Maroon kills White, 69-0
By MIKE BRUTON
Sports Editor
With an unusually strong passing
game, devastating running and a
stiff defense the Maroon team
blasted the Whites 69-0 in Texas
A&M’s annual spring football game,
Saturday at Kyle Field.
Coach Emory Bellard said he was
pleased with the performance of the
Maroon squad and the improve
ment of several individuals on the
White team as he termed the spring
session as the best we’ve had since
I’ve been at A&M.”
Bellard should be pleased as the
“new” Aggie offense, the I-Bone,
which was run almost flawlessly by
the Maroon unit picking up 689
yards including 287 via the airways.
The White offense running against
one of the best defenses in the coun
try had some outstanding plays.
The Aggie mentor was also tick
led to have a new kind of quarter
back problem. There are three
A&M quarterbacks, David Ship-
man, Mike Jay and David Walker,
who are performing well enough
that Bellard declined to name who
would win the starting job. In the
past it has sometimes been difficult
to find a quarterback at all. “We ll
name the No. 1 quarterback at a
later date,” said Bellard, who
showed his admiration of the unique
problem. “We re at the point where
we can choose for positive reasons
rather than negative,” he added.
All quarterbacks played well with
the first unit as they each en
gineered scoring drives. Shipman,
who ran the Maroons for almost
three quarters, ran for two touch
downs, passed for another and was
under the tee on two scoring drives.
Shipman finished the night with 92
yards on 20 carries showing tre
mendous strength as he continu
ously broke tackles. He also hit
eight of 13 passes for 183 yards in
cluding a beautiful pass and run
combo to flashy Carl Roaches for a
70-yard TD.
Jay directed three drives to
paydirt taking the final steps on two
himself. He passed twice connect
ing on both for one touchdown and
again, Roaches was the man on the
receiving end. Jay did a fine job of
executing the option as he gained 45
yards in nine trips.
Walker, last year’s field general,
joined the Maroon squad with a lit
tle less than six minutes left to go in
the game and still led the team ac
ross the goal line twice. On his first
snap with the Maroon team Walker
dropped back and found Roaches at
the 8-yard line for a 24-yard comple
tion. Bucky Sams added the finish
ing touches with a 4-yard run after
an offsides penalty on the Whites.
Two minutes and 45 seconds later
Walker spotted tight end Richard
Osborne who had split the safeties
and threw a strike that resulted in a
49-yard TD.
Not only the quarterbacks shined
as All-SWC halfback Bubba Bean
ran wild gaining 174 yards in 18
tries. Bean resembled O. J. Simp
son when he was at USC, running
from tailback out of the “I” picking
his holes with perfection. Skip
Walker collected 58 yards carrying
the pigskin only ten times.

White squad’s running attack with
61 yards in 15 totes.
Defensively the Aggies were
strong as usual with the Maroon unit
allowing 66 yards total offense. The
White defense, obviously outman-
ned, had several individuals who
did a commendable job. Linebacker
Garth Ten Napel led the Maroon
charge getting on on ten tackles and
Edgar Fields barricaded the middle
well as he was involved in seven
collisions. All-American Pet
Thomas drew a murmur from the
crowd of about 12,000 when he
went through a block to upset Craig
for a 4-yard loss on a sweep. Others
performing well on the first defense
were; Blake Schwarz, Tank Mar
shall, and All-American Ed Simo-
nini.
Jesse Hunnicutt looked good for
the Whites as he was in on numer
ous tackles. Charles Bell also played
an admirable game for the White-
clad squad.
Throughout the game the offen
sive linemen, especially on^phe
Maroon team, opened gaping cre
vices in the defensive fronts. Much
of the 689 yards gained by the first
offense should be credited to them.
The Maroon line included; Dennis
Swilley, Glen Bujnoch, Craig
Glendenning, Bruce Welch and
Henry Tracey.
Roaches has his finest pass receiv
ing game since the LSU game of
1973 when he caught seven aerials
for 156 yards and a TD. The little
fuel-injected split end pulled in five
passes for 140 yards and two TDs in
Saturday night’s game. Osborne
gathered in three passes for 94 yards
and one score. Skip Walker, who
lines up at flanker when the
I-formation is employed, caught
three passes for 42 yards.
