Page 6 Tubularman JLiON Thl,rsda >'‘ June 16, 19 94 By Boomer Cardinals R. Smith Our There By JD Athletes Continued from Page 1 athletes graduate,” he said. Mooney said the Center for Athletic Academic Affairs closely monitors A&M athletes’ academics. The center begins evaluating athletes who may be recruited by A&M while they are still in high school, he said. “We talk to their high school counselors to find out what kind of student they are,” he said. “If a student has a learning disability, we put him in contact with someone who can help. “We take into consideration not only their ath letic performance, but their academic performance as well.” Duke University led the nation with a 95.7 per cent athlete graduation rate. A&M’s rate of 53 percent beat the University of Texas by 2 percent, but is still below the national average of 59.1 percent. Mooney said it is not accurate to compare grad uation rates between schools because other schools require fewer hours for degrees. There is also a discrepancy with the way each university handles repeated classes. A&M participates in the National Consortium for Academics in Sports that provides one addition al year of financial aid to athletes if they perform 10 hours of community service per week while at tending school. David Batson, athletic compliance education co ordinator, said the purpose of the consortium is to encourage athletes to complete their degrees even if their athletic scholarships have expired. “If you can help someone graduate,” he said, “you are doing the right thing.” Rockets Continued from Page 1 Unlike Game 3, when Hous ton bolted to an 11-2 lead, New York was ready from Wednes day’s opening tap. Ewing won that, and the Knicks contested every shot and scored the first seven points. The Rockets couldn’t have started much worse if they did n’t show up. At times, it seemed like they hadn’t. They certainly were there in the third quarter when a 14-1 surge put them ahead 56-50. Then the Knicks, chastised by Riley for their lack of aggressive ness in Game 3, were flying all over the court, chasing re bounds, diving after loose balls and racing to guard their men. It was only the 10th time in the last 30 finals game that a home team won. If the Knicks do it again Friday night, they’ll be a win away from their first title in 21 years. That would give their city a rare double — NBA and NHL ti tles in the same year. The New York Rangers, who stage their victory parade hours before Fri day’s game, ended a 54-year championship drought in the same building Tuesday night. At halftime, the Rangers’ Mark Messier marched to center court hoisting the Stanley Cup. A fan raised a sign, saying, “Thank you Rangers. The Knicks are next.” The following incidents were reported to University Police Department between June 4 and June 9: Burglary of Building 6/7 - Langford Architecture Center - A Sony laser disc video recorder, Model 2000, a Panasonic VCR, Model 1960, and a Sony High 8, Model EVS-900 were stolen from a fourth floor room. 6/8 - Agriculture Building - A Dell System laptop computer with leather carrying case, computer mouse, electrical cords and battery were stolen from a first floor room. 6/8 - Gabbard Road - A storage shed was entered and an unknown quantity of material was removed.
