Ags finish second in Border Olympics
By SEAN PETTY
The Texas A&M men s track team
headed lor the border Saturday.
The Aggies came up tour points
short of’ defending their title at the
meet. The Rice Owls swooped in to
take the team title with 120 points to
A6cM s 116. The Ags did finish
ahead of Baylor (101), University of
Texas (47), Lamar (43), SMU (31),
Texas Tech (15), North Texas State
(14), and TCU (eight).
Mike Mosley, the talented
freshman from Humble, was the
meet’s outstanding athlete. Mosley
accumulated 27 points from the four
events he entered. Mosley took sec
ond in the long jump with a leap of
23-8.5, being beaten out by Rice’s
Curtis Isaih on his last jump.
Mosley won the 120-yard high hur
dles in a time of 14.2. He then
placed fourth in the 100-yard dash
with a time of 10.0. Mosley also ran

the first leg of the winning 440-relay
team.
The Aggies had a good team effort
in Laredo. Coach Ted Nelson was
pleased with the performance, but
felt the Aggies should have won the
meet.
“A lot of things happened in the
meet that hurt us. We should have
won the meet by 20 points, said
Nelson. "Randy Hall should have
placed in the pole vault and we
didn’t get points in some of the
events we thought we should.”
Although the Aggies did not do as
well as expected, there were some
good individual efforts. Steve
Stewart won the discus with a throw
of 174-1, while Tim Scott placed
third in the same event with a 173-4
toss. Scott also placed second in the
shot put with a 54-6.5 effort. Randy
Scott, no relation to Tim, placed
third in the shot put throwing 52.5.
The 440-relay team of Mosley,
Brooks, Leslie Kerr, and Curtis
Dickey, took first with a time of
40.9. The team of Karl Figgs, Ar
thur Williams, Vernon Pittman and
Kerr won the mile relay with a time
of 3:15.5.
Dickey won the 100-yard dash

A night at the fight:
I’ve always been someone who
would do almost anything if I could
see a good fist fight. Since grade
school on, if two of my chums de
cided to lock horns and do battle for
whatever cause seemed necessary, I
was usually playground-side urging
them on.
Well the urge has stayed with me
through the years and I traveled
deep into the heart of Bryan last
Thursday night to watch some not
too artistic, but a lot of laughs box
ing.
year’s competition (up from 32 last
year). The teams entered as groups
of three in either the open or Greek
divisions.
Even with the requirements so
loosely set only one dorm, Moses
Hall, entired this year s competi
tion. And the dorm produced one
champion. Jay Gilbert, in the open
heavyweight division.
In the second annual Sigma Phi
Epsilon Fight Night held last Wed
nesday and Thursday nights at the
National Guard Armory, the fists
were flying and the blood was flow
ing.
Now a real lover of boxing would
probably have groaned at the style
of the contestants, but what could
he expect? The contest was open to
Texas A&M students, with most of
them far below the standards of your
experienced ringmen.
But the real requirement for
entering was if you could take a
punch. That’s why I sat this one out.
But 57 fighters signed up for this
Gilbert’s fight was probably the
best fight of Thursday evening.
From the opening bell the 232-
pound Gilbert and Mike Barrett, a
240-pound junior representing the
Rodeo Club, pounded on each
other’s head and body. Blood
started to flow in the first round and
when the final bell had sounded, the
judges awarded the decision to Gil
bert. The fight was so close that the
judges called the first and third
rounds completely even, but
awarded the second and decisive
round to Gilbert.
The judges did a good job
throughout the two night event.
Stepping in to call this year’s fights
were Wally Groff, assistant athletic
director for business affairs here at
Texas A&M, Don Blister, executive
