By RICK STOLLE Battalion Staff If playing 13 tennis matches in eight days is fun to you, Texas A&M tennis coach David Kent wants you. Both Aggie tennis teams will be busy with dual matches and tour naments over these next two weeks. The men’s team will be the busiest with eight matches. The team plays Southwest Texas State University today at 1:30 p.m. and then takes on Baylor University in the first Southwest Conference match of the spring season Satur day at 1:30. Both matches will be played at the Omar Smith Tennis Center. The men will then host coach Kent’s old team. West Texas State University Tuesday at 1:30 p.m. before going to Corpus Christi for the prestigious 13th Annual H.E.B. College Tennis Team Championship. Texas A&M women’s team will have to travel thousands of miles to compete in its matches. The women’s team travels to Houston today to play the Univer sity of Houston and then to Beaumont to take on Lamar Uni versity Saturday. The ladies have a rest for a few days before having to travel to Provo, Utah to com pete in the Brigham Young Invita tional Tournament. “When you have to play a lot of matches like that, you had better have confidence in your team,” Kent said. “It’s a good thing I do.” “The Baylor match last year knocked us out of fifth place in the conference,” he said.

In the SWC, con ference matches add up to an aggregate game total that is used to produce the final standings. “In the SWC you need to beat teams as bad as you can,” said Kent. “Because of the way they have it set up, it’s better to lose to Arkansas 5-4 than beat Baylor 7- 2. ” Arkansas is the top-rated team in the conference this year while Baylor is at the bottom. The singles lineup for the Ags against Southwest Texas State: Trey Schutz, Reid Freeman, Brian Joelson, Tom Judson, Max King and Leonard Smith. Dou bles teams are Freeman-Joelson, Shutz-Smith and Kowal-Judson. Saturday, the line-up is sche duled to be Joelson, Freeman, Schutz, Judson, King and Smith. The only change in doubles is that Kowal-Judson will play the num ber one doubles with the other two teams moving down a notch. “One of our goals at the begin ning of the season was to go into Corpus with record of 10-1,” said Kent. “So far, we’re on schedule with the only loss being to Trinity.” The Corpus Christi Tourna ment is one of the best in the coun try. Twelve nationally ranked teams will be competing in the field of 24 teams. The women’s team will not have an easy time this week, either. The ladies must go on the road to play a lot of tough matches. She said Lamar is no push-over and could take the Ags to the limit. However, the big test comes in Provo. She said the BYU tourna ment is one of the better in the Baseball strike looms I FRI. & TWENTIETH CENTURY-FOX ::;3 i 7:30 P.M. I ADVANCE TICKETS: MON.-FRI. 9-5 & 45 BEFORE SHOWTIME | United Press International TAMPA, Fla. — Baseball’s bat tle lines have been drawn once again. The executive board of the Play- ers’ Association, meeting Wednesday in Tampa, unani mously agreed to strike on May 29, and player representatives fanned out through spring training camps to brief other players on the status of the contract issue. The issue of compensation for free agents has been unresolved since last spring. When a commit tee of two players and two club representatives failed to reach agreement, the owners said Feb. 19 they were invoking a provision ALPHA ZETA SCHOLARSHIPS - Open to all students in College of Agriculture - APPLICATIONS AVAILABLE RM. 217 SCSE BUILDING DEADLINE MARCH 5, 1981 SKYWAY TWIN BOX OFFICE OPENS 6:45 - EAST - SEEMS LIKE OLE TIMES FOOLING AROUND 9:10 - WEST - CHEERLEADERS’ WILD WEEKEND 7:15 10:45 SATAN’S CHEERLEADERS 8:50 to allow teams losing players to free agency to receive compensa tion in the form of an unprotected player on the other team’s roster. Currently, teams losing a player through free agency gain only a player in the amateur draft as com pensation. Marvin Miller, executive direc tor of the players’ association, said Wednesday the action by the own ers left the players with no alterna tive but to act prior to March 1 to sanction a strike. “The players are in a defensive position, taking the only action the contract allows them to prevent the owners from taking back the rights of players and, in our opin ion, taking the first step toward ending free agency altogether,” Miller said. Ray Grebey, head of baseball’s Player Relations Committee, said in New York the players action merely would create crisis and confrontation. “It appears as though the play ers union continues to be more interested in rhetoric and press clippings than it is in the process of collective bargaining,” Grebey said. “The players’ action in sche duling a strike is most regrettable. “Any attempt to shift responsi bility for their action to the 26 ma jor league clubs is without founda tion and entirely inexcusable,” he said. Miller said comments b) New York Yankee owner George Steinbrenner that the owners must be compensated forlostfree agents indicates he doesnt understand the issues. “What he doesn’t understand is that the owners are really aiming this at him. Miller said. “When! say him, I don t mean him alone,! mean those who have operated more successfully under the system. “Wherever I go among owners and general managers, they refer to him as that (expletive deleted) who has caused the whole mess, he said. Miller Said the owners claimed they were concerned only with protecting their top players, but he said their proposal goes much further. “If you will look at their propos al you will see that basically any body in the top 50 percent of al major league players is eligible for having the yoke of compensate placed on him regardless of ho# poor his performance statistics are,” he said. Miller said the players associa tion is ready to continue negotia tions, but said no meetings with club representatives are sche duled.
