The tandem of Jeff Granger and Steve Emerson rotated at quarterback for the winning team. The tandem finished 6 of 17 for 60 yards and two intercep tions. Senior tailback Randy Sim mons rushed for 73 yards on 14 carries and fullback Doug Carter amassed 36 yards. Slocum had Richardson sit out of the scrimmage. "I know what Bucky can do in this situation, he would have really upset the balance of the teams with the experience he has," Slocum said. "His team would have had a marked ad vantage." Richardson couldn't help his team watching from the side lines. "I wanted to be out there," Richardson said. "I satoutayear and that was long enough-1 don't like bringing back bad memories." Smith, the winning coach, said the scrimmage was a good opportunity for some of the younger A&M players. "Some of the guys got some good experience," Smith said "It was an advantage formostof the younger guys to get some quality play. The Strictly Business team opened the scoring with two field goals in the first half. The new "elephant offense was installed to punch through the maroon team's touchdown A backfield made up of 6-foot 4, 252-pound defensive lineman Kefa Cnatham and 6-foot-2, 233- pound linebacker Marcus Buck ley, pounded out short gains and ultimately crossed the goal line.

Rudder Exhibit Hall April 23 - May 1 Lewis deserved higher draft Continued from page 5 aren't necessarily A&M supporters, might want to know the status of one of the best runners to ever play college football. When the first four rounds were finished Sunday and Darren hadn't been taken, l thought of former A&M linebacker Aaron Wallace. Wallace, who now plays for the Los Angeles Raiders, was a player like Darren. The two always seemed to play their best when it meant the most. Watching them play was the reason why I became a fan of A&M football. Remember beating Houston and Andre Ware in 1989 at Kyle Field? Wallace and Lewis showed what big-time players can do in the national spotlight. But Darren was more than just a great runner. He was a player wno conducted himself with class — a rare quality in athletes today. A quiet man from Dallas Carter, Darren entertained us for four years, giving everything he had, and last weekend he received little credit for it. If A&M had played better last year and had made a run at the national championship, Darren would probably have teen a first or second round pick. Rumor has it that Darren refused to run the 40-yard dash for NFL scouts, making teams question his speed and attitude Can you blame him? In the pros, the only concerns size and speed. And with his speed, which is not good fora running back, it was probably best that he didn't have a timed run. Even with his lack of break away speed,jt was hard to believe tearrts were passing up Darren and picking players who hadn't done half what he didia college. In the NFL draft, it sometimes seems like teams make their draft selection on what they have on paper. Most of the time that means an athlete's size, speed and strength determine how high he'll be selected. But scouts can't measure hear and it's hard for them to judge ability. Sometimes the scouts make mistakes on players (they're the first ones to admit it), and I think they did in Darren's case. I have no doubt that the Bears making Darren the I6lstpick, got the steal of the draft. And when Darren surprises everyone next year, maybe NE teams will reconsider how the)’ rate players. It took Galileo 16 years to master the universe. You have one night. It seems unfair. The genius had all that time. While you have a few short hours to learn your sun spots from your satellites before the dreaded astronomy exam. On the other hand, Vivarin gives you the definite advantage. It helps keep you awake and mentally alert for hours. Safely and conveniently. So even when the subject matter’s dull, your mind will stay razor sharp. If Galileo had used Vivarin, maybe he could have mastered the solar system faster, too. Reyiw With VIVARIN!
