aim No.1 defense,team
By DAVID WALKER
While some football fans around
the nation are trying to pick this
year’s number one football team,
there are two Texas Aggies who are
ready to help them make up their
mind.
Jackie Williams and Pat Thomas,
the returning half of last year’s
number two pass defense in the na
tion, agree that the Aggies of 1975
will be stronger than the 1974 edi
tion.
“There isn’t any sense in me lying
to you, I think we ll win the national
championship. That’s straight from
what I feel inside, said Williams,
5-11, 176 pounder from Plano.

PAT THOMAS
All-America cornerback Thomas
was quick to agree with Williams.
“That’s right, it’s just a matter of us
doing what we are capable of doing.
It’s not going to be easy, but we can
do it.’’
Thomas, the first Aggie first team
All-American since Dave Elmen-
dorf in 1970, also added, “It’s really
simple, we just have to do what we
are supposed to do and do it to the
best of our ability.”
The Aggie pass defense was
number two in the nation last year
but Williams and Thomas feel that
the extra year of experience will
make them even stronger.
“Telling the truth, we had a good
pass defense last year, but with us
having an extra year of experience
we’ve just got to do better this
year,” Thomas said.
Thomas was elected an All-
America last year and has already
been named to various pre-season
All-America polls.
Thomas gives Williams most of
the credit for calling the defensive
shots on the field. “Jackie is good at
picking those things up. He’s the
quickest one at changing plays,”
said Thomas.
While each man praised the other
they both agreed that neither of
them could do the job if it wasn’t for
the rest of the secondary and the
entire defense.
“We just have great communica
tion among us,” Thomas said. “I
think the fact that we all know each
other so good really helps.”
Aggie assistant head coach and
defensive coordinator Melvin
Robertson is pleased to have the
first cousins playing on his side.
“Pound for pound, Pat is the best
athlete I’ve ever coached,
Robertson said. (Robertson has
eight of his former pupils in the pro
ranks).
He describes Williams as “tough
and an excellent tackier . . . he’s have the number one pass defense
just the ideal free safety.” in the country. They missed it by
Last year Pat Thomas and Jackie one place. This year when they say
Williams said they were going to it no one is going to doubt them.

Okie computer cheaters
nabbed before season
Associated Press
NORMAN, Okla. - Between 50
and 100 University of Oklahoma
students used fake computer cards
to obtain OU football tickets, uni
versity officials revealed Tuesday.
Harold Ray, associate vice presi
dent of the university community,
said the university has the names of
students on the fake cards and will
retrieve the tickets from them.
They said procedures are being
tightened and students who used
the fake cards will be subject to dis
ciplinary action for falsification of
administrative records.
Jack Stout, university community
associate vice president, said the ac
tion could include suspension or
disciplinary probation, depending
upon the degree of violation.
A new ticket system was devised
this year to distribute tickets to stu
dents. Each student was given a
computer card bearing his name
and the date on which he could
purchase a ticket. Priority was
based on the number of credit hours
earned at OU.
The computer card and student
identification must be presented at
the time of purchase and ticket offi
cials retain the computer card.
Ray said between 50 and 100 fake
computer cards were turned in for
tickets on Monday before being dis
covered. He said that since the fake
cards were detected the ticket sel
lers are checking each computer
card.
“They’re picking them up easier
now,” he said.

The calculations you face require no less.
Today, even so-called ff non-technical” courses
(psych, soc, bus ad, to name 3) require a vari
ety of technical calculations—complicated cal
culations that become a whole lot easier when
you have a powerful pocket calculator.
Not surprisingly, there are quite a few such
calculators around, but ours stand apart, and
ahead. We started it all when we introduced the
world’s first scientific pocket calculator back in
1972, and we’ve shown the way ever since.
The calculators you see here are our newest,
the first of our second generation. Both offer you
technology you probably won’t find in compet
itive calculators for some time to come, if ever.
Our HP-21 performs all arithmetic, log and
trig calculations, including rectangular/polar
conversions and common antilog evaluations.
It’s display is fully formatted, so you can choose
between fixed decimal and scientific notation.
Our HP-95 does all that—and much, much
more. It’s programmable, which means it can
solve automatically the countless repetitive
problems every science and engineering student
faces.
With an HP-95, you enter the keystrokes
necessary to solve the problem only once.
Thereafter, you just enter the variables and
press the Run/Stop key for an almost instant
answer accurate to 10 digits.
Before you invest in a lesser machine, by all
means do two things: ask your instructors
about the calculations their courses require; and
see for yourself how effortlessly our calculators
handle them.
Both the HP-91 and HP-95 are almost
certainly on display at your bookstore. If not,
call us, toll-free, at 800-538-7929 (in Calif.
800-669-9869) for the name of an HP dealer
near you.
