But sometimes names mean more than a way to classify something. They can take on a life and a personality of their own. A name can help define a place and make it unique. Ebbotts Field, Yankee Stadium, Fenway Park. Those baseball parks all have a unique persona that were defined by the players, coaches and fans that graced their surface. Their names live on. However, modern day stadium makers have come up with such brilliant names as the Ballpark in Arlington and the Lady Aggie Soft- ball Complex. The Lady Aggie Softball Com plex. Doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue, does it? “Hey guys, let’s go over to the Lady Aggie Softball Complex to watch the game.” No, it just doesn’t work. What you need is a name that is short and that calls up an image of some thing hallowed and special. That’s why A&M needs a new name for the softball complex. It could be named after a great player, like Pat Olsen Field is now. In that case the complex might be named Lori Stoll Field or Shawn Andaya Park. Stoll was a four time All-American and is a member of the Texas A&M Hall of Fame. Andaya was a three-time All-Amer ican and is currently an assistant coach for A&M. Both served on A&M teams that brought home a national Please see Smith/Page 4 A&M pitchers taken in baseball draft Juniors Clemons and Moore picked by Chicago White Sox, Seattle Mariners By Brian Coats The Battalion Texas A&M head baseball coach Mark Johnson characterized the first two rounds of last week’s Major League Baseball amateur draft as “interesting.” “From what I was hearing before the draft from scouts, everyone thought it (the draft) would turn out different than it did,” he said. Johnson said one of the biggest sur prises was Mark Farris, a two-sport star from Angleton, being drafted 11th overall by the Pittsburgh Pirates. Far ris was recruited and has signed on to play both football and baseball at A&M. Now there is a chance Farris won’t come to A&M. “It doesn’t look good with Farris,” Johnson said. “The Pirates would not have used a pick that high if they did not expect him to sign. We’ll have to wait and see what happens.” The Chicago White Sox used the 32nd overall pick to select A&M junior Chris Clemons. There had been specu lation that the Colorado Rockies would use the seventh pick to take the hard- throwing right-hander. However, they chose Doug Million from Sarasota High School in Florida instead.

Trey Moore, an All-American his sophomore year, was taken with the 14th pick of the second round by the Seattle Mariners.

Olajuwon and the Houston Rockets will meet Ewing and the New York Knicks in Game 1 of the NBA Finals on Wednesday night, 10 years after Olaju won and Ewing played for Houston and Georgetown for the NCAA champi onship. Georgetown won 84-75. “It’s been so long ago I don’t remem ber much. I know we lost,” Olajuwon said Monday as the Rockets resumed workouts in The Summit. “But that’s the beauty of the NBA. You have many chances. That was a different league and a different time. I’ve never won a cham pionship and now I have the chance.” The Knicks ended a grueling seven- game Eastern Conference series with In diana with a 94-90 victory on Sunday night to set up the return engagement of the former college rivals. The Olajuwon-Ewing matchup will be a central feature of the best-of-7 series. Olajuwon has been more successful against Ewing in the pros. The Rockets have a 10-6 record in the 16 games Ew ing and Olajuwon have played. Olaju won has averaged 26.1 points, 3.1 blocks and 13.8 rebounds in those games com pared with Ewing’s 21.9 points, 2.2 blocks and 9.4 rebounds. Johnson to stay with Baylor hoops, says no to CBA WACO, Texas (AP) — After meeting three times with the Oklahoma City Cav alry, Baylor basketball coach Darrel Johnson has decided he won’t be leaving for the CBA. Johnson met with the Cavalry as Bay lor president Herbert Reynolds an nounced that a Southwest Conference in vestigation had uncovered NCAA viola tions. “While I cannot comment specifically on the investigation of our program, T have a clear conscience regarding my per sonal involvement in the alleged infrac tions as I have never knowingly, willfully or intentionally violated NCAA or confer ence rules,” Johnson said Monday. “As the head coach responsible for the men’s basketball program, I am deeply regretful that even the appearance of im propriety would exist and for any embar rassment caused (to) Baylor University and President Herbert H. Reynolds.” Cavalry president Chip Land had met three times with Johnson and also sub mitted a contract for Johnson’s lawyer. Published reports this month had de tailed the contract proposal and timing of the offer. “I have the highest respect and admi ration for owner Chip Land and the en tire Cavalry organization,” said Johnson. “However, I came to Baylor two years ago intending to remain here for the rest of my career, investing my life in Baylor University.” He said he at least intended to fulfill the terms of his five-year contract with Baylor. Reynolds reviewed the SWC’s 544- page report, which he said last week con tained 28 allegations. But Reynolds didn’t say how many of them alleged violations of NCAA rules. Michael Glazier, a special investigator, had reported findings to the conference. “Although I do not know the specifics of Michael Glazier’s report, nor do I know what action may be taken by the NCAA, I believe that we can work through what ever penalties may be imposed,” said Johnson. The SWC investigation, which began in November, included allegations about forward Jerome Lambert, college basket ball’s leading rebounder last season. The inquiry had also focused on four junior- college players who transferred to Baylor last fall. DANCE Beginning Country & Western Dance Mon. June 6, 13. 20, 27 6-7:15pm Mon.
