Smith Continued from Page 3 championship, Stoll in 1982 and 1983 and Andaya in 1987. Or, the complex could be named for a productive and influential coach, much like Disch-Faulk Field in Austin (although, they might have to rename it Gustafson Field.) It could, perhaps, be a coach that has three nation al championships and a ca reer winning percentage of .723 to his credit. What? What was that? A&M’s already got one, you say. Well, sure enough, it does. A&M head coach Bob Brock has won three nation al championships here at A&M and has been the run ner-up twice more. His 571 wins through the 1993 season puts him fourth on a list of influential names that includes Shar- ron Backus of UCLA and Bill Galloway of Louisiana Tech. Brock has brought a win ning program to A&M from the start and has sustained those winning ways throughout his 12-year ca reer here. The facility that A&M built is, from appearances, first class. It should be giv en a first class name. There can be none better than Bob Brock Field. “Hey guys, let’s go down to Brock Field and see some softball.” It even sounds better. Draft Continued from Page 3 but he is excited and looking for ward to playing with the Seattle organization. “I didn’t know what to expect. I had heard everything from late first to the third or fourth round,” he said. “I hope to get the money worked out soon, so I can start pitching for either Riverside (A) or Jacksonville (AA).” Other Aggies and recruits, in- DALLAS (AP) — World Cup USA president Alan Rothenberg got his first and what he hopes will be his last look at the 6-foot fence surrounding the Cotton Bowl playing field on Monday. Rothenberg used his visit to Dallas as part of his ongoing tour of the nine venues hosting the soccer tournament to contin ue pleading with city officials to tear down the chain-link barrier. “We think it gives the ab solute wrong message to fans and the international communi ty about the city, the country and the sport,” Rothenberg said. Game organizers and city offi cials worked out a deal last week to remove the fence from the west side of the stadium, allow ing unobstructed shots for televi sion cameras and clear sightlines for fans in the front 10 or so rows. With plans for half the fence to come down later this week, Rothenberg and crew are trying to convince the city to go ahead and take down the entire fence. eluding Robert Harris and Lee Fedora, were expecting to be drafted. Their status is un known because Major League Baseball does not release the picks of the later rounds until about a week after the first round, said Alan Cannon, the sports information director at Texas A&M. Johnson said losing so many players is part of collegiate base ball. He said he knew going in that this year’s junior class was big and that he would have to replace some people. Recruiting high-school kids “We’re pleased, very pleased, at the progress that’s been made,” Rothenberg said. “But being as persistent as we are, we’re going to still push for more. We won’t be happy until it’s completed.” who are eligible for the draft is also a challenge, he said. “Baseball is the hardest sport to recruit,” he said. “You try to get kids who are interested in an education, but then when they get drafted and have that bonus money in front of them, sometimes their priorities change.” Johnson said the draft is something college coaches have to deal with. “It’s a shaky thing,” he said, “We know going in every year that well have to deal with loss- Rothenberg and others met with city officials Monday and vow to continue fighting as long as possible. The first game in Dallas is June 17 between Spain and South Korea. “The fact that they’re still willing to talk about it encour ages us that they’re minds are at least a little open,” Rothenberg said. As part of last week’s deal, World Cup USA will put a pro tective tarp over several sections of seats and will enhance on-field security. The west side was chosen be cause of television and after sur veying the profile of tickethold ers in that area, said Dallas venue executive director Bill Stroube. Other venues with fences are Stanford Stadium, which has a permanent one, and at RFK Sta dium in Washington. Although temporary, the RFK fence is s« feet below the lowest row of seats, thus making it less of a hindrance. es. World Cup president visits Dallas Expos down Alou drives in career-high five runs MONTREAL (AP) — Moises Alou hit two homers and drove in a career-high five runs Mon day night to lead the Montreal Expos to their fifth straight win, 10-5 over the Houston As tros. Wil Cordero added a two- run homer for the Expos in the sixth inning when they scored five runs and took a 10-3 lead. Alou hit a two-run homer in the third inning off Greg Swindell (5-2), and added a three-run shot, his seventh, in the sixth off Tom Edens. Butch Henry (3-0) allowed three runs and seven hits over six-plus innings for the win. Mike Lansing went 3-for-5 and scored twice for Montreal. Tony Eusibeo and Kevin Caminiti each had three hits and two RBIs for Houston.

Perez thinks of the visitor center as the liaison between prospective students, their families and Texas A&M. Thirty-five visitor center student employees welcome close to 10,000 potential Aggies each year by setting up cam pus tours and appointments with various academic areas and counseling services, she said. “Hopefully, we let visitors see what A&M is really all about,” she said. Despite her current decision to go back to school, Perez said she never had a desire to at tend college before. “I didn’t prepare for college at all in high school,” she said. “But then I started working on campus 16 years ago and just decided to take advantage of the opportunity and go to school.” Along with going to school and working full-time, Perez is the mother of two girls — 10- year-old Danielle and seven- year-old Ashley. Her husband Larry gradu ated in May with a degree in agricultural development. A typical day for Perez in volves a 7 a.m. drive from Madisonville to campus. She works at the visitor center, goes to class and then back to work. Afterward, she manages to spare time as head coach of Danielle’s softball team. Amy Reeves, a senior ele mentary education major and employee of the visitor center, said she regards Perez as a mother and a boss. “Going to work is like going home,” Reeves said. “Whenev er something bad happens to me, I just come here.” Brian Pinto, Perez’s cowork er and a graduate student in tax and accounting, said she should be admired for all she does. “Anyone who can juggle motherhood, school, being a good wife, coaching her daugh ter’s softball team and running a visitor center which has sev eral thousand people come through a year, is to be ad mired,” he said. Perez said the only advice she can give to incoming fresh men is the same advice she gave her Fish Camp. “If you start something, fin ish it, regardless of what it is and regardless of how long it takes you,” she said. “Just do the best you can.” Tuesday TAMU Student Chapter of Society of Conservation Biology: general meeting, new graduate and undergraduate students welcome, room 213 Nagle meeting at 5:30 P.M.
