TEXAS A&M BOOKSTORE Memorial Student Center In the Association of Intercol legiate Athletics for Women state basketball tournament, being held at Stephen F. Austin in Nacog doches, the Aggie Ladies basketball team split its first two games in the double-elimination tournament. The Aggies lost their opening-round game to Lamar 61-56, but re bounded in their second-round match by downing Texas Women’s University 85-60 to stay alive in the tourney. In the morning contest the Aggies jumped off to a 27-20 lead at the half over Lamar, hitting on 46 percent of their shots from the floor. But in the second half Texas A&M could not slow down the Cardinals as Lamar rammed in 41 second-half points to out-distance the Aggies. Lisa Hughes led Aggie scorers with 10 points, hitting five of 11 shots from the field. Peggy Pope pulled down 10 rebounds as the Ag gies out- rebounded Lamar 41-35. Because of the first-round loss the Aggies advanced into the consola tion bracket of the tournament and faced TWU, loser to SFA 108-52 Europe for rent $260/2months When you’ve got a Eurail Youthpass it’s like having a lease on Europe. Because for just $260, you get 2 months of unlimited Economy train travel in 15 European countries. With your Youthpass you can go virtually anywhere from the Costa Brava to Delphi, anytime you want. And unlike hitching, we don’t leave you in the middle of nowhere, instead, you'll travel on fast, comfortable trains to the heart of your next bustling city or quaint village. And because most Europeans travel by train all the time, you’re bound to meet the real people of Europe along the way. You'll even get a chance to do something you may never have done before. Sleep on a train, it beats camping out, and it’s only a few dollars more for a "couchette.” Even after you're off the train, your Youthpass still saves you money. Here are only a few examples: Free lake cruises. Free ferry rides across the Adriatic. Free steamer trips on the Baltic. And free cruises down the Rhine. Not to mention reduced rates on buses. To get your Youthpass you must be under 26. And you must buy it from your Travel Agent in the U.S. because it can’t be purchased in Europe. Of course we won’t start counting your 2 months of unlimited travel until you first use your Youthpass over there. Then, once you're off, it’s adios, arrivederci, bon voyage and auf wiedersehen. So send for our free brochure and find out how to see all of Europe without spending all your money. You’ll soon see why we re one of Europe's biggest rental agents. / rnor e indent eu 3 ° S I ^ i ' ti0nab °^Sr^a l 4aar I Oty 1r es s y outH rn e Dass. w* Austria Denmark France Greece Luxembourg Norway Spain Belgium Finland Germany Italy Netherlands Portugal Sweden Switzerland earlier in the day.
