The Texas A&M University men’s
soccer team sets out on a tough jour
ney Saturday. It’s a journey toward
respectability.
But Head Coach Telmo Franco
thinks its a trip worth taking. No
body, however, said it would be
easy.
“We have to win the rest of our
games to come in second,” he said
Thursday night. “We (A&M) have
never finished that high. ”
The reason A&M cannot finish
even higher is the SMU Mustangs,
who bowled over the Aggies last
Saturday, 4-0. Now, A&M must take
on a tough Texas Tech team Saturday

at 2 p.m. Saturday at the Penberthy
Intramural Complex.
“Definitely we have a good
chance,” said Franco firmly. “The
information I get is that they (Red
Raiders) are equal with Baylor, Texas
and us. With our experience and de
sire, we should win. I hope we can
win, anyway.”
Franco, a coach who once starred
as a player in Peru, took over the
Aggie reins in August, and although
his team’s 5-3-2 record is not out
standing, the improvements are
noticeable.
Against Baylor earlier this season,
the Aggies pulled off a major upset in
College Station by winning, 3-2. But
since that victory, the Aggies have
been somewhat sluggish at times, a
tendency Franco writes off to a lack
of team cohesiveness. This is due, he
says, to the fact several members are
new.
Over the Thanksgiving vacation,
the Aggies will be on the road,
traveling to Monterrey, Mexico for
an international tournament.

Ag Sports Car Club prepar
for its first 2-day Aggiecross
ason reco)
By RICK STOLLE
Battalion Staff
Racers from around the state will
be arriving today for the biggest
event in the history of the Texas
A&M Sports Car Club.
The first two-day Aggiecross ever
will feature 130 cars from around the
state racing the clock to win trophies
and awards and to determine some'
of the fastest cars in the state.
Preparations have been rushed as
the sports car club has prepared the
speedway, registered cars, made in
spections and finalized plans for the
event. Registration of cars has been
closed, but anyone wishing to watch
and work is welcome to call Jay
Bittle at 693-6620 or Bill Labarge at
846-9086 to get a worker’s pass.
“We need workers,' said club
president Chuck Schmitt. “The
Speedway will not allow us to have
any spectators, so the only way to
watch is to be a worker.”
Aggiecross is a series of three runs
around the speedway track against
the clock. In previous years, speeds
have gotten up to 180 mph.
There are two cars on the track at
the same time but at opposite sides
