Five Texas A&M students, includ
ing four yell leaders, were involved
in a one-car accident Tuesday night.
The accident occurred at about
11:20 p.m., south of Wellborn near
the intersection of FM 2154 and
Straub Road, as the students were
returning from the A&M-University
of Houston basketball game in Hous
ton.
Two of the yell leaders. Chuck
Hinton, 21, and Robby Tucker, 20,
were taken to the A&M Beutel
Health Center with cuts and bruises.
Two other yell leaders, Jim Bob
Mickler, 21, and Joe D. Mickler, 20,
and the driver of the car, Jim Kotch,
were treated for minor injuries. Hin
ton was released yesterday and
Tucker is expected to be released
today.
The accident occurred when the
students’ car struck a tree after
swerving to avoid an oncoming car.
Officer George Garrett of the De
partment of Public Safety said the car
was demolished.
A private car took Hinton and
Tucker to the Health Center.
All the yell leaders are expected to
be at tonight’s basketball game here
against TCU.

“We are asking students and li

But in spite of the increasing prob
lem Alsmeyer said A&M does not
have as many problems with it as
some universities across the nation.
