The No. 19 Te*a* AAM .
team placed four player* on' the
1965 All-Southwe»t Conference vol
leyball team, selected by SWC
coaches on Monday.
Aggie middle blocker Sherri
Brinkman was named to the first
team for the third year and was a
unanimous choice. She was joined
on the first team by teammate Mar
garet Spence.
A&M setter Lesha Beakley and
outside hitter Stacey GUdner were
named to the second team.
Brinkman, an *64 All-America se
lection, has led the conference in hit
ting the past two years, but once
apain did not win SWC Player of the
. That honor went to Texas’ Diane
Watson, who made the team for the
second year and was also a unani-
■fPl
moos choice.
Brinkman, a 6-foot senior from
Mt. Prospect, 111., was the only unan
imous SWC selection last season, but
the Player of the Year award went to
the Longhorns’ Kim Larson.
■ _ you can do
about (not being named Player of
the Year)," Brinkman said. “I’ve
to live with that. I’m just
about making the team. 1 ap
te everything 1 get and am
glad ~ *> y«** I am very happy.*'
Spence, a 5-foot-It junior who
made second team AB-SWC last sea
son, was moved from outside hitter
to middle blocker in the 19th match
of the season. ^ ' v
**1 am so excited, 4 * Spence
screamed. "That is great. 1 certainly
didn’t expect it with the position
change and everything that hap
pened. This realty shocks me."
Beakley, a 5-foot-5 senior, has
been ranked 15th in the nation'lnja-
sist percentage all season lo«<* ^
“f thinktt’s exciting,'
said. “Knowing this was my last
1 sort of had a goal to make
best season. This will be something
nice to look back on when I’m

“I’ll be glad to take a lie detector
test on that if Coach Sherrill will take
a lie detector test,’’ Tarieton said, ^
adding that the A&M articles were
part o? a continuing series of investi
gations on Southwest Conference re
cruiting practices.

players and their personal records to personal reco
contentions that money was given to
recrups and players during his ten
ure 'and that of his predecessor,
Tom Wilson. Wilson is currently the
offensive coordinator at Texas Tech
and has declined comment on seve
ral occasions.
Responding to the cover-up accu
sations. She mil cited statements at
tributed to an A&M Twelfth Man
kickoff team member. Ronnie
Glenn. The Times Her*Id quoted
Glenn as saying that Sherrill distrib
uted forms during k practice session
for the players to sign. The forms
were intended to keep the Times
Herald's reporters from gaining ac
cess to car registrations and other
ords.
According to the news release
Glenn said he was “completely mis
quoted ’ by the paper. He also re
vealed that he did not sign such a
form until after the first story was
published. Glenn said he wanted to
avoid any future harassment by the
newspaper’s reporters.
However, Tarieton countered
again, "We have these interviews on
tape. The interviews were tape-re
corded if there b any question about
their accuracy."
Sherrill said the forms were an ef
fort to curb harassment bv the re
porters, giving all the players the Op
portunity to present a united front
and avoid being singled out for in
terviews by the paper.
“We simply decided to combat the
paper’s disruptive taetks — ha
rassment is probably not too strong a
term — by the only means available
to us, and that was to limit our con
tact with ks abusive reporters and
protect the players to the best of our
ability so that they could concentrate
on their sallies and preparation for
games," Sherrill explained
the alleged payments
to players, former A&M student
ly Leonard, who served as a tu
tor for ex-A&M player Ernest Jack-
son, was depicted in the story as
knowing of money being given to
jackson.
When Krebs contacted Leonard,
he said the woman was “a lot less
positive about what she had seen and
heard."

Gildner said. "I am very surprised.
Thbjust adds one more good thing
to the season. Tm glad we got so
many on the team, four b a lot for
any team."

diver said he had seen the Times
Herald stories and insisted the Uni
versity was not taking the allegations
tightly. ”
"... 1 do not Find any new infor
mation there (in the newspaper's ar
ticles), and much of what is there has
been brought to our attention pre
viously,’’ Vandiver said in a pre
pared statement. “Some of u has al
ready been studied by the National
Collegiate Athletic Association and
the Southwest Conference and some
of it was under investigation before
the Times Herald stories appeared.
“I do want to state emphatically,
however, that Texas A&M has al
ways been and always will be firmly
committed to honesty and integrity
in all of its (athletic) programs." *
