Glanville pleased
with play of subs
HOUSTON (AP) — The perfor
mances of Houston’s Cody Carlson
and Allen Pinkett on Sunday were
surprising only outside the Oiler or
ganization, Coach Jerry Glanville
said Monday.
Carlson subbed for injured quar
terback Warren Moon and com
pleted two touchdown passes.
Pinkett, filling in for Mike Rozier,
scored his third touchdown with 31
seconds left to play, rallying the Oil
ers to a 38-35 victory over the Los
Angeles Raiders.
Glanville said, “Before the game,
others may have wondered if Cody
Carlson could play well, but no one
with the Oilers was surprised. No
one was surprised the Allen Pinkett
played well.
The Oilers also managed to win
without starting cornerback Steve
Brown, sidelined by a hamstring in
jury.
“We’ve been able to develop some
depth, and that’s a plus for us,”
Glanville said.
The Oilers came from behind
twice to win, starting their game
winning drive with 2:50 left in the
game.
The Oilers also have developed
some confidence, Glanville said.
“When we got the ball with under
three minutes to play, everyone on
the sidelines felt we had them just
where we wanted them,” Glanville
said.

The Oilers’ defensive line also was
a collective star in the game, sacking
Raiders quarterback Steve Beuerlein
five times, including 2 1 /2 by de
fensive end William Fuller.
“Our defensive line sets the tone
with a lot of hard work,” Glanville
said. “It’s fashionable to say that
we’ve got great talent and great ath
letes but the fact is, we work very
hard.”
Glanville also was kind to rookie
cornerback Cris Dishman, who
started for Brown and was penalized
twice in the first three plays of the
game.
Told that Dishman had been de
jected following the game, Glanville
said, “He shouldn’t be down, be
cause he made some great plays. Ev
erything that he did wrong can be
corrected.
“It has nothing to do with athletic
ability.”
The Oilers, among the most heav
ily penalized teams last season, were
flagged 15 times for 186 yards in pe
nalties against the Raiders.
A 28-yard pass interference pen
alty ayainst cornprback Patrick Allen
in the end zone, gave the Raiders the
ball at the Oiler 1-yard line and set
up their final score.
But the Oilers overcame penalties
and injury to remain unbeaten
through four preseason games and
two regular-season contests.
“This is about as much fun as it
gets,” Glanville said.

12th Man served injustice at LSD
EDITOR:
There has been a great injustice done against the 12th Man.
Saturday night, shortly after halftime of the LSU game, my
roommate, his girlfriend and I were escorted out of Tiger Stadium by
four police officers for standing up.
When I tried to tell the officers that it was a tradition here to stand
up during football games, he told us to follow him below the stands.
Once down, the officer told us that we were causing a disturbance and
being discourteous to the fans begind us.
1 tried to point out that there were approximately twenty rows of
Aggie and LSU fans standing in front of us. After this, the officer
grabbed my hands, forced them behind my back, pushed my face into
a chain-link fence, and asked me if I wanted to go to jail.
While this was going on, my roommate and his girlfriend were
also being harrassed by another officer. The two officers then
grabbed our arms and escorted us out of the gate. After being kicked
out of Tiger Stadium, w'e tried to talk to a man with the LSU Athletic
Department about the incident and he told us there w 7 as nothing he
could do.
To say the least, we were very angry and decided that the Texas
A&M student body should know what happened. I have been to many
out-of-town games and have never had anything like this happen to
me.
I think that after the near-riot that LSU fans caused last year at
Kyle Field and the discourteous treatment that Aggies received this
year, the Texas A&M Athletic Department should consider not giving
any tickets to LSU fans next year.

Editor’s note: A&M is contracted to supply a certain number of tick
ets to LSU, as well as any other school that sends its team to Kyle
Field to play the Aggies.
Have some spirit, football playersl
EDITOR:
Recently, my roommate and 1 attended a Texas A&M
women’s volleyball game. We were deeply offended to seeil^
football player sitting below us (obviously a football playeri

participate in the yells led hy our yell leaders.
Yes, those same yell leaders who work diligently toleadtl
entire A&M student body in support of the Aggie footballtei
even through four quarters of a game when our team isdov
feel that it is an insult to the volleyball team, the veilleadersji
to fellow Aggies when a member of our football team doesr*
have the decency to support other athletics in the same wap
we support the football team.
Part of being an Aggie is being able to support all Aggiesi
situations. We are proud of Texas A&M and proud tobeA
and we would like to see everyone able to express theirAgm
Spirit with as much enthusiasm as we do.
Don’t get us wrong, we still love our football team. Wejus
want to encourage them to participate as part of our highly
thought-of student body.
YVe would also like to congratulate the women s volleyball
team in their victory over Northwestern and we would likeii,
think that we share in that victory through our support.
