Harriers head for tough competition
Ags test 1-0 record
By PAUL McGRATH
Battalion Sports Writer
The nine-man travel squad of
Coach Charles Thomas cross coun
try team is Houston-bound this
weekend to run in a four team meet
at Strake Jesuit High School.
This is the Aggies second contest
of the year, after winning the LSU
Invitational two weeks ago.
A&M will go against stiff competi
tion with Rice, the University of
Houston and the University of
Texas forming the opposition.
The Aggie distance men have al
ready faced Houston at LSU while
[hey are meeting the other two
schools for the first time. As in
Louisiana, the Jesuit course covers
Four miles of terrain.
This is going to he a tough meet
because everybody’s good, said
Thomas.
The Owls have the reigning
Southwest Cross Country champ on
their roster in the personage of Jeff
Wells. Wells, fourth in the NCAA
three-mile last year, has already had
an under 18 minute time for the
four-mile event, superb for this
early in the season. Thomas refers to
Wells as being “in the cream of the
crop.
Rice also has a top-flight per
former in John Lodwick. Lodwick is
known for getting off to fast starts in
the season but then tends to tail off .
Stellar Owl freshman Mike Novelli
will not run this week.
According to A&M assistant
coach Ted Nelson, ‘‘Texas is
loaded. Leading the talented
Horns is premier miler John
Fischer.
BEG YOUR PARDON
The Battalion sports department
in the story following A&M s 43-13
rout of Illinois made an error in stat
ing that Richard Osborne scored his
first collegiate touchdown in that
game. It was, in fact, Osborne’s first
touchdown since he was a freshman.
In 1972, Osborne caught a
touchdown pass against Rice in a
20-14 loss for his only other college
career TD.
Osborne is now only the fourth
Aggie ever to cross the 1,000 yard'
mark in career receiving with 1,004
and needs only 14 more yards to
surpass Tommy Maxwell on the all-
time list. Homer May is 71 yards
away, and Bob Long and Barney
Harris are tied for the lead with
1,298 each.
Osborne also garnered sole pos
session of third place for number of
receptions with the TD reception,
having moved out of a tie with Dude
McLean. Osborne is 18 catches
away from taking over first.

The Cougars are fresh off a meet
victory 7 last weekend in which all
seven of their runners placed in the
top 15 spots.
The A&M squad consists of Bruce
Smith, Paul Cottle, Kyle Hefner,
Manfred Kohrs, Jacob Yemme,
Lance Mitchell and Walter
Jachimowicz, the latter two being
freshmen. Two other runners will
accompany the team and will run for
practice, not for points.
“The cross country team has been
doing real well,’ said Thomas.
“We’ve had them running the hills
out at the Brazos River and running
a six-mile course to get them all
practicing to stay' together.
“Mitchell and Jachimowicz, our
two freshmen, have really been
working hard and should be fine
runners once they 7 get some experi
ence and maturity behind them.
“Cottle and Hefner have been
putting in 12 to 15 miles a day, so
they’ve been working pretty hard.
Kohrs feels that in a week he will be
ready to move up and do better
times, Thomas said.
TSpTnamLa
Smith had the fastest time for the
Ags at LSU, finishing second in in
dividual competition. However, he
has been suffering from a cold re
cently which caused him to miss
several workouts. He will be in un
iform though come Saturday, said
Thomas.
The Aggie coach has had some
worries about Yemme because he is
“so fragile, he’s just skin and bone.
Yemme has usually started strong
but then would develop some prob
lem with injuries or sickness.
Thomas says they are not pushing
Yemme as hard now so that he will
be able to keep going.
Thomas hopes to qualify his
squad for the six mile NCAA meet
held in late November. Only four
teams are chosen to represent Dis
trict 6, which includes Texas,
Louisiana and Arkansas schools.
Along with the four teams, eight in
dividual athletes may participate.
Next week the Aggie harriers
travel to Arlington to compete in a
five mile contest.

M-l rallied after losing their
first game in Flag Football and
slipped by D-2, 13-6.
D-2 got on the board in the
first half with Don Royder scor
ing on a long yardage play to
give them the edge leading into
the second half 6-0.
The second half was plagued
with penalties as rough play was
prevalent. Alert defense on
both sides was apparent with
the ball changing hands on in
terceptions and fumbles. M-l
was able to capitalize on a tur
nover to score on a pass play
from John Mosser to Keith
Williams. M-l failed to convert
on the point after attempt.
John Mosser again com
pleted a pass to Bill Barnes late
- •
In photo at above left, John Mosser of M-l, throws a pass to
a teammate. Passing and pass interceptions were a very
important aspect of this hard fought game between two rival
corps teams, M-l and D-2. M-l won the contest, 13-6. In photo
below, Don Royder, quarterback and punter for D-2, gets off a
punt with fourth down and long yardage. Under IM rules, there
is no rushing the kicker, and both offensive and defensive
linemen must remain on one knee until the kick is away.

in the final period for a
touchdown. The conversion
was good from Mosser to Val |
Cadena. This left M-l with a
comfortable 13-6 lead which
proved to be the final outcome.
