The highly rated A&M Water
Polo team faces a tough ten team
lineup here in College Station this
weekend. Included in the competi
tion is an extremely strong S.M.U.
squad who twice have given the Ags
a swim for their money.
In the first, the A&M tankers
scraped home by a margin of 7-5,
then in their last meeting the Water
Ponies took the Ags into overtime,
only to be defeated 10-8.
The fifth annual Southwest U.S.
Water Polo Championships get
under way on Friday at 4 p.m.
All the teams competing are:
Texas A&M "A ; Texas A&M
Freshman; Texas A&M B and
“C”, Southwest Missouri, College
Station Water Polo Club, Chappar-
ral Sports International, S.M.U.,
The Bunch from Houston and
Alamo Heights.
The A&M “A” squad are definite
favorites for the champs, even
though the Ags are without their

Fem harriers capture
second place spot
All-American captain Jim Yates,
who is presently out with mono
nucleosis.
“It’s hard to drop an All-American
from any squad, no matter what the
situation is,” said A&M Coach De
nnis Fosdick. He went on to say,
“We’ve got a really well-balanced
attack, there’s no way you can lose
one man and beat us. ”
It’s quite possible that Coach
Fosdick knows what he’s talking
about too, when you consider that
his A&M record is 105 wins, 14 los
ses, and one draw, which includes
the last 34 games without a single
loss.
The top goal scorers this season
are the two Yates brothers. Bill and
Jim, together with junior Blake
Hineman, who also holds the dis
tinction of having the most assists.
The water polo action, starting at
4 p.m. on Friday, produces two
games an hour until the last Friday
game at 9 p.m.
Saturday will prove to be excit
ing, due mainly to the two major
finals games, which round off the
weekend’s splashing, with the
semi-finals at 4:30 p.m.
The championship game will start
at 6 p.m. Saturday.

A novice Texas A&M Women’s
Cross Country squad took a very
respectable second place in a two-
mile race here in College Station
recently.
The lady harriers were out-run by
a more experienced Cameron Track
Club team, which is in fact a com
bined squad from the University of
Houston and Rice University.
The individual title was taken by
Carol Urish from Cameron, who
strode the two miler in 14:48.
Second place saw a dead heat be
tween Lynn Lovat and Donna
Shell, both of Cameron.
The first Aggie finisher was
Martha Sartains, who took fifth
place over-all in a time of 15:22, fol
lowed by another Ag in seventh
place, Sharon Boyle, who was timed
at 15:42.
Other Ag places were: tenth,
Tanya Strow (16:05); 12th, Susan
Johnson (16:19) A&M Water Polo;
14th, K. K. Kueteman (16:49) A&M
Water Polo and 15, Diane McCrady
(16:58).
The A&M Coach Dave Williams
was totally satisfied with his team’s
performance. “The whole team is
new to the sport, but they are im
proving steadily.”

Cross Country is not recognized
as a major sport by the T.A.I.A.W.
(Texas Association of Inter
collegiate Athletics for Women).
“The sport is still young, and it’s
going to take time for us to get rec
ognition,” said Williams.
The two top finishers for the Ags
are both on partial scholarships,
which amount to $200.00 per
semester plus books, which accord
ing to the young ladies, is a good
start.
Both Martha Sartans and Sharon
Boyle are optimistic as to the future
of women’s track and cross country
programs at A&M.
“Our budget is really small at pre
sent, we receive $2,000.00 per year,
which really isn’t much to work
with, but it’s a good start,” said
Coach Williams.
On Saturday the squad travels to
Tea-sipper country, where they
compete against Baylor, Houston,
Texas Tech, S.M.U. and the host
University of Texas.
In the finale of the season, Sar
tains and Boyle jet to the national
