Aggies shine in final scrimmage
by John P. Lopez
Sports Editor
The Texas A&M football
team couldn’t have asked for
much more from its final full-
contact scrimmage of the pre
season Friday night.
Not only did the Aggies walk
off Kyle Field injury-free after
the hour and a half scrimmage,
but the Aggie backfield proved
that by mid-season, Texas A&M
fans could very well forget what
played last year.
Behind a strong performance
by the offensive line, quarter
back John Mazur connected on
11 of 20 passes and tailbacks
Joey Harris and Keith Woodside
slipped their way through the
second-team defense with appa
rent ease.
The Aggie first-team offense
picked up 20 first downs and
scored five touchdowns during
the scrimmage.
positions Gary Kubiak, Earnest
Jackson and Johnny Hector
Harris and Woodside col
lected the most oohhs and aahhs
from a small crowd of invited
Aggie fans as the two running
backs showed similar jittery
moves on their way to a highly
productive night.
Harris scored four touch
downs en route to his 63 yards
on 12 carries and Woodside
gained 39 yards and a touch
down.
Woodside, a freshman, also
raised a few eyebrows with a
spectacular 39-yard punt re
turn. Woodside pulled in Craig
Stump’s punt, took a few steps to
the right and then exploded
back to the left and down the
sideline before Stump Finally
pushed the Louisiana native
down.
Backup quarterback Kevin
Murray also put on a good show
as he hit on four of eight passes
including a 75-yard toss to
world-class sprinter Rod
Richardson.
Defensively, the Aggies
looked strong as well. Senior Bil
ly Cannon seemed to fit right in
at his new linebacking position
and the Texas A&M secondary
looked much quicker than the
inconsistent secondary of last
year. One reason for the im
proved quickness was freshman

Winning Cowboys concerned,
Oilers optimistic about season
United Press International
DALLAS — It happens from
time to time that the winners of a
football game grumble about
how things are going and the
losers emerge optimistic about
how things are progressing.
That is the case more often
during the exhibition season
than it is during the regular
campaign and that was the way
of tnings Saturday night when
the Dallas Cowboys and Hous
ton Oilers completed their
tuneups for the 1983 race.
Dallas was the winner, 34-31,
in a game that saw the lead
change hands four times in the
fourth quarter. But in this case
the losers sounded more excited
than the winners.
“We’re ready for Green Bay,”
said Houston quarterback
Archie Manning. “We haven’t
won in preseason (in fact the Oil
ers haven’t won a game of any
kind since last Sept. 19), but
we’ve been in the last three

“I see everything failing into
place,” added Earl Campbell,
who scored only tw'o touch
downs in all of 1982 but who
scored twice against the Cow
boys and gained 119 yards in
just over a half of work.
“Everybody came to camp in
good shape and with a better
attitude and it’s beginning to pay
off.”
So Houston is excited about
its opener, which will come at
home next Sunday against the
Packers.
The Cowboys, meanw'hile,
will go to Washington next Mon
day night with concerns about
their defense, which has not
stopped many people during a
3-1 exhibition campaign.
“We are making far too many
mistakes and it is costing us,”
said Dallas coach Tom Landry.
“When you make the mistakes
we have made you are gou
