Has good credentials
Newcomer seen as big asset
By ALAN SMITH
Battalion Sports Writer
It seems as if Coach Dennis Fos-
dick intends going the “whole hog
on the aquatic scene. Not only has
he swept the men’s water-polo
squad to fame and fortune in tidal-
wave fashion, but he also appears to
have discovered another “Fos spe
cial”.
She appears in the form of
Californian Jeannie Buckles, a 19-
year old sophomore transfer from
Long Beach State University.
Buckles has the distinction of
being the first female swimmer to
receive a full scholarship at A&M,
and what s more, she feels that this
is only the beginning of the boosting
that women s sports is getting in col
leges.
Jeannie Buckles
"If women s sports are going to
progress, the colleges are going to
have to start handing out more scho
larships and better facilities, said
Buckles, referring to the all male
athletic dorm.
Anyway there are no feathers in
the fact that she is quality. It is no
surprise to find out that she was
coached by the official assistant
woman s swim coach for the upcom
ing Olympic games in Montreal,
Coach Jim Montrella.
Montrella has already produced a
wave of Olympic stars including
Steve Jenner, Ann Symmons, Dana
Schrader and Susie Atwood, who
splashed her way to a bronze medal
and a fourth place in Munich.
Buckles specialty is backstroke,
which was the only weak link in
Fosdick s women s squad last year.
“Jeannie is the depth that we
need. Last year we really hurt for a
point scorer in the backstroke. She
can be counted on for a place in top
competition, said Fosdick, refer-
Pro injuries on rise
NEW YORK (AP) — “I've never
seen anything like it, said
Washington Coach George Allen,
surveying his team’s injury list. The
opinion is shared by others in the
National Football League, whose
list of players injured badly enough
to miss the entire season now num
bers 127.
determine if the number of injured
is at record levels. It does appear to
be higher than normal.
With six weeks gone, and eight
remaining, in the NFL s regular
season, the 127 players on the
season-long injured reserve list
equals more than 11 percent of the
1,118 athletes it takes to stock each
of the 26 clubs with 43 players.

coining up in the spring.
Asked about her personal ambi
tions, Buckles said, “I would really
like to win state, and make it to the
finals at nationals. I would also like
to make it to the Olympic trials in
June.
Her personal bests so far are ex
cellent, 62 seconds in the 100-yard
backstroke, 2.17 in the 200-\ aid
backstroke, and 55 seconds in the
100-yard freesty le — which is no
f ish story.
“I was offered a scholarship to
Colorado University, but I turned it
down to come here, the spirit here
is fantastic, and the people are so
friendly, she said.
“The weather here is great, it’s so
nice to see blue sky all the time.
(Her home is 20 minutes from Los
Angeles, where blue is any thing but
a dirty word.)
The former Lakewood Aquatic
Club star is an agriculture major.
She is a potential star, and should
prove to he a tremendous asset to
the swim team, and especially to
A&M.
Coach Fosdick s recruiting trip to
California this summer in fact
yielded two twinklers — the other
will arrive in the spring from
Saddleback Junior College in
California.
The women s first meet will be
the Maroon and White Intrasquad
Match held Dec. 6.
