one of two choices. He said, “We will
either be playing in the Mid-West or
Rocky Mountain regionals. I have
sent assistant coach Jim Sampson to
scout the Big Eight final between
Oklahoma and Missouri, should we
go to the Mid-West tourney. If we
receive a berth in the Rocky
Mountain tournament, I know we
will be playing Arizona State, the
number one team in the nation.”
News of the Aggies receiving a
tournament bid was sent to Athletic
Director, Emory Bellard. It marks
the second straight year the Aggies
have been selected to play in the
tournament.
The Aggies have scheduled 12
practice games over the next two
weeks. The teams they will be play
ing are St. Mary’s, Lamar University
and Pan America. These teams
should give the Ags some stiff com
petition before the play-offs begin.
Chandler has not chosen his start
ing pitcher. He said that it depended
upon what team they would be play
ing, and what kind of line-up that
team had. James “Hoot” Gibson has
the best record of the Aggie hurlers,
compiling a 13-1 seasonal mark.
A&M had its best season this year,
compiling a 34-8 record. They are
ranked 20th in the nation, finishing
second in SWC action to the Univer
sity of Texas.
The Ags had an excellent hitting
team this season, and should prove a
formidable opponent. Their team
batting average was .313. Billy
Raymer was the team’s leading hitter
with a .381 average.
Besides these marks, school marks
were broken in the following

Track season is not yet completed,
yet the Aggies have signed six pros
pects to scholarships yesterday.
The bright spot for the Aggies is
the signing of Houston Sterlings’
three premier runners. They are
twins Kent and Karl Figgs, and Re-
■ ginaldjamerson. All three ran on the
I mile relay team which has the na-
| tion’s best schoolboy time of 3:14.3.
The other signees for the Aggies
were distant runner Mark Gauger of

Associated Press
■ CLEVELAND — In the face of
Jj I denials hy Cleveland Coach Bill
Fitch and Los Angeles Lakers owner
Jack Kent Cooke, Cavaliers owner
Nick Mileti maintained Monday that
Fitch sought release from his con
tract in order to coach the Lakers.
Meanwhile, Fitch went ahead
with an afternoon workout in an at
tempt to end the on-court woes that
left the Cavaliers on the wrong side
ofa2-0margin in their National Bas
ketball Association playoffs with Bos-
tonfor the Eastern Conference title.
The Mileti-Fitch clash that had
| been something of an open secret for
months became public during the
weekend. The Cleveland Plain
Dealer, quoting unidentified
i sources, said Sunday Fitch’s depar
ture from the dual post of coach and
general manager was imminent un
less a rift was resolved.
•Then on Monday the paper
quoted Mileti as having said on
Saturday, “There is no rift on this
side. I know of no rift. ”
But that was before the Cavaliers
lost game No. 2 to the Celtics. The
Sunday score was 94-89, closer than
the Cavaliers’ Thursday night loss of
111-99.
And on the way home from Boston
Sunday, Mileti repeated the
charges, the Cleveland Press re
ported Monday. Despite having
gained a three-year contract at
$75,000 per year last summer, Fitch
had asked April 30 to be released so
he could become coach of the Los
Angeles Lakers, Mileti said.
Fitch, saying Monday the only
thing he wanted to discuss was “win
ning games,” added that he categori
cally denied ever having asked to
leave to coach the Lakers or any
other NBA team.
sprinter Sam Castro of Spring
Branch. All three are superb athletes
and should help shore-up head coach
Clint Thomas’ team.
These are the first signees of the
season for the Aggies and mark the
best crop of signees since the Mills
Brothers. They are all rated on the
blue-chip list, and place the Aggies
in the lead for signees.
The track team is now preparing
for the Southwest Conference meet
to be held in Austin in two weeks.
The Aggies are considered to be
strong in the field events, particu
larly the shot and discus, the hurdles
and the two-mile-relay team. What
will hurt the tracksters is lack of
depth and strength in the sprint
races.
Head coach Shelby Metcalf added
one more man to his roster for next
winter. His name is Dave Goff.
Goff is a 5-10 guard from
Homewood, Illinois. He shot 50 per
cent from the field in high school,
and averaged a nifty 17 points a
game. More importantly is his ability
to pass the ball and hit the open man.
He averaged 7 assists per game last
season.
Goff played his high school bas
ketball in the same area as such
former Aggie greats like Mario
Brown and Sonny Parker. He was
selected to the Illinois All-Star game
and was voted on to the All-Chicago
area team by the Chicago Tribune.
He reminds the coaches of a Mike
Floyd or Gates Erwin, and will be
heavily depended upon if John
Sehlicher is unable to play.
Other recruits for the Aggies this
spring are John Sehlicher, Sonny
Hammond, and Steve Sylvestine.
The Aggies are lacking strong back
up men at the forward and center. As
of now the Ags tallest man is 6-8
center Wally Swanson. For the bas-
ketballers to be strong contenders a
strong forward and center must be
recruited.
