candidates include 6-8 senior C. W. Guthrie, who missed most of last season with mono nucleosis, redshirt sophomore Dale Donaldson, junior transfers John Thornton and Bruce Ott, sopho more transfers Ray Roberts and Steve Chambers, and freshmen Mike Johnson and Leroy Baer- wald. In addition to assistant coach Jim Culpepper, Metcalf will be aided by former Aggie standout Bob Gobin and former Texas Tech star Norman Reuther. The captains of this year’s team are Knowles and Arciniega. The Aggies open the season Nov. 30 against Houston Baptist College in G. Rollie White Coli seum. There are 12 home con tests on the schedule plus appear ances in three tournaments—the Marshall Invitational in Hunt ington, W.Va., the Pan American Classic in Edinburg, and the Bluebonnet Classic in Houston.
