field, sweaty and much more
lively than before.
At 1:42, Houston is still on the
field.
At 1:43, Houston is still on the
field.
At 1:44 — T-minus 16:00 —
Houston is still on the field.
Jones is on the phone to the
P.A. announcer. "As soon as
that bunch gets off, get the in
vocation on!"
Can't he just tell the Houston
coach to get his team off the
field? "I won't do it now, but
he'll hear from us!"
It is T-minus 15:44, and the
situation is getting "not funny."
At least this game wasn't tele
vised. Two weeks before, Okla
homa State stayed on the field 5
minutes too long, and CBS was
not delicate in expressing its dis
pleasure, Jones says. Houston
and OSU are the only teams that
have caused this problem dur
ing Jones's four-year career at
Texas A&M.
Finally, at T-minus 15:42, the
Cougars head for the locker
room, and the announcer, with
the speed of an album played at
45 rpm, introduces the invoca
tion and the bands.
T-minus 14:55: the national
anthem.
T-minus 12:25: "Texas, Our
Texas."
T-minus 10:04: the Houston
alma mater.
The Aggie Club will go on 6
minutes and 36 seconds late.
Jones has lined them up and
honed the announcer to let
im know that everyone sche
duled to receive a plaque is there
as planned, so he can read the
introductions as written.
The Aggie Club is on. Base
ball coach Tom Chandler juggles
his hat and the plaque he is giv
ing, trying to pose for the photo
grapher Jones has hirea. The
plaque recipients will receive a
photo to remember the occa
sion.
Jones has scheduled a 10-
minute cushion of time around
the plaque presentation to allow
for any delays in the schedule.
At 1:54, everything is caught up.
"Nothing can go wrong that he
can't alter," Pruitt says.
The schedule "suggests" that
Houston come back on the field
at 1:55 p.m., but of course the
players are not ready yet.
Jones says that is just one of
those things he can't control.
Two weeks earlier, the OSU
team ran on 30 seconds too ear
ly, and all he could say was,
"Well, I'm not gonna stand in
front of them!"
While we wait, an assistant
athletic director from Houston
approaches Pruitt. He has to get
to the press box, which only can
be reached by the elevator on the
other side of the locker room. -
tragedy.
9:30© ★★★ “The RA Expedi
tions” (1974) Documentary. Nar
rated by Thor Heyerdahl and Ros-
coe Lee Browne. Thor Heyerdahl
and his crew of eight embark on a
two-month trans-Atlantic voyage
on a raft constructed of papyrus
reeds and rope.
10:30 © ★ ★ Vi “Shout At The Devil”
(1976) Lee Marvin, Roger Moore.
A boozer and a strait-laced Briton
take on a squad of Germans in an
African river delta during World
War I.
© ★ ★★ “Once Upon A Time In
The West” (Part 1) (1969) Henry
Pruitt escorts him to the door,
then shakes his head and shows
him how to exit the stadium and
get to the elevator from the
stands.
"They're having a team meet
ing," he explains. Could you get
through the locker room if you
wanted to? "Oh, God!" That
clearly means no; team meetings
are sacred.
At T-minus 3:00, the Cougars
run on the field. The Aggies are
right behind them, and the coin
toss is announced with 1 mi
nute, 9 seconds left. The kickoff
will be late, but only by seconds.
T-minus 43 seconds, and the
band plays the "Spirit of Aggie-
land." Jones "humps it" like any
adopted Good Ag should (he
got his bachelor's degree from
Delta State University in Cleve
land, Miss, and his master's
from Mississippi State).
Kickoff, and the game is on.
Jones has nothing to worry ab
out now, except for halftime, the
H public announcements he has
edited for this game (in addition
to the 20 or so announcements
made at every game), and after
game interviews requested by
the press.
For away games, Jones only
has to worry about coordinating
the radio show. But the next
Aggie home game looms on the
horizon, from march-in to inter
view hour, awaiting his sche
dule.
