plish this is my greatest qualifica
tion.
Is there a problem of too many
athletic events? What alternatives
or solutions should be used when
yell leaders can’t attend a sporting
event?
There is not a problem of too
many athletic events. Before being
elected, yell leaders should realize
that much of their time is going to
be spent at athletic events. Along
with the privileges of this position
comes this responsibility to the 12th
Man.
What criteria should be used to
decide which sporting events yell
leaders should attend?
The nature of the sport should be
used to decide the yell leader’s at
tendance. If it requires crowd par
ticipation, the yell leaders should be
present to lead the 12th Man.
Does midnight yell practice need
improvement? If so, what?
The attitude that it is “good bull”
to break the ranks of the Band or
run across Kyle Field needs to be
changed. The yell leaders can help
change these attitudes by stressing
that good Ags are unnecessarily hurt
in these situations. Also, “grode”
stories should at least be funny.

order to be able to work with the
student body.
Is there a problem of too many
athletic events? What alternatives
or solutions should be used when
yell leaders can’t attend a sporting
event?
I don’t believe there is a problem
of too many athletic events. Texas
A&M is a major university and
competes highly on the intercol
legiate level. I think it is important
that all Aggies compete in those
sports that give our school any rec
ognition. I believe that all Aggies
are representatives of Texas A&M
and that when yell leaders are not
present, the students will act and
take up any slack.
What criteria should be used to
decide which sporting events yell
leaders should attend?
Yell leaders must always attend
those sports events that are highly
recognized at an organized South
west Conference level or national
level. After these major events, a
yell leader should attend as many
other activities as possible. These
activities should include varsity
sports played by both men and wo
men. As far as varsity sports are
concerned, I believe that the yell
leader should be there whether the
game is at home or away.
Does midnight yell practice need
improvement? If so, what?
Midnight yell practice is one of
the most unique things about A&M.
I believe that it should certainly re
main as an annual Friday night
event before the football games. If
any improvement is needed, I be
lieve it should he in the area of
maintaining a more orderly pres
ence at yell practices. This is hard to
regulate, but I do believe it is a
shame that the band is put under
pressure on going to yell practice as
it is.
. . . HOWELL
(Continued from page 4)
12th Man is behind them 110 per
cent. I know that I have this spirit
and desire to be a represenative for
all Aggies.
Is there a problem of too many
athletic events? What alternatives
or solutions should be used when
yell leaders can’t attend a sporting
event:*
No, personally I do not believe
there are too many athletic events.
Sports participation is a great part of
this university and always has been.
As for the alternatives or solutions,
the only answer is participation as
long as the yell leaders school
schedule permits it.
What criteria should be used to
decide which sporting events yell
leaders should attend?
As stated in the previous answer,
I feel the only criteria is school
schedule. We all came here for
academic purposes so this should he
the yell leader’s first consideration.
Total participation is necessary if
our teams are to get the backing
they need; the yell leaders are an
essential part, hut the 12th Man
needs to be there in hill force to
generate the enthusiasm Aggies are
known for.
Does midnight yell practice need
improvement? If so, what?
Yes, I personally feel midnight
yell definitely needs improvement.
Kyle Field is a memorial and I feel
more respect should be shown. By
respect I mean that people should
think before they take beer or liquor
inside; secondly, I feel that they
should leave the lights out a
longer (WHOOP!) to enrich
good ole Aggie tradition.
. . . HANCOCK
(Continued from page 4)
No, as it stands there is no prob
lem of too many sports events. Just
as long as people realize
some sports events there is noi|
yell leaders can do organized yej
or unorganized yells, for thati
ter. I see no reason for yell leat
not attending the designated euj
they do, but if for some reason!
can not attend, then by siiJ
communicating with a few studtj
maybe the word will he paslf
see no reason why at least one|
leader can’t attend, anyway. I
What criteria should be usefl
decide what sporting events
leaders should attend?
Basically, just a good sensei
judgement. A Southwest ConfJ
ence affiliated event where a laj
enough crowd attends so that lej
ing yells is possible. The yell lea
are only human; if they do
best, no more can be asked.

Basketball Highlights
Basketball has now closed its
season. With 570 teams compet
ing, the division games are on par
with the All-University matches.
Here are some highlights from the
division competition. Playoff re
sults will be out next week.
Women’s dorm Class A compe
tition was narrowed down to the
Mosher Pistol Petes against the
Fowder Jocques. High scorers for
the Petes were Valerie Pechacek
wdth 8 points in the first half and 2
in the second and Linda Dieken
who scored 6 in the first and 4 in
the second. High scorers for the
Jocques were Ruth Latham with 6
points in the first and 2 in the sec
ond and Janelle Overhouse with 4
points in the first half and 2 in the
second. At half-time Mosher led
by 7 points; a lead they maintained
to win 29-22.
The Aston Lone Stars and the
Puryear Playboys played a highly
spirited game for the men’s dorm
division Class A competition. Both
teams had a large team showing
and scoring was spread out
amongst the members for both
teams. The second half was de
manding as Aston scored only 1
more point than Puryear. Aston
won by 7 points, 42-35.
F-l attacked D-2 in a fairly of
fensive game for the Corps Class A
division playoffs and trailed by 1
point at the half. High scorers for
D-2 were Joe Jennings and Mike
Anthony with 7 points each for the
first half and 5 and 4 points respec
tively for the second. High scorers
for F-l were Mark Maroney with a
game total of 14 points and Berry
Evans with 16 points. Half time
saw a score of 23-24 with D-l lead
ing. The second was an exciting
soar of 17 points by F-l to win
41-35.
Fish Class A competition saw a
close battle between D-l’s #1 and
Squadron 2. High scorer for D-l
was Jim Lawson with a game total
for 12 points, and the rest were
spread amongst the other team
members. High scorers for Squad--
ron 2 were J. Roosma, M. Probst,
T. Adair, and D. Quinn. At the
half D-l led by 4 points for a score
of 22-18. Squadron 2 scored 22
points in the second half to edge
by D-l with a 40-37 victory.
The Women’s Independent
Class A match was a very defen
sive game during the first half.
BSU #1 led at the half, 12 to the
Tang Gang’s 9. The high scorer for
the first half was the BSU’s Iris
Tipton. The second half saw more
of an offensive game as the Tang
Gang raked in 13 points and BSU
tallied up 23. High scorers for the
second half were BSU’s Shirley
McDougle, Beverly Baum, and
the Tang Gang’s Susie Parker and
Lyndie Kern. BSU #1 won 35-22.
Competition for the Men’s In
dependent Class B title was tense
and fierce. Ken Launsing scored
10 points for Agronomy during the
first half and Scott Williams and
Scott Gillis were high scorers
throughout the game for the Has
Beens. At half the Has Beens were
traiUng 20-22. Both teams scored
several points on foul shots during
the game. Agronomy’s high scorer
for the second half was Al Nelson.
Agronomy lost 43-46.
Three point spreads seem to
have been the vogue during the
playoffs. Men’s Independent Class
A competition was in trend with a
21-18 halftime score between the
Roaches and the Nailers. Steve
Krueger scoring 8 points was the
Nailer’s high scorer. Bruescher
with 8 and Kosmoski with 13 were
high scorers for the Roaches. The
Roaches spread out their points
amongst team members during
the second half while the Nailers
had 3 high-point men — Jim
Ogden with 10 points, Clanton
Harrison with 6, and Mitch
Mahingley with 5. The Nailers
sippled past the Roaches to win
39-36.
There you have it folks, the joy
of victory and the “agony of de
feat.” They were all really great
games and congratulations are in
store for everyone who played IM
basketball ’78.
