Leakey Foundation. Bears outrun the Aggies in Waco BY SEAN PETTY Battalion Sports Staff The Texas A&M men’s track team lost the Baylor Invitational “by a prayer” to their hosts, Baylor on Fri day. The Aggies had enough points to win the meet by the traditional point method, but the team championship was decided by the coaches and media who voted for an outstanding team. The Aggies had some good per formances and brought home several first place watches. One member of the Aggies who did well in the windy, cool night, was freshman Leslie Kerr. Kerr won his specialty, the 400-meter dash, run ning an outstanding 46.78. He also ran the third leg of the winning sprint relay team and the anchor leg for the second place mile relay team. Kerr had never run the 440-dash be fore coming to A&M. The Ags took second and third in the discus. Steve Stewart placed second with a toss of 180 feet 8 inches. Tim Scott took third throw ing 177 feet 3 inches. Stewart and Scott have been throwing consis tently well all year and both have qualified for the NCAA meet in Eugene, Ore. The Aggies have had an abun dance of good sprinters this year and they have helped the team im mensely. The team of Chuck Butler, Ray Brooks, Kerr and Vernon Pittman won the 400-meter relay in a time of 40.01. The Aggies have run well without star sprinters Curtis Dickey and Mike Mosley. Mosley may have to battle someone for a spot on the relay team. Dickey and Mosley will rejoin the team this week after being in spring football for the past month. The Aggies placed second and third in the shot put. Tim Scott was second, throwing 54 feet, and Randy Scott was third with a toss of 52 feet 8 inches. The sprint medley relay team ot Butler, Brooks, Arthur Williams and Karl Figgs placed fourth in a time of 3:19.74. Manfred Kohrs did not have enough of a kick to stay with Rice’s Mike Novelli and finished second in How to give your old lamps a new personality Many people get rid of an old lamp for no other reason than they're just tired of looking at it.
