Phillies' brash I Another day, another win for A&M soccer team
style wins the
hearts of fans
in Mi
ROY L.
CLAY
Sportswriter
L et's give
t h e
Philadel
phia Phillies a
round of ap
plause. De
spite an appar
ent lack of ath
letic ability,
the boys from
the town of
brotherly love
managed to
win their divi
sion, the Na
tional League
pennant and
then lose in the
sixth game of
the World Series to a great Toronto
Blue Jays team.
However, many baseball fans have
asked how in the world a bunch of to
bacco-chewing, large-waisted, long
haired hooligans ever got that far m
the first place.
Major League Baseball is supposed
to be evolving into a game of refine
ment where the players are re
spectable athletes - clean and intellec
tual. Right?
Well, along came the Phillies who
shocked the faint-hearted with gar
gantuan wads of tobacco, ripped
pants, unshaven jowls and unceasing,
inane humor. It appeared that they
had set baseball back about two
decades.
The '93 version of the Phillies
could have been called a lot of things;
however, model athletes is not among
the descriptions that come to mind.
Before the game, they sat in the
dugout for hours smoking cigarettes

A&M freshman midfielder Jamie Csizmadia wards off a Hilltoppers' defender as they race for the ball. The Aggies are now 11 -3-
1 in the season. A&M will face New Mexico in their first game of the Aggieland Invitational 3:30 this Friday at Old Tiger Field.
Csizmadia, Koop
take Aggies to 4-1
win over Hilltoppers
By Jose de Jesus Ortiz
The Battalion
Texas A&M Lady Aggie soccer team
dominated the St. Edwards Hilltoppers
for the second time this season, scoring 4-
1 Monday at Old Tiger Stadium and im
proving their record to 11-3-1.
A&M's Jamie Csizmadia and Kristen
Koop lead the attack on the Hilltoppers
(6-8) as they delivered two goals each.
But head coach Gerald Guerrieri said he
was pleased with the overall team effort.
"The girls are trying hard to develop
quality goals," he said, "and all of our
goals were quality goals."
Csizmadia scored the first goal 27 min
utes into the game, drilling a free kick
past the outstretched arms of the Hilltop
pers goalkeeper Monica Egelhof and
making the Hilltoppers pay for fouling
her.
Csizmadia, who recently had a six-
game scoring streak snapped at SMU and
leads A&M in scoring with 25 points, said
that future opponents might be better
served if they do not upset the freshman
forward.
"I was getting hacked off because.the
girl defending me kept pulling my shirt,"
Csizmadia said. "So I said, I think I'll
score this one."
Shortly after entering the game, Koop
broke loose from her defender and blast
ed the ball in the net for the Lady Aggies'
second goal.
"Coming off the bench, I want to play
with high intensity and be aggressive,"
Koop said. "I probably don't shoot as
much as I should, but-I just want to give
100 percent."
For the second game in a row, junior
defender Kristi Dillinger drew the Lady
Aggies' opponent's best offensive player.

Final hearing tonight for $1 million C.S. bikeways
Vote today at Freebirds World Burrito for the C.S. Bikeway Master Plan
By Kevin Cochran

On October 28, the College
Station City Council will vote on
the Bikeway Master Plan
immediately following a public
hearing at City Hall Council
Chambers beginning at 7 p.m.
Freebirds World Burrito and the
Texas Bicycle Coalition will make
statements and present lists of
names of those who support
bikeways in C.S. Our goal is
twofold: to provide the City
Council with 2,000 or more
signatures and to have at least 50
supporters attend the hearing.
By adopting the Bikeway Master
Plan designed by city transpor
tation officials. College Station will
be entitled to apply for more
than $1 million in federal funding
for bikeways. Upon funding, the
city will develop a continuous loop
of bike lanes, routes, and paths
linking the University with
residential, commercial, and
entertainment areas, Wolf Pen
Creek ampitheater complex, and
local schools.
Why is Freebirds taking such an
active stance on this particular
issue? In addition to the need for
business environmental and social
responsibility, and the chance to
enhance life for A&M students, the
two-restaurant chain was founded
in Isla Vista, California (adjacent to
U.C. Santa Barbara), where 80% of
students use bicycles as their
primary means of transportation.
The experience of working in a
bike town has helped Freebirds
people understand the positive
effects of using bicycles in place of
automobiles. In fact, a bike-thru
window will be introduced soon at
Freebirds in California.
Driving motor vehicles creates
more air pollution than any other
human activity. Thirteen-trillion
cubic yards of motor vehicle
exhaust is annually thrust into the
air we breathe, ultimately
poisoning our crops, destroying
our forests, and harming us
humans. For every gallon of

gasoline our automobiles burn,
twenty pounds of carbon dioxide
is spewed into the air, along with
nitrogen oxide, carbon monoxide,
hydrocarbons and others.
Motor vehicle pollution is so
catastrophic in cities such as Rome,
Athens, Mexico City, Sao Paulo,
and Budapest, that bans on
operating motor vehicles are
commonplace. Clearly something
is wrong when two-thirds of the
land area of Los Angeles is
dedicated to roadways and
parking.
Here in Texas, we have our own
problems: the highest emissions of
nitrogen oxides in the country at
over two times the California
levels (the next highest state).
Further, Houston, Dallas/Fort
Worth, Beaumont/Port Arthur, and
El Paso have harmful motor
vehicle ozone emission levels, and

Christi are in danger of being
added to the list. Could College
Station be next?
We must look beyond the
entrenched modes of trans
portation and endorse alternative
transport systems, like bikeways,
that provide for easy and safe
mobility, while not harming our
environment or sapping our
economy. City engineers have to
design for shared roadways, and
both motorists and bicyclists must
learn to respect each other.
Another reason to endorse
bikeways is the concern for safety.
Every year in this country
approximately one-half million
people are admitted to a hospital
emergency room and over 1,000
people die due to bicycle-related
accidents. In Texas, there are at
least 50 bicycle fatalities per year.
Considering the health and
fitness benefits of bicycling, once
bicycle travel is made safer and
more efficient with the develop
ment of planned bikeways, we can
all breathe a little easier. So vote
w today at Freebirds World Burrito
for the C.S. Bikeway Master Plan.
