LUTHERAN 9:30 Study for all ages 10:45 Worship for all (nursery) With all the hullabaloo (caneck, caneck) concerning the A&M foot ball team this week, Aggie sports enthusiasts are overlooking the Houston Astros, who for the second straight season find themselves in a race for the pennant. Last night the Orange lost to the Atlanta Braves, 4-2, while the L.A. Dodgers beat the Giants, 5-4, to creep into a first place tie with the Astros. Both Houston and L.A. have 10 games left, while Cincin nati, who is still in the picture at 2!/2 games back, has nine remaining. On paper it would seem the As- Analysis tros are in trouble. Of the 10 games remaining, Houston will face Atlan ta on the road tonight before return ing to the friendly confines of the spacious Astrodome for three games with the Reds, and then three with the Braves. The Stros then head out west for a crucial three-game series with the Dodgers. A closer breakdown of the re maining schedule reveals these in teresting facts.

Last year at this time, Houston arrived in Atlanta after taking three- of-four from the Reds, and trailed the first-place Cincinnati club by a game and half. But, the Braves took three-of-four from Houston and fin ished them off for the year. Over the past two years, the Braves have won 13 out of 18 from the Astros at home, including se- ven-of-nine this season. Atlanta has been one of the hottest teams in the majors since the all-star break, and will probably knock the Astros out of first place tonight. But Houston, which has compiled a 13-2 mark against the Braves in the Dome the past two seasons, get another crack at Atlanta next week.
