The Texas A&M men’s tennis
team lost 5-2 to North Carolina
Tuesday afternoon at the Omar
Smith Tennis Center.
The loss dropped the Aggies to
11-3 on the year.
“North Carolina has a good
team,” A&M Coach David Kent
said. “They just outplayed us.”
A&M had to play without No. 3
singles player Marcel Vos, who is
out with the flu. Vos also teams
with Dean Goldfine to make up
the No. 1 doubles team.
The Aggies dropped each of
the top three singles matches in
straight sets. But Kent was
pleased with No. 4 Brent Ha-
garth’s 2-6, 6-2, 6-3 victory over
Mark Demattis.
“Brent broke out of his slump
and played some real good ten
nis,” Kent said. “That should help
us in our upcoming matches.”
The other Aggie win came
from No. 5 Steve Kennedy, who
defeated Don Johnson, 6-2, 3-6,
7-5.
A&M will take on No. 6 SMU
1:30 p.m. Thursday at the Omar
Smith Tennis Center. SMU’s
Richie Reneberg is the No. 1 sin
gles player in the nation.
“We hope to bounce back
against SMU,” Kent said. “With
Marcel back, we’ll have a shot at
them.”

on outcome of resolution ,h
HOUSTON (AP) — The chair
man of Houston’s athletic advisory
committee said he wants a resolution
passed severing all of former head
football coach Bill Yeoman’s ties to
the university.
Documents released Monday
quote a school booster saving Yeo
man received about S11,000 cash so
he could make traditional payments
of $250 to $500 to players, a viola
tion of National Collegiate Athletic
Association rules.
The resolution will be presented
at a committee meeting today, chair
man Bruce Oppenheimer said.
Monday’s revelations from Bay-
town businessman Frank Terry con
tradict a previous report by Yeoman
in which he said h

Ex-president:
Resignation
forced by SMU
FORT WORTH (AP) — A former
Southern Methodist University pres
ident says he lost his job more than a
decade ago because he refused to go
along with improper payments to
student athletes.
“The boosters and (SMU) board
(of governors) indicated to me that
they did not feel like they could run
a competitive program if the presi
dent was looking over their shoulder
trying to keep them clean,” said Paul
Hardin, who resigned as SMU presi
dent in 1974.
The Fort Worth Star-Telegram
reported Tuesday that Hardin was
forced to leave the school because
some members of the Board of Gov
ernors felt the football program
could not be competitive with a
school president who watched it too
closely.
Hardin was SMU president from
1972 to 1974. He is now president of
Drew University, a small liberal-arts
college in New Jersey.
Recounting his efforts to stop the
bonus payments, Hardin said: “First,
an infraction was reported by the
parent of a player. I called Dave
Smith, who was the athletic director
at the time, and he admitted it was
going on.
“I cut his contract from three
years to one year, placed him on
probation and reported the violation
to the Southwest Conference. One
month later, I was asked to resign.”
Hardin said the violations in
volved players on specialty teams
who were getting “a few' bucks for
tackles, recovering fumbles and
other things.”
From the Associated Press
The Big Ten, the only major con
ference without a post-season tour
nament, has a chance this year to
make the NCAA tournament its
own.
With six teams in the field of 64
and four in the first 11 of the AP
Top Twenty, the Conference could
turn the Final Four in New Orleans
into an All-Big Ten affair.
“The poorest seed we got was
nine,” Iowa Coach Tom Davis said.
“Now all we’ve got to do is win some
games.”
Indiana is ranked No. 3, Iowa No.
6, Purdue No. 7 and Illinois No. 1 1
in the final Top Twenty, which
might bode well for a meeting in
New Orleans.
But Illinois Coach Lou Henson
remembers what happened last year
when the Big Ten also put six teams
in the tournament.
“Last year, the top teams were
rolled over by upsets in the first
round,” Henson said. “I think that
will happen again.”
Last year’s conference champion
Michigan beat Akron 70-64 before
being eliminated 72-60 by Iowa
State.
Indiana fell 83-79 to Cleveland
State in the opening round last year
and Purdue lost 94-87 in double
overtime in the first round to Final
Four-bound Louisiana State.
Iowa was eliminated in the open
ing round 66-64 by North Carolina
State and Illinois beat Fairfield 75-
51 before losing to Alabama 58-56.
Michigan State, which did not
make the NCAA field this year, went
the farthest of any Big Ten team last
year, defeating Washington 72-70
and Georgetown 80-68 before losing
to Kansas 96-86.
Ohio State, which is the ninth seed
in the Southeast Regional this year,
won the National Invitational Tour
nament last year after finishing sev
enth in the Big Ten under former-
Coach Eldon Miller. Ohio State, 19-
12, has a first-round game Friday at
Atlanta against Kentucky, 18-10.
Michigan, the Big Ten’s other
ninth-seeded team with a 19-11 sea
son record, plays Navy, 26-5, in a
first-round East Regional game
Thursday at Charlotte, N.C.
Indiana, the Big Ten champs at
24-4 overall, is in the NCAA tourna
ment for the 16th time. The Hoo-
siers are top seeded in the Midwest
and play Fairfield, 15-15, on Thurs
day at Indianapolis. Iowa, second
seeded in the West at 27-4, plays
Santa Clara, 18-13, on Friday in
Tucson.

Davis has said all year he is
