Pa#e 6 THE BATTALION FRIDAY, APRIL 6, 1974 Aggie tracksters limp to LSU meet The A&M track squad limps into Baton Rouge for a dual meet against LSU Saturday, hoping not to injure anyone else before the big relay meets this month. The Aggie sprint corps is hit the hardest with the top three sprinters nursing injuries of some sort. Sammy Dierschke strained a groin muscle in the College Sta tion Relays two weeks ago but is expected to get back into action against the Tigers. What action he does see, however, will prob ably be confined to only running a leg of the mile relay to test himself before entering the more rigorous sprints. Charles Dawson, 1974 100-yard dash champion at the Border Olympics, tugged a hamstring last week and had to pull out of the 100 in the Dallas Invitational. Although still slightly sore, he is expected to compete Saturday. As if two successive weekends of injury to sprinters weren’t enough, 440-yard relay team lead- off man Gerald D’Ambrosio in- There’s no easy way for Charlie Nelson to become Dr. Nelson. But there is a way to make it somewhat easier. Our way. The Armed Forces Health Professions Scholarship Program. It won’t soften the demands of your professors, or those you make upon yourself —but it may free you from those financial problems which, understandably, can put a crimp in your concentration. If you qualify, our scholarship program will cover the costs of your medical education. More, you'll receive a good monthly allowance all through your schooling. But what happens after you graduate? Then, as a health care officer in the military branch of your choice you enter a professional environment that is challenging, stimulating and satisfying. An environment which keeps you in contact with practically all medical specialties. Which gives you the time to observe and learn before you decide on your specialty. Which may present the opportunity to train in that specialty. And to practice it. You may also find some of the most advanced medical achievements happening right where you work. Like at the Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, Texas, long noted for its Burn Treat ment Center. Or the home of Flight Medicine, the famed Aerospace Medical Division, also in San Antonio. Or the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland, recognized worldwide for its work in Medical Research. And if you’ve read this far, you may be interested in the details.

OUT-A-SITE SALADS CHEESECAKES The A&M football squad rests today in preparation for their first scrimmage of spring Satur day. Scheduled to get underway at 4 p.m., the scrimmage gives fans the first chance to get a look at the gridders that will form the core of the 1974 football team. It also affords head coach Emory Bellard his first opportunity to make a qualified judgement on the condition of next year’s squad, a privilege he has not enjoyed at A&M as freshmen have always played a bigger part in the fall than they are expected to next year. THE GREAT AMERICAN FOLK WINE GREAT AMERICAN POSTER OFFER. The starting units remain rela tively the same as they finished last year with only minor changes. Speedy Carl Roaches is still listed as No. 1 wide receiver but the flash from Houston Smiley is seeing additional duty at running back, a position he has not occu pied since high school. While Roaches is at running back, his split end position will be occupied by sophomore Mike Floyd. 1973 Southwest Conference De fensive Player of the Year Ed Simonini is recovering from in juries suffered in a non-contact accident earlier this season. Al though he feels he is ready to play, the Aggie coaches are tak ing no chances at further injury and his status remains undeter mined. The A&M tennis team, revital ized with a lineup shift, knocked off a strong North Texas State team yesterday, 7-2, and bounced back to winning form. The Aggies mastered five of the six singles matches and two of three doubles en route to the victory. In the first match Bill Wright defeated Mark Floyd on NTSU 6-3, 6-4. Senior Dan Courson beat the Meangreen’s Mark Walker, 6-3, 6-4, to up his season record to 13-3. Mark Silberman, the highest ranked of the shifted players, de feated Blake Avers, 6-4, 6-3. Tom Courson, playing No. 4 in stead of his former seventh spot, knocked off NTSU’s Jim John ston, 6-2, 6-3. Kermit Smith was re-activated for the match and has been wait ing out an injured leg. Jerry Garcia of NTSU broke serve to take a 6-4 win in the first set. Smith came back very strong to whip Garcia, 6-1, in the second set but could not hold on in the third as Garcia prevailed 6-4. Scooter McMeans took two straight tie-breakers to defeat George Villanueva in the sixth match. In the top doubles match Dan Courson and Silberman teamed to down Floyd and Garcia in split sets, 6-4, 3-6, 6-3. Wright and Smith defeated Walker and Avers, 6-3, 6-3 in the second match. Tom Courson and McMeans took the first set 6-2 over John ston and Villanueva, but the NT SU pair stormed back to the final two sets and the only NTSU doubles win, 6-2, 6-2.
