Thomas said the recent cold

have no indoor training facility,
y practice outside, even for

kept the track team from

at films of Richardson’s per

“He was only inches away
from placing,” Thomas said.
“We expect him to do better this

Gymnasts’ unbeaten record on line against UT
by Bill Robinson
Battalion Staff
Texas A&M University gym
nasts, fresh off a record-setting
victory over the University of
Texas, will take on the Lon
ghorns again Saturday night in
Austin’s Gregory Gym. The
meet will begin at 7 p.m.
The Aggies, now 3-0 on the
season and leading the Texas
Gymnastics Conference, scored
198.6 points Saturday to set a
Texas A&M record and win the
triangular meet with UT and the
of
Texas —
University
Arlington.
The victory marked the first
time Texas A&M had ever defe
ated the Horns, who have won
two consecutive TGC cham
pionships. The Aggies won four
of the six events.
Texas A&M’s four victories
came in the floor exercise, still-
rings, vault and high bar, with
competitors also placing high in
the parallel-bars and pommel
horse.
Aggie co-captain Mark Hart
well, a third year veterinary stu
dent from Austin, won three
events in leading Texas A&M to
victory. The Aggies also re
ceived good performances from
All-Arounder David Semon, a
senior physics major, who won
the Aggies other event.
All-arounder John Kemp, an
electrical engineering major
from Austin, placed fourth in
the overall competition, having
finished second on the high bar
and fourth on the rings.
“We’re really proud of John,”
Hartwell said. “He’s a freshman
and he was top on the team in his
first meet as an All-arounder.
Hartwell’s praise was not li
mited to Kemp. “Marty Hardell
(a freshman petroleum en
gineering major from Irving)
also had a very good perform
ance and we look for a lot out of
him during the season,” Hart
well added.
Hartwell said he expects the
Aggies to do well again Saturday
and hopes they can defeat the
very good Longhorn team.
Reds, Mets agree to ‘principle’
trade for Foster, two others
United Press International
NEW YORK — The question
of where George Foster will play
this year now depends on how
high the New York Mets are will
ing to stack their money.
The 33-year-old outfielder,
on the option year of his con
tract with the Cincinnati Reds,
will land in Shea Stadium if
Mets’ Chairman of the Board
Nelson Doubleday agrees to pay
more than $ 1 million a year over
five years, plus a $1 million in
terest-free loan.
“It is important for us to have
someone like George Foster
playing for us,” said Doubleday.
“It makes us a viable ballclub.”
The Mets and the Reds
agreed Thursday to a trade, in
principle, that would deliver the
All-Star outfielder for at least
two players, catcher Alex Trevi
no and probably relief pitcher
Jim Kern.
Foster’s agent, Tom Reich, is
expected to begin talks with the
Mets “within 24 hours.” The
word used by Mets’ General
Manager Frank Cashen was “im
minently.”
The Reds think highly of Tre
vino, 24, who hit .262 last season
in 56 games and who also can
play third. Kern, acquired from
Texas during the off-season for
second baseman Doug Flynn, is
trying to rebound from pro
longed physical problems.
Outside possibilities to be
shipped to Cincinnati are Ed
Lynch, a 25-year-old righthand
er who showed ability before
suffering arm trouble in 1981,
and Jesse Orosco, 24, a lefth
ander who could help in the
Reds’ bullpen.
Neil Allen, the Mets’ prized
reliever, appeared attractive to
the Reds hut the Mets had
signed him to a two-year,
$800,000 contract and that
made departure more likely for
Kern.
“Somehow I had a feeling I
was still in transit,” said Kern.
“On paper it just didn’t look
right. I’ve been waiting and
watching.”
Doubleday pledged upon
assuming ownership in 1980
that he would spend earnestly to
improve the team but so far has
acquired no player approaching
the magnitude of Foster.
In the 1981 strike-shortened
season, Foster hit .295 with 22
home runs and 90 RBI, missing
by only one of tying Philadel
phia’s Mike Schmidt for the RBI
crown.
