Boston Red Sox officials say they're not interested in trading their All Star pitcher. But Clemens said he is encour aged by media reports of early trade talks between the Red Sox and Texas Rangers. "I'd love to come closer to home," Clemens said Monday at a celebrity golf tournament south of Houston. "Anybody in his right mind would." The Rangers appeal to Clemens for several reasons: He would be closer to home and his two young children. And he would like to return to the "environment" in which he grew up and pitched, at Hous ton's Spring Woods High School and at the University of Texas in Austin. He said he liked the prospect of pitching for a team he considers a pennant contender. The Red Sox finished last in the American League East with a record of 73- 89. "I'm concerned with our ball- club," he said of the Red Sox. "Finishing last for the first time wasn't a great deal of fun." Clemens, 30, said he isn't sure how sincere Boston officials are about keeping him. He said he was surprised to learn through the media of a possible deal with Texas. He all but ruled out a desire to play for the Houston Astros, say ing the price they would have to pay would gut the team of its tal ent. "And I'd be back in the same boat." For all the talk, though, Clemens said he did not expect to be traded. Rangers managing general partner George W. Bush told Dallas Morning News it may impossible to work out a with the Red Sox. Club sources cently indicated that Boston* interested in major league run-leader Juan Gonzalez. "I don't think Boston wants get rid of (Clemens)," Bushsai: Monday. "We've called tb: every year and told themofon interest, and they've never cale: back. As far as I know, they’n happy with him. "I wish there was somethin! there, but I don't think thereis" Wednes Se THE BELG1 ian poli clashed demonst ern Kosc tential h ih what i I In Sar, U.N. offi goslav f< Ion was ian capita Linemen Cedri hind the line, Dausin said blocl to Lady Aggies Continued from Page 7 Givens said that tonight's match will give Williams a chance to strut her stuff and expand upon her improvement in practice. "She's not had the opportunity to start before, but we felt she was ready, and she said she was ready," he said. "We're going to give her the chance to prove it. "In practice, she's been playing well, and has earned the right to start." Givens has made another move to shake up A&M's stagnant of fense, removing Genny Wood from her setting duties and play ing her exclusively at outside at tacker in order to improve the Lady Aggies' passing. "Part of our offensive problems stem from our problems at the passing game," Givens said. "Genny is our best passer, and Suzy (Wente) is starting to get a feel (for playing setter at the col lege level)." The A&M junior and leader in assists has put her personal goals second to team needs with her new duties. "It'll be different for me," Wood said. "I'll have more pass ing responsibilities, and that's what we need." Givens spoke highly of Wood and her commitment to her team mates. "Genny is a team player," he said. "Her attitude is 'Whatever I can do for the team to get better.' "That (playing her exclusively at attacker) would be like taking your quarterback and moving him to running back, if you want to use that analogy." Wood and her teammates might want to take on the attitude of a mean, hard-hitting linebacker tonight as they try to regain the killer instinct that the Lady Aggies used so well earlier in the season. A&M flew out to hot siarts against Texas Tech and Houston, but were unable to slam the door in each match. "Right now, we're looking to be more consistent and not let teams come back like against Houston," she said. "I mean, we were kick ing their butts in the first game and let them come back. "Once they (A&M opponents) start playing better, we have to, too." Whether the Lady Aggies will get the chance to be tested tonight is a mystery. Baylor has won eight of their last nine matches, but their only conference win has come against lowly Rice. Despite any questions about the lack of a tough schedule, Bay lor's individual numbers are some of the best in the conference. Heather Williams leads the SWC in kill average at 3.81 per game, followed by teammate Jen ny DeLue with 3.29. And setter Cory Siverston is second in the conference in hitting percentage with a .397 clip. Baylor's potent offense carries a team hitting percentage of .265 into the match, compared to A&M's .179. Continued from Page 7 "It was a big factor having him back last week." Ellisor said he was especially pumped up for the Tech game, since he had been