Wilson said, “The players came
back with a good attitude, we had a
good summer program and the dis
cipline has been strict but they’ve
stuck with us. These young men
have really worked hard and when
they go on the field, I know they’ll
play hard.”

formed four years ago. Its dues help

Vance said the discussions about
undocumented workers are “pro

which is satisfactory to both our
countries.”
The neighbor nations also are at
odds over a continuing oil spill in
the Gulf of Mexico which among
other places polluted the beaches
and many fishing grounds in Texas.
U.S. officials believe Mexico should
help pay for that clean up. Mexican
officials so far have refused and the

from the 12th Man,” yearly dues are
$12.
The club charters buses to travel
to out-of-town athletic events and
has chartered planes to go to some
football games. The main event the
club sponsors each year is the Senior
All-Sports Banquet honoring
graduating senior athletes from all
sports. The club is open to any stu
dent at Texas A&M who is interested
in the support of the school’s ath
letics.
Asked about the first game with
Brigham Young University on
Saturday, Coach Wilson said, “They
pose a problem for a first ballgame.”
He said they are a very dangerous
and versatile team much like the
Dallas Cowboys. “Once you think
you’ve got ’em figured out they
switch on you.
“We will be needing tailback Cur
tis Dickey to carry the ball 30 to 35
times a game to get the job done this
season,” Wilson said. George
Woodard, another part of the run
ning game, is still having knee prob
lems, so he’ll probably not see much
action in Saturday’s game with BYU.
“I know that if we needed him now,
though, he could play,” said Wilson.
Wilson said the kicking game is
hurting in all areas and that a consis
tency needs to be found in starter
David Appleby or second team
punter Doug Dotter. He said the
team also lacked depth this year but
is not devoid of it. There are some
good back-up men on the team, Wil
son said.

Earl L. Shawver, past VFW post

VFW and Legion before they died.”
Gene Fuller, Legion post com

want us to buy air. They don’t own

The VFW filed a district court
lawsuit asking the court to declare
mutual ownership of the building. A
hearing on that suit will be held
Monday.
“This is the only big building in
town,” said local resident Mrs. Kat

The VFW wants $35,000 for the
half it claims.
