The inconsistent Dallas Cowboys travel to Houston to take on the Oil ers Sunday and the Aggies travel to Austin to play the University of Texas Friday. Baylor is still in the running for the Southwest Confer ence Championship, but it’s hard to think of the Bears after the Ags ran over them, 20-0. A game between the Oilers and the Cowboys has taken on new meaning this season as the Oilers are currently on a four game win ning streak and the Cowboys are not playing as they have in past seasons. Both have 5-5 records. It’s amazing how many fans from Texas seem to be rooting for the Washington Redskins these days. And you don’t have to be a psychol ogy major to figure out why. A number of years ago there was such a thing as an avid Houston Oiler fan. But due to a number of terrible seasons, different coaches and no winning attitude the Oiler fans slowly drifted away. Most true Oiler fans do not like the Cowboys. I speak from experi ence. So when the Oilers couldn’t get it together for what seems like forever, most fans switched in terests to another team. But not to the Dallas Cowboys. And since the Redskins seemed to whip the Cowboys pretty regu larly (last weekend being the latest triumph), the Oiler fans could switch loyalties and watch the Cow boys go down the tube in style. A double victory for ex-Oiler fans and Cowboy haters. But now Oiler fans are crawling out of the woodwork. Everybody seems to be saying “Oh, I’ve always been an Oiler fan.” With this Sunday s game being sold out and the largest football crowd ever expected for the As trodome, the Oilers must be doing something right. Winning. The Aggies are another team coming back after a few dry years. Especially against the seemingly unbeatable king of college football in the Lone Star State, TU. The Texas A&M-Texas game has always been a big one, even when the outcome was meaningless but for school pride. This year the game means a trip to the Cotton Bowl for the Aggies or maybe no bowl game at all. And a victory for Texas could put them back in the Cotton Bowl for the seventh consecutive time. The Baylor Bears have put their paw into the conference race and have a chance for a trip to the Cotton Bowl. They even held a pep rally for Texas hoping that A&M will lose. The Aggies must lose for the Bears to have a chance for the big howl game in Dallas. So the big week is here. And the underdogs have suddenly come from some bad years to finally give some strong competition for the kings ofTexas football. But competi tion doesn’t necessarily mean a sure victory. Ag wrestlers start season with wins Houston tourney title evades Ag ruggers The Rugby team failed to defend its c/iampxonsh/'p in the Lane Star Invitational in Houston this past weekend. The Ags lost to the Dallas Harlequins 12-6 in the quarterfinal 4-milers run a muddy 6th The Texas A&M cross country team placed sixth in the four-mile SWC Cross Country Meet held last Monday at a muddy Roman Forest in New Caney. Charles Cottle was the first A&M runner to finish, running an excel- lent 19:57 for the 17th place. The remaining A&M runners scoring points were Jacob Yemme, finishing 33rd in 20:37, Danny Jones turning in a 20:38 for the 34th and his best time of the season, Jimmy Sheffield, getting 43rd with a 21:06, and David Gillette, running a 21:10 for 44th place. The team total was 170 points. Arkansas, with its stable of Irish and English runners, easily cap tured the team championship with 30 points to 61 for runner-up Rice. Rice’s Jeff'Wells won the individual title for the second straight year with the winning title of 19:12. Based on their victory in the Dis trict 6 Cross Country Meet Nov. 9, Arkansas will be the only team ad vancing to the NCAA Meet, where they will compete against conten ders Oregon, Oklahoma State, UTEP, and Tennessee. There is no individual favorite due to the gradu ation of 4-time winner Steve Prefon- taine of Oregon. round after a rugged schedule. The side beat Galveston 15-0 in the first round and slipped past Minneapolis 9-6 in the second. Team spokesman Hillard Sim mons said, “we wanna bitch. We had to play three games Saturday and the last was against the Harle quins. We had only an hour’s rest and they were fresh.” The team is now 7-3 on the sea son. The second team lost their first match to the Houston Strikers 16-6. They topped LSU 25-0 in the first round of the consolation bracket and defeated Corpus Christi 3-0 to win the bracket. The second team is 5-2 for the season. The next match for both teams will be here on the drill field, Satur day. The second team will take on the second team from the Baylor Medical Branch at 1:30 p.m. im mediately followed by the first team game. By ROBERT CESSNA Staff Sports Writer The A&M Wrestling team came home from a road trip with two wins in their pocket. At noon the Aggie wrestlers traveled to Richland Community College in Dallas where they pulled out a 26-21 victory. They then traveled to North Texas State University for a 6 p.m. match. A&M won their second match of the day defeating North Texas State, 30-12. Frank Cox the Aggie’s state champion in the 118 pound class could place no better than even for the day. At Richland he got soundly decisioned by Randy Perez, 11-0. He came hack at North Texas State to decision David Kreuger, 7-1. Jim Giunta, the defending state champ in the 134 pound class had a rough time gaining two decisions. At Richland he decisioned Brian Yeskavich, 8-6 then decisioned Charles Ferguson, 5-2, at North Texas State. Mark Monhollon in the 142 pound class pinned Dave Manning at Richland then decisioned Steve Zeringue, 1D8 at North Texas State. Ag Jud Dudley in the 167 pound class came home with two pins to his credit. Dudley was losing badly at Richland when his opponent, Tim Blankenship slipped and let himself be pinned. Jerry Rasmussen in the 177 pound category finished with a deci sion and a forfeit.

At North Texas State he wrestled in the unlimited class and was decisioned by John Kancikstadt, 2-1. This was Coach Bill Kahler’s team’s first duel meet of the year. Last year they had three state champions with Frank Cox, Jim Giunta, and John Manning. The 30-man squad is shooting for its fourth straight state champion ship. Their next match will he against the University ofTexas at G. Rollie White Coliseum, Nov. 25 at 7:30. The following is a scoring sum mary of the matches. In wrestling, if you decision your man by less than 10 points you get three team points. If you decision by more than 10 points you earn four team points. A pin and forfeit are worth six each while a draw gains two points.