doing one of his least favorite things for two games —watching from the side lines. "I had been sitting out for two weeks, and I came ready to play," Ellisor said. "Sitting on the side line sucks." A&M head coach R.C. Slocum, who saw Ellisor, Harrison and Wesley miss spring practice be cause of injuries, said he felt his line had progressed a great deal, and that the unit had done a good job of recovering from the time missed. "I'm really pleased with the progress the line has made, con sidering the time they missed dur ing the spring," Slocum said. "They have established that we can run the ball pretty effective- 1 y" Slocum also said one of the rea sons the line was beginning to en joy success was the number of leaders he had within the squad. "When John returned, that gave us the senior leadership we had been missing for the past few weeks," Slocum said. "Dausin is also a leader-type of player, and we've also seen a lot of improve ment in our line. We've seen Jason Mathews get better each week, and I hope everything keeps falling into place." With running backs like Hill and Rodney Thomas running^ be ing became that nufch sweeter. "With those two back th any defense we play isjustgoiri to be shaking in their pants, Dausin said. "I especiallylili watching Rodney, becauseli won't try to juke anyone,he'lljuj run over them "Any lineman will tell you, when a back gives that extraeftnt and gives as much effort astli line does, it really pumps you up, If you see Rodney or Greggointi the secondary and put someom on their back, it gives meevei more incentive to play even hard er."

That's right, those pesky AP sports writers get to decide who comes to the Cotton Bowl and play our boys on New Year's Day, a situation that must stick in the craw of every God-fearing coach in America. There is something this season known as the Bowl Alliance. What that means, in simple terms, is that the four major bowls not locked into conference matchups will share the wealth in an attempt to match up the two best available teams on New Year's Day. The Rose Bowl is not part of the alliance since it hosts tlie win ner of the Pac-10 conference against the winner of the Big 10 conference, which today would be Washington and Michigan, both of whom are ahead of the Aggies. That leaves us with the Cot ton, Sugar, Orange and Fiesta bowls as the major players in the alliance, all having an opportuni ty to host a national champi onship contest. The alliance includes those four bowls and the conference representative which goes with all but the Fiesta bowl, and teams that are independent of any bowl affiliation, including Miami, Florida State and Notre Dame. The winner of the Southwest Conference goes to the Cotton Bowl, the Southeast Conference champion goes to the Sugar Bowl, and the Big 8 winner goes to the Orange Bowl. As of today, those three teams would likely be A&M, Alabama and Colorado. The Alliance will match the highest-ranked independent team with the highest-ranked team represented in either the Cotton, Orange, or Sugar bowls. Or if two independents are ranked ahead of the conference teams, then they will play in the Fiesta Bowl. That would mean that Miami, currently ranked second behind Rose Bowl bound Washington by just one point, would play Alaba ma and any chance the Aggies have at a national title would be gone. The Aggies aren't getting nearly as much respect from the writers as an undefeated team that has played quality op- ponenets should be getting. That is unfortunate, but un derstandable. We played what was per ceived to be a good Texas Tech team and squeaked by them on a last second field goal. Uunfortunately, Tech marched into Raleigh, N.C. the next week and had their heads handed to them on the way out of town as 25th-ranked North Carolina State went on to a 48-13 romp and upped their record to 5-2. That is not the worst of it, Stanford is lurking back at the eighth spot this week and if they beat No. 1 Washington in he weeks, watch out. And there is an ugly mood on! there when it comes totheAg- 1 gies. We all know that the Aggie; | traveled to California in Augusi and defeated the Cardinal, spoil ing the homecoming of Bill. Walsh. But there aren't many people out there who think we would beat them this week. 1 spoke to one AP voter who said exactly that, and then voted ac cordingly. So let the team play, and the coaches coach, and go out to Kyle Field, and yell until you cough up a lung Saturday because tins team has got to start dominating other teams and move up in the polls. And if my word isn't good enough for you, find President Mobley and ask him.
