The course will cover nine miles — a relatively short dis tance for the men’s team which completed a 410-mile journey two weeks ago. The men’s team, consisting of John Bugge and Mike Schively, placed first in the aluminum class and finished fifth overall. The A&M team, which cur rently leads Texas in the number of points required to earn a spon sorship to compete in the na tional race this August, will at tempt to pad their lead July 23 in the 15-mile Aqua Fest race in Austin.

The Parks and Wildlife De partment has also been suc cessful in hatching smallmouth bass. More than a million smallmouths have been placed in Texas lakes and reservoirs. Receiving smallmouth finger- lings were Lake Travis, Lake Meredith, Mackenzie Reservoir, Blanco River, North Fork Reser voir, Boerne City Lake, Rio Grande, Medina Lake and Still- house Hollow Reservoir. New York Mets pitcher Tom Seaver may be calling it quits with the club he almost single- handedly lifted from the Na tional League cellar to title con tention in the late ’60s. Although the 32-year old righthander admits he wants to stay with the Mets organization, he will go looking for another team if the Mets management continues to refuse to re negotiate his current three-year contract. Seaver’s contract calls for $225,000 a year. If Seaver is traded, he will probably go to Cincinnati, which is offering three players in return for the Met pitching star. miii day sumna Khmer Rfflij) 'ling armsi miles eas!t| Minister Tan anin’s n two mon! mut trial, abortive t i investigate i two tiny r last Jan. id Camb if a 5-yeawl soldiers q d to death b operated «itj ns into I i Thailand h gle hills c Texas bays and freshwater lakes were the recipients of al most one million fingerling striped bass last month from the state’s Parks and Wildlife De- | partment.

Bartow’s acceptance was an nounced yesterday on the UAB campus. He will be called upon to build up the UAB intercol legiate athletic program with the emphasis placed on the women’s program. Bartow’s record while at UCLA was 52 wins against nine losses. His teams won the Pac-8 title both years and competed well in the national playoffs. Before going to UCLA, Barton who had built Memphis State into a national basketball power, was in the process of rebuilding the University of Illinois basket ball program when he accepted the post at UCLA.

The way he handles a bat, the way he wins the American League batting title year after year, all he’d have to do is notify the Minnesota Twins he wants to be a free agent when his contract is up and the other clubs would fall all over them selves offering him big money. Reggie Jackson, tooling around in a fancy Rolls-Royce, told Carew he should’ve become a free agent and made millions like he did. Rod Carew isn’t interested in that. Not that he has any grudge against money. It’s simply that he’s satisfied with the money the Twins are pay ing him. Carew gets something like $170,000 a year from the Twins, which isn’t anything like the $400,000 Joe Morgan is drawing from the Reds or the $333,000 Steve Garvey is making with the Dodgers, but he’s not kicking at all even though he is practically lapping the field in a bid for his sixth American League batting crown. “I thought about it all and looked at it from every possible aspect,” he says, talking about his three-year contract with the Twins which has another year after this one to run. “No one pressured me into sign ing or held a gun to my head. I feel I have to be a man of my word. Maybe I could’ve made a lot more money elsewhere, but I’m happy here and I’m satisfied. It’s like a family and I honestly enjoy being with the Twins.” Some other ballplayers may think Rod Carew has rocks in his head, but he has what so many other players don’t have, peace of mind. He isn’t looking around all the time to see what others make and it’s not eating him inside knowing he isn’t the highest paid player. That isn’t his overall aim. He’d much rather be acknowl edged the best hitter in the game and whether he’s aware of it or not, he probably has achieved that goal already. Take a look at where he is right now. His .388 batting average is the best in both leagues. By far. In his own league, his closest pursuer, Bob Bailor of the Toronto Blue Jays, is trailing him by 44 points. Carew wound up the Twin’s latest road trip with a homer, triple and a single Sunday in a 6-1 victory over the Yankees. Carew’s lifetime batting average of .328 is the best in the American League, best in both leagues, in fact. His highest average ever over a full year with the Twins was .364 three years ago. If anyone around now is capable of ever hitting .400, GOOD FARMERS NEEDED. AND OTHERS, TOO. PEACE CORPS * VISTA ON CAMPUS: June 21,22 INTERVIEWING SENIORS/GRADS INFORMATION BOOTH AT M.S.C.

Under the right cir cumstances, someone can do it.” A second baseman for most of his 10 years with the Twins, Carew now is doing a good job defensively at first base for them. “Gene Mauch is the only one who has ever given me credit for my de fensive ability,” says Carew, ap preciatively. “He gives me confi dence when he lets me know he feels I can do the job with my glove. No one has ever done that with me before. He doesn’t pull me out of there or DH me if I’m ever in a hit ting slump.” Cvltec Shop Daily 8 a.m.-7 p.m. • Saturday til 5 p.m. All You Can Eat” IKEAItTEU. apartment managers Scandia 1&2 / Aurora Gardens / Sevilla / Taos 1601 Holleman / 401 Anderson St. College Station, Texas 77801 15% discount for summer leases. 1 month free when you sign a 12-month lease. 1-2-3 bedroom apartments and duplex units • furnished and unfurnished models • pools • washing areas • bus • security • etc (all the good things) Scandia 1/Taos/Aurora Gardens: Scandia 2/Sevilla: 693-6716 Sausalito/Sundance: 693-4242 693-6505 Daily Specials MONDAY .
