more’s 4-1 win in Game 2. Or,
as he recalled Thursday —
“That’s the most frightening
thing that can happen to a guy
at the plate.”
But, fortunately, Ford was
unhurt and he will be in the
lineup Friday night against
Steve Carlton in the third
game of the World Series.
Ford had the presence of
mind Thursday to recount his
thoughts at the lime of the
beaning.
“You see the ball coming
and you have no time to
think,” he said. “I didn’t react
quickly or well. But the ball
never hit me. It grazed the bill
of my helmet and my helmet
knocked my glasses off my
face.
“When I was laying on the
ground, I knew I was hit. But
it never occurred to me that I
was hurt until they asked,
‘Where is the pain coming
from?’
“I was in shock. I got hit in
the head and I’m thinking,
‘What am I going to do now?”’
Ford said the only pain he
felt was where his glasses
pushed against his eyebrow.
He received care for that area
of his face but otherwise was
all right.
“Once I thought about it, I
didn’t have much pain,” he
said.

in Wednesday night’s 4-1 vic
tory.
Owens’ message to his hitters
can be summed up in two words
— patience and discipline.
“The key (to hitting) which
we were trying to tell the players
last night is that with a pitcher
like that (Boddicker), you’ve got
to hit what you can see,” Owens
said Thursday during the Phil
lies’ workout at Veterans Sta
dium. “You can’t go up there
looking for something.
“Flanagan is a lot like the one
we faced last night. You know
he’s not going to go out and blow
the ball by you.”
For veteran Phillies such as
Joe Morgan and Gary Matthews,
it’s a matter of adjusting to pitch
ers they haven’t seen before.

Missouri will have to work
to oust Nebraska from 1st
United Press International
Missouri showed the Big
Eight how it was done last week.
The Tigers will now have to
show a lot more in their bid to
oust Nebraska from its No. 1
ranking.
In its best offensive perform
ance of the season last week, Mis
souri massacred Colorado 59-
20. Nebraska, however, is
another story.
Missouri coach Warren Pow
ers, who played at Nebraska
during the early 1960s, hopes
the Tigers will find a team
weakened by a steady pounding
from Oklahoma State, which
narrowly missed a tremendous
upset in losing 14-10 to the Cor-
nhuskers last Saturday.
“We’ve got to go out believing
we can win and that may be the
key,” says Missouri defensive
end Bobby Bell. “All 11 guys,
have to play together with confi
dence.
“I have confidence in our
team. You gotta be crazy to work
year-round as a football player
and think we can’t beat Nebras
ka. That’s not what I came to
Missouri for.”
Eight, where Nebraska is seek
ing to repeat as league cham
pion. Overall, the Huskers are
6-0 to Missouri’s 3-2.
Unbeaten and second-
ranked Texas meets Arkansas.
The Longhorns last week had to
rally to beat Oklahoma 28-16 for
their fourth straight victory.
Twice in the last 12 years a
nationally ranked Texas team
played at Little Rock and both
times the Longhorns lost. The
Razorbacks again host the Tex
ans in Arkansas’ capital city
Saturday.
The teams are 1-0 in the Big “Personally, I think Texas is
the number one team in the
country,” said Arkansas coach
Lou Holtz. “Nebraska is a great
team, but Texas is awesome.
Some people have Nebraksa
playing in the NFL on Sunday.
If that’s so, Texas should be
playing Monday night.”
In other games, No. 3 North
Carolina plays North Carolina
State, No. 4 West Virginia meets
Virginia Tech, No. 6 Georgia

State goes against No. 14 Illi

“You have to see a guy a time
or two,” Morgan said. “That’s
one thing about a World Series
— you haven’t seen the pitcher
before. That was the trouble
with Boddicker. I didn’t know
what to expect until I actually
saw him.”
“That guy (Boddicker) threw
so many breaking balls that you
knew what was coming, but you
still couldn’t hit it.”
The Phillies are glad to be
back at Veterans Stadium, which
is considered a hitters’ ballpark.
They ripped the Los Angeles
Dodgers for 22 hits in back-to-
back 7-2 victories last weekend
in the final two games of the Na
tional League Championship
Series.

Howdy Ags!
I’m looking forward to seeing you again October 16 & 17.It’s been a while since I’ve been to the finest school in the
land — A&M!
I remember the powerful things that God did when Rosie Greer and I spoke out by the fountain and around campus.
Since that time last spring, I have appeared on several talk shows, traveled from Australia to California to the East
Coast -- and talked about you guys too.
Monday afternoon I’ll be presenting my Creation VS Evolution Seminar in Rudder at 2:00 in room 301. Every
student in Aggieland needs to be there.
I’ll be in Rudder Tower at 7:30 Sunday the 16th and Monday the 17th. I’d like to see some of you whom I got to know
the last time I came. I’d like to see some new faces too! So come on out Sunday and Monday night. Bring your Corps
buddies, best friend, girlfriend, or whomever!! You just be sure and come. See you then!!
In the name of Jesus,
Rice Broocks
