ike to .480.
Dave Conception contributed
|ree hits including the only dou
ble in the Reds’ 11-hit attack, but
Berenyi was the force that stopped
Houston’s 12-game home win
streak. He allowed only four hits
and struck out 12 batters, nine in a
streak from the fourth inning to
the ninth when he set down 20
straight hitters.
“All I threw were the fastball
and the slider. They were both
working well. I kept telling myself
before the game that I was gonna
mix a couple of change-ups in, but
I didn’t need to,” Berenyi said.
Unfortunately for the Reds,
they can’t take a winning combina
tion — Berenyi pitching in the
Astrodome — with them on the
road. He’s 3-0 under a roof this
year, and his performance Mon
day was his best, Astros Manager
Bill Virdon said.
“That’s about the best stuff and
the best natural stuff as I’ve seen
in a long time. His fastball and his
breaking ball are similar to J.R.’s
stuff,” Virdon said, referring to
idled Astros all-star pitcher J.R.
Ricahrd.
Berenyi pitched under pressure
the entire game partly due to
Bench’s fielding error in the first
inning. He failed to barehand a
grounder, and Houston pushed
across an unearned run later in the
inning to tie the score 2-2.
Bench’s two-run single in the
first temporarily gave the Reds a
lead, and with his team leading 3-2
in the eighth, he singled to send
Conception home from second
base with an insurance run.

Oakland stops Texas 5-2
United Press International
ARLINGTON — If they could
rig it the Oakland A’s would prob
ably love to face the Texas Rangers
in the first round of baseball’s
marathon post-season playoffs.
But to do that the A’s would
probably have to lose a few games
to the Rangers while the regular
season is still going on and that
seems to be next to impossible.
Oakland handled Texas with
dispatch Monday night, jumping
on the staggering Rangers for four
early runs and relying on another
steady performance from Rick
Langford to come away with a 5-2
decision.
The game had a certain drab
tint, which even Oakland manager
Billy Martin had to admit.
“Yeah,” he said, “it was dull,
but it was a nice kind of dull. Texas
had a chance to come back, but
Rick shut them down and he
pitched good after that.”
“It’s good when you get some
early runs behind you, ” said Lang
ford, who evened his record at 9-
9. “That way you can keep them
from getting momentum.”
On a staff that makes a habit of
staying around to the finish, Lang
ford has stayed around longer than
anybody this year. He went the
distance for the 15th time Monday
night, a total that leads the league,
and had only one shaky inning in
surrendering seven hits, walking
one and striking out one.
Langford’s one lapse came in
the second when Texas got its only
two runs on consecutive singles by
Buddy Bell, Pat Putnam and Jim
Sundberg along with an RBI
ground out from Tom Poquette.
Only four other Rangers
reached base the rest of the night.
Cliffjohnson figured prominen
tly in the early Oakland heroics,
doubling in the first and scoring
the A’s initial run on a single by
Tony Armas. Then, in the second,
Texas loser Doc Medich, now 8-5,
walked the first two men he faced
and delivered a run-scoring single
to Dave McKay.
After a two-out intentional walk
to load the bases Medich faced
Johnson again and the A’s desig
nated hitter blooped a single to
center that scored two runs and
gave Oakland a 4-0 lead.
The other Oakland run came in
the sixth on a homer by Wayne
Gross, his ninth of the season.
Oakland climbed back to the
.500 mark for the second portion
of the season while the Rangers
and their weak bats dropped four
games below the break even
mark.
Cowboy center Shaw
on doubtful list for game
United Press International
DALLAS — Dallas Cowboys
center Robert Shaw has been
placed on the doubtful list with a
strained knee, meaning the club
will likely have to undergo
another round of changes in the
offensive line when it meets New
England next Monday night.

during Dallas’ 30-17 win over St.
Louis last Sunday, requiring start
ing right tackle Jim Cooper to
move to the center spot. Backup
tackle Andy Frederick came in to
replace Cooper.
Dallas’ other full-time center,
John Fitzgerald, was placed on the
injured reserve list before the
start of the season and for him to
rejoin the Cowboys he must clear
waivers.
The club, however, cannot
attempt to make that move until
four weeks deep in the season.

TO THE FACULTY
Dear Colleagues,
On Monday, May 4, 1981 a brief questionnaire was sent to all members of the Texas A&M University Faculty. It
asked for a response to two statements. They were as follows:
Please check one:
I am interested in increasing the faculty’s role at Texas A&M,- and I support the investigation into
the methods by which that goal may be achieved.
I am not interested in increasing the faculty’s role at Texas A&M, and I do not support the
investigation into the methods by which that goal may be achieved.
Optional:
Name
Rank
College
The responses to these questions produced the following results.
1) Number of responses - 594
2) Yes 538 (91%)
3) No 40 ( 8%)
4) Undecided 7
The positive responses were spread fairly evenly throughout the ten colleges of the University. The number of
positive (yes) responses in the ten colleges was as follows:
Agriculture Architecture Business Education Engineering
78 of 92= 19 of 20= 19 of 21 = 30 of 31 = 67 of 81 =
85% 95% ' 90% 97% 83%
Geo. Sciences Liberal Arts Science Medicine Vet. Medicine
31 of 32 = 95 of 97 = 62 of 64 = 25 of 25 = 34 of 38 =
97% 98% 97% 100% 89%
The faculty whose names are listed below prepared the questionnaire in response to the suggestions and
concerns of a considerably larger number of faculty who have expressed a long-standing interest in enhancing the
role of the faculty in university governance at Texas A&M.
Because of the very affirmative response to the questionnaire, we now seek advice on how to proceed further.
We also encourage all interested members of the faculty to join with us in this important endeavor, by contacting one
or more of the signatories listed below.
To encourage the participation of the faculty at large, we are calling a meeting of all interested faculty on
October 15, at 4 p.m. in Rudder Theater.
