Busy week finds Baylor, Texas here for matched
The A&M tennis team, playing
enlightened tennis, demolished
TCU 7-0 to up its SWC record to
16-19.
Behind the strong effort of
three upperclassment and two
freshmen, the team romped to the
victory without losing a sin
gle set.
Coach Omar Smith was delight
ed. “The guys played great. Tut
Bartzen (TCU coach) said A&M
looked better than anyone else
they’ve played this year.”
In the top singles match Bill
Wright defeated TCU’s John Pop-
pell, 6-2, 6-1.
Dan Courson knocked off Jim
Hansen, 6-0, 7-5, while Bill Hoo
ver beat Jack Irvine, 6-1, 6-3.
Freshmen Charles Emley and
Tom Courson beat Tom Harris,
6-2, 6-1, and Max Falls, 6-4, 7-6.
In doubles, Dan Courson and
Hoover downed Poppell and Ir
vine, 6-3, 6-1.
In the second match, Smith not
ed that Wright and Emley “really
played well” in defeating TCU’s
Falls and Harris 6-0, 6-2.

The Ags just back from a long
roadtrip to Oklahoma and Dallas,
left two top players at home for
a rest, then continued on to Aus
tin to compete in the Texas Re
lays tourney.
Dan Courson and Emley were
left in College Station while the
rest of the regular team went to
the tourney.
Four teams were entered;
fourth-ranked Houston and sev
enth-ranked Trinity, both of
whom have beaten A&M in dual
matches, tied for first with 18
points, while A&M tied 11th-
ranked Texas for second with 16
points.
Assistant coach Richard Bark
er said, “We just didn’t win
enough close matches.” Barker
noted that Dan Courson’s and
Emley’s non-presence might have
hurt team standings but that they
needed a rest and “We wanted to
give the younger players a chance
to play.”
No. 2 player Hoover beat Tex
as freshman, Stewart Keller, who
has “a fine record and a fine
reputation,” to highlight the top
matches.
Barker noted that the fresh
men, who played higher than ac
customed, “played extremely
well.”
Tom Courson split the first sets
with Texas’ Graham Whaling but
lost the close third set. In anoth
er match, Courson lost to John
Burrman who plays No. 1 for the
highly-ranked Trinity netters.
Mark Silberman played very
well against Houston All-Ameri
can Dale Ogden but lost 6-3, 7-6.
Silberman also played very well
against Trinity’s David King los
ing 6-3, 6-4. King and Silberman
played each other in the Trinity-
A&M dual match earlier in the
season and Silberman lost that
match 6-0, 6-0.
★ ★ ★
A&M played Wisconsin today
at the varsity courts and will host
Baylor on Thursday and Texas
on Saturday.
Smith is very optimistic about
the Aggies chances. “If we should
beat Texas and Baylor, 7-0, we
should finish third. It’s not going
to be easy, it’s a long uphill
climb.
“Texas has only beaten us once
in 12 years and we’ll be keeping
that in mind.”

The DIRECTOR'S FILM SERIES presents a film by LUIS BUNUEL
TRISTANA
With Catherine Deneuve,
Fernando Rey, Franco Nero
Vincent Canby called TRISTANA "nothing
less than the quintessential Bunuel film
of all time." A haunting and exquisitely
photographed work, TRISTANA stars
Catherine Deneuve as a young and
innocent orphan who moves into the
house of Don Lope, her aging, corrupt
guardian. An aristocratic free-thinker,
Don Lope opposes authority and
champions hedonism. Although he tries
to be fatherly toward Tristana, her beauty
overwhelms him, and he seduces her.
Tristana willingly becomes his mistress,
and begins to practice the corrupt,
perverse way of life he has preached.
"VIRIDIANA is his undoubted masterpiece,
but TRISTANA is more pure and more
consistent, less ambiguous and more
complex . . practically perfect symmetry
... a marvelously funny and vigorously
moral movie .. . his most perfectly cast
film ... the physical production, with color
photography by Jose Aguayo, is
uncommonly handsome, and its story is
the work of an old master."

Another MSC activity of the AGGIE CINEMA
Quarterback David Shipman,
freshman from Odessa Permian,
saw; his first contact duty of
spring training Tuesday as the
Texas Aggies entered their next-
to-last week of football practice.
In a 15-minute session running
the second unit, Shipman was a
bit rusty and fumbled some but
backfield coach Chuck Moser said
he wasn’t surprised. “I knew he
was nervous and the fumbling
didn’t surprise me. It’s better for
him to get this behind him now
than to wait until next August.
He’ll get better in a hurry, I
think.”
Shipman injured a knee in prac
tice last fall and later underwent
surgery. He has been running
plays this spring but Tuesday was
the first time he’d been in a scrim
mage.
The fumbling, too, could have
come from the fact that his center,
Rocco Wiest, was just returning
to duty after having been out
with a hurt knee. As Weist re
turned the other second-team cen
ter, Henry Tracy, was on the side
lines with a hurt knee received in
last Saturday’s scrimmage.
The first unit, with another
freshman, David Walker, at quar
terback, looked sharp in a
passing drill. The southpaw from
Sulphur, La., hit both tight end
Richard Osborne and split end
Carl Roaches with regularity.
Meanwhile, at the other end of
the field, the defense worked on
pass defense against pro set and
drop back passes. Defensive coor
dinator said the first two defen-

sive units looked sharp. “Of
course, we have all our people
back and it’s a carry-over from
last year but they were picking
up things very well.”
Comerback Pat Thomas had to
leave the drill with a back prob
lem. He’s having muscle spasms
after having hurt it in last Thurs
day’s drill.
The Aggies will practice against
Wednesday and Thursday and
then will stage another full-
scale scrimmage Saturday.
