Water Polo
Ags blister Longhorns
By TONY GALLUCCI
Battalion Sports Editor
The Aggie water polo team pum-
meled the University of Texas
swimmers, 22-8, last night keeping
their record unblemished after 13
starts. The win gave Coach Dennis
Fosdick his twelfth win of the year
to one tie aind leaves him just five
short of 100 wins in his six year te
nure at A&M.
Bolstered by aggressive team
work, something which had been
lacking recently, the Ags made the
victory look as easy as their last
game with SMU was hard.
Don Reeser led Aggie scorers
with four goals, he also had two as
sists. Team captain Jim Yates added
three tallies and assisted on five
more. Blake Hinman also had three
goals and one assist. Bill Yates
scored two goals and had two assists.
Doug Adamson and Steve Moore
each had a single goal but Moore
added four assists and Adamson
added two. Oran Marksbury, and
Dennis Light had a goal and an as
sist apiece.
Mike Reilly, Don Wederman,
Bob Leland, Dave Meeh, Michael
Springer and Greg Meek each
added a goal. Tom Schwab, Steve
Spencer and Mike Vanderhurst
each had an assist.
Fosdick was pleased with play in
general. “Jim (Yates) played a good
game. And so did Blake (Hinman).
They were both out against SMU,
said Fosdick.
“We re still a bit sloppy. We re
getting used to playing everybody.
Our teamwork was all right, though

Davis, Ivory key OU
By PAT EDMONDSON
Battalion Sports Writer
As quarterback Steve Davis en
tered the Oklahoma huddle late in
the fourth quarter during their clas
sic confrontation with the Univer
sity of Texas, the thought of Russell
Erxleben’s 43 yard field goal clear
ing the cross bar by inches might
have loomed in his mind. The UT
freshman kicking specialist had just
squared the contest at 17-17 against
a torrid 15 miles per hour wind.
As Davis bent over center Dennis
Buchanen, he noticed an unba
lanced number of orange jerseys on
the right side of the Texas defensive
line. The play from Head Coach
Barry Switzer originally called for a
pitchout directly into the heart of
the would-be tacklers. But Davis
called an audible, sending fullback
Horace Ivory off tackle to the oppo
site side.
The third stringer from Fort
Worth found a hole wide enough for
an elephant to walk through, dart
ing the final 33 yards and preserving
a 24-17 win for the defending na
tional champions. The win embar
rassed the Longhorns for the fifth
consecutive year. It was also the
Sooners 2bth win in a row and their
36th without a loss.
Turnovers were the big factor in
what turned out to be a sloppy
melee resulting in 11 fumbles and
one interception. To the common
spectator, it appeared that neither
team wanted the game badly
enough to play up to their nationally
ranked potential. The Sooners
capitalized on four of five Texas
fumbles and intercepted a pass,
while the Horns jumped on two of
six OU miscues.
The big question prior to kick-off
was whether each squad could put a
stop on respective superstars Joe
Washington and Earl Campbell.
Campbell was the leading ground
gainer, tacking on 95 yards on 23
carries. Washington was impressive
at times, returning a punt 80 yards
which was nullified by a clipping
penalty. He ran 76 yards on 16 at
tempts and scored a touchdown on a
nine yard spurt.
Marty Akins’ precision Wishbone
leadership led to a Longhorn
touchdown early in the fourth quar
ter. Following a partially blocked
Oklahoma punt by defensive back
Joe Bob Bizzell which gave Texas
excellent field position at the
Sooner 37, a perfectly timed pitch
from Akins to halfback Jimmy
Walker put the orange and white
back in contention.

“We just had the blabs last week.
We just got back from the tourna
ment (California) and were so high
after winning, it was hard to shake
off.
The guys are looking forward to
Michigan this weekend, said Fos
dick.
Half of the team will be sent to
play four games in Michigan on Fri
day and Saturday. They will play a
practice game against the Ann
Arbor All-Stars on Friday after
noon, then participate in a three
game tourney on Saturday with
Michigan (5-2), Bucknell and
Loyola of Chicago (6-1).
Fosdick was most worried about
officiating, “Fm wary about how
they’ll be calling the ball,” he said.
About the quality of teams be said,
“I can’t imagine any Eastern teams
playing better than California
teams.”
Meanwhile the other half of the
squad will be sent to Ft. Worth to
play TCU along with the women’s
squad.
They then return to College Sta
tion for the last home game of the
year versus The Bunch from Hous
ton on Monday night.
Chicken fried steak like
you wouldn't believe.
The 3-C Corral serves a chicken fried steak like you
wouldn’t believe. We start with Vs pound of round
steak — without a speck of “extender.” We double dip
each steak in our own batter, fry it to a golden brown
and deliver it to your table hot and ready to eat. The
chicken fried plate also includes a generous serving of
french fries, fresh green salad and a roll.
And the price is about the same you’ve been paying
for a pre-breaded steak: $ 2 35
If you like chicken fried steak (and nearly every
Aggie does) you’ll find a home at the 3-C Corral.
