The A&M chapter of Ducks Unlimited will host their annual banquet on November 19 at the Knights of Columbus hall located on Palasota Drive in Bryan. Tickets are $35 and will include dinner, refreshments and a hat. "The banquet is the chapter's annual fund-raising event with proceeds from ticket sales, raffles and an auction going towards DU wetlands projects in the United States, Canada, and Mexico," chapter presi dent Jeff Bauknight said. The chapter has seen some hard times since it's beginning in 1987. "We weren't very organized the first couple of n i Real Estate [ tion (REDA): Silvers, and S tial redevelof Building at 7:C A&M Cyclin ing and team ] p.m. in the Zi information a years and, as a result, we experienced a over rate among committee members/' said.

Ben Bailey, area director for DU and coir chairman for the Brazos Valley chapter,set A&M chapter as a little brother. "We're willing to help them out in anywj can," Bailey said. "Last year we took therein helped the chapter get back on its feet. Hi we've pushed them back out.

"He calls and makes me feel comfortable and gives me advice." Both Venetoulias and Bennett said they often feel immense pressure during the game be cause their kicking duties single them out. Venetoulias said his pregame jitters are consumed by his confi dence in his abilities. "Before the kick, my heart is pounding and I feel like I'm about to faint," Venetoulias said. "It's kind of like showing off, but not in a bad way. It's like you know you can do it and you have something to prove." Bennett said he tries not to al low nervousness to hinder a once-in-a lifetime opportunity. "It's one of those things where you get one shot and you have to make it coGTit," he said. "As a walk-on, you've been on the outside looking in. When you finally get on the inside and in a starting position, you really take pride in being in there be cause there's a lot of other peo ple who could be there instead." Slocum said that both players are not only physically capable of being top kickers, but are al ways mentally prepared to han dle making mistakes. "They're really out on an is land when they miss," Slocum said. "But it takes a special per son to cope with that. "At Baylor, Terry missed the first field goal, then came back and kicked one at the end of the first half, a 46-yarder, that was critical to our momentum in the game. "At Oklahoma, we had a punt blocked and the next punt (by Bennett) was about 55 yards." Because Slocum's coaching re sponsibilities are divided among different areas of the team, the kickers are usually on their own at practice, which calls for a little self-policing. "Being out there, we could probably play cards, suntan or we could do whatever we want because nobody knows (what we're doing)," Venetoulias said. "We've had people before (walk- ons) who left to go to Whataburger or something. Native Amei tion: general r wow etiquette er.

With a little over a month remaining in the regular season, the Jays acquired pitching ace David Cone from the New York Mets. Both were instrumental in helping the Jays win their first ever World Series crown. This season, the Jays again kept their formu la of success. After re leasing Winfield, Toronto acquired the services of Paul Molitor and Dave Stewart. The questions about the age of these two players was very much a con cern, hut the Jays gam bled and might be hold ing the lucky hand be cause of it. Molitor finished in the top three of batting average this season and is on fire in the post season, hitting a robust .583 through Wednes day night's play. When the trading deadline rolled around, the Blue Jays once again acquired a player who could help them in their attempted title run, out fielder Rickey Hender son. Henderson, who is arguably the best lead- off hitter baseball has ever seen, has acted as an offensive catalyst for the Jays. He has solidi fied their battling line up and made it hard for pitchers to pitch around the Jays big-bruisers in the middle of the line- on the Apoll p.m. in 301/ ation call E Society of V al meeting v Hewlett Pac Zachry.
