INFORMATION BOOTH: MEMORIAL STUDENT CENTER rencc corps A&M club to sponsor water ski tournament By BECKY MATTHEWS Battalion Reporter Texas A&M University’s Water Ski Club will sponsor its 13th tour nament in five years when the Gol- drush Intercollegiate Tournament is held this weekend at Aqua Gardens, a private lake in Centerville. One hundred to 140 students from at least 10 Texas universities are expected to compete in the slalom, trick and jump events. In the slalom, the skier must zig zag between buoys. Trick skiing in volves performing a series of turns and tricks in a 20-second period. In yet another event, skiers jump for distance from a ramp. Each event is divided into male and female divisions. The 25 members of the Texas A&M Water Ski Club who will par ticipate in the tournament do not expect to win, said Mark Burton, team captain. Burton said that many teams have an advantage over his team because “they have more backing up by their universities.” Water ski teams at other universi ties, he said, are given access to the P.E. equipment and facilities. One university built a lake in the center of the campus and the water ski team practices in the lake, according to Burton. The major problem he said, is that the Texas A&M team has been unable to get enough practice. The team has to go to Lake Somerville :o practice and that is almost impos ;i- ble to do during the school weel Registration for the tournament will begin at 7 a.m. Saturday. Fees are $10 for participation in one event, $11 for two events and $12 for three events. Competition will begin at 8 a.m. with the slalom. The trick event will follow the slalom at about 1 p.m. The jump competition will begin at 8 a.m. Sunday. Cattle spread near Houston Somozas own Texas ranch United Press International HEMPSTEAD — Relatives of Anastasio Somoza own a 1,200-acre cattle ranch west of Houston where the former Nicaraguan president apparently planned an experimental feeding program before he was re moved from office, a cattle dealer and court records disclosed. The Santa Isabel Ranch was sold by Houston businessman Wiliam S. Farish III for $1.1 million cash through Sodinella International, a Dutch Antilles based company rep resenting two Somoza nephews, said Bill Sartwelle, executive vice president of the Port City Stoc kyards at Sealy. Workers at the ranch said the nephews, Luis Somoza of Houston and Bernabe Somoza of New York City, regularly visit on weekend and holidays. “We weren’t too concerned about whose money it was because it was a cash transaction,” said R.A. Seale Jr., a lawyer involved. Sartwelle said Somoza visited Texas in 1972 and 1973 and pro posed a program whereby the stoc kyard would buy livestock and feed them different rations to see which worked best.
