Aggie Lacrosse
looks to future
By LESLIE MARTIN
Reporter
Running, catching, throwing,
and “pounding the wall” are all
part of the fast-paced sport of
lacrosse.
The Aggie lacrosse team
competed in several pre-season
tournaments last fall and won
over half of its regular season
games this spring. The 36-
member team is its 12th year at
Texas A&M and the players are
anticipating another good sea
son next year.
April but the team always
schedules some pre-season
competition.
“We hosted a tournament in
October and our alumni game
brought former players out of
the woodwork,” Pate said.
Daily practices begin in the
spring with exercises such as
pounding the wall. This is al
lows a player to sharpen his
throwing and catching skills
without a partner by rapidly
bouncing the ball off of a wall.
The lacrosse season begins in
February and runs through
David Barron
Will Balance The Scales
As your County Attorney, he will effectively
prosecute cases and work to insure
the rights of victims of crime.
During his years of private practice, David has gained invaluable
experience. He has been appointed by both district judges to serve
as legal counsel in two separate capital murder cases. He is the only
candidate in the race with experience in the County Court-at-Law
handling misdemeanor criminal and DWI cases. David is also the
only candidate to actively practice both criminal and civil cases.
David will vigorously prosecute DWI offenders and he will
work in close cooperation with the Probation Department to
rehabilitate first time offenders.
One of his top priorities is swift and sure prosecution of
“hot” check writers and shoplifters with emphasis on
restitution to the business community.
Dishonest business practices are growing in our area.
David will use the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act to
its fullest extent as an effective tool in deterring consumer
fraud.
David Barron has the energy and enthusiasm to make our criminal
justice system work. Experience, dedication, and a change of
priorities will make the difference in our County Attorney’s Office.

Po/o team loses /wo horses
Pony deaths questionei
By JAN PERRY
Sports Writer
Two horses donated to Texas
A&M for use by the polo club
both have died within one week
of each other.
A member of the women’s
polo team, Susan Easterling,
said the horses were without
hay for about two days. The an
imals were fed grain, but were
not permitted to graze by the
University. The club is required
to stall-up the horses inside of
the stables every night, Eas
terling said.
“The horses deFinately didn’t
die of malnutrition,” she said.
“If anything, it was over nutri
tion.”
Easterling said the horses
were not allowed to graze be
cause the University stables do
not have adequate facilities. In
Easterling’s mind, the lack of
pasturage and automatic water
ing systems means the horses
are living in an unhealthy envi
ronment.
Because of the lack of a wa
tering system and the overall
poor condition of the stables,
she said the horses are in a dan
gerous situation.
Texas A&M officials feel
otherwise.
University-hired advisors
recommended that the horses
be stabled at night. Their case
— that the horses might injure
themselves on the trees sur
rounding the stable.
Easterling said the club of
fered to remove several of the
trees when the land for the sta
bles was first given to the club,
but were not permitted.
Easterling said the horses are
donated to the University for
the polo club’s use when they
are no longer wanted by their
previous owners.
“Most of the horses we have
are rejects in one way or ano
ther,” Easterling said.
The first horse died on April
11 after suffering a fall from its
trailer.
The veterinarian performing
the autopsy on the animal. Dr.
Levle Gale, was not available for
comment. However, Dr. Kon
rad Eughster, a colleague famil
iar with the case, commented on
the deaths.
“The horse got his foot
caught in its martin gale (a re
straining device used for stead
ying animals in trailers) and
tumbled forward,” Eughster
said.
He said the second horse
died on April 17 of a cardiovas
cular collapse, which was proba
bly caused by endotoxemia.
Endotoxemia is an over
abundance of toxins in the
body. The toxins, which origi
nate in the stomach, enter the
blood stream and can cause a
heart attack. The toxins are
normally present in the horse’s
body to aid in digestion, but ex
cess toxins can be deadly.
Eughster said endotoxemia is
probably the most frequent
cause of death in a horse. He
said the disease can be caused
by an inbalance in nutrition —
usually too much grain and not
enough hay.
Easterling said her main
complaint about the care
horses is that the men

Dallas gears up for home game

DALLAS — The Los Angeles
Lakers have not just made it
hard for the Dallas Mavericks to
win during the first two games
of their best-of-seven playoff se
ries. They have made it hard
for the Mavericks to get the ball
past the midcourt line.
A pressing defense, played
with playoff intensity, has left
Dallas gasping and — at least to
this point — always trailing.
Before they can even con
sider winning a game, the Mav
ericks have to find a way to get
into the flow of their offense
and they will try to do that Fri
day night in Game 3 of the con
ference semifinal series.
Tipoff is 8 p.m. CDT at Re
union Arena with the fourth
game scheduled for Sunday af
ternoon. Dallas must win one of
those for the series to return to
Los Angeles next week.
Los Angeles coach Pat Riley,
whose team was beaten three
out of five times by Dallas dur
ing the regular season, came
into the series with a high re
gard for the Mavericks’ pat
terned offense.
He felt they ran it as well as
anyone in the NBA. But if Dal
las cannot run of its offense, it is
not much of a threat. So the or
ders went out to swarm the
Mavericks all over the court.
“They played us so well dur
ing the regular season because
they were able to run their of
fense,” said Riley. “What we are
doing differently now is pres
suring them. You cannot afford

But owning a condo shows such economical taste.

appreciation.
