Battalion photo by Pat O’Malley United Press International HOUSTON — George Foster hit a solo home run and Dave Collins capped a five-run fourth inning with a two-run triple Sunday to allow the Cincinnati Reds to remain in first place in the National League West with a 7-1 victory over the Houston Astros. The victory enabled the Reds to salvage the final game of a three- game series and boost their lead to IV2 games. A loss would have tum bled them into second place, a half-game behind the Astros. Foster, who had failed to drive in a run in 10 games, unloaded his 28th home run of the season off starter and loser Vern Ruble, 2-5, in the second, but Houston tied the score in the bottom of the inning on Leonard s bloop double after Jose Cruz singled and stole second. Hector Cruz walked with the bases loaded in the seventh to earn his second RBI of the game. With one week to play, the Reds have six home games left while Houston has seven on the road. ftipfnamha Eddie Dominguez 66 Joe Arciniega '74 lilUJ BTlMlil If you want the real thing, not frozen or canned . . .

Mosley turned huge losses into big gains, keeping Aggie drives alive. “We thought we could run out side every now and then,’ Dickey said with a smile. “Heck, I’m as fast on the grass as I am on the turf. ’’ “It’s great to beat Coach Paterno and Penn St.,” Mosley said. “This game really boosted my confidence and the team. I kept my head and eliminated the mistakes.” It was a different game for the Ags as they only fumbled once and had the breaks go their way for the first time this season. While Mosley and Dickey had a big day, the Aggies’ victory wasn’t a two-man show by any means. The Aggie offensive line opened the holes and moved out on the sweeps to pave the way for Dickey and fullback David Brothers who also scored one touchdown. The line wasn’t intimidated by the Salt and Pepper twins (Millen and Clark) who had only 17 tackles between them. And the Aggie defense played another tough, hard-hitting game al lowing the Nittany Lions, who scored 45 points the week before, only 14 points and keeping the mid dle closed throughout the game. It was evident that the Aggies had done their homework as they stop ped everything the Lions threw at them as if they were in the Lions’ huddle listening. “We knew everything they were going to do, said linebacker Cal Peveto. “We were just going to take it one play at a time and lay it on the line each time. And that’s the way we played it. It was a team victory in every sense of the word or as Wilson said. “There was no one individual who was the key for us. All 64 players who made the trip contributed to this victory. Yes, the giant is awake and having fun now. AUTO INSURANCE FOR AGGIES: (.'all: ( icorm 1 Wrbl) KarmcTs Insurance Croup 823-8051 3400 S.
