The latter probably holds true. “It” is the fast start of the freshmen on the Texas A&M University wrest ling team this fall. This past weekend, the Aggies, led by seven freshmen, went to the University of Texas Open in Austin and walked away with a second place trophy. “They surprised me,” said Wrest ling Club President Bob Santini Monday. “We didn’t even have a 177 pounder (class participant) there, and they were competing against Texas and Richland and the best teams in the state.” Richland took the event title. Texas A&M was hampered even further by the fact three-time state champion Santini and fellow team leader John Sweatt, a two-time state champ, did not participate because they were training for the very com petitive Oklahoma Open, which will be Saturday and Sunday in Norman. Several Aggies took class titles at the Texas Open. Freshmen Ed Conway, Greg Lewallen and Joe Eazor won in the 118-, 134-and 150-pound classes re spectively. Freshman Ricky Lanacek was second in the 190-pound categ ory, and senior Curtis Templet finished second in the heavyweight event.

Reflections by Richard Oliver OSU has traditions. I got lei-ed in Columbus, Ohio Friday night. That’s right, I had a wet, beautiful kiss planted on mylipsbyal female when I entered a Columbus drinking establishment, lei-ed. Right there at the door in front of hundreds of people It’s all part of Ohio State University tradition. Forthoseil die-hard Aggie football fans who follow traditions and ri< thought I’d bring you up to date on a few from one of those " places up north. This weekend, the Ags will take on the hated Texas. Last Sat Ohio State played their equally hated foes, the Michigan Wot was attending a journalism convention in Ohio, and got treat! mean football rivalry, Yankee style. Before I get too deep in the story, I suppose I betterexplainln why I got lei-ed. In an area of Columbus called German Town, a small club called Diebold’s, which is the local hangout of the Bi students (a la our Dixie Chicken). They have a custom there where Hawaiian leis are passed woman with a lei on her neck may in turn place it around) student’s neck and give him a kiss. The guy then looks around anil a girl he can carry on the custom with. And on and on. Itmakesfo of picking and grinning, let me tell you. On Friday night on High Street before the Wolverines town, the Buckeyes all gather to drink, party and sometunal destructive in arousing the spirit for the long-awaited matchup. There is screaming, singing, dancing, etc. as Ohio State passed around and unplanned marches are held up and do«i street. Needless to say, traffic is hard-pressed to find a way this mob. Anyone mentioning Michigan usually receives a severe lashing, or a swift kick in the ... well, no one mentions anyway. In all the dives and holes in the wall in Columbus, groups praise the red and gray of Ohio State, and the colors are eveml A little history will show you that Ohio State and J been foes since way back in 1897. The two schools have play another 76 times, with the Wolverines taking 43 contests (al weekend s 9-3 squeaker), and the Buckeyes winning 29. There 1 been five ties. Besides the raucous partying on High Street, the game affects il every spectrum of life — from business to religion. Across the street from the Ohio State Capitol, a sign in upstairs windows of a skyscraper urged the Buckeyes to “Beat gan.” Banks attired their tellers in gray and scarlet t-shirts OSU. Restaurants in the city hung up gray and red curtaiit waitresses wore OSU corsages. One church in the city hadtk: weekly Bible verse on its outdoor bulletin board, witha message! Friday t black letters underneath that said, “Go Bucks!” On Friday night before the game, a giant pep rally was attracted thousands of fans from the 50,0(K)-student campus s coming visitors, along with Head OSU Coach Earle Bruce ami players. A friend of mine, Tom Smith, who graduated from Texas 1 1979 and lived in Columbus for a year, took meforatourofthetm game day. Nearly every neighborhood house in the ritzy part of torn flagpole in its front yard. On that flagpole was a large gray flagwil red “O” in the middle of it. It was all very impressive. Tonight at the Bonfire, I'll pi compare OSU and A&M a little bit. But, then again, it fruitless. Aggies are a special breed, no doubt, and whenitcomesi to beer drinking and celebrating, we can’t be equalled lei-ing — I think OSU has got us. Senior f W-51T, Club. W Woods i II PROBLEM PREGNANCY?
