Speedway
April race
postponed
There will be no Indy car race at
Texas World Speedway on April 5.
Cold and wet weather conditions
the past three weeks have not
allowed sufficient work to be done
on the race track.
Once the work is finished, tires
must be tested and manufactured,
and last week CART decided
there was not sufficient time to do
it.
No decision has been reached
on a new date for the race later in
the year as other scheduling con
flicts must be worked out.
The Great Texas Truck Race for
the 10-wheel diesel bobtail trucks
will take place May 3, and the
third annual NASCAR 400 will be
run June 7.
Anyone who has purchased
tickets for the Indy car race can
either hold them until the post
poned date, exchange them for
another event or receive a refund.

AUSTIN — Norm Stewart
arns that his Missouri Tigers
be playing Russian roulette
to look past Lamar to fourth-
| ranked LSU in the NCAA Tourna
ment.
Big Eight champion Missouri
remembers LSU as the team
which knocked it out of the NCAA
Tournament in the third round
I last year, but before it can keep a
Saturday afternoon date with the
: Louisiana team, it must beat
Lamar tonight in the first round of
S the Midwest Regional.
Arkansas is a heavy favorite to
/ defeat Mercer in the second of the
first-round games at the Universi
ty of Texas’ Erwin Special Events
Center. The winner of that game
advances to play Louisville, which
the meet drew a bye through the
ie held at first round '
ist Enct'
Oddsmakers, however, make
Missouri a 45-1 shot to win the
tournament, while Lamar’s bet
ting line is 50-1.
Foster pointed to the battle be
tween 6-11 Missouri center Steve
Stipanovich and 6-8 Lamar center
B.B. Davis as a key to the game,
but Stewart said that matchup was
one of many of the important fac
tors.

Oddsmakers make Mfisspuri,,
22-9, a slight favorite to beat
Lamar, 24-4, a Texas team from
the Southland Conference, de
spite an early season 92-70 win
over the Cardinals.
Missouri forward Curtis Berry
compared Lamar to Big Eight foe
Kansas, a team which knocked the
Tigers out of the conference post
season tournament following their
in in the regular season.
Stewart Wednesday strongly
dicated his team had better not
e underestimating Lamar.
k — “I hope there is absolutely no
hance, that that is a zero factor,”
e said, “because I think my play
ers understand basketball, today’s
basketball. All the teams here are
jjuality teams. Some are over
looked, but all are quality. ”
j He added, “If you are going to
overlook someone at this point,
you are playing Russian roulette.
There’s no reason to be overconfi-
I dent.”
I Lamar Coach Pat Foster said he
placed his team, which the NCAA
j selection committee seeded one
notch higher than Missouri, in the
"overlooked” category.
“It’s understandable,” he said,
"because we haven’t been on na
tional TV or regional TV. That
happens. It’s no big — well, it’s a
! big deal to us, but it’s not to other
people.”
Lamar scoring leader Mike
Olliver, when he met with the
media following a workout
Wednesday, seemed excited with
the opportunity to play Missouri
again. He said Lamar did not re
spect Missouri before the first
meeting on the Tigers’ home
court.
“It’ll be a different story this
time because we know Missouri is
a tough team. Right now we’re
playing better ball than we were at
any other time of the year. And it’s
the right time. We have some
thing to prove to Missouri,” he
said.
Lamar is the eighth-seeded
team in the 12-team Midwest Re
gional; Missouri is ninth-seeded.

LUBY’S MANAGER $90,000/yr
Seem hard to believe? The average Luby's Cafeterias, Inc. manager did earn
over $90,000 last year. The average training period to become a manager is 6 to
8 years. Managers attain these earnings by collecting a share of the net profits
from their own cafeteria. The average associate manager last year earned
$50,000. This earning level is attainable in 3 to 5 years.
To become a manager of one of our cafeterias is a very special business oppor
tunity. You'll be joining an ambitious and progressive company that requires
more of its managers than any food chain in the Sunbelt. Local managers are
decision making businessmen who are responsible for all purchasing, menu
planning, and hiring of personnel. We grant our managers a great deal of
autonomy, and treat them as business partners. Luby's Cafeterias, Inc. is a firm
believer in promoting from within; hence, most Corporate Officers are former unit
managers.
Luby's Cafeterias, Inc. is not restricting interviews to only Business majors; we're
open to all degrees. We're looking for people who are interested in becoming
dynamic, aggressive, and well paid business people. If that's your goal, then
we're looking for you!
