Allen had been under some pres sure because of his team’s failure to challenge for the Southwest Confer ence’s first division this season. The Mustangs ended their season last Saturday with a loss to Houston in the opening round of the league’s post-season tournament, finishing 11-16. “I met with Coach Allen and his staff Saturday night,’ Potts said. “And the meeting was a very pro ductive one. In that meeting I spel led out several objectives that must be met next basketball season. “I will not elaborate on certain specifics, but overall the goal is that SMU will be competitive for the SWC championship next year.” Potts said Allen had been given an expanded budget for recruiting and would be able to add another coach to his staff.

He was running his wind sprints down in the right field corner along with all the rest of the Yankee pitch ers and had no idea he’d be doing anything wrong by removing his hat. Everyone did it with the Dod gers. Especially during spring train ing. “They want you to keep it on here,” explained Dick Tidrow, run ning with John. “Why is that?” asked the Yankees new left-hander, not looking to break any rule he knew nothing at all about. Tidrow told him George Stein- brenner always liked the Yankees in full uniform whenever they were on the field. Tommy John listened and was intrigued. He kept his hat on, and talking to a newsman later about some of the things that have im pressed him with the Yankees, he mentioned the incident regarding the cap.

A&M Student fupTn»ml>a 3W Eddie Dominguez '66 Joe Arciniega '74 feels it brings disrespect to the uni form if you don’t wear your cap and your hair is flopping all around when you’re running and I think that’s great,” said John, putting in his 16th season in the big leagues. “Before any ball club can be a win ner, it has to have pride. The Dod gers do; Cincinnati does; Boston does; the Pittsburgh Steelers, Dal las Cowboys and Miami Dolphins do, and in only five days here I can see how much the Yankees do. John, who originally broke in with the Indians in 1963 and was with the White Sox seven years before spending seven more with the Dod gers, is having the time of his life with the Yankees. You can easily see that by the way he participates in the workouts with them. He’s hav ing fun while getting his work done. T like being with the Yankees, it’s a relaxed camp,” he says. Bob Lemon is chiefly responsible for that. He took over the Yankees from Billy Martin last July so this is his first spring in camp with them as their manager. The only time he was with them in spring training be fore this was as pitching coach. Tommy John goes back almost 10 years with Bob Lemon. He knew him when Lemon managed Kansas City, and although John was with the rival White Sox at the time, he’d often go up to Lemon and talk to him about pitching in general and the way he threw his sinker in par ticular. “He has a wonderful low key way about him, said John. “Like the other day when he asked us not to wear sandals, you know, those things the kids wear a lot,' appreciate if you wouidij them,’ he said. Hesaiditlli way a friend might say'l preciate if you wouldnt si my house. The way right, so thoughtful, it wasp He’s quite a man.” Tommy John is 35 look it.
