The Southwest Conference will

lie are going to see some great col-

^ ' ournament pits the nationally rank-
University of Texas against con-
erence Cinderella Texas Tech, and
lie hometown favorite Texas Aggies
gainst the University of Arkansas,
ne of the pre-season conference
ivorites.
While Chandler is enjoying the
lea of hosting the tournament in its
rst-ever appearance away from Au-
tin, he is more concerened with the
New prop trkansas club his team will come up
ray to the tali gainst.
iations MonS “They are a very fine ball club, ” he
itor is cautios aid. Chandler then rattled off a few
easy end toi npressive names which lend a ring
■ truth to that cliche: Steve Kruger,
leball owner! itcher, undefeated in SWC action
ificantstepia' i two years; Mack Reynolds, SWC
ered a prop! lost valuable player; and several
riggest issue! ther starters that make Arkansas
'hat Chandler called a “veteran-
the ownersji > r pe” club.
ampensatioin The Aggies will rely on their own
m offer. M» trong points: pitching and defense
director ofl gainst Arkansas. Chandler said he
requestedli ad a hard choice to make in decid-
before rest® igwhom to start on the mound.
Were going to start (freshman
m) Luecken simply because we
M l>he he can come back a little
e tter than the other fellows, if we’re
Wunate enough to get into the

§ Luecken, 9-3 on the year, lost his
N game of the season against
L Kansas when the two teams met in
j a y e tteville earlier this season.
S 4 J Randier, pleased with his young
Ji r® s pitching this year, also is hap-
7 the Aggie defense this year,
ternationaj I Our defense has been real fine,
_ Rookie particularly up the middle,” he said,
o runs, have Twig Little at shortstop,
be bottom o who can go get the ball well, and he’s
lay night, «*ot an accurate arm. We’ve got
:stoa4-2'w#oody Woodruff at second base,
turns the double-play well.
Adding Simon Glenn’s name as “a
fine defensive centerfielder,”
Chandler summed it up: “We think
our strength is up the middle.”
Like almost everyone else,
Chandler sees the Texas Longhorns
as the team to beat. Texas won the
SWC pre-tournament title, finishing
one-half game ahead of the Aggies.
“But in a short series like this,”
Chandler said, “any ball club which
can put together some good plays,
can play hot and can play well will
win the tournament.”
Texas A&M is now 38-12, after
splitting a four-game series with
Texas Wesleyan College on Sunday
and Monday.
