COLLEGE 822-0146 McDonald McDonald's i® INTRAMURAL HIGHLIGHTS McDonald's i® Game of the Week Dexter Jets Take Vet II , 44-0 m ^ flSil Iff * # - ' . i by ROBERT CESSNA Anchors away and set sail was the motto of the Dexter Jets as they trounced Vet I by the score of, 44-0. Both teams had entered the con test with two wins and no losses. But the game was not a reflection of two Watch & Enter unblemished teams as the Jets com pletely dominated the game. With a defense that made Vet quarterbacks scrample- the Jets have given up only 12 points in three games. On Offense QB Bobby Jones was given enough protection by his line that Volleyists, Swimmers Get Into Intramural Act Racket Sports entangle Intramural participants Racket play began this week in the In tramural arena. Tennis and badminton again demonstrated the growth the Intramural program is ex periencing. Both sports have increased the number of participants by 25-45 per cent. The games are played on the University tennis courts from 5-7 p. m., Monday through Thursday. The courts are closed to non intramural play during these hours. Badminton is played in the Coliseum An nexes at 6 p.m. Monday through Thursday. These two games are played both as singles and doubles events. Both approach the object of the game simularly, that is getting some object over the net by hitting it with a racket, but the simularity ends there. Badminton is considered a fairly non- strenuous game, although it does consist of some running around. The court is smaller than the tennis court and the force of play is much reduced by the use of the birdie. The arm action is different in that the badminton net is off the ground, hung like a volleyball net. Tennis is considered one of the “jet-set” sports, but is rapidly becoming one of the major individual sports of the world. Ameri cans are re-discovering the excitement of the game through personal experience. The game requires a great deal of running, and constant movement with a strain put on the player’s arms in combat with the ball. Both games at A&M are offered in the Health and Physical Education Department and most of this year’s players in badminton especially are playing their first competition. The number of participants is greater, but there’s room for more people who just want to get out of the Academic world for a while and do something fun to improve their health. The Corps led all entries with most, units entering both upperclassmen and fish in ap propriate divisions. The dorm competition is scarce as is the recreational, independent, club and Next week is the individuals chance to shine in the In tramural field as swimming, and field goal kicking begin competi tion. Swimming scheduled to last four nights, Monday and Tues day of next week and the follow ing Monday and Tuesday, will be held in the natatorium. Last year, Kruegar took women’s, Sq.9 took Military, C2 took Fish, and the All-University Champ was White Hall. The field goal kicking pre liminaries will be on field ETV, located behind Kyle Field within the fence, at 5:15 p.m. Thursday. Last year’s kick-off during the All-University Championship Game gave the crown to Mitch Barker. Volleyball entries close Tues day with play commencing the following Monday. Golf singles also close — with the tourney to be played October 27 beginning at 7:30 a. m. Bowling continues to wind its way toward the championship. An important meeting for all team managers, those people who organize and enter teams, will be held at 5 p. m. Tuesday in Room 232 of G. Rollie White. he could have grown a beard. The first time the Jets got the ball they drove to the Vet II where they were faced with a fourth down. Bobby Jones calmly picked Doug Kirkland cutting across the endzone for six points. A pass to Tracy Mid dleton was good for the extra point and it was off to the races at 7-0. An interception by George Fan- guy put the Jets in business again. From here it was a 50 yard bomb from Jones to Middleton and it was 13-0. The next time the Jets got their hands on the ball, the Vets blitzed but Jones read and dropped a screen off to Jim Pearce good for 35 yards. From here Jones ran for 15 and then hit Kirkland for a touchdown. The extra point was a pass to Middleton and it was 20-0 with two and half minutes left in the half. The Jets were not down however as Ronnie Brian stopped a Vet drive with an interception. From the fifty with time running out Jones went long to Kirkland for another bomb. Middleton added two points on reverse and the half ended with lit score, 28-0. In the second half the Jetsaddei two touchdowns and seemed to east off, thankfully, and enjoy the and win.
